Wow, thanks for the detailed info. I assume your ETH rig cost somewhere around 3k?

I actually have 3 (soon to be 4) computers running. My PC, my wife's PC (which is just all my last gen parts) and my "NAS" PC which runs Linux (which is my 2nd last gen parts).

My 5900x/3080 unit is probably somewhere in the wheelhouse of ~$4K worth of stuff (at MSRP, not including peripherals/monitors. Obv the 3080 and 5900x have "value" much higher at the moment due to the parts shortage), while the others I've gotten my money's worth out of years ago.

All the PCs are built for heavy cooling/heavy gaming/heavy audio+video creation usage, so running ETH mining in them at sustainable temps is a breeze (not including the bad cooler on the XC3 Ultra 3080, which as I noted before I replaced).

COIN has turned into a short term ####show stock so glad I bailed on that one while still in the green and used the cash for other crypto stuff.

There's probably nothing in the financial world that quite matches the euphoria you feel during a bull run in cryptocurrencies.

Anyone have any thoughts on ETC vs ETH? ETC is currently 1/10 of the price of ETH and is the same technology. Does it have an opportunity to gain the value of ETH?

Stocks in general are in the dumps, sure they spike day to day then dive again. I expect this to continue well into the summer so I'd say unless you're way way under water and want to just get out, hold and hope COIN goes back close to the IPO level. Which I think it will.

How many SafeMoon should I yolo into to get rich or be poor and not care? Feels like one of those ones where early enough adopters might do ok eventually.

It's kind of a crazy token idea. Whenever you move tokens out of your wallet you pay a 10% fee. Half of that fee is burned permanently and the other half gets distributed among all existing wallets proportional to the balance in each one. So as long as you have any you'll keep earning. It's a bnb20 token.

In the last 12 months, Tsx is up 30% the Dow is is up 40%. My stocks are on fire. Not crypto fire, but still on fire.

Old news I guess.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...o-goes-missing

One of Turkey’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges said it lacked the financial strength to continue operations, leaving hundreds of thousands of investors fearing their savings have evaporated as authorities sought to locate the company’s 27-year-old founder, who fled the country.

Losses could be as high as $2 billion, according to Haberturk newspaper, and a lawyer for the victims said the money invested by about 390,000 active users had become “irretrievable.”

ETC is a vulnerable version of the ETH protocol; specifically, the way the network is constructed makes it vulnerable to a 51% attack (which it has suffered 4 times). It's extremely unstable compared to ETH precisely because its value can be inflated or tanked by a small group of people, and the network as a transactional network is vulnerable to malfeasance.

Almost 4K, but more than that, the network difficulty that has been plaguing me for the last 2 weeks has dissolved for the time being, and im making almost .009 (~$32.5 USD) a day right now.

Anyone into NFT's? I'm having a tough time wrapping my head around the whole thing. What's the point?
