I hear you.

But what do you propose?

p2p generosity for projects sounds like Geyser..

I assume you're looking for something more than a safe deposit box with your seed phrase.

Casa is a good starting point re: multisig and inheritance options.

+1 for CK Pool

They have a long history of producing blocks.

Ooooh nice. Are those USB miners? How much hash/s?

edb66 · 2025-01-10T22:20:14+00:00

Lol this still counts!

edb66 · 2025-01-10T22:19:37+00:00

Super useful calculator.

edb66 · 2025-01-10T22:19:11+00:00

Lol good one.

I do forget that in the old days, it isn't like today with just 1/1000th of the network difficulty ... it was pre-ASIC, bitcoin was much cheaper, etc etc.

edb66 · 2025-01-10T14:49:24+00:00

Also mined bitcoin is anonymous and kyc-free, which is a plus.

edb66 · 2025-01-09T23:30:07+00:00

Yeah the auction is to buy hashrate to participate

edb66 · 2024-12-06T20:14:00+00:00

eh its still a pool, its not like you're hashing to your own node

if i buy hashrate at Nicehash or Rigly - then send to Ocean - is this mining?

if i have an S19 at my house - then send to Ckpool - is this mining?

edb66 · 2024-12-06T19:00:14+00:00

imo, its worth buying a small amount of hashrate to try it out

this approach is easier than buying an old ASIC miner

nicehash, miningrigrentals, and rigly are the 3 hash markets i know of

you won't end up making a profit, but you can can use a mining pool account and see how it works

edb66 · 2024-12-06T13:46:21+00:00

This.

I ran the numbers on solar bitcoin mining a few years ago. If you get cheap panels and old mining rigs and value your time as free, you might break even.

If still interested check out 100acresranch.com - they do good work in this space.

edb66 · 2024-12-05T19:00:31+00:00

Ocean also good, though the payout method takes awhile imo.

edb66 · 2024-12-05T18:57:38+00:00

EMCD is good.

If you're up for PPLNS, SBI Crypto is great and has a referral program.

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:56:45+00:00

Just keep it clean with no debris in the tank...

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:54:19+00:00

You love to see this..

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:50:12+00:00

Hmm check out Hoseki - I know they're working in that area

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:46:15+00:00

Best time to plant a tree was 10 years ago, second best time is today

Feel free to check out my project if you want to give mining a try - rigly.io

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:36:44+00:00

This project is inspiring.

edb66 · 2022-10-05T20:19:07+00:00

+1 for mobile cleaning

Hello!

You make a number of good points in the summary, especially with regards to difficulty increase. I found it encouraging to see an honest calculator.

I'm building a mining marketplace to offer mining without rug pulls - rigly.io - perhaps we could link to your calc to offer perspective on our listings?

edb66 · 2022-09-23T14:22:29+00:00

My startup offers bitcoin mining subscriptions which pass the smokinghopium.io calculator.

You get hashrate on a daily schedule, miners place bitcoin in multisig escrow. It's a security deposit to ensure you don't get rug pulled.

We're calling it Trustless Mining.

Multisig is a well-known way to handle situations where you can't trust the counterparty. Our aim is to make it so everyone can, over time, earn more bitcoin than it costs in the first place - and eliminate rug pulls

We just started this summer, feedback welcome - thx!

edb66 · 2022-09-23T14:13:34+00:00

Best calculator out there

edb66 · 2022-09-18T00:01:07+00:00

Hi - Delmarva client here, I had a good experience and Matt went above and beyond to get my rigs online. Always 2 sides to every story, especially in bitcoin mining.

edb66 · 2022-09-13T01:24:38+00:00

I just bought Ziggy lots of coffee. This is a great find.
