Damnit I wish all the wallet chat was in it's own thread :mad:. Not in the mood for trawling through threads seeing which wallet most here prefer.

I'm thinking of setting up my own mining rig, possibly even selling a few systems to people.

That ship has sailed. You can find bitcoin mining calculators with a quick google to show you much you can make in a month based on your system. Not worth it now.

Well, not worth it now...unless...you have mega bucks to spend...and you will have to wait up to a year to break even and only then start making dosh...and then, you will need to upgrade your mining rigs...the never ending circle...

Keen to hear how the day/week traders on here manage to make a profit with the delays on LUNO as well as the insane transaction charges?

By insane transaction charges, are you referring to their crazy currency conversion rates?
 
thought as much, will rather HODL

I noticed their conversion is crazy when you want to buy.

Currently it's more than 10% above a direct conversion. I know there was a thread somewhere where it was explained, which I should look at again.

Edit: I guess you're also selling in line with those rates, so it works out?

I just bought Leonardo. Mostly because the interface is better than any of the online ones I've found. It's also by nature snappier since it's a Windows app and not a web app.

How well is it working for you? I downloaded the demo version a while ago, where they give you demo funds to play with using actual data from the exchange. After a few days it made a loss, so I lost interest, but tbh I didn't put much effort into setting up and learning, so I could probably tweak it to do better.

I haven't tested yet - it's after hours and I'm waiting for my build to come through.
 
Our house is currently in the market and I'm secretly playing with the idea of getting an antminer. Only problem is I love my balls and my wife will rip them clean off if I were to do that :p
