As a man, without even watching the video. The answer is unequivocally yes. I'll watch the video now.

I've been gone for a while.. But I'm back! Gonna take some time to respond to everybody I've missed. @Violeta León It's really powerful, and it's free; but it has a huge learning curve. When trying it out, remember *YOUTUBE AND GOOGLE ARE YOUR FRIENDS*, the forums might be helpful, but there...

There's a few ways to lose money with mining. The first concern is the investment in hardware. If you don't already own the hardware, you have the purchase price of the graphics cards to mine, and the computer to put them in and all that. Then you have the electricity cost of running that...

I'm seeing a lot of predictions and speculation that it would top 20k, some of the more far out ones even say 100k or other six-figure numbers by the end of this year. Monero is also really profitable to mine right now because of a recent hard fork to prevent ASIC's from entering the market. So...

General advice for any crypto is don’t put in any more money than you’re willing to lose. Making investment choices for mining can be especially difficult because your ROI on parts will change with the market prices.

So I’m curious, I’ve been mining on two rigs since mid/late-January, and took the time to set up accounts with an exchange, making a wallet and doing all the stuff to store that securely; and I want to know why and when you guys got into mining crypto(or speculating, whatever goats your float )...

I’ve been watching the ZEC difficulty like a hawk the past few months, and since I send my payouts directly to my own ZEC wallet I’m able to send it to an exchange or ShapeShift it to another coin pretty easily. I generally get a payout once every 38-44 hours, so the difficulty hasn’t been...

That’s how it happens normally, but the ZCash difficulty hasn't gone down enough to make a difference in a while

Difficulty is based on how many computers are on the network. There isn’t actually correlation with difficulty and price with crypto currencies. That’s why mining isn’t very profitable right now. Difficulty is increasing because the networks are growing and getting better at solving for hashes...

I can’t say anything on using the Freedom miner, I’ve been mining ZCash to my own private wallet. Might run some benchmarks against the stuff I’m using now, see which one performs better..

Thanks! There’s been a lot of people sharing it on their social media, and that’s helping a lot.

Different google account and YouTube channel. This is my personal account & channel.

First off, congratulations on almost graduating! Keep it up! It’s always possible to make a set more quiet and suitable for recording. Right now is a really rough time to be building computers because of the memory shortage, cryptocurrency mining operations, there’s a lot wrong with the PC...

Yeah. I just got to my night class and one of the guys in the lab said here was an active shooter at YouTube... We didn’t do much programming that night. Sad, but glad it wasn’t any worse.

How dastardly clever. I like the way you think!
