Cryptocurrency Mining

I would like to send from my bitcoin wallet in minergate pool/exchange , to luno, so i just wanted to confirm this....
Have i chosen the right exchange, luno?
Which exchange do you use?
Click to expand...

Yes Luno, just note the fees for sending BTC have increased drastically so sending small amounts aren't worth it, the fees might end up being more than you are sending.

Do they support Capitec for example.

can you do CNP transactions with your card? Transactions where the merchant does not have to swipe your card (example online transactions). If the answer is yes then yes, they do support Capitec.

Does it have a BTC address built in ?

Yes, and you call it a wallet, a bitcoin wallet to be exact. Don't embarrass us like that when you speak to members of another forum :)

Yes so YingYang, i can do this right? use cex.io ...
i just transfer my 0.00whatever it is of btc to this cex.io right ? and then in cex.io i can sell/buy btc/zar right?
and then i eft that zar to the bank here?
 
It's interesting that there are a lot of naysayers and yet people are making money.

I wish I'd taken GPU cryptocurrency mining more seriously, I could have at the very least upgraded my GPU for free for the last few years running.

Hold the damn phone, sweetheart! Withdraw your money from Luno to your capitec bank account.

I was talking about in future because cex is cheap.
 
Anyone have struggles getting 2FA working? I keep getting invalid code :(

At my work so many fking naysayers saying im wasting my time.
I am just trying, i dont know if i can make it because more and more miners are coming aboard and especially the people that have everything and dont realize it, so they make it harder for everybody.
We are very lucky as SAs that the BTC price upped a lot because we see more payrate now for mining where as say 1 month ago it was like 1 dollar on your graphics card ...depending what u have...im talking entry level

I wish i had the money i would get a better LGA 1155 motherboard because the one i have doesnt support overclocking, so sad about it. I would also get a new graphics card preferably an RX470.

I initially got a pc upgrade done and i got a really nice motherboard and cpu - budget for performance so to speak BUT it was gaming and basic computer videos editing and mp3s - i did not know about mining.
I then saw that my AMD FM2 i have is useless at mining, serious, and it doesnt have any L3 cache.
If i could i would get an AM3 and forget about AM4.

Unless i use my AMD FM2 and who cares the CPU is weak and just get a decent 1 or 2 graphics cards to start right ?

The LGA i spoke of above is another machine which i am only and primarily using for this forum chat surfing and mining.
My friend lost interest in PCs so he gave it to me for a decent price, just a pity the motherboard doesnt support overclocking.

I have tried a number of pools and i get stupid authentication or stratum errors on SGminer the worst dam miner i hate it.
CPUminers also i have noticed over time they no longer work on some pools like NHMP or LITECOINPOOL NANOPOOL , not sure why,.
I reckon they have upgraded the servers....

NEVERMIND, u mean 2 Factor Authentication, i disable that if i can cause i also get invalid code nonsense. Some sites enforce it , but then feel the pain.
Luno you can disable it and also bittrex

That exchange you just posted and another one I tried to join earlier today, seems the authenticator is out of sync but even when doing a re-synch on the app the codes still don't work.

So you have BTC in a wallet which is not at Luno. Good

register with cex and send the coin there. Under finance you will see Bitcoin, click and then click deposit. It will give you an address.

Use that address at whoever has your coin now and transfer it
 
Just for interest (and a future project already taking shape), how many people are mining on Equihash algorithm (Nicehashminer or otherwise)

Plenty i'm sure.
I use nicehashminer and i sometimes manually mine, it depends how i feel.
Equihash is looking good in price but the return in mining is not good enough even for my 1 GPU i have.
I plan t get another and i hope i can by then because i am sure Vega will be out and then im, screwed all those retailers here are going to up their prices for some bull**** reason.
I dont know how some guys do it they seen to have everything
All i know is that if i look at wootware pricing its shocking ,m they were the best by far and not they are not, in someways rebeltech is slightly better but only just marginally.
