Also, I'm considering buying a contract over at Genesis Mining to mine ZCash which would save me all the hassle of setting up the rig properly, maintenance, and other factors.
You will just loose your money. Remember my words.
People never learn and buy into hype.
They somehow think paying 10 times what they should will somehow profit.
By the way, does anyone have any idea on what exchanges would ZCash be once it launches tomorrow? 
Kraken and Bittrex.Also Poloniex.
this is so i dont have to make my own wallet ...

How do I need to adapt my miner from beta to real mining? Got the ubuntu setup running that was well documented.

Does it matter if we use addnode=alphatestnet.z.cash or betatestnet.z.cash?
I hit a block on betatestnet
How are current open source GPU miners stacking up against CPU miners? For example, what kind of hashrate will a 480 or 290x do versus an i7 or i5?
Immediately stopped reading at compiling the miner with Ubunto.
Stop making coins that require all that compiling and building the miner bullshit. Not all of us are hardcore computer geeks with a shit ton of programming knowledge.
Windows exe file or not interested.
Good guide overall tho.

Crypto is geek/nerdy .. .just look around .... you're obviously in the wrong hobby..

I was asking about setup a miner on Microsoft Azure.
Nevermind ...a ll the best!
Actually, mining ZCash with the free Azure credits sounds like a great idea to me. Even though, it is not as efficient as dedicated hardware you could still make "free" ZCash with the free trial of Azure. I'm pretty curious as of what will happen once ZCash launches tomorrow in terms of interest into it, as I have the feeling that it will get enough traction for quite some time. I hope that I would be able to get some cheap ZCash before prices start to increase as this is a very promising cryptocurrency.

The guy lives up in san fran so when he wakes up mainnet will start.
If he partys all night to celebrate Zcash, it might get delayed a bit

alcohol may change the course of history once more.
It's likely not even worth mining zcash for at least the first week, since the rewards are so low.

ZCash mining will begin tomorrow 28 : yes, but at what time ? (Universal time).
Guys, what about cloud mining for ZCash?
It could be a solution?
For example mining in Microsoft Azure (there is 150$ free credit each month)
I have (and I can setup) 5 Azure accounts and mine on those (Windows or Linux) if is profitable.

maybe NiceHash? I never used it but i think you buy hashing power directly off miners. should be better than genesis and so on. Cloud mining isn't a good option for Zcash i think:
people assume that cloud mining is dumb or a scam. but i think that it depends on what u're expecting from a coin. if u think a coin is going to rise like hell, then buy the coin. if you think the price is going to be stable and hashing power as well, then buy a contract. Price raises = more miners = less income. price stable = same miners = plausible ROI and profit. of course, nothing like hands on mining
I understand that you want to increase your number of posts but with the new rules you should be more careful.
There is a risk to be excluded anytime

then i ranted a bit about cloud mining contracts, which wasn't really related. but it was a bonus. I dont need to increase my post count lol. i rly dont care.
You can rent the hash from the Nichhash. So it can be treated as the cloud mining. It is much cheaper than sites like Genesis mining.
Azure and any other cloud platform is not very good choice, since all vm environments have some memory overhead. I guess speed would be at least 2x lower vs dedicated hardware.
You are right, but since it is free, I think I can try it.
