Topic: Who is mining right now? (Read 695 times)

If you connect your bicycle to some agregat and produce your own electricity while pedaling it you can achieve that! Printing your coins for free and saving your money for dietary products!

Mining is losing its popularity. Although in Iran, for example, the mining was recognized as a separate industry, and after that the cost of bitcoin in the country jumped to $ 24,000 

Yes, I think about it last days. But don't know which coin with big potential I can mine on GPUs right now. Maybe you can give some advices or anybody.

Mining is useless now, but you mine some new coin.

I'm very interested in mining. It's like having a printing press that prints you coins. Though not as much as I would like, but if the coins to be stored and wait until the price will grow, then you can earn.

Same goes with my RX480 rigs too which I had sold most of them and keep 1 for my gaming rig.I cant afford to continue if you do look your expense with a very very small profit for month.


Just a normal thing for you to react where if it turns out for you not to be profitable.Then why continue?

Today I was finally stopped my ferm. With 5 video cards Nvidia GeFrorce GTX 1060 gaming X 6gb it only 5$ monthly profit 
So it's over

in my country there are many small miners who close their mines because of the huge maintenance and electricity costs, while the price of crypto sedan mining products goes down

Could you please advice, how much money are you spending each month on electricity? And how much money you had invested in the hardware to start mining?

mining sucks right now . id rather do trading and investing than running a miner because it is not really profitable anymore . i will only pay more for the electric consumption rather than earing a few bucks .

what i didnt understand is why there are still die hard people who try to enter the mining scene ? for me , i think mining is only for educational purpose and cant bring any good benifits for you and for the environment .


doing bounty and other activity do also consumes an electricity but it is not big as when compared to when you are using a hardware mining since their wattage is high . doing bounty is also risky than mining because you arent sure if you will get paid or not .

Although the exchange rate has declined, the charm of Bitcon as a virtual currency is still brilliant.
Not to mention the existence of virtual currencies other than Bitcoin such as Ethereum, Litecoin, or Dash.
Other virtual currencies are Namecoin, Swiftcoin, Dogecoin, Emercoin, Gridcoin, Omni, Primecoin, Ripple, Burstcoin, MazaCoin, Monero, NEM, Nxt, PotCoin, Synereo AMP, Titcoin, VertCoin, Ethereum Classic, IOTA, SixEleven, Decred, ZCash , ARK Ecosystem, Bitcoin Cash, and Ubiq.
Uniquely, as a virtual invisible currency, various types of currencies can be mined by anyone.

I think that mining is very profitable, as before. Just sell their coins do not need now, but when the new pump starts.

You mean the cloudmining or mining pool site. We will be find the lose only if you invested on mining field. There is no profit on investing mining field. I was looking to invest on Bitcoin and altcoins mining once.
But nowadays I really feel bad and moved away from mining only few rigs going vfor mining works.

What is the best mining site today?

In my life as a crypto user, investor, and trader, I don't have any experience on doing cryptocurrency mining. I prefer to do bounty campaigns, joining airdrops, and trading cryptos than doing it because there are some mining sites who don't pay you and there are some that needs investments in order for you to get the coins you had mined. This is just my speculations ! 

Recently I have mined Litecoin and Monero. And I get a profit from the mining. But mining is very difficult now because mining must use a rig to mine. You cannot do mining with an ordinary personal computer because it will make your personal computer die.

Thinking about mining Gladius (GLA).
Sounds profitable, its not processing power intensive, but internet upload speed intensive!

now mining is so bad choice, becouse fee is more then income.

I am mining Ethereum with my gtx1060 rig. It is not very profitable right now but I can mine and hold them. I believe Ethereum's price will increase in near future.

We are set-up a mining rig through a friend but we couldn't mine anything because he complained bitterly about the increase in mining difficulty. 

Mining is a way to make a steady profit, but now that the number and price of Bitcoin is decreasing, the risk of mining is increasing!

I'm certainly not a trader, but I can answer this question from the height of experience ... What you need to sell if the project you do not relate to the soul, I keep a couple of tokens that have fallen by almost 80% but the belief in them and the project is strong)

I think minners are still sleeping for the time being, and whether they will be active again when. because with hashrate as it is now, it is not balanced with prices on the market. if you still add to the situation as it is now, then maybe he just likes it, because profit is just a hoax

Yes...I was mining HOLD coin from 4 months ago, and now it only values 10% price when I bought it.
I think you should choose 1 good coin then focus on it.

I think being a miner is now the same as suicide, with very high hashrate and low prices, it's really ridiculous if you still want to do it. Will you be able to get profit in this situation?

cryptominerworld Is a new idle game to hit the blockchain. So far The only blockchain games iv been making eth on is idle games.
This one has fun and ridiculous looking characters and the setup for payouts is cool and fun to.

PRE LAUNCH SALES - every 24 hours the pre launch sale goes down 1% Id recommend getting the 5pack of gems or the 10pack with the geode. You get 5 plots of "FOUNDERS" land with a order of 5 and 11 lots of land for 10pack order. Im told land is going to be .02eth each on launch day and with the crypto market starting to come up that could get pricey.

2000 ETHER! Find gold, artifacts, prizes, and more to sell with others at the marketplace. Dig deep enough and discover rare keys, capable of opening Monthly Ether Chests or even the World Chest worth over 2000 Ether!

Buying and selling of land and items will be a thing, Grow your gems to be stronger and mine faster.

Their are some cool concepts this dapp that i have not seen in others. Monthly bonus chest like a lotto,
Once a world has been all mined up it dies and a new world starts, GEMS ARE KEPT FROM WORLD TO WORLD,
Every gem color correlates to a birth month so that month that color gem gets a mining boost.

I have stopped mining since May 2018 because coin prices have fallen and if I move forward it only produces a break-even point where I have to spend all the costs on mining but the results are only enough to pay for it

Yes, at present, it is unlikely that big coins will be available in the market because most of them are low value and very difficult. If I continue to mine, I think that miners should look for coins that have the potential to grow in the future and are now cheap but difficult to exploit.

With each passing day, there are fewer private traders, and more are becoming large companies that do this.

Those who understand all the perspectives of mining in the future are mining right now as well. Because they don't take into account the price of crypto at the moment but just look at the bigger picture knowing that maximum in one year from now bitcoin and other cryptos will reach the new highs))

Everybody is in the game right now. This makes it hard to make profits unless you have tens of thousands of dollars of setups. I think it's better to speculate or hodl rather than mine today.. Many coins mined die and you are left with huge bags, etc. Fake devs come in and copy paste coins from all algorithms, start a discord, own mining pool, premine and dump on poor people whenever their coins hit an obscure low-vol exchange. Rinse and repeat. 
Another thing not frequently mentioned is the very high number of bag holders from swaps, because its hard to follow ALL coins discords/telegram/medium/twitter to catch swap dates.
All these factors make it very hard to get a good coin. You are better of buying a coin or token that shows promise, like Elastos or Eterbase and watch the price go up.

The competition is big, small ones sell their equipment as they are overshadowed by larger companies.

I have friends who are mining bitcoin and eth. They say they still have enough money to continue their work.
Although their profits are less, there is still hope in their work so they will continue

I have not had a good experience with mining and this is the reason I try to stay as far as possible from mining. It might be working for others but for me, it is not an option of consideration for now.

I read a lot of research and the main idea they have that today it is profitable to engage in mining only participate in the pool or having a large capital to invest in equipment.

I'd still prefer doing bounties than mining because of the electricity consumption that increases whenever you mine using GPUs or mining hardwares. I think it is more practical to invest or do bounties at this point.

How I wish to be a miner but they say it's no longer profitable and it all started when the hype of all time high is there and maybe people took the chance of becoming a miner.

But as the time passes, correction comes and price of altcoins that they have been mining decrease as well but the quantity of the coin they mine has increased. Strategy in mining is like in holding, you can hold for a very long time and wait until the value of your token increases but you have to wait and be patient during the low days.

Large industrial miners are gaining momentum, and private sell their equipment, unable to withstand competition.

with this market situation, I think that is the right decision, the last few months the market has not shown good performance, but the need to mine is always high, including the cost of electricity and tools for mining.

I think it is time for coins to change from proof of work to proof of stake. Some new coins are doing it actually.

My friend was mining some altcoins but he said it is not profitable any more. But they may be mining for the future, when they will do 5x for example just a hope.
But if no one does mining, who is going to verify the transactions, who will keep the chain? We need them right now, and they need to earn something to continue doing it.

Many of my friends around me have given up on mining because all the price of coins has fallen so badly, and the amount of bitcoin that can be mined is now decreasing!

I have a farm for the etherium mining. However, because of the price drop, I had to turn it off indefinitely. Although I am in a region where electricity is not expensive, it is still not profitable to mine now. We will wait for the price to rise.

I ask the same question. I dont have acquaintances who mines these days but I heard that it's too hard right now.

I'm mining few coins using my laptop. But profits are very less. I think mining from CPU is waste of time. Try to mine from a GPU or mining machine.

Mining top coins now to hard and low profits.
But little altcoins dont lose interesting. And when market will be a bul run you can take a profit.

Are you looking for effective decisions how to make an employment process easier and faster? TalentSnap saved thousands of dollars and hundreds of man-hours! It is a fantastic platform to make hiring automated

I have 2 Th/s Bitcoin mining cloud contract.. But still I could not able to cover my investment.. Because Bitcoin mining difficulty is very high now.. Profits are getting low daily.. So, I'm not going to recommend Bitcoin mining to any one now..

I think only miners whom still believe that crypto market will recover very soon keep mining cryptocurrency at the moment . For now, seem like it's impossible to get profit from mining when crypto market is being in downward trend like this if miner don't have much TH/s . A lot of miners that I know are trying to sell all their GPU and S9miner at the moment. )

All of you who are leaving mining and selling out the gear, invest that money in some coins and we all are gonna be much better! 

Big companies and for those miners who do reside into a place where electricity cost is cheap and with sufficient amount of miners to operate on and I'm sure they are the ones who do operate and still mining nowadays because no one would push up transactions if there are no miners. The thing or the fact small scale miners will really be on majorly affected with this market decline together with the spike up of mining difficulty.

I dont have such acquintances. They were mining more than a half of a year but u know what's going on wih market mood and PC video equipment prices.

How can you conclude that there is no profit ? My friends are still minning and still profitable. The problem is that the market is losing market share will be lower than normal only

now there are a lot of developments related to new cooling systems and the most powerful production machines) the market will not stand still

I think the risk of mining is increasing now, and as the number of bitcoins that can be tapped is reduced, the difficulty of mining is increasing, and the price of bitcoin in the market is also decreasing!

I am still mining (one rig out of four) and it is not very profitable. I break even or make a slight profit and hold the coins for the future. I believe most quality coins, especially BTC, will go up in value again. Then my mining now would become very profitable at a later date. The other rigs were broken down and I am selling the GPUs, motherboards, power supplies, etc.

I think that will still be profitable from mining, otherwise people will abandon it. Take a look at Bitmain China, which revealed higher profits than the Nvidia US GPU in 2017 and is currently operating well.

The dramatic decline in the cryptocurrency resulted in declining mining income. In my country there are many Bitcoin mining farms that are on hiatus due to losses from difficult mining and bitcoin prices. I hope that this period will soon be over so that investors can profit from the market.

I think mining with small setup is not benefitable now.

To date, those who are interested in doing this are engaged in this kind of craft. This can be both large corporations and ordinary users.

Which coin you mining this time?

Scroll at the bottom of this thread and on the left side there's the word Move Topic, press it and do the rest.

LOL. I think almost miners have quitted crypto mining already ). At the moment, it's impossible to get money by mining while crypto market keep falling like this. In my country, I can see so many guys are trying to sell S9 and GPU. LOL. They don't wanna waste their time in mining anymore cause they can get profit from it at the moment.

people remain mining, the main reason is following:
1. they considering the mining is their job. If they don't mining, they will be lost.
2. the mining machine don't have the space time. If the mining machine is stop. That's wrost the money for the mininer.
3. The mininer have the beliving. they belive the coin will rising up again. I am also have this thought.

Mining is very dangerous now, unless they joined the market early last year, because the current miners have started to lose money because of the very high hash value of Bitcoin!

I'm not sure it's profitable to mine now. The yield fell sharply but the price of electricity is the same as before.

I do not understand people who say that mining is not profitable. Don't you understand that a miner can't use a holding?  I think mining is very profitable as it used to. Simply sell their coin need not now and when will begin a new pump. But I mean professionals and not those who are engaged in mining at home.

Digging bitcoin are the miners they are having the investment and take the time involved to dig the bitcoins as if they dig a bitcoin they can get bonuses after digging the coin.

From this we can conclude that miners are those who dump all their coins so they can pay electric bills. It makes sense, they are fighting for their life, especially those who came in the game last year when equipment was expensive and potential profit huge.

I am getting free electricity here so still I mine with the 2 rigs I own in my room. People whoever mining with the farm and paying electricity will be pay the excess money than they get as a income now. They will be force to exchange their coins for sure.
Finally result will be loose only no profit at all buddy, kindly ignore mining this time and invest on some altcoins which has potential to grow more. So the profit better than mining will be reach to you.

I think the miner in China still mining BTC right now because they want to and they have to do it. BTC is still the best coin for mining with them. Although they could mining altcoins but I don't think people spent alot of money for buying hardware to mining BTC want to change to altcoins.

I think that this is the best time for mining. The level of difficulty of mining is considerably reduced.

Best way to mining is altcoins because of now days we can not mining btc due to high hashrate, so we get good profit from the alt coins mining like eth, etc, zcash, and more.

now the cost of electricity is very high in my country, and for the mining community it is difficult to get profits from mining.

Anyone can dig up a mine if they have the equipment for a while and moreover they love the digital world as well as they have the time to participate in mining and they can be men or women who have jobs or are part time they can participate in mining

anyone can mine and still not mine at all

According to the old mansion has become much more costly now it is hard to earn it for those who do not approach mining everybody more focused on buying.

I am not quite sure how to move the question there

Same people have free electricity that's why they will use mining for a long time. But even you have paid electricity mining still profitable. Litlle profit of course but it is.

Ask this on Mining (Altcoins) or you can move this thread there.

I ask the same question. I dont have acquaintances who mines these days but I heard that it's too hard right now.

Yeh, I also used to mine in my house. I've sold them at the end of winter because of this. I was lucky I've sold them at a good price

People are still mining because:

1. Without mining, there won't be any new 'issued' coins that use Proof-of-Work consensus such as Bitcoin;
2. It is still profitable. Large mining farms have already paid their worth during cryptocurrencies bubble. Now, miners who own those farms are only paying for maintenance and electricity (a few miners even produce their own electricity);
3. People who started mining recently and put a hefty initial investment, and want to break even;
4. Companies that are based on mining cryptocurrencies.

Although I have a high electricity price per KWH, I used to mine, but I stopped since the beginning of summer because when I turn that GPU on for 24 hours, I feel like I am in a furnace being cooked slowly.  

I was mining when it was profitable but I've sold it during winter. I am just wondering why people ares till mining...

Mr. or Ms. OP I would like to first say that I am not miner and not mining right now and not into it "yet" but I had studied the basic how mining works.

So, your a newbie? just guessing.

Now I would say that mining it not yet good right now. When the market it low your dead but when it is high your good. Still if your interpretation of earning when the market is low you will not earn daily with good amount of price you are wrong, you just need to hold it and wait for the price to get up so the value will rise.

I'm out of the mining 4 months now. I could make some more profit then, but I decided to sell my rigs, and I got much better price than I could get now. Im also interested is there any profit at all in mining (Im interested to know about altcoin mining eth, etc, zcash)

Hi!

I have a question. Who is mining right now? It is not profitable right now! But the network's hashrate is still high!
