Bitcoin or Ethereum

Not my first bios flash thanks. I'm not to keen on flashing any pre-configured file rather configure on my own. My card have a dual bios as well.

Not to derail the thread I'm still getting much lower hashing rates using nicehash. I've only flashed the bios, perhaps I should play a bit more with the values.

Just checking, are you mining dagger algo with claymore miner, on NiceHash?

Partly. Still waiting for the R9 380X's to arrive hopefully by Friday. Then with the way things are going now I can hopefully get some RX 580's for my old M2N-E which I've now ordered a Ryzen replacement for.
 
Thor I wanted to ask I have a Luno account, I buy small amounts of bitcoin. I build up a bit over time, I then have installed Exodus I transfer some bitcoin to exodus wallet and then purchase other altcoins(ether, dodge ect). What I wanted to find out is how would I get the cryptocurrency back into rands if I wanted to take profit? Would I then have to convert back into bitcoin on exodus, transfer to Luno wallet and then sell on Luno exchange. This way is all very dependent on value of bitcoin and its liquidity in the future. Is there another way?

Currently that's the only way.
Or sell it on a marketplace
Or Gumtree
Also keep tax in mind when you exchange it for ZAR.

This will change, ethereum will be more accessible in the coming months.

Odd.. Defaults with nicehash

Assuming you already have 3rd party miners downloaded. If not, you need the 3rd party bin files in which claymore Dual resides.

Then deselect all algos except the claymore dagger option, save setting. Redo a benchmark on claymore dagger. Then, while all others are still unchecked, start miner. Nicehash will be forced to use claymore. Report back here with how much the daily earnings have increased.

Yes, I spend some more time on the nicehash docs and noticed the 3rd party ones. Fixed now, I'm getting around 4.2USD per day it's been running through the night.

So by applying the BIOS mod on my RX470 and clocking memory and lowering the vdc I'm getting around 4.2USD from the card now. Have to add I'm using better mining algorithms as well.

Good stuff, well done.
 
Hi guys

I recently managed to secure Ether by exchanging Bitcoin for it. The intention is to keep for some period. I am however looking into best options to convert back to ZAR or Bitcoin should the time come. Any ideas how to go about this?
 
The answer is clearly to buy both. I have an extremely diversified cryptocurrency portfolio, holding over 50 different cryptocurrencies. Not divided equally, divided in value so that my favourites get a higher % of the portfolio, on least favourites get less. If you like Ethereum more, go 70% Ethereum, 30% bitcoin or something like that.

I've enjoyed 350% growth on my crypto portfolio since I've started in late february.

Care to share what others you're looking at/investing in? I just cant see the likes of Ripple and Monero doing better than Ethereum or BTC
 
What is your opinion, should we worry about this Bitcoin potential split, should we move all Bitcoin to Ether for now until we know what's going to happen?

From what I understand, Ether could see a pretty wide adoption as it has more wide spread capabilities compared to Bitcoin. Also, seeing that it is newer than Bitcoin and trading at a low price still (compared to Bitcoin), the potential for higher gains is greater than with Bitcoin. What do you guys think?
