I'm glad to hear it.I'm sure it will. Doesn't mean I'm going to tolerate it..

Try ChiaI'm pretty much a complete noob with anything crypto. I have no interest in GPU mining whatsoever for so many reasons I won't get into here. However, I am curious. Is there anything out there that is CPU only and profitable after electricity costs? Also, what about Helium and helium miners? Are the miner machines likely to be worth the investment? I have done some research, but much of this stuff still makes me dizzy.

The Bobcat appears to be the most cost efficient Helium miner. I think I would have bought 2 if they had took payment in something other than crypto. I'll send you a PM tonight or tomorrow regarding your offer. This is certainly just fun for me. If there is profit, it would just be a bonus. I'm just really curious.If you do want to go the helium route they seem to be taking orders for that Bobcat radio relay/miner in crypto-stablecoins (USDC) form. It claims to have a 10mi range. I'd happily do the cash-> crypto-stablecoins part for you if you need it and probably buy one myself in the same order @PaulieG
There's a 10-12 week lead time to build it though. That's icky. But I will admit the techy in me is tickled by this idea. Cool little thing I was not aware of. Just don't... you know, it should go without saying, but it doesn't. Never spend money you can't afford to lose. I'd just be in it for the fun.

Chia is pretty much a non-earner without 16TB now or something I heard... just sayin'Try Chia
game while mining
Actually that's possible... There's also the issues of degraded signal effect. The FCC might step in and put the clamp on it all...The telecommunications companies are notorious for 'donating' to congress. I really don't see Helium going anywhere, if it gets any traction at all, they will make sure it gets shut down, in USA anyway. I'm sure they will claim stuff like security risks, etc.

Everything hinges on whether I get some of this gym equipment sold tonight. A guy from Atlanta will be up to look at it this evening, so I'll know better then.Any thoughts on this PaulieG? Not to rush you but if doing a combined order I may just be jumping on my own soon.
I'd still happily convert the crypto for you of course, so no pressure.

That's nice but this thread isn't about gpu mining.I wouldn't expect it to crash any time soon unless something dramatic unexpectedly happens. There's a guy making over $300 per day mining "lone wolf" style with around 45 low end 4Gb NVidia cards in server racks running some kind of Linux OS specifically meant for mining. That's with the cost of electricity included. Altogether he spent close to $17k on the equipment over the past couple of years adding on to it.![]()

Not to mention that with the "Proof of Stake" change-over happening, GPU mining is going to be dead in the water...That's nice but this thread isn't about gpu mining.

I did a little homework on this too. It's basically encouraging you to build in dead zones, but not in corn fields. You still want nodes nearby (ie people live there).I actually did a semi deep dive on helium last week. As far as mining it's HEAVILY dependent on your location and the amount of people near you also mining. There's also a tipping point where a location gets oversaturated and becomes less profitable.
I'd say if money is your goal, buy the token now as it seems to be "hot." But again, what do I know? I'm a frog.It has the makings of being profitable for a few people in great locations, and being a pricey investment for those who get in late or don't research their location well enough.

No sarcasm intended: I'm interested in reading/viewing what you're talking about.My miner arrived today.
I had a change of heart. Despite no ROI in site, I am going to document the setup and earnings of this thing, review style.
It is the least I can do, given this is one of the few productive "Proof of " algorithms out there today.
Stay tuned.
