RE: Steem Dream- Building a Crypto-Currency Mining Farm From Scratch
I've started mining with my GPU as well. I'm using Nice Hash. It mines whatever is needed at the time but you get paid in Bitcoin. Sadly I can't run it 24/7 due to the kids use that computer plus it's the wife's. So I'm like you going to earn some coin and build up using the profits. I'd love to learn where you picked up your miners and how you have it all set up.
I'm not very good at explaining the technical stuff, but I did find that the Gridseeds work best with BFG Miner 4.0 and I followed videos on YouTube about how to set them up. The miners I got on eBay and they'll mine both SHA-256 or Scrypt based coins. Just look up Gridseed and you'll find them.
Just wondering about how much you're making with the Gridseed miners each month (ballpark amount). How many of them do you have running? I'm making about $30 each month with the one video card. Trying to see what would be more cost effective. Thanks.
The difficulty of Litecoin is so high that I'm probably only gaining about $10-$15 a month with 4 of the Gridseed-5 chip miners running, depending on the price of Litecoin of course. I'm starting to think cloud mining is a lot more profitable.
