the calculators are correct...but the input is a snapshot at that particular time...it is correct for that moment only...

I do my own difficulty and hashrate charts and projections to the future using my own discounts and assumptions...I don't use the calculator as is...it may still be garbage in garbage out but at least its my best guess

for example BTC difficulty for the last few months increases at about 5.75% average...will it go up/down/flat for 2018? it was going up because a lot of pools are expanding...it probably will stay flat for a while, then go down a bit now that people are migrating to mine BCH... so I would make up my own difficulty projections and use these instead...

I think need buy the antminer and test it in real.

imho...mining is about converting cash for extra coins and hodl for future values... e.g., i spent 1 BTC for a miner & electricity, i get back 1.2 BTC...so 20% "profit" on BTC basis...i only have 1 BTC if i buy 1 BTC and hodl...my risk is the price goes below the fiat i spent, my reward is 20% + price up...

i can't really say which is profitable and for how long...the Dash looks good NOW on calculator...i expect by December it will drop 70-80%...

Todays still can mining using RX460 4GB gpu?

mining? sure can.

profitable? no so sure

If i start with 2 or 3 gpu which model suitable?

To those of you who wants D3 for Nov 24 batch, pls pm me, Im letting a few go. We can discuss on how to deal.

About S9, yes i believe S9 is still profitable as mining BCC now is apparently way more profitable than BTC. Time will tell if BCC can continue to hold their price. If they do, BTC is going to have a problem competing for mining power against BCC!

it should eventually achieve some balance...BTC difficulty will come down...BCH will shoot up...then it depends on people looking at current $ profit or coin appreciation

I'm using the 2gb version mining cryptonight at nicehash can get average RM 2 per day but right now can get RM 3 due to xmr price hike.

Exactly, bravo, u got it.
Mine >HODL>sell higher in the futute
Or Mine >Convert BTC or other major coins, HODL

Please avoid referring Bitcoin Cash as BCC. It's BCH.
If other exchange is stupid, we don't have to follow.

BCC is Bitconnect. Period.

Yup, there is a fineline between trading/buying the coin instead of mining, I, too can't say which is more profitable, therefore I do a little bit of both. But Trading is definitely the more stressful out of the two, for me at least

May I know what are your thoughts surrounding why DASH will fall 70-80% in Dec? Is it because of dumping by miners?

Sorry bro totally my bad, was supposed to type BCH, too much coffee maybe

It was in reference to the mining calculator...% drop in output you see today

There's not enough newly mined coins to influence the market...only whales, or Koreans can do it... lol

anyone here can suggest me what coin are worth to mining now? What is good software to mining it? Thanks

My opinion is dash and buy D3.

May I know how many volts that need for D3? 120V? 240V?

aiya bos, difficult to answer.
same like u ask, what car is best right now?

i suggest u go and calculate on paper, what is your budget looks like. Then come back with better, precise questions, before we can assist you further.

220-240V? Its standard for Malaysia.
or are u asking how many Watts this will use?

amd u can try 470 or 480. but hard to find nowadays.

nvidia u can go for 1060 or 1070.

Just started to mine 3 weeks ago.. using a single GTX 1080TI.. currently mining ZCASH, not mining 24 hours, because I do game with the PC...

manage to tune the card to mine at 630 Sol/s at 150W-160W.. temp stays below 70 Celsius.. using BitFinex to trade ZCASH to BTC , then transfer BTC to Coinhako.

Pending RM208 withdraw to Maybank from CoinHako after selling my BTC.


just purchased a 1070 for RM2k.. trying to do a 2 card mining ..see how much I can make..
