MINING POOLS 4 ALL. BURST4ALL Project Concept: Dual Low Fee Pools, a pool that is optimal for miners with less than 1tb including. Burst4All Asset ID: As Burst penetrates global markets we aim to be there with BURST4ALL a Burst Asset designed. Oct 30, 2014 - While there are ways of mining Burstcoin using PoW methods, BurstCoin is meant to be mined using a unique proof of capacity algorithm. In conclusion, if there is a significant opportunity for a person with average hardware to make a large profit, that opportunity will quickly be removed by increasing.

How do we start mining ETH or ETC with our own equipment at home today? Will you read this post because it shows how easy it is to get started mining with a small investment in equipment and the willingness to learn how to set everything up and explains what steps are needed to decide if investing in the time and equipment for mining? With the Ethereum price over $300 today and the Ethereum Classic price at $20, the opportunity to mine Ether is now extremely profitable! Even as Ethereum prepares to go to a Proof of Stake model at the end of 2017 or beginning of 2018 which will greatly reduce the possibility of making a profit mining, any mining rig built to mine Ethereum could easily be switched to start mining ETC or another coin after the switch with a huge potential to profit before! In this post or the matching video on YouTube below, see an introduction to what research and purchases are necessary to begin. While I thought mining any cryptocurrency was too technical for me, I now see getting started on a small scale is relatively straightforward with scaling up possible with confirmation the initial system is working.

The GREAT NEWS is that making a very basic and functional mining computer system can be done for less than $1,000! Once we verify it works, the motivation will come to scale up the system into one that easily can produce $200+ a day in profit with current Ethereum and ETC prices as explained in the YouTube video from today below along with in more detail in text below that. In summary, using a new or used Windows or Linux machine to begin just for mining seems ideal because this will be the only need and function of the computer. For a few hundred dollars, buying a new machine to just do mining is the most basic starting point. Next, buying a small amount of graphics cards to get started is the next step to verify the mining setup is working and to get an idea of the costs to scale. While the idea of dropping $20,000 to make a mining setup that produces $13,000 a month seems like a big risk, how about starting out with $1,000 in graphics cards to produce $600 a month to verify everything works? After confirming the setup is working, then it is logical to slowly scale up by adding more graphics cards and machines steadily over time using the profits generated as proof that more is possible with more power.

While I would not start off spending much without any proof I could actually set it up correctly, after confirmation that I could indeed build a mining machine that worked, I would be motivated to build more. The real opportunity to earn much more than $200 a day is to learn how to build mining rigs for Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies. Once we have the system down, we can just keep building more over time and then the money comes in on autopilot! This seems ideal compared to paying into a mining pool where another company is likely earning a significant share of my profits and maintains control over all of the machines.

What are the steps to start mining Ethereum or ETC? • Read an introduction to mining Ethereum at which seems to currently be the most profitable to mine today. • Read another post with a summary of all the steps. • Visit the daily profit estimate tool I used.

• Compare with ETC profit at or any other altcoin to see which is currently the most profitable to mine based on the price. After the ETH switch to PoS, mining another coin will be necessary but by then all the equipment should be paid for! • Learn about graphics cards because they are responsible for most hashing power. A list to get started is available at which will help with learning but then also show you that most of the ones already proven to work well for others are sold out! • With a few hours of research, the single best graphics card I found for the money which is actually in stock and has same day shipping for me is the EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SC GAMING, 4GB GDDR5, DX12 OSD Support (PXOC) Graphics Card 04G-P4-6253-KR on Amazon. I chose this graphics card because all the others I looked at for a better value were sold out! The EVGA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti SC has SAME DAY delivery near me with an estimated hashing power for ETH at 12 MH which equals repayment in less than 2 months at the current price for Ether!

If I was starting today this is what I would begin with by ordering 2 to 8 of these. I am not starting today because I have a trip coming up next week and am considering beginning Ethereum mining and/or being a Steemit Witness in late June 2017.

• Using a dedicated Windows or Linux desktop PC is ideal for mining because it keeps the computer free from any other slowdowns and keeps existing devices free for normal use. Fortunately buying the machine to run all the GPUs on is a small part of the total expense. Read to get a good look at the parts required for the computer. • Order the minimum initial parts to get started to build the desktop mining rig OR test this out on your existing computer if you have good enough graphics cards and want to start today! Note that in calculating the cost you will want to account for a maximum of 10 to 16 graphics cards per PC! The beauty of this system is once we get it built, we can modify it to mine whichever coins are the most profitable instead of relying on a third party to continue paying us out in whatever we started with at a fixed hashing power. Thank you for reading this and I hope you have a wonderful day!

With friends invested on Genesis Mining as well, it seems to have great terms which are ideal for making an investment easily in a small amount of time. The limitations are the long time it takes to get a return compared to making our own mining rigs plus not really owning anything. For the greatest profits, making our own mining rigs seems to be a better investment not just of the money but for the valuable learning it takes to build on our own machines which then translates to skills good for earning high dollars per hour! In summary, if we have money and just want a good return, Genesis might be the best option.

If we have a bit more time and willingness to learn plus want the highest profits and have low enough electricity costs, DIY mining might be ideal! I have not used Genesis.

Bitcoin talk is highly negative on Genesis, even though it is acknowledged as the most legitimate cloud mining operation, and it seems it's a lot less profitable than you think. You have to contend both with price and difficulty, which is why they lock you into a 2 year contract. It sounds better than it is until you run the numbers, and find that in most cases, buying and holding seems to work better. I would estimate using Genesis is going to cut your mining profit in half, relative to running it yourself.

On Step #3, make sure to take a look at your actual electric bill and check what your kilowatt rate is. It can vary wildly depending on where you are and make a huge difference in your own profitability. I'd also suggest working in equipment depreciation.

Generally systems running under high load are prone to needing regular tune-ups. I can't recall how many fans and other items I've had to replace. Finally, I'd consider re-running any set of final numbers through an Eth price of $100 and $200, just to get an idea of how much profitability will drop on market pull-backs. I'd assume needing to weather one at some point. Thanks Jerry. Interesting video but as as someone who has been mining crypto since 2013.

You didnt adjust your watts in the video and efficiency is key when mining ( watts per m/h) also you wont be able to run 50 cards in one house unless you upgrade your house to handle the load. On top of that you didnt mention the heat these cards produce you NEED cooling and downtime of rigs will happen as well. And there are many other things such as bios modding and overclocking cards to improve watts and hashrate. Also there are fees when mining such as pool fees and mining program fees etc.

Lastly the 8k to start in the video is way off for 50 cards your looking at more like 14k and that is not including psu, motherboard, ram, ssd/hdd, cables, risers, cpu, cooling, etc. If you're going to mine please do a little bit more research or you will lose money. Or you can cloud mine and pay a big premium for less work. If I can become a Steemian early enough and read this article 10 day before, I might have setup my own machine at home mining already. However the researches I did basically pointed me to another direction of mining, Genesis-mining.

Reasons are simple: • Electric bill is extremely expensive here in Hong Kong • Mining at home is too noisy and hot, we have small.very small apartment only • GPU cards that are good for mining machines are all sold out without nay expected stock up date. So I decided to take cloud mining as a starting point. My Genesis-mining plan is now running for about 10 days, still hard to tell if it is profitable or not, but at least I see a little bit of ETH being stored. Waiting to get my first payout in another 22 days time. First let me say the content you post, particularly on Youtube, and Steemit is of superb quality and I wanted to thank you for your many informative posts!

Second, I personally think Ethereum is the future of cryptocurrency. So many new and exciting things can be made with Solidity, I don't think ether gets the credit it deserves, most people just think it's a platform to release ICOs on, well that may be true, it's so much more than that and we're only now BEGINNING to scratch the surface of what's possible.

With different projects like Storj, Sia or Burst the use of hard drives and storage space tied to crypto currency mining or sharing files with crypto token rewards may become more attractive to users. With hard drive sizes growing and solutions available for building multi terabyte storage systems available building a multi-terabyte storage solution for use with the projects mentioned above might be viable. We’ve already covered a more affordable home user option for, but there are options for much larger scale solutions that are still not too expensive, though probably still above the budget of the average home users.

You need to look at more serious server companies for products that are designed for file servers for examples as we are going to be using a Supermicro solution for hosting 24 HDDs in a single rack-mountable chassis. The solution you are seeing here is not particularly designed for use with Burst, Sia or Storj, but we wanted to give it a try using it for them to get an idea what you may expect. The 4U chassis used from Supermicro is designed for file servers in a rack-mountable format, supporting 24 3.5-inch hard drives, though the company offers many different products for 2.5 and 3.5-inch drives all the way up to 90 drives per system and apart from complete solutions you also have the option to go for HDD expanders for many drives that are being connected to separate systems.

We have used 24 hard drives from Hitachi with a capacity of 6 TB which in theory should result in 144TB of storage space (in non RAID configuration with mirroring or spare drives), but in reality due to how HDD capacity is being calculated we are actually getting just 130 TB of usable space. For the purpose of the already mentioned crypto related projects you’d probably want to go for more space than redundancy, especially if you are building such a solution with that many hard drives. Storj and Sia are supposed to ensure redundancy and data availability by replicating user stored data or multiple systems and for Burst that uses HDD space for mining you may just regenerate the plots in case you have a problem with any of the hard drives available. With Storj’s DriveShare you may have multiple drives shared, but with SIA or Burst you may have to do a HDD spanning configuration, so that all of the available space will be usable as a single drive. What you should be well aware of is the time it may take to fill up a very large space such as 130 TB with data using any of the projects. It will take literally days to generate HDD plots of that size for Burst mining, or to generate test data for the Storj DriveShare service as it currently does not store user data while still in testing phase.

For Sia that already has an operating network and users are actually sharing data the waiting time to actually utilize that free space might take months and you needing to have a low price to attract more users. So at this point in time you probably can go with much smaller storage solutions and a 24-drive monster like this might be a bit overkill, especially considering the amount of money you will need to pay for the hardware and the expected ROI for using it as a mining medium or storage sharing solution that you get paid for. But then again, if you need to build one for different tasks and you have some free space on it you might want to give the three mentioned services a go. Earlier this week we have checked out the current status of, an interesting altcoin that uses free HDD space for mining as well as started using – a Blockchain-based cloud data storage service that has its own crypto currency token used to pay users sharing their free hard drive space (also mineable). So now it is time to share what we have earned or should earn for 5 days of mining Burst coins and sharing our free space using the Sia and also to compare to what we have earned as a rewards for testing the that we have posted about yesterday. We are starting with Burst, for 5 days mining the coin with 100 GB plot size (rather small) in a mining pool we have managed to earn a little short of 180 Burst coins.

These coins are immediately available in our wallet once they are confirmed, unlike with DriveShare where rewards are currently distributed on a monthly basis for the previous month and when the contract ends for hosing files on Sia. Looking at the current exchange rate for Burst is 19 satoshi per coin, so for 5 days this means we have managed to mine just about 3420 satoshi. An estimate for 20 days based on these earnings in order to be able to compare to the earnings from Storj means we should expect to mine the Burst coin alternative of about 13680 satoshi.

Just as a comparison, for 20 days sharing the same 100 GB size of data on the DriveShare in the current beta we have earned as a reward a little over 12 SJCX coins or about 115000 satoshi. So even with the not so high rewards in the current Storj DriveShare beta you can earn more than mining Burst with the same shared free space. The catch with Storj however is that you need to invest in at least 10000 SJCX coins and have them in your wallet in order to be eligible for receiving rewards. Moving on to Sia that is similar to idea to Storj’s MetaDisk and DriveShare services, however unlike with Storj’s services Sia is already operational and you can purchase contracts ans share files or host files of other users and pay or get paid for your services. How To Create A Emercoin EMC Mining Pool. After 5 days of running the Sia wallet and client sharing 100 GB of free space on the network we are at an estimated 520 Sia coins to be earned once our current contracts are over. This is with a set price of 100 Sia coins per GB of space per month which is below the average usually floating in between 130-160 Sia coins per Gigabyte per month price that can even go up to about 200.

The current price of Siacoin is about 7 satoshi or this means that when we fulfill our hosting contracts we would have earned 3640 satoshi for 5 fays or an estimate of about 14560 satoshi for 20 days in order to compare with the Storj rewards. The catch with Sia is that even though we are sharing 100 GB of free space for 5 days we have managed to get contracts for hosting only about 3.5 GB of user data.

Interestingly enough with just 3.5 GB we have managed to get an estimated earnings of slightly more than when mining for Burst coins, but still significantly less than we have earned from Storj’s DriveShare beta rewards. IF we multiply the rewards for the 3.5 GB shared data to estimate what would the full 100 GB earn if we have sold the full size result in about 14872 Siacoins in earnings. That would mean that for 20 days if we managed to immediately sell the full 100 GB free space that we decided to dedicate to Sia we could have earned nearly 105000 satoshi. This would be significantly more than form Burst, but still lower than the DriveShare rewards estimated for the same time and with the same amount of free space shared. So it seems that Storj’s DriveShare beta service and the rewards that are being distributed for helping in testing and developing the service is more profitable at the current exchange rates and the potential for even more earnings s there once the service is ready for official launch. The drawback however is that you need to invest a significant amount in at least 1000 SJCX coins in order to be eligible for rewards. Also once again the service launches it may face the same problem as Sia at the moment – not enough users to quickly take up all of the offered free space by hosters.

Sia has good potential to develop and compete with the likes of Storj, but it needs more users and needs to address some important things that we have covered in our initial impressions. The advantage that Sia has is that you are able to mine Siacoins in a more traditional way, however this also needs work as currently it is only solo mining and there are quite a few inconveniences present there as well. Then comes Burst, it also needs more work to become more user friendly and easy to get into by novice users. Burst has a lot of extra features, however they are not that well described or easy to be used or whatever, making their presence insignificant if they do not attract users or are being used just by very few people.

Then again you may also say that the coin is undervalued at the moment, another possibility that results in low profit for mining Burst at the moment. It has been over a year and a half since we’ve that you mine with a hard drive, so we’ve decided to revisit what has happened since.

The Burst crypto currency uses a new algorithm for proof of HDD capacity (POC) mining, so it needs a lot of hard drive space – the more, the better and more coins you should be able to mine. One of the reasons that we wanted to check the coin out again was the availability of a Windows Wallet Client that is supposed to integrate everything in a single user friendly package that is easy even for novice miners to get started.
