I mean, if its profitable and I can just set it in the background and make a few bucks every night/day when I'm not using the computer..... then really why wouldn't I?

Especially since I'm buying a gaming rig that would be very well suited to the task, and in medical school I won't likely have lots of time left over..... if twice a year I check it and can convert it into a hundred or so dollars for fun times, then sounds like fun ^_^


I feel ya'. I legit think the crypto space is very easy to make money in at the moment.

just started mining monero. Calculator says 1$ a day before fees on my garbage computer.

Ordered a new one though that will be ready to assemble in a week or two that will be more efficient. Maybe I could make a whole 5$/day and roll in the moneys

I pay a pretty low cost for electricity even for the states.

The power cost is included in the calculator.


Also helps with heating cost in winter ^_^

I haven't talked to Tuna.

I did see spam threads about monero though, which is probably why it stuck in my mind.




Anyway, anybody know some still easy to mine coins that are low market cap? Or is there a search engine for these things?

General: https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/

Alt-Coins: https://www.reddit.com/r/altcoin/

Markets: https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMarkets/

All of these are good starting points, I think.

https://coinmarketcap.com/

One can use the "market cap" and "circulating supply" tabs to order things based off those categories.

Frankly any forum that gives investment advice is a bad idea, you’ll get shilled

Reddit gets 90% of their advice from /biz/, by the time its talked about on reddit people are preparing to dump

I'll check out /biz/ too then.

Dumb noob question, what exactly is the relationship between wallets and exchanges? Can I keep my funds in a wallet and trade them with exchanges, or do I have to individually send the funds to the exchange and hold it in the exchange's "wallet" and then whenever I want it back in my normal wallet make a withdrawal? Cause BTC has a ton of huge send fees IME so just trying to find the best way too avoid too many send transactions. Dunno whether to get a separate wallet or just hold everything in one of the exchanges.

The latter. Wallets are for storage, and exchanges are for trading.

There are some websites that will allow you to exchange directly from your wallet, like Shapeshift and Changelly, but these aren't proper exchanges. They're more of crypto converters, really.
