00:00:16,480 all doing hope you're all doing really 4 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,039 well and having a really great day in 5 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:21,760 this video i'm gonna talk about is it 6 00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:25,199 still worth it to get into gpu mining in 7 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:27,359 2022 this year there are a lot of big 8 00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:29,439 milestones that are going to happen and 9 00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:32,239 i also do want to touch on just some 10 00:00:29,439 --> 00:00:34,960 other aspects regarding crypto mining or 11 00:00:32,238 --> 00:00:37,199 gpu mining in general and i have a lot 12 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,679 of questions here that i wrote down that 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,960 i thought would pertain to a lot of new 14 00:00:39,679 --> 00:00:43,519 people coming in 15 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:45,679 and may have questions about it or may 16 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,520 never have thought about it before so 17 00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:49,600 i'm gonna go through a lot this video is 18 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:52,000 probably gonna be decently long and i 19 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,920 will go through each question one by one 20 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,878 and before we begin this video is 21 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:59,439 sponsored by labrador mining.com 22 00:00:56,878 --> 00:01:02,399 labrador mining is helping people get 23 00:00:59,439 --> 00:01:05,759 into professional gpu mining so they are 24 00:01:02,399 --> 00:01:08,400 a official vendor for the nvidia cmp 90 25 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:11,040 hx graphics cards i have recently just 26 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:13,200 tested the cmp98 x and achieved great 27 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,720 results in terms of efficiency and hash 28 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,478 rates if you guys are interested feel 29 00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:18,400 free to check that video out and as well 30 00:01:16,478 --> 00:01:20,560 links down below in the description to 31 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:23,600 labradormining.com 32 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:26,000 all right guys so every question here is 33 00:01:23,599 --> 00:01:28,719 kind of in order of importance that i 34 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,920 think in my opinion so the first one is 35 00:01:28,719 --> 00:01:32,158 should you be worried about your 36 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:34,879 electrical slash expenses before you go 37 00:01:32,159 --> 00:01:36,719 into gpu slash crypto mining and the 38 00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:40,319 reason why i answered this question 39 00:01:36,719 --> 00:01:41,840 first is because it is very important on 40 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,000 your electrical 41 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,320 expenses what your cost is depending 42 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,438 where you live and i know that there are 43 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:51,679 many different countries that have high 44 00:01:49,438 --> 00:01:54,478 electrical cost now this is a graph that 45 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,439 was based on in 2020 i know that there 46 00:01:54,478 --> 00:01:57,200 have been 47 00:01:55,438 --> 00:01:59,599 some countries that have gone up in 48 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,960 price in terms of electrical costs so 49 00:01:59,599 --> 00:02:03,039 just take these numbers with a grain of 50 00:02:00,959 --> 00:02:05,839 salt these are just general numbers that 51 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:08,000 i'm going by but generally it seems like 52 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,878 a lot of the european countries and 53 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,719 maybe some countries in asia that are 54 00:02:10,878 --> 00:02:15,359 high electrical costs you know we've got 55 00:02:12,719 --> 00:02:17,039 uk over here 24 cents i actually heard 56 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,720 something recently the uk are actually 57 00:02:17,039 --> 00:02:21,199 bumping up their electrical cost for 58 00:02:18,719 --> 00:02:22,959 residential miners up to like 30 or 35 59 00:02:21,199 --> 00:02:24,799 cents pretty high well i think that's 60 00:02:22,959 --> 00:02:26,640 gonna go up into like germany numbers 61 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,400 unless germany has also gone up in the 62 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:31,039 cost per kilowatt hour here which is 63 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,879 honestly very tough right as i will show 64 00:02:31,039 --> 00:02:35,280 some profitability numbers based on you 65 00:02:32,878 --> 00:02:37,359 know let's say 35 cent per kilowatt hour 66 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,759 and so on but as we go down depending 67 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,080 where you live here we got usa which is 68 00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:44,318 average about 15 cents we got canada 69 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,440 which is 10 cent per kilowatt hour and 70 00:02:44,318 --> 00:02:47,679 it looks like we got other countries 71 00:02:45,439 --> 00:02:49,199 here india is pretty low down there 72 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,920 mexico russia 73 00:02:49,199 --> 00:02:53,839 sixth sense wow but anyways just to give 74 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,639 you guys that perspective of not 75 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:59,039 everyone will be able to you know crypto 76 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:02,479 mine because their electrical cost will 77 00:02:59,039 --> 00:03:04,878 be a huge factor it is definitely a huge 78 00:03:02,479 --> 00:03:06,479 factor when it comes to getting into 79 00:03:04,878 --> 00:03:09,518 mining especially if you want to do it 80 00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:10,639 at scale and you know if let's just for 81 00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:13,599 example 82 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,759 we got a 30 70 lhr card which is a 83 00:03:13,598 --> 00:03:18,479 pretty easy to get i would say available 84 00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:20,799 gpu nowadays because they have the lhr 85 00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:23,679 moniker on them but you can see here you 86 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:25,280 know generally right now as we're mining 87 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,080 ethereum it seems like the most 88 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:30,719 profitable coin on this 3070 lhr at a 89 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,640 dollar 29 after 90 00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:35,280 30 cent per kilowatt hour actually let 91 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,279 me just do 35 let me just see 92 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,120 uh let's see 35 cents per kilowatt hour 93 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,080 oh okay so you're going to be making 94 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:44,000 about a dollar 13 a day after your 95 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,799 electrical if you had free electric of 96 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,318 course 2.22 cents a day so that's that's 97 00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:50,480 another thing if you had free electric 98 00:03:48,318 --> 00:03:52,479 which i don't think many people have 99 00:03:50,479 --> 00:03:54,560 unless you're renting but then you know 100 00:03:52,479 --> 00:03:55,840 if you start mining at a rental place 101 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,519 then the landlord is going to be like 102 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,200 why did the electrical bill just go up 103 00:03:57,519 --> 00:04:01,680 like a thousand dollars or something 104 00:03:59,199 --> 00:04:04,000 like that so anyways you can see that 105 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,319 generally you know mining right now is 106 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,000 profitable but there are some things to 107 00:04:06,318 --> 00:04:10,958 consider which i will talk about in 108 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,479 question number three regarding ethereum 109 00:04:10,959 --> 00:04:14,400 moving to proof of stake okay so we'll 110 00:04:12,479 --> 00:04:16,238 get into that we'll get into that but 111 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,639 going on with question number one 112 00:04:16,238 --> 00:04:20,399 regarding the electrical cost is that if 113 00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:24,639 you are going to be mining 114 00:04:20,399 --> 00:04:26,799 as a hobby or as a business okay so 115 00:04:24,639 --> 00:04:29,519 that's one thing to consider especially 116 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,918 with you know taxes tax reasons because 117 00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:33,918 when you are able to mine as let's say a 118 00:04:31,918 --> 00:04:36,000 business right then you'll be able to 119 00:04:33,918 --> 00:04:38,240 have expenses right and you can offset 120 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,639 that against the income that you are 121 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,639 making regarding the mining rewards so 122 00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:45,040 that helps a lot right in terms of 123 00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:46,800 expensing the electrical your hardware 124 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,960 all that good stuff but then you know 125 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:52,160 let's say you're just a hobbyist miner 126 00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:53,918 with just one graphics card then it may 127 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,439 not make sense for you to make a 128 00:04:53,918 --> 00:04:58,799 business off you know you just have 129 00:04:55,439 --> 00:05:01,120 maybe one or two gpus for mining then 130 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,360 yeah you can just do it as a hobby hobby 131 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,038 miner and this is not financial advice 132 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,520 or anything please always go talk to 133 00:05:05,038 --> 00:05:09,038 your tax professional cpa what not 134 00:05:07,519 --> 00:05:11,839 always do your due diligence when it 135 00:05:09,038 --> 00:05:13,599 comes to tax time as i do have about i 136 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,159 think 30 percent viewers that are in the 137 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,439 usa and so tax is very important 138 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,240 especially with other countries around 139 00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:22,560 the world as well coinley.io is one 140 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:25,519 software that i use for crypto tax 141 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:28,079 reports for canada and this is this is 142 00:05:25,519 --> 00:05:29,680 honestly a great way to do all that and 143 00:05:28,079 --> 00:05:32,159 you know you can specify your mining 144 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,560 rewards also specify when you you know 145 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,800 sell or exchange or whatever all that 146 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,478 stuff this coinley.io is great i'm not 147 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,639 sponsored or anything but you guys 148 00:05:38,478 --> 00:05:43,120 should go check it out coinley.io so 149 00:05:40,639 --> 00:05:45,439 going back to just profitability here 150 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,840 let's just do 10 cent per kilowatt hour 151 00:05:45,439 --> 00:05:50,478 on a 30 70 lhr 152 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,319 and we can see here now with 10 cent per 153 00:05:50,478 --> 00:05:54,719 kilowatt hour for those that have that 154 00:05:52,319 --> 00:05:57,519 type of electrical cost they are able to 155 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,800 generate right a dollar 93 a day or if 156 00:05:57,519 --> 00:06:00,879 they had free electric two dollars and 157 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,439 24 cents so you can see the difference 158 00:06:00,879 --> 00:06:05,360 there between 10 cents and 30 cent per 159 00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:07,279 kilowatt hour it's a pretty big 160 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,960 difference right on how much you're 161 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,918 going to be paying depending which gpus 162 00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:12,239 you have right depending on the 163 00:06:09,918 --> 00:06:14,879 efficiency and whatnot so for those that 164 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:16,960 are that have lower electrical costs 165 00:06:14,879 --> 00:06:19,360 they are able to stay competitive in the 166 00:06:16,959 --> 00:06:21,599 market in mining and essentially will be 167 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:24,319 able to generate more profit assuming 168 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,479 assuming they are selling every day okay 169 00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:28,479 so that's one thing i don't know very 170 00:06:26,478 --> 00:06:30,800 many miners who sell their profits every 171 00:06:28,478 --> 00:06:32,800 day i would say maybe big industrial 172 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,280 miners could potentially do that as they 173 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:38,160 have very large expenses but as 174 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:40,239 residential miners such as myself we 175 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,479 don't need to sell every day and so 176 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:45,199 these numbers do also change all the 177 00:06:42,478 --> 00:06:47,599 time right so that's that's something to 178 00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:49,680 you know just consider and i will talk 179 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,160 about that type of you know cost 180 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:54,240 analysis or you know roi all that kind 181 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,319 of stuff later on in this video so let's 182 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,639 just end off you know regarding electric 183 00:06:56,319 --> 00:07:00,800 it just depends where you live and if 184 00:06:58,639 --> 00:07:02,639 you have high electrical cost it may not 185 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,960 make sense for you to mine because you 186 00:07:02,639 --> 00:07:07,519 will incur that high cost that you have 187 00:07:04,959 --> 00:07:09,439 to pay for your electrical company so 188 00:07:07,519 --> 00:07:11,598 that will suck that will hurt your 189 00:07:09,439 --> 00:07:13,759 profits per se and you know you'll have 190 00:07:11,598 --> 00:07:15,038 to sell the crypto unless you are able 191 00:07:13,759 --> 00:07:17,840 to pay your electrical bill out of your 192 00:07:15,038 --> 00:07:20,079 pocket but that will be a bigger risk on 193 00:07:17,839 --> 00:07:21,598 your finances of course because you're 194 00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:23,038 you're paying a lot more on your 195 00:07:21,598 --> 00:07:24,240 electrical cost and if you're doing 196 00:07:23,038 --> 00:07:26,399 you're going to be doing that out of 197 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,560 pocket then you know those costs are 198 00:07:26,399 --> 00:07:30,318 going to keep adding up over time and 199 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,560 you know if you you know let's say the 200 00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:34,319 market goes down your holdings go down 201 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,800 you know it's going to get pretty tight 202 00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:39,520 but if you have the long-term personal 203 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:42,478 conviction your belief in cryptocurrency 204 00:07:39,519 --> 00:07:44,560 in the long term then it may not matter 205 00:07:42,478 --> 00:07:46,560 right which i do want to go into that 206 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,879 right now guys let's go into the next 207 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:51,439 question what is your personal 208 00:07:48,879 --> 00:07:54,879 conviction with cryptocurrency this 209 00:07:51,439 --> 00:07:56,639 question is really big because i believe 210 00:07:54,879 --> 00:07:59,520 that in order to if you're going to be 211 00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:01,759 getting into gpu mining it does matter 212 00:07:59,519 --> 00:08:04,318 on what you believe where cryptocurrency 213 00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:06,240 is gonna go in the future not only in 214 00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:09,360 the price but also the fundamental 215 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,199 aspect of this decentralized network and 216 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,160 with other coins out there as well 217 00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:16,000 there's a lot of new technologies that 218 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,680 has come about especially with the 219 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,079 within the last couple years and so 220 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,400 whether or not you know your conviction 221 00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:25,279 of whether cryptocurrency is to make 222 00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:28,478 money or is to believe in the 223 00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:31,519 technological factor of how it can help 224 00:08:28,478 --> 00:08:34,000 with providing a financial service of 225 00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:36,478 some sort to the whole world as a whole 226 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:39,278 then that is going to be life-changing 227 00:08:36,479 --> 00:08:42,320 so tying that in with you know in terms 228 00:08:39,278 --> 00:08:44,240 of the market cap of different things 229 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:47,040 different asset classes around the world 230 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:49,120 in companies or asset classes like gold 231 00:08:47,039 --> 00:08:51,439 you can see here gold is number one in 232 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:54,399 terms of market cap at 11.6 trillion 233 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:58,080 dollars so in terms of the price 234 00:08:54,399 --> 00:09:00,399 appreciation for bitcoin we're at 835 235 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,560 billion right now in terms of market cap 236 00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:05,200 and that's that's nothing to scoff at 237 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,838 that is a lot but is there potential and 238 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,879 this is not financial advice is there 239 00:09:06,839 --> 00:09:11,120 potential that bitcoin and 240 00:09:08,879 --> 00:09:13,039 cryptocurrency as a whole can be worth a 241 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:15,919 lot more someday so my personal 242 00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:19,519 conviction is that cryptocurrency in the 243 00:09:15,919 --> 00:09:21,759 future 5 10 15 20 years from now 244 00:09:19,519 --> 00:09:24,080 is gonna be worth and have a lot more 245 00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:26,319 value in the long run and that you know 246 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:29,360 another big thing is that bitcoin has 247 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:32,000 the scarcity factor as there's only 21 248 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,839 million bitcoins that can be created and 249 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,080 of course we can't forget the underlying 250 00:09:33,839 --> 00:09:38,320 technology of bitcoin or cryptocurrency 251 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:40,800 as a whole is the blockchain there is 252 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,959 basically a general ledger that we can 253 00:09:40,799 --> 00:09:44,479 see on the blockchain that you can see 254 00:09:42,958 --> 00:09:46,319 all of the transactions and all the 255 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,959 coins and where they're going it 256 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,360 essentially cannot be counterfeit let's 257 00:09:48,958 --> 00:09:53,199 just say someone had a money printer at 258 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,879 home and they're just printing off cash 259 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,959 out of nowhere and spending that 260 00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:59,120 somewhere but with bitcoin or 261 00:09:56,958 --> 00:10:00,879 cryptocurrency you you cannot do that 262 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,480 because you either 263 00:10:00,879 --> 00:10:06,078 it can be done with mining right with 264 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:07,360 gpus or staking or uh there's a few 265 00:10:06,078 --> 00:10:09,759 other coins out there that have had 266 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:12,399 pre-mines or you know depending on if 267 00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:16,078 they had icos whatever what not but as a 268 00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:18,720 miner like myself i like gpu mining and 269 00:10:16,078 --> 00:10:20,799 so cryptocurrency in the long term is 270 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:24,079 going to gain even more value and so 271 00:10:20,799 --> 00:10:26,000 getting into it right now i believe that 272 00:10:24,078 --> 00:10:28,239 it's just going to be worth a lot more 273 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:31,360 in the future and that is not financial 274 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,399 advice but that is basically my personal 275 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,720 conviction 276 00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:37,440 with cryptocurrency and yeah with that 277 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:39,839 underlying belief i think that trumps 278 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,440 everything else honestly everything else 279 00:10:39,839 --> 00:10:44,320 but of course electrical costs is 280 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,079 definitely a big factor when it comes to 281 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,440 when when you're mining of course but 282 00:10:46,078 --> 00:10:49,199 this second one here what is your 283 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,399 personal conviction with crypto is 284 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,519 something that you'll have to ask 285 00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:56,240 yourself and what your long-term or even 286 00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:58,320 short-term goals is as mining can be a 287 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,919 form of passive income right if you want 288 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,440 to sell every week or every month or 289 00:10:59,919 --> 00:11:04,240 something but i'll touch on that later 290 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:06,240 and so let's get into the third question 291 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,799 and that is ethereum is moving to proof 292 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:11,360 of stake will that hurt my profits does 293 00:11:08,799 --> 00:11:14,078 it matter and honestly this question is 294 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:16,560 probably the biggest question that 295 00:11:14,078 --> 00:11:19,199 everyone asks especially those that are 296 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,559 even in mining for the past year and 297 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,480 those are for those that are even 298 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:24,000 getting into mining this year are 299 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,680 probably going to see this question be 300 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,679 like what does that mean or i haven't 301 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:32,078 heard of that before but this 302 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:34,719 is a pretty big milestone for 2022 as we 303 00:11:32,078 --> 00:11:36,879 have we haven't confirmed though that 304 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,440 the ethereum merge is gonna happen in 305 00:11:36,879 --> 00:11:41,838 june of this year which is in about four 306 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:44,160 months as of recording this video and so 307 00:11:41,839 --> 00:11:46,480 i just want to dive in pretty deep 308 00:11:44,159 --> 00:11:48,639 regarding this topic as it is a really 309 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:51,200 big topic so for those that don't know 310 00:11:48,639 --> 00:11:53,278 the merge on ethereum right eventually 311 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,440 ethereum mainnet will merge with the 312 00:11:53,278 --> 00:11:57,360 beacon chain to the proof of stake 313 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,760 system right this will mark the end of 314 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,680 proof-of-work for ethereum and and that 315 00:11:59,759 --> 00:12:04,720 full transition to proof-of-stake all 316 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:07,359 right so this has been in talks now for 317 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:10,079 a couple years and ethereum has had many 318 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,360 delays regarding this and with sharding 319 00:12:10,078 --> 00:12:14,399 right there's been a lot of delay on 320 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:16,480 that eth2 they've also been renaming 321 00:12:14,399 --> 00:12:18,078 the naming scheme as well here so that's 322 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,240 not going to be called eth2 anymore but 323 00:12:18,078 --> 00:12:23,278 this is basically the path 324 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,879 that has basically happened or is gonna 325 00:12:23,278 --> 00:12:27,200 happen right the merge they said they're 326 00:12:24,879 --> 00:12:30,799 gonna happen in 2022. obviously we 327 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:32,639 haven't had a confirmed date yet okay so 328 00:12:30,799 --> 00:12:35,120 i will definitely update you all in 329 00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:37,440 multiple videos coming up when that will 330 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:40,480 happen and if they've confirmed that the 331 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:43,600 merge is going to happen in june of 2022 332 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:47,360 because the difficulty bomb is going to 333 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:49,120 activate in june of this year 2022 or 334 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,320 then if the merge is going to be delayed 335 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,959 then they'll have to push out the 336 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,879 difficulty bomb thus the block times 337 00:12:52,958 --> 00:12:57,119 will then come back down to about 13 338 00:12:54,879 --> 00:13:00,240 seconds per block which what it is now 339 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:02,320 now let's touch on just what happens 340 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,879 after the merge if the merge happens 341 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:07,680 this year mid-june in about four months 342 00:13:04,879 --> 00:13:10,159 as of recording this video that means 343 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:13,039 there is a lot of hash rate that is 344 00:13:10,159 --> 00:13:16,559 gonna be essentially either turned off 345 00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:18,879 or is gonna move to a bunch of other 346 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:21,919 coins other proof of work coins that are 347 00:13:18,879 --> 00:13:23,278 gpu mineable and probably uh this going 348 00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:26,319 on what to mine is probably a better 349 00:13:23,278 --> 00:13:29,278 representation of different coins that 350 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:31,760 are gpu minable because what to mine.com 351 00:13:29,278 --> 00:13:34,000 shows the gpus that you can use for 352 00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:36,639 mining and it shows the relative 353 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:39,198 profitability of these different coins 354 00:13:36,639 --> 00:13:42,480 right so we got rio we got equilibria we 355 00:13:39,198 --> 00:13:44,799 got flux on here it shows nice hash bit 356 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:47,600 tube cash zero you know there's a whole 357 00:13:44,799 --> 00:13:50,159 bunch of different coins here so the 358 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,800 prospect here that i want to touch on 359 00:13:50,159 --> 00:13:55,039 and potential is that and it's not 360 00:13:52,799 --> 00:13:56,958 financial advice is that once the merge 361 00:13:55,039 --> 00:13:59,439 happens right there's going to have to 362 00:13:56,958 --> 00:14:01,679 be all of this hash rate is going to be 363 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:04,880 moving over to 364 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:07,679 other coins there's a lot of graphics 365 00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:09,679 cards mining on ethereum right now and 366 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:12,000 there is also that other side of it of 367 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,638 asics on ethereum network right those 368 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,440 asics are purpose built only combine the 369 00:14:14,639 --> 00:14:19,839 eth hash algorithm there are other eth 370 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:21,839 hash algorithms out there okay so if 371 00:14:19,839 --> 00:14:24,639 those asics right let's say let's just 372 00:14:21,839 --> 00:14:27,040 say for example 50 of the network on 373 00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:28,480 ethereum is asics 374 00:14:27,039 --> 00:14:31,198 so let's just say 375 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:34,079 that 50 of those asics are gonna go to 376 00:14:31,198 --> 00:14:36,799 let's say ethereum classic or maybe 377 00:14:34,078 --> 00:14:39,359 uh cork chain or metaverse as these 378 00:14:36,799 --> 00:14:41,838 coins are ethash algorithms so those 379 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,278 asics can move over to those ethash 380 00:14:41,839 --> 00:14:46,800 coins callisto ether gem so that's right 381 00:14:45,278 --> 00:14:49,120 that's another thing to think about 382 00:14:46,799 --> 00:14:51,039 that's basically if you do the math here 383 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,600 of all these different hash rates for 384 00:14:51,039 --> 00:14:55,039 these other eth coins and if you did the 385 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,800 math of 50 386 00:14:55,039 --> 00:14:59,838 of the ethereum network hash rate which 387 00:14:56,799 --> 00:15:02,399 is over one petahash if my math is 388 00:14:59,839 --> 00:15:04,639 correct there one peta hash is a lot so 389 00:15:02,399 --> 00:15:06,480 let's say half of that is going to be 390 00:15:04,639 --> 00:15:09,519 500 391 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:11,839 tera hash 500 terahash per se so with 392 00:15:09,519 --> 00:15:14,240 that right 500 terahash where is that 393 00:15:11,839 --> 00:15:16,399 gonna go it's gonna move over probably 394 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,560 to all these other coins but these other 395 00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:21,519 coins right now are not in the terra 396 00:15:18,559 --> 00:15:23,599 hash so that is definitely going to 397 00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:26,879 potentially render them pretty much 398 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:29,680 unprofitable by a huge margin and so the 399 00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:31,759 scenario as of now as of the current 400 00:15:29,679 --> 00:15:34,159 prices of these coins if all that hash 401 00:15:31,759 --> 00:15:35,839 rate moved over to all these other coins 402 00:15:34,159 --> 00:15:38,159 it would render it useless right and i 403 00:15:35,839 --> 00:15:40,480 didn't touch on the other 50 of the 404 00:15:38,159 --> 00:15:42,159 network hash rate which could be gpus 405 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,360 right the graphics cards which are 406 00:15:42,159 --> 00:15:48,000 commodity hardware are able to mine 407 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,600 pretty much are very versatile in mining 408 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,198 all these other coins that you see on 409 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:54,159 what to mine and so that means the other 410 00:15:51,198 --> 00:15:56,879 50 of this network hash rate is going to 411 00:15:54,159 --> 00:15:58,799 go into these other coins potentially 412 00:15:56,879 --> 00:16:00,559 and as of the prices of these coins 413 00:15:58,799 --> 00:16:03,519 right now with the current network 414 00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:06,000 conditions network hash rate block times 415 00:16:03,519 --> 00:16:08,560 everything that the equilibrium is going 416 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:11,120 to pretty much render these all 417 00:16:08,559 --> 00:16:12,799 unprofitable as of right now so the 418 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,759 potential prospect okay this is 419 00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:18,159 definitely speculation and not financial 420 00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:20,560 advice is that there could be potential 421 00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:21,439 where some of those coins could go up in 422 00:16:20,559 --> 00:16:23,679 price 423 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,920 right and carry the crypto mining 424 00:16:23,679 --> 00:16:27,679 community i think a lot of those people 425 00:16:25,919 --> 00:16:29,360 talk about ravencoin or talk about 426 00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:31,120 ethereum classic or 427 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,440 hell it could have it could be a on it 428 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:35,839 could be conflux it could be swap you 429 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:38,959 know any of these coins could just go up 430 00:16:35,839 --> 00:16:40,880 in price and appreciate and then it will 431 00:16:38,958 --> 00:16:43,119 then be calculated on what to mine right 432 00:16:40,879 --> 00:16:45,120 depending on the price of the coin and 433 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:48,000 the network hash rate of the coin could 434 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,879 then very well stay profitable for 435 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:53,759 miners but that's a really big if and 436 00:16:50,879 --> 00:16:56,000 that's a really big risk if those coins 437 00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:58,240 are going to appreciate in price right 438 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,240 that's a big if but i do want to touch 439 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,519 on the other side of it is you know 440 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,120 mining for long term as i've personally 441 00:17:03,519 --> 00:17:07,759 been seeing mining throughout the bear 442 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,838 markets right if we have a crypto winner 443 00:17:07,759 --> 00:17:12,318 in mining then that means there's going 444 00:17:09,838 --> 00:17:15,359 to be a flood of gpus a flood of 445 00:17:12,318 --> 00:17:16,879 graphics cards just piling on ebay 446 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,318 everything's going to be extremely cheap 447 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,120 i remember during the last bear market 448 00:17:18,318 --> 00:17:22,959 we had that rx 580s were like sixty 449 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,678 dollars eighty dollars you know radeon 450 00:17:22,959 --> 00:17:28,558 sevens were you know under 400 350 451 00:17:25,679 --> 00:17:30,798 dollars 1080 ti's were 200 to 250 452 00:17:28,558 --> 00:17:32,240 dollars during the bear market and so 453 00:17:30,798 --> 00:17:33,679 there are times when hardware were 454 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,839 really cheap to buy 455 00:17:33,679 --> 00:17:37,679 but that's not to say right that goes 456 00:17:35,839 --> 00:17:39,199 along with is there going to be any 457 00:17:37,679 --> 00:17:41,280 price appreciation on those other 458 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:43,279 proof-of-work coins that we have 459 00:17:41,279 --> 00:17:45,599 out in the world right out right now 460 00:17:43,279 --> 00:17:47,599 that you can mine on commodity hardware 461 00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:49,519 like gpus and i didn't even touch on 462 00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:51,519 asic mining which i do want to touch on 463 00:17:49,519 --> 00:17:53,839 later on in this video right i want to 464 00:17:51,519 --> 00:17:56,079 touch on that later on but with graphics 465 00:17:53,839 --> 00:17:58,720 cards right graphics cards are commodity 466 00:17:56,079 --> 00:18:00,399 hardware easily can mine a lot of 467 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,400 different coins out there 468 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:05,200 on the market right now it's just not 469 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:07,679 only ethereum but the question it begs 470 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:09,440 the question is if any of those other 471 00:18:07,679 --> 00:18:11,600 proof-of-work coins are going to 472 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:14,160 appreciate and price and be able to 473 00:18:11,599 --> 00:18:16,319 handle the network hash rate that is 474 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:19,279 going to be flooding onto all of these 475 00:18:16,319 --> 00:18:21,678 other coins on the networks okay that is 476 00:18:19,279 --> 00:18:24,079 the biggest question that is going to 477 00:18:21,679 --> 00:18:25,600 come up and nobody knows okay nobody 478 00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:27,199 knows what's going to happen 479 00:18:25,599 --> 00:18:29,918 i don't have a crystal ball i'm just 480 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:32,798 giving the scenario i guess scenarios 481 00:18:29,919 --> 00:18:34,320 that could happen uh once ethereum moves 482 00:18:32,798 --> 00:18:36,960 to proof of stake right this is the 483 00:18:34,319 --> 00:18:39,200 biggest milestone in proof-of-work 484 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,440 history in terms of gpu mining as we all 485 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:44,000 know ethereum has been carrying the gpu 486 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:46,080 mining community because again ethereum 487 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,240 has gone up so much in price 488 00:18:46,079 --> 00:18:50,879 that it's been extremely profitable 489 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,880 versus what it was during the bear 490 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,520 market which we've touched on many times 491 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:58,320 before so anyways guys that is it that's 492 00:18:55,519 --> 00:19:00,639 really the biggest question right is gpu 493 00:18:58,319 --> 00:19:02,480 mining still worth it in 2022 but 494 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,799 ethereum moving to proof of stake is 495 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,640 going to be the biggest desiring factor 496 00:19:04,798 --> 00:19:09,038 for a lot of people and so it kind of 497 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,640 ties into what i talked about earlier in 498 00:19:09,038 --> 00:19:12,160 question number two is what is your 499 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,559 personal conviction 500 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,919 and also number one right what is your 501 00:19:14,558 --> 00:19:18,399 electrical cost 502 00:19:15,919 --> 00:19:20,640 that's all going to matter especially 503 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:24,160 because even during the bear market last 504 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:26,400 of 2018 to 2020 even if you had eight i 505 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,558 think even 10 cent kilowatt hour you 506 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,559 were still profitable you were still 507 00:19:28,558 --> 00:19:34,240 profitable and i have videos back then 508 00:19:30,558 --> 00:19:36,240 in 2018 2020 showing that you know even 509 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,960 at 10 cents kilowatt hour you were still 510 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,880 able to break even but again right once 511 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,120 the merge happens and if these those 512 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:45,440 other coins will able to be profitable 513 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:47,678 or not begs the question right that that 514 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:50,480 remains to be seen so we will see all 515 00:19:47,679 --> 00:19:52,720 right next question is how expensive is 516 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,240 buying gpu mining hardware right now so 517 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,319 this is a question 518 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:59,359 potentially for new miners coming in may 519 00:19:56,319 --> 00:20:02,558 be wondering and may not understand 520 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:04,639 how you know gpu pricing goes up when 521 00:20:02,558 --> 00:20:06,319 it's profitable to mine and so that 522 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,320 really that's that's like the biggest 523 00:20:06,319 --> 00:20:09,918 thing right so as the market has been 524 00:20:08,319 --> 00:20:12,319 going up in terms of prices for all 525 00:20:09,919 --> 00:20:14,080 these coins that mining profitability 526 00:20:12,319 --> 00:20:16,720 relative to what the network hash rates 527 00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:18,720 are hasn't gone up as high as what the 528 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,519 prices have been not a lot of the 529 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:24,159 hardware has come online enough to take 530 00:20:21,519 --> 00:20:26,720 advantage of these prices that we are 531 00:20:24,159 --> 00:20:28,480 seeing on like ethereum per se or any 532 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,480 other coin that you see out there but 533 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,798 again that question goes along with 534 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:35,038 number three once ethereum moves off to 535 00:20:32,798 --> 00:20:36,319 proof of stake all that hash rate is 536 00:20:35,038 --> 00:20:37,279 probably going to render those other 537 00:20:36,319 --> 00:20:40,158 coins 538 00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:42,480 unprofitable but again depends on if 539 00:20:40,159 --> 00:20:46,000 those prices of those coins go up so 540 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:48,480 talking about hardware for gpus it's has 541 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,640 been coming down okay like for example 542 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:53,360 30 70 non-lhrs i remember these were 543 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:56,000 going on ebay at the peak i think of may 544 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,038 2021 when things were extremely 545 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,038 profitable 546 00:20:57,038 --> 00:21:01,759 i think like one of these gpus was 547 00:20:59,038 --> 00:21:04,720 making like 15 a day or something and 548 00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:06,720 you can see that these 37 lhrs back then 549 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:09,120 i wish i had the example up but it was i 550 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:11,759 think on ebay at most like two thousand 551 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:14,239 dollars i think somebody bought recently 552 00:21:11,759 --> 00:21:17,119 sold two thousand dollars for a 30 70 553 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:19,038 lhr and now they're about under a 554 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,279 thousand dollars if not twelve hundred 555 00:21:19,038 --> 00:21:23,200 dollars here as of recording this video 556 00:21:21,279 --> 00:21:25,200 so this is february 10th just to have a 557 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,558 date here as i'm recording this video of 558 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:30,159 these numbers that we're seeing of 559 00:21:26,558 --> 00:21:32,359 people buying these non-lhr gpus on ebay 560 00:21:30,159 --> 00:21:35,679 now let's say we go to 561 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:38,399 zotacstore.com and they always have gpus 562 00:21:35,679 --> 00:21:40,798 in stock now like for example the 3070 563 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:43,120 ti's they have for 1100 564 00:21:40,798 --> 00:21:44,480 which are these are really bad in terms 565 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,000 of thermals you definitely have to 566 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:48,480 change the thermal pads 567 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,960 check out gprises.com that little shell 568 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:53,038 here they have their new thermal pads 569 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,558 and gpu thermal pad chart i wish i had 570 00:21:53,038 --> 00:21:56,640 it up here they sell thermal pads that 571 00:21:54,558 --> 00:21:59,599 you can replace on the 370 ti if you 572 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,600 wanted and probably 30 90s 3080 tis as 573 00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:04,879 well but you can see here generally the 574 00:22:01,599 --> 00:22:07,119 prices of gpus have been coming down so 575 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:09,120 just to stress right just to stress that 576 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:11,038 since prices have been you know coming 577 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,719 down from the highs of when bitcoin was 578 00:22:11,038 --> 00:22:15,679 60 000. ethereum was like 45 almost 5 579 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,319 000 580 00:22:15,679 --> 00:22:19,759 that prices are coming down since then 581 00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:21,599 so that's just something to be mindful 582 00:22:19,759 --> 00:22:24,079 of and since you are going to be paying 583 00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:27,119 a lot higher prices like this is not 584 00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:29,359 msrp okay this is not msrp prices these 585 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:32,558 are definitely i would say on zotac 586 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:34,879 store.com scalped prices and you know 587 00:22:32,558 --> 00:22:37,599 not only that i'm on aaawave.com they 588 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:40,080 also have gpus here gpus here for sale 589 00:22:37,599 --> 00:22:42,079 but the prices are are still they're 590 00:22:40,079 --> 00:22:43,599 they're not cheap like these are still 591 00:22:42,079 --> 00:22:46,240 expensive prices 592 00:22:43,599 --> 00:22:48,480 for these gpus like they should be a lot 593 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:51,440 lower than what they what they should be 594 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:53,519 like 30 60 gaming x trio for 749 like 595 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,159 that's that's still expensive and if we 596 00:22:53,519 --> 00:22:58,158 go to on newegg for example newegg is 597 00:22:56,159 --> 00:23:01,360 horrible newegg is actually the prices 598 00:22:58,159 --> 00:23:03,440 i've been seeing here is even higher 599 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,359 so you're going to be paying a higher 600 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,880 premium for 601 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,678 for mining if especially if you want to 602 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:11,520 mine right now right because it's still 603 00:23:09,679 --> 00:23:13,360 profitable even if you you know you go 604 00:23:11,519 --> 00:23:16,879 to what to mine you know let's just do 605 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:18,479 130 70 ti for example hit calculate i 606 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,200 even forgot to touch on that you know 607 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,400 the lhr gpus or any gpu you can even do 608 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,798 dual mining now 609 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,080 so with the lhr gpus it renders them a 610 00:23:24,798 --> 00:23:29,279 little bit more profitable because you 611 00:23:26,079 --> 00:23:31,439 can dual mine ethereum and a lithium 612 00:23:29,279 --> 00:23:33,200 with the new t-rex miner right as of 613 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,519 recording right now february 10th there 614 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,600 is potential to get more profitability 615 00:23:35,519 --> 00:23:38,798 off your lhr cards which is great right 616 00:23:37,599 --> 00:23:40,798 could be a lot higher than what we're 617 00:23:38,798 --> 00:23:43,038 seeing right now on these numbers but 618 00:23:40,798 --> 00:23:45,038 just just to mention that right to go 619 00:23:43,038 --> 00:23:47,679 further on in the future there has been 620 00:23:45,038 --> 00:23:50,079 updates on these mining softwares that 621 00:23:47,679 --> 00:23:52,480 have opened the ability to mine other 622 00:23:50,079 --> 00:23:53,759 coins especially with the lhr cards so 623 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,278 that that makes it a little bit more 624 00:23:53,759 --> 00:23:57,278 profitable per se 625 00:23:55,278 --> 00:24:01,038 and it gives you a little bit more more 626 00:23:57,278 --> 00:24:02,720 incentive right but as you know mining 627 00:24:01,038 --> 00:24:05,359 goes up in terms of profitability just 628 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:07,839 to touch on history here you know defy 629 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,759 you know since the d5 summer of 2020 630 00:24:07,839 --> 00:24:12,720 which i mentioned back in i think june 631 00:24:09,759 --> 00:24:14,558 or july is really when the transaction 632 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,960 fees for ethereum started ramping up for 633 00:24:14,558 --> 00:24:18,960 mining right and so really this doesn't 634 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,558 matter anymore but i was just you know 635 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,319 going along with the fact that when the 636 00:24:20,558 --> 00:24:25,359 prices of crypto started going up along 637 00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:27,439 with d5 uh decentralized finance is that 638 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,839 that block rewards on ethereum were 639 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,600 really high and so miners were able to 640 00:24:29,839 --> 00:24:34,720 pretty much get those rewards like 641 00:24:31,599 --> 00:24:36,719 sometimes 8 10 15 30 ethereum per block 642 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:39,000 and those were amazing times right we 643 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:42,480 were so profitable back then and then 644 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:44,480 eip1559 came out and thus that means the 645 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:47,200 block rewards and we also get the minor 646 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,798 tip but the transactions are then burned 647 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,880 which a lot of the transaction fees are 648 00:24:48,798 --> 00:24:52,319 now have a lot has been burned on the 649 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,440 ethereum network now so we've been 650 00:24:52,319 --> 00:24:59,119 getting less and less ethereum per se 651 00:24:55,440 --> 00:25:01,679 but the dollar value still generally is 652 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,519 high relative to what the 653 00:25:01,679 --> 00:25:05,519 what the price of ethereum is and 654 00:25:03,519 --> 00:25:07,599 network hash rate all that stuff so it's 655 00:25:05,519 --> 00:25:10,158 still okay right profitable is still 656 00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:11,759 okay up until uh the merge happens right 657 00:25:10,159 --> 00:25:14,320 goes along with with question number 658 00:25:11,759 --> 00:25:16,720 three when the merge happens we don't 659 00:25:14,319 --> 00:25:18,879 know you know it like i said right it 660 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,319 could be then a lot of gpus a lot of 661 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,919 people will not be able to stay 662 00:25:20,319 --> 00:25:24,798 profitable depending on their electrical 663 00:25:21,919 --> 00:25:27,038 costs is when they will need to 664 00:25:24,798 --> 00:25:29,119 liquidate their gpus now this kind of 665 00:25:27,038 --> 00:25:31,200 ties into you know number question 666 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,599 number five let's go into this is gpu 667 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,600 mining hardware considered an asset and 668 00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:38,639 i'm gonna say 100 669 00:25:35,599 --> 00:25:41,678 yes because there have been many times 670 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:43,679 where gpu prices have been a lot more 671 00:25:41,679 --> 00:25:46,960 right for example let's just let's just 672 00:25:43,679 --> 00:25:50,240 do the legendary rx 580 for example rx 673 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:53,200 588 gigabyte card oops eight gigabyte 674 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:57,120 and these cards you know back in the 675 00:25:53,200 --> 00:26:01,120 bear market of uh let's say 2018 2020 676 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:03,839 that these gpus used to cost like 60 80 677 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:05,519 right and so sure you may think of it 678 00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:07,839 buying hardware during the low 679 00:26:05,519 --> 00:26:09,200 profitability times is not a great time 680 00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:11,918 to buy hardware because it's not 681 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:14,480 profitable but right come to think of it 682 00:26:11,919 --> 00:26:16,799 when the prices of these coins go up and 683 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,839 when mining profitability also goes up 684 00:26:16,798 --> 00:26:23,038 is when the prices also go up for the 685 00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:25,839 hardware the hardware which you have 686 00:26:23,038 --> 00:26:28,879 also appreciates and price as crypto 687 00:26:25,839 --> 00:26:31,599 mining is profitable so that's just one 688 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:34,960 strategy to think about right and i've 689 00:26:31,599 --> 00:26:36,399 personally seen my hardware and the 690 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,600 coins that you're mining that you're 691 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,679 huddling also appreciate together so 692 00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:44,319 that's a strategy there right but that 693 00:26:41,679 --> 00:26:46,559 is obviously a big risk to take on if 694 00:26:44,319 --> 00:26:48,240 you are going to huddle and also buy 695 00:26:46,558 --> 00:26:50,639 hardware for cheap right there's 696 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,720 potential that it may not go up in price 697 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:56,080 but right we've seen that the recent 698 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:58,000 run-up with ethereum it it's it's 699 00:26:56,079 --> 00:26:59,359 definitely happened right we've seen 700 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,519 very high 701 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:04,959 prices of gpus i can't believe someone 702 00:27:01,519 --> 00:27:07,038 bought an rx 588 gigabyte card for 420 703 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,038 like for me personally since i've seen 704 00:27:07,038 --> 00:27:10,640 prices for x 580s be like sixty dollars 705 00:27:09,038 --> 00:27:13,440 to a hundred dollars 706 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:15,600 i cannot stomach buying an rx 580 for 707 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:18,080 this price right now it just it just 708 00:27:15,599 --> 00:27:21,038 doesn't make sense and honestly i would 709 00:27:18,079 --> 00:27:24,480 probably buy uh gpus that are a bit more 710 00:27:21,038 --> 00:27:27,599 efficient like you know maybe a2000s or 711 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:30,240 maybe uh 6600 xt's you know i forgot to 712 00:27:27,599 --> 00:27:33,119 touch on that but like 6600 xts actually 713 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,798 i will touch on which gpus to be buying 714 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,398 in the future which what is the best gp 715 00:27:34,798 --> 00:27:38,319 to buy that's question number 10. i will 716 00:27:36,398 --> 00:27:39,918 get into that later anyways is gpu 717 00:27:38,319 --> 00:27:41,918 mining hardware considered an asset and 718 00:27:39,919 --> 00:27:43,840 i'm just going to say a straight yes 719 00:27:41,919 --> 00:27:45,919 didn't even touch on with the pandemic 720 00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:48,000 silicon shortage you know 721 00:27:45,919 --> 00:27:50,559 this commodity hardware and especially 722 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,398 with scalpers it has just bolstered the 723 00:27:50,558 --> 00:27:54,798 price of those of these hardware to 724 00:27:52,398 --> 00:27:57,199 become a lot more of have a lot more 725 00:27:54,798 --> 00:28:00,079 value so that's just one way to think 726 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,880 about it but anyways going along next 727 00:28:00,079 --> 00:28:06,480 question is does the return on the 728 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:10,000 investment roi make sense for gpu mining 729 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:11,440 so this question it's it really 730 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,798 with number three actually this goes 731 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,320 along with number three because we 732 00:28:12,798 --> 00:28:17,679 really don't know 733 00:28:14,319 --> 00:28:18,879 for this year how the roi calculation or 734 00:28:17,679 --> 00:28:20,720 analysis 735 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:23,039 can be made i mean we could make 736 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,759 educated guesses roughly right if we 737 00:28:23,038 --> 00:28:27,679 know what we know now if the prices of 738 00:28:25,759 --> 00:28:29,599 of the coins stay the same and then when 739 00:28:27,679 --> 00:28:31,679 ethereum moves to proof of stake it will 740 00:28:29,599 --> 00:28:34,079 render everything pretty much 741 00:28:31,679 --> 00:28:36,480 unprofitable right at current prices i 742 00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:40,240 do have a quick little roi analysis here 743 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:42,798 of a 6600 xt rig just you know six gpus 744 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,079 609 each so the total of the rig here 745 00:28:42,798 --> 00:28:45,440 you can see here three thousand six 746 00:28:44,079 --> 00:28:47,519 hundred fifty nine dollars and ninety 747 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,960 four cents daily profitability currently 748 00:28:47,519 --> 00:28:50,639 on what to mine is eight dollars and 749 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,240 eighty five cents after ten cent 750 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:54,880 kilowatt hour so that's the monthly 751 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:58,079 profit that's the yearly profit but this 752 00:28:54,880 --> 00:29:00,399 is all assuming the numbers of 753 00:28:58,079 --> 00:29:02,398 everything has stayed the same right 754 00:29:00,398 --> 00:29:04,798 prices of ethereum network hash rate 755 00:29:02,398 --> 00:29:07,759 stays the same block times stay the same 756 00:29:04,798 --> 00:29:10,639 block rewards stay the same and we all 757 00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:14,000 know that profitability changes all the 758 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:15,840 time so this analysis here is honestly 759 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,919 it's probably it's gonna be way off for 760 00:29:15,839 --> 00:29:20,079 sure i guess in about four months if it 761 00:29:17,919 --> 00:29:22,720 does happen the merge happens it's it's 762 00:29:20,079 --> 00:29:24,879 gonna drastically these numbers here are 763 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,120 gonna be rendered null basically so i 764 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:30,000 don't think we can really apply this roi 765 00:29:27,119 --> 00:29:31,918 analysis because we are uncertain of 766 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,679 what is going to transpire in terms of 767 00:29:31,919 --> 00:29:35,759 the prices of the coins in the next four 768 00:29:33,679 --> 00:29:37,759 months from now who knows if bitcoin's 769 00:29:35,759 --> 00:29:40,720 gonna go up to 100k bitcoin could go 770 00:29:37,759 --> 00:29:42,879 down to 20k right nobody knows and so 771 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:46,480 when that happens right everything the 772 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:47,679 prices of the roi of your mining rig is 773 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,440 going to change 774 00:29:47,679 --> 00:29:51,440 these you know calculations that we do 775 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,278 in excel it's normally for those that 776 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,759 want to see how long it'll take to pay 777 00:29:53,278 --> 00:29:57,839 off a mining rig and you can see here if 778 00:29:55,759 --> 00:29:59,759 ethereum if we could still mine ethereum 779 00:29:57,839 --> 00:30:01,759 for the next year or two you can see 780 00:29:59,759 --> 00:30:04,960 that the roi today's payoff currently 781 00:30:01,759 --> 00:30:08,398 would be about 413 days with electric of 782 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:10,798 course which i added here okay about 475 783 00:30:08,398 --> 00:30:12,359 dollars electric or a dollar 15 a day at 784 00:30:10,798 --> 00:30:15,839 10 cents kilowatt hour 785 00:30:12,359 --> 00:30:18,000 467 days to pay off now that is pretty 786 00:30:15,839 --> 00:30:20,158 good still really good less than you 787 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,679 know two years than like an average 788 00:30:20,159 --> 00:30:23,360 business i would say maybe three to five 789 00:30:21,679 --> 00:30:26,000 years that would that would churn a 790 00:30:23,359 --> 00:30:27,918 profit so mining we as we knew like last 791 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,240 year a lot of people were able to get 792 00:30:27,919 --> 00:30:32,399 their money back or at least break even 793 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:34,159 on their rigs right and because mining 794 00:30:32,398 --> 00:30:36,000 profitability was great for about a year 795 00:30:34,159 --> 00:30:38,320 and a half since you know defy summer 796 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:40,159 which i've said before right now 2022 797 00:30:38,319 --> 00:30:43,038 since we have a massive milestone i 798 00:30:40,159 --> 00:30:45,440 guess the roi analysis for that is 799 00:30:43,038 --> 00:30:47,519 it's it's really hard to it's really 800 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,240 hard to guesstimate it we can just do 801 00:30:47,519 --> 00:30:52,240 educated guesses but assuming that the 802 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,319 prices of the other proof-of-work coins 803 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,919 that everyone's gonna move to 804 00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:58,720 whether or not they're gonna appreciate 805 00:30:55,919 --> 00:31:00,960 in price begs the question ultimately if 806 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:03,120 we have another like crypto winner a 807 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:05,360 long bear market then 808 00:31:03,119 --> 00:31:07,518 huddling the crypto up until not 809 00:31:05,359 --> 00:31:09,439 financial advice but if the next cycle 810 00:31:07,519 --> 00:31:12,159 of bitcoin comes about in the next 811 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:14,320 couple years who knows right then price 812 00:31:12,159 --> 00:31:17,039 appreciation of the coins that you've 813 00:31:14,319 --> 00:31:18,960 been mining and huddling during the bear 814 00:31:17,038 --> 00:31:21,440 market right during the crypto winner 815 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:22,960 and hopefully right hopefully that means 816 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,600 that other people will turn off their 817 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:28,240 mining rigs and the network hash rates 818 00:31:25,599 --> 00:31:30,319 will start going down and everyone will 819 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,720 then be able to accumulate accumulating 820 00:31:30,319 --> 00:31:34,558 the coins up until the next cycle right 821 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,120 but that's that's that's a big risk 822 00:31:34,558 --> 00:31:38,639 right that goes back to the strategy of 823 00:31:37,119 --> 00:31:40,398 if you can pay for your electrical bill 824 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,799 out of your pocket and huddle the crypto 825 00:31:40,398 --> 00:31:45,599 up until the next cycle per se right of 826 00:31:42,798 --> 00:31:46,398 bitcoin then the roi will then be 827 00:31:45,599 --> 00:31:48,879 achieved 828 00:31:46,398 --> 00:31:50,879 when that happens basically your your 829 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:53,440 break even of getting your money back 830 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:56,320 which ultimately which i have done 831 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:58,640 before which you mine you know in 2017 832 00:31:56,319 --> 00:31:59,918 to 2020 you had all that ethereum we've 833 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,440 been mining all that extra ethereum 834 00:31:59,919 --> 00:32:03,600 because the network hash rate for 835 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,919 ethereum during that time was really low 836 00:32:03,599 --> 00:32:08,879 right versus what it is now everyone's 837 00:32:05,919 --> 00:32:10,559 getting less and less of the pie so that 838 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,000 when you've huddled a lot more of that 839 00:32:10,558 --> 00:32:14,079 crypto and you've seen the price 840 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:16,398 appreciation that we've had up until 841 00:32:14,079 --> 00:32:18,879 recently right you guys have seen 842 00:32:16,398 --> 00:32:21,278 they've gone up a lot and it's just yeah 843 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:24,000 your portfolio is just incredible 844 00:32:21,278 --> 00:32:27,119 incredible okay next question can i mine 845 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:29,839 and live off crypto mining full time and 846 00:32:27,119 --> 00:32:31,119 this is probably an easy one i mean if 847 00:32:29,839 --> 00:32:34,000 you have 848 00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:35,918 cheap expenses and not only cheap 849 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:38,000 electric but if you're most likely gonna 850 00:32:35,919 --> 00:32:39,679 do this full-time and you're gonna rent 851 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,000 out a warehouse or you know purchase 852 00:32:39,679 --> 00:32:43,200 land or purchase a warehouse you know 853 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,919 you're going to incur some other 854 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:48,080 expenses such as like insurance security 855 00:32:45,919 --> 00:32:50,960 systems i don't know fire prevention 856 00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:52,240 systems internet dual internet probably 857 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,480 you you name it right you're going to 858 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,720 spend money on a lot of stuff to upkeep 859 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:59,038 or maintain the warehouse for mining if 860 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,600 you're doing that and so in a like a 861 00:32:59,038 --> 00:33:04,398 perspective of having you know let's 862 00:33:01,599 --> 00:33:07,839 just say let's say you had a thousand 30 863 00:33:04,398 --> 00:33:09,359 80 30 80 lhrs okay hit calculate and you 864 00:33:07,839 --> 00:33:11,599 had four cents 865 00:33:09,359 --> 00:33:14,079 per kilowatt hour right if you had cheap 866 00:33:11,599 --> 00:33:16,000 electric or hopefully had access to 867 00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:17,439 cheap electric which there are some 868 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,519 countries that i've seen that have you 869 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:21,600 know two cents per kilowatt hour there 870 00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:24,240 are some places in canada that have less 871 00:33:21,599 --> 00:33:26,158 than two cents per kilowatt hour and 872 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:28,159 that's in canadian right in usd that 873 00:33:26,159 --> 00:33:29,519 would be like one cent or something but 874 00:33:28,159 --> 00:33:30,880 anyways yeah there are countries around 875 00:33:29,519 --> 00:33:33,200 the world that have cheap electric for 876 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,880 instance if you had a thousand thirty 877 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,440 eighties you would be generating about 878 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:40,720 thirty four hundred dollars a day your 879 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:43,038 electrical bill would be about 230 bucks 880 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:46,000 a day versus how much you're making this 881 00:33:43,038 --> 00:33:48,158 is like this is life-changing right this 882 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,960 is life-changing as of the current 883 00:33:48,159 --> 00:33:52,880 prices of crypto and profitability right 884 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:55,600 now right right now 885 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:58,159 as you can see with a thousand 30 80 886 00:33:55,599 --> 00:34:00,000 lhrs you're spending 200 a day in 887 00:33:58,159 --> 00:34:02,880 electric you're able to churn out an 888 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,720 extra like 3 200 bucks a day and then 889 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,880 maybe minus out all the other expenses 890 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,960 that you have daily or even monthly 891 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,800 you're still that this is life-changing 892 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,800 money if you're able to generate about a 893 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,800 hundred thousand dollars a month that's 894 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:17,039 incredible right that that is a 895 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,800 possibility for some people that have 896 00:34:17,039 --> 00:34:20,878 the ability to be able to get you know 897 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:23,039 cheap electric price uh cheaper just 898 00:34:20,878 --> 00:34:25,598 have cheaper expenses versus how much 899 00:34:23,039 --> 00:34:28,960 you're mining you're mining just a lot 900 00:34:25,599 --> 00:34:31,519 right so yes it is possible to live in 901 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,199 mine crypto mining full time honestly 902 00:34:31,519 --> 00:34:35,199 that would be a dream that would be my 903 00:34:33,199 --> 00:34:37,838 dream for sure 904 00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:39,918 but it's the initial cost for sure to 905 00:34:37,838 --> 00:34:42,239 get started because you know having a 906 00:34:39,918 --> 00:34:44,000 thousand thirty eighty lhrs you need 907 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,959 like a lot of money 908 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,719 plus 909 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,398 i didn't even talk about the electrical 910 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,759 setup for something like a warehouse 911 00:34:48,398 --> 00:34:52,239 could it could cost 912 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:54,240 over six digits maybe even seven 913 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,078 depending how much megawatts you're 914 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:58,799 going to install in your warehouse right 915 00:34:56,079 --> 00:35:00,640 for mining so i know that another thing 916 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,880 to talk about like if you want to live 917 00:35:00,639 --> 00:35:05,039 in mine off crypto mining full time 918 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,640 is not only do you need cheap electric 919 00:35:05,039 --> 00:35:08,960 right and during those times right 920 00:35:06,639 --> 00:35:11,519 during the bear market even if you had 921 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:14,480 cheap electric some guys were still able 922 00:35:11,519 --> 00:35:16,559 to be profitable even above eight cents 923 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:18,960 per kilowatt hour i remember i had 924 00:35:16,559 --> 00:35:20,880 profit videos during the bear market and 925 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,280 if you had eight cents or higher i 926 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:25,680 believe you were still good like you 927 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:27,920 were still generally profitable during 928 00:35:25,679 --> 00:35:30,159 the last bear market that is upcoming of 929 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,599 course begs the question we have no idea 930 00:35:30,159 --> 00:35:33,440 what's going to transpire after the 931 00:35:31,599 --> 00:35:36,079 merge i mean we have an idea if it's 932 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:38,079 going to play out or not is we was what 933 00:35:36,079 --> 00:35:40,240 we'll we'll see when that time comes 934 00:35:38,079 --> 00:35:41,839 okay next question this video is 935 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,759 extremely long hopefully you guys are 936 00:35:41,838 --> 00:35:45,519 still here uh let me know i think we're 937 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,359 like halfway there which is pretty funny 938 00:35:45,519 --> 00:35:49,119 anyways next question should i get into 939 00:35:47,358 --> 00:35:51,358 asic mining or gpu mining or something 940 00:35:49,119 --> 00:35:53,920 else helium hard drive etc 941 00:35:51,358 --> 00:35:56,960 all right so this is 942 00:35:53,920 --> 00:36:00,240 a question i can't really answer 943 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:01,760 definitively as there is obviously i 944 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,000 can't predict what's going to be 945 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:06,079 profitable in the future again it goes 946 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,599 back to the whole like you know when 947 00:36:06,079 --> 00:36:10,839 ethereum moves to proof of stake in 948 00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:13,519 terms of asic mining that does pose an 949 00:36:10,838 --> 00:36:16,320 interesting perspective i guess in terms 950 00:36:13,519 --> 00:36:18,320 of how mining profitability for asic 951 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,079 miners it has been great for them as 952 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:22,240 well for the past 953 00:36:20,079 --> 00:36:24,240 year and a half two years now since uh 954 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,319 bitcoin went up to 60k 955 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:28,399 ever since then right we can see we can 956 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:31,280 see here not only ethereum asics are 957 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:33,680 profitable but we got kadena right these 958 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:37,119 kd5s kd6s 959 00:36:33,679 --> 00:36:39,440 ibling bmk1 for kadena mining so kadena 960 00:36:37,119 --> 00:36:41,838 brings an interesting prospect there 961 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:44,159 assuming the price of kadena stays this 962 00:36:41,838 --> 00:36:46,159 level or higher if the price of kadena 963 00:36:44,159 --> 00:36:47,920 keeps going up assuming it can carry 964 00:36:46,159 --> 00:36:50,159 everyone who's been mining cadena with 965 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:52,400 their asic miners litecoin mining again 966 00:36:50,159 --> 00:36:53,838 very popular it's the script algo and 967 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:56,079 there's a lot of different litecoin 968 00:36:53,838 --> 00:36:58,078 asics out there uh notably a lot of 969 00:36:56,079 --> 00:37:00,160 those gold shell mini doges and stuff 970 00:36:58,079 --> 00:37:01,039 but there's an l7 i believe that's out 971 00:37:00,159 --> 00:37:05,838 now 972 00:37:01,039 --> 00:37:09,440 and you know l3 plus and uh in a silicon 973 00:37:05,838 --> 00:37:11,119 ltc master like those are still okay as 974 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,119 of right now right nine they're making 975 00:37:11,119 --> 00:37:14,960 like ten dollars but relative to the 976 00:37:13,119 --> 00:37:17,440 price of those coins and what the 977 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:20,079 network hash rate is right litecoin hash 978 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:24,159 rate has been constantly going up it's 979 00:37:20,079 --> 00:37:26,480 still not as high as it was in 2019 when 980 00:37:24,159 --> 00:37:28,480 i know a lot of those l3 pluses got 981 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:30,079 thrown into the garbage basic mining for 982 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,960 litecoin could be interesting in the 983 00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:35,440 future but i'm not quite sure as i know 984 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:38,240 as bitcoin either goes up or goes down 985 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,599 in price usually everything follows it 986 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:42,159 right usually 987 00:37:39,599 --> 00:37:44,880 so with bitcoin mining even i think 988 00:37:42,159 --> 00:37:48,399 bitcoin mining is a great option 989 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:50,599 as well but the barrier to entry as to 990 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:54,960 buying one of these like you know 991 00:37:50,599 --> 00:37:56,880 s19js or you know s19jpro 992 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,199 these things as of recording right now 993 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:01,119 they're still like 12 grand right and if 994 00:37:59,199 --> 00:38:04,879 you go to asic minor value and you can 995 00:38:01,119 --> 00:38:06,838 see s19jpro let's just say 104 terahash 996 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:10,000 it only generates about 997 00:38:06,838 --> 00:38:12,480 13.69 a day right after your 998 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:14,480 your electrical cost which these things 999 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:17,039 these asic miners are not easy to run at 1000 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:19,920 home right it's not easy mind you there 1001 00:38:17,039 --> 00:38:22,559 are ways to keep them you know quiet or 1002 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:25,200 cool per se but you know these take a 1003 00:38:22,559 --> 00:38:27,519 lot of power for what you're generating 1004 00:38:25,199 --> 00:38:30,319 at this moment right if the price of 1005 00:38:27,519 --> 00:38:33,119 bitcoin doesn't go up and if it does 1006 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:35,359 generally start going down then you know 1007 00:38:33,119 --> 00:38:38,160 the prospect of bitcoin mining at home 1008 00:38:35,358 --> 00:38:40,639 it becomes uh less and less but if you 1009 00:38:38,159 --> 00:38:42,639 do believe in the long-term goal right 1010 00:38:40,639 --> 00:38:44,319 but again it goes back to the personal 1011 00:38:42,639 --> 00:38:46,239 conviction of 1012 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,359 why you're into crypto and especially if 1013 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,919 you're going to be bitcoin mining or 1014 00:38:47,358 --> 00:38:51,519 asic mining then it doesn't matter right 1015 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,440 it then doesn't matter right if you're 1016 00:38:51,519 --> 00:38:54,559 able to you know hopefully pay for your 1017 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,320 electrical bill if you have cheap 1018 00:38:54,559 --> 00:38:58,639 electric but if you had like 35 cents 1019 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:01,440 per kilowatt hour and you're gonna be s 1020 00:38:58,639 --> 00:39:04,239 19j pro bitcoin mining at home then 1021 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:06,720 that's going to be pretty harsh not only 1022 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:09,199 is there asic mining right of course 1023 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,639 there is uh gp mining which we've talked 1024 00:39:09,199 --> 00:39:12,559 before talked about before i don't need 1025 00:39:10,639 --> 00:39:15,519 to mention that but what about like 1026 00:39:12,559 --> 00:39:19,279 helium mining or hard drive mining and 1027 00:39:15,519 --> 00:39:21,519 you know honestly i i am not really into 1028 00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:23,440 helium mining i do have a helium miner 1029 00:39:21,519 --> 00:39:25,838 but i haven't been actively keeping up 1030 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,679 with it i'm not making much every day i 1031 00:39:25,838 --> 00:39:30,078 know that there's over half a million of 1032 00:39:27,679 --> 00:39:32,000 these hot spots on the network now and 1033 00:39:30,079 --> 00:39:34,640 so everyone is getting less and less of 1034 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:36,960 the pie essentially now i've seen a lot 1035 00:39:34,639 --> 00:39:39,358 of people add their you know antennas 1036 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:42,480 and external antennas and wires all that 1037 00:39:39,358 --> 00:39:44,559 stuff to achieve to have more rewards 1038 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:46,000 more hnt and that's all great that's all 1039 00:39:44,559 --> 00:39:48,159 well and good right there's going to be 1040 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,079 a time when i don't think hnt mining is 1041 00:39:48,159 --> 00:39:52,078 going to be very profitable 1042 00:39:50,079 --> 00:39:54,560 but i mean these things these little 1043 00:39:52,079 --> 00:39:56,960 routers basically only take like 10 to 1044 00:39:54,559 --> 00:39:58,719 13 watts so the power consumption is 1045 00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:00,800 really a drop in the bucket when you're 1046 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:02,799 mining it's it takes really nothing at 1047 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:04,800 all nothing at all so it obviously 1048 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,440 doesn't hurt to have these on but the 1049 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,880 used market for these hnt miners is yeah 1050 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:11,119 there's people selling these for over a 1051 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:12,480 thousand dollars and in my opinion i 1052 00:40:11,119 --> 00:40:14,079 yeah i wouldn't i wouldn't spend that 1053 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,000 much there are people buying them for 1054 00:40:14,079 --> 00:40:18,240 like over a thousand still recently sold 1055 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,079 on ebay so well to each of their own 1056 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:22,639 right and then with chia mining for 1057 00:40:20,079 --> 00:40:24,318 example hard drive mining i 1058 00:40:22,639 --> 00:40:25,679 yeah i still have mine going i've been 1059 00:40:24,318 --> 00:40:27,679 wanting to make an update video about 1060 00:40:25,679 --> 00:40:29,838 this but i haven't had the the 1061 00:40:27,679 --> 00:40:32,480 motivation to do it because it's i 1062 00:40:29,838 --> 00:40:33,920 haven't generated a lot of chia i 1063 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,719 haven't even i don't think i've even 1064 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,280 made 1065 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:39,199 one xch yet i haven't even generate 1066 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,200 mined one with my hard drives i'll do 1067 00:40:39,199 --> 00:40:43,358 another video about that later with hnt 1068 00:40:41,199 --> 00:40:45,679 mining but i'm not too positive with 1069 00:40:43,358 --> 00:40:47,440 chia obviously but hey maybe there could 1070 00:40:45,679 --> 00:40:49,759 be some price appreciation down the road 1071 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:51,920 who knows who knows anyways i didn't 1072 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:54,160 touch on like cpu mining or you know 1073 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:56,000 maybe mining with raspberry pi's 1074 00:40:54,159 --> 00:40:59,199 you know all those types of mining it 1075 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:01,199 can be profitable if you stay up with it 1076 00:40:59,199 --> 00:41:03,118 for me personally i haven't kept up with 1077 00:41:01,199 --> 00:41:05,679 that type of mining at all i know 1078 00:41:03,119 --> 00:41:07,358 raptorium was big last year but it kind 1079 00:41:05,679 --> 00:41:09,440 of died off pretty quick as everyone 1080 00:41:07,358 --> 00:41:10,799 jumped onto it so to each his own 1081 00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:13,358 there's going to be a lot of different 1082 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,920 types of mining out there i would just 1083 00:41:13,358 --> 00:41:17,519 be do your due diligence and i can't say 1084 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,318 whether or not one is better than the 1085 00:41:17,519 --> 00:41:23,599 other but in my opinion and in my own 1086 00:41:20,318 --> 00:41:26,318 personal conviction is that gp mining 1087 00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:28,480 is the best i i love it because it's a 1088 00:41:26,318 --> 00:41:30,400 lot more versatile again you can use 1089 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:32,480 your gpus to be mining a lot of 1090 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,480 different coins and if things really 1091 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,719 really go down you know ultimately you 1092 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:38,318 can sell your gpus to a gamer or 1093 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,480 something that the gpus the hardware 1094 00:41:38,318 --> 00:41:43,119 will still have value you can't really 1095 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:45,119 say that with asics i mean you can to an 1096 00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:47,280 extent i mean as profitability goes down 1097 00:41:45,119 --> 00:41:48,960 asics are pretty much worth nothing but 1098 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,040 then when profitability goes up then 1099 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,679 asics are worth a lot and i don't know 1100 00:41:51,039 --> 00:41:56,559 the story with l3 pluses uh you guys 1101 00:41:53,679 --> 00:41:59,039 have seen l3 pluses you know in l7s they 1102 00:41:56,559 --> 00:42:00,480 cost an arm and a leg now right so 1103 00:41:59,039 --> 00:42:02,318 anyways all right so that's that 1104 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:04,480 question guys let's go to the next one 1105 00:42:02,318 --> 00:42:06,880 uh number nine okay so number nine and 1106 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:08,719 onward is just more 1107 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,720 i guess once you get into it there are 1108 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:12,399 some things to consider right it's not 1109 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,399 just you know trying to buy gpus or 1110 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,920 anything like that but number nine here 1111 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,680 real quick once you start scaling your 1112 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:20,159 mining farm heat and heat extraction 1113 00:42:17,679 --> 00:42:22,480 will be your number one concern which 1114 00:42:20,159 --> 00:42:24,639 is true 100 for me in my opinion when i 1115 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:27,119 started ramping up and mining in my 1116 00:42:24,639 --> 00:42:30,239 basement or even in my garage for me 1117 00:42:27,119 --> 00:42:32,640 handling the heat was the hardest thing 1118 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:34,959 to manage it's it's the heat if you 1119 00:42:32,639 --> 00:42:36,879 don't have a way to extract the heat out 1120 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:39,119 of your garage or basement or wherever 1121 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:41,200 you're mining the heat is just gonna sit 1122 00:42:39,119 --> 00:42:43,119 there and it's just gonna ambiently it's 1123 00:42:41,199 --> 00:42:45,439 just gonna be hot so there is a math 1124 00:42:43,119 --> 00:42:48,079 equation to it of you know calculate 1125 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:50,159 calculating your square footage cfm all 1126 00:42:48,079 --> 00:42:53,280 that kind of stuff to see how much cfm 1127 00:42:50,159 --> 00:42:55,358 you need to basically recirculate the 1128 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:57,760 air within a room or your garage 1129 00:42:55,358 --> 00:43:00,000 wherever right and so you need to have 1130 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:02,079 it so that you have enough cfm like a 1131 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:05,039 bunch of exhaust fans that you can 1132 00:43:02,079 --> 00:43:07,680 quickly replace the air in that area so 1133 00:43:05,039 --> 00:43:09,519 that your hardware will stay cool right 1134 00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:11,919 that's that's basically it and i mean to 1135 00:43:09,519 --> 00:43:15,280 this day i still have issues with trying 1136 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:17,358 to cool down my basement or in my garage 1137 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:20,640 it's nice that it's winter time but come 1138 00:43:17,358 --> 00:43:22,000 summertime summertime is going to be a 1139 00:43:20,639 --> 00:43:23,519 definitely 1140 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,199 a bigger issue and i know a lot of you 1141 00:43:23,519 --> 00:43:27,519 guys in the summertime it gets pretty 1142 00:43:25,199 --> 00:43:29,759 hot as well so managing your rigs in 1143 00:43:27,519 --> 00:43:31,920 terms of the heat during the summer it's 1144 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:34,240 it's gonna be it's gonna be rough to say 1145 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,680 the least okay so yeah i skimmed through 1146 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:38,239 that question really that's pretty 1147 00:43:35,679 --> 00:43:39,919 self-explanatory there are ways to do it 1148 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,759 honestly everyone's situation is 1149 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,440 different where they're mining so 1150 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,960 whether or not you'll be able to you 1151 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,920 know cut holes in your walls to the 1152 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:50,318 outside put like massive 15 18 20 inch 1153 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:52,400 exhaust fans in the ceiling that's what 1154 00:43:50,318 --> 00:43:54,639 you'll probably have to do if you are 1155 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:56,720 gonna start scaling your mining farm all 1156 00:43:54,639 --> 00:43:58,879 right next question let's keep it going 1157 00:43:56,719 --> 00:44:01,199 here this is the longest video i've ever 1158 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:04,160 made in my life i think what is the best 1159 00:44:01,199 --> 00:44:07,199 gpu to buy for mining right now 1160 00:44:04,159 --> 00:44:09,199 so this question is definitely gonna be 1161 00:44:07,199 --> 00:44:11,039 a big one as a lot of people like to 1162 00:44:09,199 --> 00:44:14,000 figure out you know what the most 1163 00:44:11,039 --> 00:44:16,079 efficient gpu for mining and normally 1164 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:18,639 we've been doing that basing it on 1165 00:44:16,079 --> 00:44:20,480 ethereum hash rate and the efficiency 1166 00:44:18,639 --> 00:44:22,480 power consumption all that stuff for a 1167 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:24,719 lot of the newer graphics cards that are 1168 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,559 out in the market right now so just a 1169 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,159 quick thing and i and we all know 1170 00:44:26,559 --> 00:44:30,159 ethereum is gonna move off to proof of 1171 00:44:28,159 --> 00:44:32,159 stake in about you know potential four 1172 00:44:30,159 --> 00:44:33,519 to eight months or something so 1173 00:44:32,159 --> 00:44:35,039 right now though 1174 00:44:33,519 --> 00:44:36,960 as of recording right it's about 1175 00:44:35,039 --> 00:44:41,199 february 10th and so 1176 00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:44,400 the 6600 xts and a2000s like these gpus 1177 00:44:41,199 --> 00:44:46,639 are awesome for ethereum extremely 1178 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,960 extremely efficient you can see here 1179 00:44:46,639 --> 00:44:52,159 basing it on the hash per watt so 1180 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:54,720 efficiency is definitely king here as in 1181 00:44:52,159 --> 00:44:56,399 my opinion if the bear market comes or 1182 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:59,039 anything like that you want to make sure 1183 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:00,880 that you are in efficient numbers and 1184 00:44:59,039 --> 00:45:02,800 also depending on your electrical costs 1185 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:05,200 you know it it's going to matter a lot 1186 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:07,599 it will matter a lot and so on ethereum 1187 00:45:05,199 --> 00:45:09,838 yes these two gpus are great but let's 1188 00:45:07,599 --> 00:45:12,480 take a look at another coin like 1189 00:45:09,838 --> 00:45:16,078 ravencoin for example and i just wanted 1190 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:19,280 to clarify the relative percentage in 1191 00:45:16,079 --> 00:45:21,599 terms of the hash per watt amongst these 1192 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:25,119 like all these like 30 series gpus even 1193 00:45:21,599 --> 00:45:26,559 the 6000 series gpus like 6700 xt or 1194 00:45:25,119 --> 00:45:28,160 6800 1195 00:45:26,559 --> 00:45:30,719 you can see here 1196 00:45:28,159 --> 00:45:32,719 that they're all pretty close in terms 1197 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:35,039 of the efficiency percentage here 1198 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:37,598 amongst except for the 6600 xt it looks 1199 00:45:35,039 --> 00:45:39,920 like that one is extremely good on 1200 00:45:37,599 --> 00:45:42,720 mining ravencoin like really really 1201 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:44,079 efficient and actually i'm on the hash 1202 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:46,639 per watt per 1203 00:45:44,079 --> 00:45:48,400 per the software now obviously at the 1204 00:45:46,639 --> 00:45:50,879 gpu it could take a little bit more 1205 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:53,039 power consumption so we could also go by 1206 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:55,838 hash per watt system here but the 6600 1207 00:45:53,039 --> 00:45:57,759 xt it looks like it still wins out 1208 00:45:55,838 --> 00:46:01,599 actually if i just do like this 1209 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:03,920 and yeah 6600 xd is generally extremely 1210 00:46:01,599 --> 00:46:06,000 efficient along with mining ethereum of 1211 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:08,400 course right it's up there so i want to 1212 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:11,440 touch on like the best gpu for mining in 1213 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:14,400 my opinion that is upcoming you know not 1214 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:17,039 for ethereum is gonna be pretty much any 1215 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:20,639 of the i would say 30 series cards like 1216 00:46:17,039 --> 00:46:23,599 even the lhr cards okay the lhr cards 1217 00:46:20,639 --> 00:46:25,199 are actually extremely efficient as well 1218 00:46:23,599 --> 00:46:27,200 okay so you're not going to go wrong in 1219 00:46:25,199 --> 00:46:29,279 terms of in terms of ravencoin mining 1220 00:46:27,199 --> 00:46:30,960 right if ravencoin decides to be the 1221 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:33,119 next profitable coin then everyone's 1222 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,960 gonna flock to that i wish i had the 1223 00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:38,559 numbers like the efficiency numbers for 1224 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:40,639 like flux or ergo or any of those other 1225 00:46:38,559 --> 00:46:43,039 algorithms right as you know those other 1226 00:46:40,639 --> 00:46:45,279 coins could be very prominent as well by 1227 00:46:43,039 --> 00:46:47,199 the time the merge happens and everyone 1228 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:50,000 is going to flock over to all of those 1229 00:46:47,199 --> 00:46:52,559 coins as you guys know i have hopefully 1230 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:55,358 know that i have been creating videos 1231 00:46:52,559 --> 00:46:58,960 that have been enabling the dual mining 1232 00:46:55,358 --> 00:47:01,358 mode for you know on lo miner and t-rex 1233 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,880 miner right these two mining software 1234 00:47:01,358 --> 00:47:05,119 can now dual mine 1235 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:07,599 successfully using a hundred percent of 1236 00:47:05,119 --> 00:47:10,079 the lhr cards so it gives a lot of 1237 00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:13,680 incentive for those that have those lhr 1238 00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:16,800 cards 3070 lhrs 3060 ti 1239 00:47:13,679 --> 00:47:19,838 3080 ti 3070 ti's like all of these 1240 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:22,640 cards are awesome like awesome for 1241 00:47:19,838 --> 00:47:24,480 mining ravencoin mining other coins out 1242 00:47:22,639 --> 00:47:26,639 there and especially 1243 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,318 dual mining now that it is enabled okay 1244 00:47:26,639 --> 00:47:30,960 so i've made a lot of videos regarding 1245 00:47:28,318 --> 00:47:33,599 it t-rex miner um ethereum and the 1246 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:36,639 lithium on the lhr gpus in tbx miner and 1247 00:47:33,599 --> 00:47:38,880 then for like non-lhr or just the rest 1248 00:47:36,639 --> 00:47:41,519 of the gpus lol miner also hasn't 1249 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:43,519 enabled to mine ethereum and ton 1250 00:47:41,519 --> 00:47:45,119 okay so that makes it pretty good as 1251 00:47:43,519 --> 00:47:47,759 well i don't have the efficiency numbers 1252 00:47:45,119 --> 00:47:50,240 here but there is one caveat to ton 1253 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:52,559 mining dual mining tan is that it takes 1254 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:55,598 a lot more power i've noticed on the 30 1255 00:47:52,559 --> 00:47:58,480 series cards and then on the amd cards 1256 00:47:55,599 --> 00:48:00,400 like the 6000 series they don't change 1257 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:03,760 at all in terms of the power consumption 1258 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:06,720 you know in the future i think the 6800 1259 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:08,480 i don't know 6700 xts are going to be 1260 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,959 quite competitive 1261 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:13,920 after the merge so we'll probably have 1262 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:16,720 to test all of these gpus and see what 1263 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:18,720 they do on other algorithms other coins 1264 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:21,439 relative to what the 30 series cards can 1265 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:23,279 do so i don't think anyone anyone that 1266 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,679 has bought in any of the 6000 series 1267 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:28,319 cards is not going to go wrong in terms 1268 00:48:25,679 --> 00:48:30,879 of mining of course the 6000 series gpus 1269 00:48:28,318 --> 00:48:33,519 are going to be great on the prague 1270 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:36,079 variant coins like ravencoin or maybe 1271 00:48:33,519 --> 00:48:37,519 firo firo has moved over to the firo pal 1272 00:48:36,079 --> 00:48:39,920 with the which has the prague pal 1273 00:48:37,519 --> 00:48:42,239 variant and so it's great on amd cards 1274 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,838 but nvidia cards are gonna be a lot 1275 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:47,199 stronger for sure 1276 00:48:43,838 --> 00:48:48,880 on other coins like flux per se you know 1277 00:48:47,199 --> 00:48:51,118 a lot of the echo hash coins are going 1278 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,559 to be a lot stronger and so who knows 1279 00:48:51,119 --> 00:48:54,559 right there there's there's a lot of 1280 00:48:52,559 --> 00:48:57,040 testing that needs to be done i will 1281 00:48:54,559 --> 00:48:58,240 eventually get to that when the time 1282 00:48:57,039 --> 00:48:59,759 comes when 1283 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,039 a lot of hash rate is going to be moving 1284 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:03,839 over because right everyone's going to 1285 00:49:01,039 --> 00:49:06,558 be figuring out okay what's the best gpu 1286 00:49:03,838 --> 00:49:09,358 for mining come the merge or after the 1287 00:49:06,559 --> 00:49:11,599 merge and honestly overall opinion right 1288 00:49:09,358 --> 00:49:15,199 now i'm gonna say that you're not gonna 1289 00:49:11,599 --> 00:49:17,280 go wrong with any of the 30 series cards 1290 00:49:15,199 --> 00:49:19,358 and you probably will not go wrong with 1291 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:21,359 any of the 6000 series cards especially 1292 00:49:19,358 --> 00:49:23,519 the 6600 xts 1293 00:49:21,358 --> 00:49:25,838 as these are really really great for 1294 00:49:23,519 --> 00:49:27,920 mining ravencoin although the prague 1295 00:49:25,838 --> 00:49:30,239 variant coins extremely extremely 1296 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:32,318 efficient but of course if density is a 1297 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,598 factor then yeah you might as well just 1298 00:49:32,318 --> 00:49:36,159 get you know you're going to get the 1299 00:49:33,599 --> 00:49:38,640 bigger gpus uh you'll get more hash rate 1300 00:49:36,159 --> 00:49:40,399 per se but you may use 1301 00:49:38,639 --> 00:49:42,159 you may not get that efficiency number 1302 00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:45,280 but like i said raven coin efficiency 1303 00:49:42,159 --> 00:49:47,519 amongst all the gpus here it's really 1304 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:49,920 it's really close it's really not that 1305 00:49:47,519 --> 00:49:51,440 big of a difference come the merge after 1306 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,599 the merge we're not going to fight too 1307 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:56,800 much regarding what the most efficient 1308 00:49:53,599 --> 00:49:59,359 gpu is for ravencoin most efficient gpu 1309 00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:02,240 for flux most efficient gpu for whatever 1310 00:49:59,358 --> 00:50:04,880 next coin that may be profitable come 1311 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:07,279 after the merge okay so we've seen a lot 1312 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:09,440 of new optimizations come out for 1313 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:11,359 dual mining and even you know we tried 1314 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:13,760 out triple mining ethereum silica and 1315 00:50:11,358 --> 00:50:16,558 elethium if you guys saw that video on 1316 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:19,920 my lhr cards in t-rex miner it just 1317 00:50:16,559 --> 00:50:22,240 makes it even more profitable actually 1318 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:24,800 maybe not because silica actually does 1319 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:27,519 stop mining ethereum for a good 1320 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:29,760 i think 16 times a day i've been wanting 1321 00:50:27,519 --> 00:50:32,000 to do a test on that but i will do that 1322 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:34,720 in another video so to end off guys i 1323 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:38,480 think there is no issue with buying any 1324 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:40,078 of the lhr cards as the 100 unlock is 1325 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:42,159 basically there now you're you're going 1326 00:50:40,079 --> 00:50:44,000 to be fine in that regard and so if 1327 00:50:42,159 --> 00:50:45,598 someone asks like red panda which gp 1328 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,599 would you buy now then for mining i 1329 00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:50,240 honestly if you would find anything at 1330 00:50:47,599 --> 00:50:51,359 msrp of course do not pay scout prices 1331 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,959 of course 1332 00:50:51,358 --> 00:50:56,400 honestly anything that you can get your 1333 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:58,559 hands on like 30 70s 30 60 tis 1334 00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:01,680 lhr of course they're totally fine for 1335 00:50:58,559 --> 00:51:05,040 mining uh like i said 100 unlock for 1336 00:51:01,679 --> 00:51:06,838 dual mining and as well as 3080s those 1337 00:51:05,039 --> 00:51:09,838 are also really good if you can find 1338 00:51:06,838 --> 00:51:11,679 those and uh or maybe even if you want 1339 00:51:09,838 --> 00:51:13,920 to get into professional mining check 1340 00:51:11,679 --> 00:51:16,558 out labradormining.com like they're the 1341 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:18,480 sponsor in today's video as uh if you 1342 00:51:16,559 --> 00:51:21,119 are going to go on a larger scale then 1343 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:23,280 you know the cmp98 jacks is actually an 1344 00:51:21,119 --> 00:51:25,039 amazing card for mining it's really good 1345 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,800 and you can put them in server cases and 1346 00:51:25,039 --> 00:51:29,599 they'll stay cool they have big thermal 1347 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:30,880 pads on the back as well as the front so 1348 00:51:29,599 --> 00:51:33,119 you're not going to have any thermal 1349 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:36,640 issues or anything okay going along 1350 00:51:33,119 --> 00:51:39,358 number 11 how do i power my mining rigs 1351 00:51:36,639 --> 00:51:41,440 this is definitely something where a lot 1352 00:51:39,358 --> 00:51:43,838 of miners new miners definitely will 1353 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:45,280 have to know and understand because 1354 00:51:43,838 --> 00:51:48,400 a lot of people are going to be running 1355 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:50,160 their mining rigs on regular i'd say 110 1356 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:53,599 volts 120 volt 1357 00:51:50,159 --> 00:51:55,519 15 amp plugs circuits like this okay and 1358 00:51:53,599 --> 00:51:56,960 you know you'll have multiple of these 1359 00:51:55,519 --> 00:51:59,440 in one room but they're going to share 1360 00:51:56,960 --> 00:52:01,039 the same breaker so have you ever had 1361 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,119 where you plugged in i don't know a 1362 00:52:01,039 --> 00:52:05,199 vacuum and an air conditioner and you 1363 00:52:03,119 --> 00:52:06,800 blow the breaker well same idea because 1364 00:52:05,199 --> 00:52:08,558 mining rigs will take a lot of power 1365 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:11,119 right and so you're only going to be 1366 00:52:08,559 --> 00:52:13,119 going up to about uh you want to only 1367 00:52:11,119 --> 00:52:16,318 want to go up to about 1500 watts like 1368 00:52:13,119 --> 00:52:18,800 the 80 rule on a circuit like this so in 1369 00:52:16,318 --> 00:52:21,279 my opinion which i have a great video on 1370 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:23,839 how i power my mining rigs not through 1371 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:27,119 you know regular power outlets but on 1372 00:52:23,838 --> 00:52:28,719 240 volts 30 amp okay you need to have 1373 00:52:27,119 --> 00:52:32,480 that because you'll have a lot more 1374 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:36,799 power capacity so you'll go to about 1375 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:39,280 57 5800 watts uh at the 80 roll you can 1376 00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:41,599 have the capacity of about 7 200 watts 1377 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:45,359 that's you know you do the math there 30 1378 00:52:41,599 --> 00:52:47,359 times 240 that will give you 7 200 watts 1379 00:52:45,358 --> 00:52:49,759 but of course you know depending on your 1380 00:52:47,358 --> 00:52:52,639 voltage that may not be 240 you can you 1381 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:54,400 might go down to 230 or 220 and you'll 1382 00:52:52,639 --> 00:52:58,000 just have to do the math there right 1383 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:59,838 times 0.8 to give you the 80 rule as you 1384 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,599 can see there definitely go watch this 1385 00:52:59,838 --> 00:53:03,759 video how do i power my mining rigs just 1386 00:53:01,599 --> 00:53:05,838 just just put that in youtube and you 1387 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:09,280 can see how i have my power distribution 1388 00:53:05,838 --> 00:53:10,880 unit plugged into my my power meter and 1389 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:13,119 it goes into there and then the power 1390 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:15,920 meter goes into the circuit panel 1391 00:53:13,119 --> 00:53:17,920 into the 30 amp 240 volt circuit breaker 1392 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,838 and then to power the mining rigs into 1393 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:23,200 the pdu you need a whole bunch of these 1394 00:53:19,838 --> 00:53:24,679 c13 to c14 cables which i bought a lot 1395 00:53:23,199 --> 00:53:26,399 of them from 1396 00:53:24,679 --> 00:53:28,318 infinitecables.com they have a lot of 1397 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:31,800 the c13c14s 1398 00:53:28,318 --> 00:53:33,440 in stock i think now they still do and 1399 00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:37,119 infinitecables.com yeah and they have 1400 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:38,800 the c13c14 you can see here 14 awg so 1401 00:53:37,119 --> 00:53:40,480 you want to make sure the gauge you want 1402 00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:43,359 to have that gauge because then you'll 1403 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:46,480 be pretty much safe from having the 1404 00:53:43,358 --> 00:53:49,679 cable become hot and potentially burn so 1405 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:52,159 i've seen power cables you know 18 gauge 1406 00:53:49,679 --> 00:53:53,919 20 gauge cables which you know can be 1407 00:53:52,159 --> 00:53:57,039 fine for smaller mining rigs but if you 1408 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:59,440 have higher you know higher power draw 1409 00:53:57,039 --> 00:54:01,440 mining rigs like 3080s 3090s you 1410 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,760 definitely want to invest in thicker 1411 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,838 gauged power cables because these kinds 1412 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:07,680 of cables will have the capacity and so 1413 00:54:05,838 --> 00:54:09,440 you don't have to worry about you know 1414 00:54:07,679 --> 00:54:12,000 burning your rigs burning your power 1415 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:13,838 bars your your pdu your mining rigs 1416 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,599 you'll all have enterprise grade you 1417 00:54:13,838 --> 00:54:17,279 know power cables which is which is 1418 00:54:15,599 --> 00:54:19,119 definitely a must when it comes to 1419 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:21,280 mining so there you go that's just a 1420 00:54:19,119 --> 00:54:23,039 little quick little explanation about 1421 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:25,200 how do i power my mining rigs definitely 1422 00:54:23,039 --> 00:54:27,920 go watch that video because that will be 1423 00:54:25,199 --> 00:54:29,439 definitely a pretty big consideration 1424 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,280 depending on where you're mining 1425 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:33,358 especially in a regular residential 1426 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:35,680 house and of course make sure you hire 1427 00:54:33,358 --> 00:54:38,239 an electrician a certified electrician 1428 00:54:35,679 --> 00:54:40,719 to wire all of those types of things in 1429 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:43,358 your house just just to be sure okay 1430 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:46,078 next question open air mining frames or 1431 00:54:43,358 --> 00:54:48,639 server cases for mining this is 1432 00:54:46,079 --> 00:54:50,480 definitely a common question 1433 00:54:48,639 --> 00:54:53,440 when people are asking when they're 1434 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:57,199 getting into gpu mining obviously the 1435 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:59,679 easiest answer for this is for me is 1436 00:54:57,199 --> 00:55:02,318 going to be server cases but there is 1437 00:54:59,679 --> 00:55:03,519 definitely a time and a place for 1438 00:55:02,318 --> 00:55:06,719 open-air 1439 00:55:03,519 --> 00:55:08,239 mining frames and to be honest i've been 1440 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,679 using open air mining frames for the 1441 00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:12,879 past pretty much 1442 00:55:09,679 --> 00:55:16,000 four three years now in mining and just 1443 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:18,480 to give some just some clarification of 1444 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:21,280 that you know i recently just stacked a 1445 00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,798 bunch of the 12 gpu mining frames 1446 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:25,040 together you guys may have saw that 1447 00:55:22,798 --> 00:55:28,079 video just yesterday i released you can 1448 00:55:25,039 --> 00:55:30,079 see here i have these 12gp mining frames 1449 00:55:28,079 --> 00:55:32,240 now for pretty much a year now and i 1450 00:55:30,079 --> 00:55:34,640 love them they are great for mining 1451 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:38,000 especially for open airframes i use them 1452 00:55:34,639 --> 00:55:39,920 as 6 gpu mining rigs not 12 because 1453 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,920 depending where you live and how you 1454 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,519 have your heat extraction in your 1455 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,760 wherever you're mining is able to 1456 00:55:43,519 --> 00:55:47,519 extract the heat out fast enough i 1457 00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:49,440 unfortunately don't have that and 1458 00:55:47,519 --> 00:55:51,440 especially when summertime comes around 1459 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:53,519 my basement does get very hot because i 1460 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:55,679 have a lot of mining rigs in the 1461 00:55:53,519 --> 00:55:57,519 basement so for me personally for some 1462 00:55:55,679 --> 00:55:58,960 of you that don't know i have been 1463 00:55:57,519 --> 00:56:01,280 moving towards 1464 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:04,159 octominer server cases you guys know and 1465 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:06,240 i'm slowly moving towards them for most 1466 00:56:04,159 --> 00:56:08,558 of my rigs i did say in yesterday's 1467 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:11,279 video that i am gonna keep this mining 1468 00:56:08,559 --> 00:56:13,119 frame uh this the stacking mining frames 1469 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:15,519 here like this i actually really love it 1470 00:56:13,119 --> 00:56:17,200 like this but there is one caveat though 1471 00:56:15,519 --> 00:56:20,079 there is an issue i do have an issue 1472 00:56:17,199 --> 00:56:22,798 with one of the middle rigs the 30 70 ti 1473 00:56:20,079 --> 00:56:25,359 rig at the middle here uh right there 1474 00:56:22,798 --> 00:56:28,079 it's it's getting hot because it has 1475 00:56:25,358 --> 00:56:31,920 another rig on top of it so the hot air 1476 00:56:28,079 --> 00:56:34,079 is kind of just staying there uh in the 1477 00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:37,119 middle like right here 1478 00:56:34,079 --> 00:56:39,760 so there is some issue with airflow i 1479 00:56:37,119 --> 00:56:42,160 have put a another fan which is like 1480 00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:45,280 kind of behind me pointed at this rig 1481 00:56:42,159 --> 00:56:48,318 here so it is able to stay cool now but 1482 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:50,240 i needed a separate you know little 1483 00:56:48,318 --> 00:56:51,599 one of those uh forgot what the fan name 1484 00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:53,519 is called but it's one of those like 1485 00:56:51,599 --> 00:56:56,480 tunnel fans and it's pushing a lot of 1486 00:56:53,519 --> 00:56:58,318 air towards this 30 70 ti rig in the 1487 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,798 middle all right all my other rigs are 1488 00:56:58,318 --> 00:57:02,480 completely fine but again everyone's 1489 00:57:00,798 --> 00:57:04,480 situation is different depending on how 1490 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:06,159 many mining rigs you have on your area 1491 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,240 if you have just one or two you know 1492 00:57:06,159 --> 00:57:10,558 stocking them like this is totally fine 1493 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:13,199 if you had six or eight or 20 of them in 1494 00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:15,119 one room you will then run into an issue 1495 00:57:13,199 --> 00:57:17,118 with heat right that's pretty much the 1496 00:57:15,119 --> 00:57:19,039 number one thing uh that was a question 1497 00:57:17,119 --> 00:57:20,318 i talked about earlier right so that's 1498 00:57:19,039 --> 00:57:22,960 definitely something to be mindful of 1499 00:57:20,318 --> 00:57:26,000 but in terms of either going with server 1500 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:28,559 cases or open air rigs honestly it it 1501 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:31,280 just depends what you want to achieve 1502 00:57:28,559 --> 00:57:33,519 for me myself i really loved the octa 1503 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:35,680 miner cases just the way they looked and 1504 00:57:33,519 --> 00:57:38,639 also how they behaved and all the 1505 00:57:35,679 --> 00:57:40,719 features and you know i use hive os and 1506 00:57:38,639 --> 00:57:42,639 it's just so easy the integration with 1507 00:57:40,719 --> 00:57:45,519 the fans and all that stuff 1508 00:57:42,639 --> 00:57:47,279 in hive os is awesome i love it and so 1509 00:57:45,519 --> 00:57:49,599 yeah i really love these server cases 1510 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:52,079 especially with the redundant like hot 1511 00:57:49,599 --> 00:57:55,599 swappable power supplies the thicker 1512 00:57:52,079 --> 00:57:58,079 gauge pcie cables and it just it's just 1513 00:57:55,599 --> 00:58:00,640 awesome i love it i love it it's not to 1514 00:57:58,079 --> 00:58:03,280 say i don't like 12 gpu mining frames i 1515 00:58:00,639 --> 00:58:05,279 think the 12 gpu mining frames or any 1516 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:07,839 open air mining frame is completely fine 1517 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:10,319 for mining if you have one or two or a 1518 00:58:07,838 --> 00:58:12,480 couple it's completely fine but once you 1519 00:58:10,318 --> 00:58:15,199 start scaling you then have to think 1520 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:17,838 about the heat right and so that's why i 1521 00:58:15,199 --> 00:58:18,558 actually i moved over to 1522 00:58:17,838 --> 00:58:20,558 the 1523 00:58:18,559 --> 00:58:22,160 octa miner server cases right and 1524 00:58:20,559 --> 00:58:24,480 actually you can see in my basement here 1525 00:58:22,159 --> 00:58:26,399 i have about five of them in vertical 1526 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:28,559 mode here which is awesome and so with 1527 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:31,519 the server cases you are enclosing the 1528 00:58:28,559 --> 00:58:33,280 gpus in a tighter space and so the 1529 00:58:31,519 --> 00:58:36,159 airflow is being directed through the 1530 00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:39,440 gpus a lot more directed through the 1531 00:58:36,159 --> 00:58:42,159 gpus if that makes sense so smaller form 1532 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:44,880 factor and more density inside the 1533 00:58:42,159 --> 00:58:46,798 server case with high powered you know 1534 00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:49,039 like delta fans and airflow going 1535 00:58:46,798 --> 00:58:51,358 through the gpus thus you will get 1536 00:58:49,039 --> 00:58:53,920 cooler temperatures throughout all the 1537 00:58:51,358 --> 00:58:56,719 gpus but when you are open frame mining 1538 00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:58,159 like i am over here and the issue i had 1539 00:58:56,719 --> 00:59:00,639 is that you know since they're all open 1540 00:58:58,159 --> 00:59:02,960 like this the hot air is just being 1541 00:59:00,639 --> 00:59:04,879 spread out throughout this whole general 1542 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,639 area right so if i don't have any 1543 00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:09,039 airflow if i don't have my exhaust fan 1544 00:59:06,639 --> 00:59:12,078 open here the hot air is just gonna sit 1545 00:59:09,039 --> 00:59:14,960 here and the gpus ambiently will get 1546 00:59:12,079 --> 00:59:16,720 hotter and hotter especially my 30 70 ti 1547 00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,639 rigs at the bottom so just got to be 1548 00:59:16,719 --> 00:59:20,318 mindful of those types of things if 1549 00:59:18,639 --> 00:59:21,598 you're going to go with open air mining 1550 00:59:20,318 --> 00:59:22,719 frames or 1551 00:59:21,599 --> 00:59:24,400 server case 1552 00:59:22,719 --> 00:59:26,639 server cases for 1553 00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:29,200 gpu mining a lot of considerations but 1554 00:59:26,639 --> 00:59:30,798 ultimately totally up to you everyone's 1555 00:59:29,199 --> 00:59:33,439 wherever you're mining everyone has a 1556 00:59:30,798 --> 00:59:35,599 different room right depending on how 1557 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,960 your power is your airflow if you have 1558 00:59:35,599 --> 00:59:38,798 any windows or you don't have any 1559 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,639 windows right then you'll have to make 1560 00:59:38,798 --> 00:59:42,318 shifts i don't know cut out a wall or 1561 00:59:40,639 --> 00:59:44,078 something to put an exhaust fan in or 1562 00:59:42,318 --> 00:59:46,159 something like that everyone's situation 1563 00:59:44,079 --> 00:59:48,400 is different okay so next question guys 1564 00:59:46,159 --> 00:59:50,960 let's let's keep it going now crypto 1565 00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:52,240 mining is a journey especially as a 1566 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:55,039 residential 1567 00:59:52,239 --> 00:59:56,479 miner so this is something i'm just 1568 00:59:55,039 --> 00:59:58,318 gonna run through some bullet points i 1569 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,280 wrote down i'm sure i'm missing a lot 1570 00:59:58,318 --> 01:00:01,920 here but 1571 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:04,400 i myself has been doing this whole 1572 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:06,000 crypto mining youtube for a lot of i've 1573 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,798 been doing it for the past three years 1574 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:11,838 now and it's been so much fun i started 1575 01:00:08,798 --> 01:00:13,759 off doing it as a passion i love you 1576 01:00:11,838 --> 01:00:15,358 know computer parts and so getting into 1577 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:18,160 crypto mining for me was just like a 1578 01:00:15,358 --> 01:00:20,318 win-win situation plus i loved creating 1579 01:00:18,159 --> 01:00:23,199 content and i i want to do something on 1580 01:00:20,318 --> 01:00:25,358 youtube and so here i am i've basically 1581 01:00:23,199 --> 01:00:27,679 been documenting my whole crypto mining 1582 01:00:25,358 --> 01:00:30,480 journey on youtube and i've been showing 1583 01:00:27,679 --> 01:00:32,639 you guys my vlogs and how to's and you 1584 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:34,079 know i have a lot of how to build a lot 1585 01:00:32,639 --> 01:00:35,838 of mining rigs right how to build a 1586 01:00:34,079 --> 01:00:38,079 mining rig you know that type of thing 1587 01:00:35,838 --> 01:00:40,159 has definitely enabled a lot of people 1588 01:00:38,079 --> 01:00:42,559 to learn because i have like over half a 1589 01:00:40,159 --> 01:00:44,798 million if not a million views on those 1590 01:00:42,559 --> 01:00:46,880 videos and a lot of people commented 1591 01:00:44,798 --> 01:00:49,519 like they love those types of videos 1592 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:52,000 because they can see in a pov style 1593 01:00:49,519 --> 01:00:54,559 manner how to build a mining rig and so 1594 01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:56,480 that's i really enjoy those types and 1595 01:00:54,559 --> 01:00:59,280 i've enjoyed that a lot of you have 1596 01:00:56,480 --> 01:01:02,240 enjoyed those videos as well so 1597 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,920 especially as a residential miner there 1598 01:01:02,239 --> 01:01:06,078 is some things that you're gonna run 1599 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:08,639 into so first thing first point you will 1600 01:01:06,079 --> 01:01:11,039 run into issues whether it's you know 1601 01:01:08,639 --> 01:01:13,039 your gpu doesn't turn on your mining rig 1602 01:01:11,039 --> 01:01:15,039 doesn't turn on after you built it or 1603 01:01:13,039 --> 01:01:16,960 just some type of issue and there's 1604 01:01:15,039 --> 01:01:18,318 gonna be a lot of troubleshooting that 1605 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:20,720 you will have to do whether it's a 1606 01:01:18,318 --> 01:01:23,519 broken riser a cable is not plugged in 1607 01:01:20,719 --> 01:01:25,439 all the way a pcie cable not plugged in 1608 01:01:23,519 --> 01:01:27,838 all the way that's very common not very 1609 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:30,720 not very many people triple check their 1610 01:01:27,838 --> 01:01:32,639 cables i highly recommend like triple 1611 01:01:30,719 --> 01:01:34,959 checking your cables because that that 1612 01:01:32,639 --> 01:01:36,879 also causes a lot of issues uh with your 1613 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:39,199 mining rigs next point here you will 1614 01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:42,160 have a lot of sleepless nights and so if 1615 01:01:39,199 --> 01:01:44,719 you are into crypto mining a lot and 1616 01:01:42,159 --> 01:01:46,480 you're always tinkering or you know 1617 01:01:44,719 --> 01:01:48,639 you're always just worried about 1618 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,880 something and you're always upgrading or 1619 01:01:48,639 --> 01:01:52,960 doing something with your rig this this 1620 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:56,000 will happen right especially since you 1621 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:58,079 know we are doing this for a financial 1622 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,760 reason right a lot of people are in it 1623 01:01:58,079 --> 01:02:01,519 to make money right right let's not kid 1624 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:03,440 ourselves you know crypto mining it 1625 01:02:01,519 --> 01:02:04,960 either can be a form of passive income 1626 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:07,440 right if you're gonna sell every day 1627 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:09,358 sell every month or another strategy is 1628 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:11,200 huddling for the long term for the next 1629 01:02:09,358 --> 01:02:12,960 market cycles you know 1630 01:02:11,199 --> 01:02:14,399 when you see the price appreciation of 1631 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:16,400 when you're huddling you know that type 1632 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:18,318 of stuff that can also cause a lot of 1633 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:20,720 stress as well right because you're 1634 01:02:18,318 --> 01:02:22,798 putting a lot more risk and you're just 1635 01:02:20,719 --> 01:02:26,639 probably thinking about it all the time 1636 01:02:22,798 --> 01:02:28,960 emotionally and it probably also affects 1637 01:02:26,639 --> 01:02:31,038 you physically in some way so a lot of 1638 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:33,119 sleepless nights i've had that let me 1639 01:02:31,039 --> 01:02:34,880 know if any of you have had this issue 1640 01:02:33,119 --> 01:02:37,119 next one you will probably spend a lot 1641 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:39,200 of money and i don't know for me yes 1642 01:02:37,119 --> 01:02:41,200 i've spent a lot of money on crypto 1643 01:02:39,199 --> 01:02:42,558 mining hardware graphics cards extra 1644 01:02:41,199 --> 01:02:44,879 parts all that stuff when you're gonna 1645 01:02:42,559 --> 01:02:46,880 get into crypto mining you probably will 1646 01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:49,200 as well because you're gonna get pretty 1647 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:51,200 addicted to crypto mining and looking at 1648 01:02:49,199 --> 01:02:53,519 hardware prices and buying gpus and all 1649 01:02:51,199 --> 01:02:55,519 that stuff and to go along with that 1650 01:02:53,519 --> 01:02:57,599 you'll probably get your friends into 1651 01:02:55,519 --> 01:03:00,400 crypto mining that is definitely one 1652 01:02:57,599 --> 01:03:02,480 that i have seen personally myself as 1653 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:04,240 well as other people out there you'll 1654 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:05,519 probably get your family members into it 1655 01:03:04,239 --> 01:03:07,118 and everyone into it everyone's gonna 1656 01:03:05,519 --> 01:03:09,280 love it right because you're able to 1657 01:03:07,119 --> 01:03:11,440 generate money next one your wife 1658 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:13,680 husband or kids will probably complain 1659 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,400 about the noise or heat this 1660 01:03:13,679 --> 01:03:16,239 is 1661 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:18,720 one that i've definitely gone through 1662 01:03:16,239 --> 01:03:20,798 myself and i know a lot of my existing 1663 01:03:18,719 --> 01:03:22,399 viewers have as well you'll probably 1664 01:03:20,798 --> 01:03:24,480 have an issue depending on where you're 1665 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:27,119 mining in like a living room or maybe a 1666 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:28,880 basement or you will have an issue of 1667 01:03:27,119 --> 01:03:31,440 noise and heat for sure the power supply 1668 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:34,079 supplies you know like hp server psus 1669 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:35,519 can be very loud right and if you go 1670 01:03:34,079 --> 01:03:37,280 with server cases for instance with 1671 01:03:35,519 --> 01:03:39,519 those high delta fans those are going to 1672 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:41,039 be loud as well right and not to mention 1673 01:03:39,519 --> 01:03:42,639 the heat all right next one you will 1674 01:03:41,039 --> 01:03:44,799 have a lot of extra mining parts laying 1675 01:03:42,639 --> 01:03:46,480 around i mean yeah that's a given as uh 1676 01:03:44,798 --> 01:03:47,679 if you're gonna start scaling and 1677 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:50,719 building a lot of stuff you'll probably 1678 01:03:47,679 --> 01:03:52,078 have a lot of extra risers as as do i uh 1679 01:03:50,719 --> 01:03:53,439 next one you will have a lot of late 1680 01:03:52,079 --> 01:03:55,599 nights troubleshooting or changing up 1681 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:58,000 your mining configs and yeah i've 1682 01:03:55,599 --> 01:04:00,559 definitely gone through this myself as 1683 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,199 you are going to probably you know maybe 1684 01:04:00,559 --> 01:04:03,200 you're going to look at the 1685 01:04:01,199 --> 01:04:05,358 profitability of a coin and you want to 1686 01:04:03,199 --> 01:04:07,759 mine i don't know another coin not just 1687 01:04:05,358 --> 01:04:09,519 ethereum and so you may just go ahead 1688 01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:11,520 and start changing stuff and all of a 1689 01:04:09,519 --> 01:04:14,159 sudden it's like oh oops i need to 1690 01:04:11,519 --> 01:04:15,920 change the overclocks as well and i need 1691 01:04:14,159 --> 01:04:18,239 to figure out the most efficient numbers 1692 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:20,079 and i need to get the perfect overclock 1693 01:04:18,239 --> 01:04:22,159 number in and you know or maybe i'm 1694 01:04:20,079 --> 01:04:23,599 using more power and or the rig turned 1695 01:04:22,159 --> 01:04:25,759 off or you know 1696 01:04:23,599 --> 01:04:27,838 yeah this this this is going to happen a 1697 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:29,359 lot if you get into crypto mining and 1698 01:04:27,838 --> 01:04:30,558 you have a lot of them all right next 1699 01:04:29,358 --> 01:04:32,639 one you will probably look at your hash 1700 01:04:30,559 --> 01:04:35,680 rates and rewards generated every day 1701 01:04:32,639 --> 01:04:37,519 and yes i do this myself you know just a 1702 01:04:35,679 --> 01:04:39,358 couple minutes just looking at every 1703 01:04:37,519 --> 01:04:40,880 single thing i go to my hive os look at 1704 01:04:39,358 --> 01:04:43,199 my account make sure all my rigs are up 1705 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:44,880 and that's it that's it right it's it's 1706 01:04:43,199 --> 01:04:46,719 a given because this is something you've 1707 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,798 you've pretty much poured your your 1708 01:04:46,719 --> 01:04:50,480 heart and soul and a lot of money into 1709 01:04:48,798 --> 01:04:52,960 and so you're definitely going to be 1710 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:54,318 looking at this stuff all the time next 1711 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,440 one you will always be learning and 1712 01:04:54,318 --> 01:04:58,000 keeping up to date with everything 1713 01:04:55,440 --> 01:05:00,159 within the crypto mining ecosystem and 1714 01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,440 yes i mean as you are getting into 1715 01:05:00,159 --> 01:05:03,838 mining you're probably going to be 1716 01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:06,000 interested in it a lot more and more and 1717 01:05:03,838 --> 01:05:09,358 so with that right comes with a lot of 1718 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:11,599 learning and uh googling i don't know 1719 01:05:09,358 --> 01:05:13,519 watching my videos watching any other 1720 01:05:11,599 --> 01:05:15,440 youtube videos out there 1721 01:05:13,519 --> 01:05:16,880 it's a it's a thing for sure you will 1722 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:20,240 always see a new update to a mining 1723 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:22,079 software every week and yes so talking 1724 01:05:20,239 --> 01:05:24,000 about like lol minor t-rex minor 1725 01:05:22,079 --> 01:05:26,318 recently updating dual mining a lot of 1726 01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:28,559 those mining software will update with 1727 01:05:26,318 --> 01:05:30,480 some sort of optimization more so 1728 01:05:28,559 --> 01:05:32,400 especially the last the past year it's 1729 01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:35,599 been it's been a lot they've enabled you 1730 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:38,240 know mining on lhr cards unlocking and 1731 01:05:35,599 --> 01:05:40,400 now dual mining on the lhr cards pretty 1732 01:05:38,239 --> 01:05:43,279 much unlocking it one hundred percent 1733 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:45,119 and as well with lol miner dual mining 1734 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,480 ethon you guys know the thing all right 1735 01:05:45,119 --> 01:05:47,838 next one is you will have new 1736 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,358 optimization to your mining rig to 1737 01:05:47,838 --> 01:05:51,679 achieve potentially better hash rates 1738 01:05:49,358 --> 01:05:53,440 and efficiency uh so this probably goes 1739 01:05:51,679 --> 01:05:55,759 along with the last one here as there is 1740 01:05:53,440 --> 01:05:57,920 going to be new updates right and maybe 1741 01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:59,520 uh you there's a new overclock setting 1742 01:05:57,920 --> 01:06:02,559 or something and a great one is going to 1743 01:05:59,519 --> 01:06:05,280 be with you know the absolute core clock 1744 01:06:02,559 --> 01:06:06,720 that haveos enabled i think last year 1745 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:08,160 that was a great one because a lot of 1746 01:06:06,719 --> 01:06:09,358 people were able to get a lot more 1747 01:06:08,159 --> 01:06:11,920 efficiency 1748 01:06:09,358 --> 01:06:14,159 in their gpu mining rigs and save a lot 1749 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:16,079 more power so you know things like that 1750 01:06:14,159 --> 01:06:18,399 you know may come out a lot more more 1751 01:06:16,079 --> 01:06:19,839 prevalent in the future who knows next 1752 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,920 one you will always try to find the best 1753 01:06:19,838 --> 01:06:24,078 deal on all crypto mining parts and i 1754 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:26,639 mean i think we're always trying to find 1755 01:06:24,079 --> 01:06:28,640 deals on gpus and whatnot but it's 1756 01:06:26,639 --> 01:06:30,719 obviously as a recording it's it's still 1757 01:06:28,639 --> 01:06:32,078 up there in terms of prices next one you 1758 01:06:30,719 --> 01:06:33,759 will always have to watch crypto mining 1759 01:06:32,079 --> 01:06:35,280 youtube videos and if you're watching 1760 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:37,760 this video you're probably going to 1761 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:39,760 watch a lot of youtube videos especially 1762 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:42,000 within mining and there's going to be a 1763 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:44,480 lot of different opinions a lot of 1764 01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:45,440 different just perspectives especially 1765 01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,838 with me 1766 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:50,079 i always give you know my perspective in 1767 01:06:47,838 --> 01:06:51,519 mining as i a little i have a little a 1768 01:06:50,079 --> 01:06:53,760 bit of experience for the past couple 1769 01:06:51,519 --> 01:06:55,679 years i'm not an og by any means okay 1770 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:57,119 i'm not an og there are other youtube 1771 01:06:55,679 --> 01:07:00,480 channels out there that are a lot more

guys my experience and my 1775 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:10,000 perspective of how i see things recently 1776 01:07:08,239 --> 01:07:13,598 okay and the last part here you will 1777 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:14,480 have a lot of fun all right this is 1778 01:07:13,599 --> 01:07:16,240 definitely 1779 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:18,000 if you are getting into crypto mining i 1780 01:07:16,239 --> 01:07:19,838 mean as a residential miner you're gonna 1781 01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:22,000 have a lot of fun building the rig 1782 01:07:19,838 --> 01:07:23,759 keeping up to date mining seeing those 1783 01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:25,838 rewards going into your mining rig 1784 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,359 looking at your beautiful beautiful 1785 01:07:25,838 --> 01:07:30,400 mining rig that you built with your 1786 01:07:27,358 --> 01:07:33,759 hands and yeah it's 1787 01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:36,639 i can go on and on about that i i truly 1788 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:38,640 truly love crypto mining and what goes 1789 01:07:36,639 --> 01:07:40,558 around with the ecosystem as well with 1790 01:07:38,639 --> 01:07:42,879 the community as you all know i have 1791 01:07:40,559 --> 01:07:45,119 been making videos every single day on 1792 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:47,440 my youtube channel you know come hell or 1793 01:07:45,119 --> 01:07:48,960 high water i i make videos every day i'm 1794 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:51,039 like kind of sick right now as of 1795 01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:54,000 recording but you know overall this has 1796 01:07:51,039 --> 01:07:57,359 been a lot of fun and passion for me 1797 01:07:54,000 --> 01:08:00,960 mining has given me a new i guess 1798 01:07:57,358 --> 01:08:02,960 outlook in terms of wealth generation 1799 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:05,358 you know as i want to create that 1800 01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:06,880 generational wealth uh for the future 1801 01:08:05,358 --> 01:08:08,639 right this kind of goes along with my 1802 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:12,000 personal conviction uh with 1803 01:08:08,639 --> 01:08:14,159 cryptocurrency and how it pertains to my 1804 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:16,479 goals uh in the future and probably for 1805 01:08:14,159 --> 01:08:18,238 a lot of you as well all right now let's 1806 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:20,959 end off with the last question here do i 1807 01:08:18,238 --> 01:08:24,238 believe crypto mining is worth it in 1808 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:27,439 2022. just in the back of my head okay 1809 01:08:24,238 --> 01:08:29,678 what is the issue with that is gpu 1810 01:08:27,439 --> 01:08:31,599 mining still worth it in 2022 is 1811 01:08:29,679 --> 01:08:34,960 question number three 1812 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:38,480 okay this this one for me is definitely 1813 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:40,079 a big i guess hurdle when it comes to 1814 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,599 the whole crypto mining community as a 1815 01:08:40,079 --> 01:08:43,759 whole and i don't think i need to go 1816 01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:45,679 into it in depth just talking about why 1817 01:08:43,759 --> 01:08:46,960 i already talked about number three a 1818 01:08:45,679 --> 01:08:49,039 question earlier in this video this 1819 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:51,679 video is extremely long i can't believe 1820 01:08:49,039 --> 01:08:53,359 i recorded this long but with that do i 1821 01:08:51,679 --> 01:08:57,359 believe crypto mining is still worth it 1822 01:08:53,359 --> 01:09:00,079 in 2022 and yes because my conviction 1823 01:08:57,359 --> 01:09:02,319 and and belief just in crypto mining in 1824 01:09:00,079 --> 01:09:04,479 the future as i'm always going to keep 1825 01:09:02,319 --> 01:09:06,798 mining i am always going to pay for my 1826 01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:08,959 electrical bill out of my pocket i'm 1827 01:09:06,798 --> 01:09:11,198 always going to keep on accumulating 1828 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:13,520 because i believe that you know in the 1829 01:09:11,198 --> 01:09:15,838 future especially with cryptocurrency is 1830 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:17,440 just honestly it's still getting started 1831 01:09:15,838 --> 01:09:19,679 there's going to be a lot more 1832 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:21,759 investment in it and that's what i 1833 01:09:19,679 --> 01:09:25,359 personally believe and so i think i will 1834 01:09:21,759 --> 01:09:27,279 create a lot of wealth that way just by 1835 01:09:25,359 --> 01:09:29,440 you know huddling it it's maybe kind of 1836 01:09:27,279 --> 01:09:30,960 similar to buying real estate or 1837 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,238 something like that and you know real 1838 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,399 estate has definitely gone up in the 1839 01:09:32,238 --> 01:09:36,879 past couple years as depending on where 1840 01:09:34,399 --> 01:09:38,719 you live uh it's it's been pretty it's 1841 01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:41,440 been pretty intense right but along with 1842 01:09:38,719 --> 01:09:43,759 crypto that cryptocurrency or bitcoin in 1843 01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:46,399 general is gonna be a new financial 1844 01:09:43,759 --> 01:09:49,198 paradigm in the world in the next five 1845 01:09:46,399 --> 01:09:50,719 ten twenty years in my opinion so i 1846 01:09:49,198 --> 01:09:53,119 believe it's gonna be worth it in the 1847 01:09:50,719 --> 01:09:55,840 long run as long as you don't think of 1848 01:09:53,119 --> 01:09:58,000 crypto mining as a get rich quick scheme 1849 01:09:55,840 --> 01:10:00,000 okay if you are getting into crypto 1850 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:02,960 mining and you are hoping to make 1851 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:04,560 millions of dollars in like in one year 1852 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:07,198 that's not gonna happen okay as 1853 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:09,920 residential miners we are doing this as 1854 01:10:07,198 --> 01:10:12,000 a long-term play it's definitely lower 1855 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:14,560 risk to get into crypto mining than 1856 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:17,119 rather than buying crypto because you 1857 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:19,679 have value in the hardware that you have 1858 01:10:17,119 --> 01:10:22,319 purchased for mining plus you know as 1859 01:10:19,679 --> 01:10:24,319 you're mining you're gaining the rewards 1860 01:10:22,319 --> 01:10:26,960 and so if you're huddling that crypto 1861 01:10:24,319 --> 01:10:28,880 plus also huddling your hardware 1862 01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:30,319 up until you know maybe the next bull 1863 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:33,199 run or something and then when crypto 1864 01:10:30,319 --> 01:10:35,679 mining comes back into profitability 1865 01:10:33,198 --> 01:10:38,000 then things become even better for you 1866 01:10:35,679 --> 01:10:39,520 as you've huddled your hardware and your 1867 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:41,840 crypto and you're just laughing because 1868 01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:44,239 your portfolio has gone up so much and 1869 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:46,000 maybe your rtx 3070 is worth two 1870 01:10:44,238 --> 01:10:47,519 thousand dollars again i'm not saying 1871 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:49,760 that's going to happen again we don't 1872 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:53,360 know but we've seen that happen now the 1873 01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:55,280 past two bull runs in 2017 uh 2018 and 1874 01:10:53,359 --> 01:10:58,079 then in the recent ballroom we had in 1875 01:10:55,279 --> 01:11:00,238 2021 and i'm that's not to say i don't 1876 01:10:58,079 --> 01:11:02,719 know if we're still in a bull run right 1877 01:11:00,238 --> 01:11:04,559 now i'm not quite sure but things are 1878 01:11:02,719 --> 01:11:06,800 still generally profitable 1879 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:09,120 for mining as of recording february 10th 1880 01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:12,239 okay so anyways guys with all of that 1881 01:11:09,119 --> 01:11:14,238 said let me know what you think if you 1882 01:11:12,238 --> 01:11:16,238 think getting into crypto mining will be 1883 01:11:14,238 --> 01:11:17,919 worth it i wholeheartedly believe crypto 1884 01:11:16,238 --> 01:11:19,359 mining isn't going anywhere there's 1885 01:11:17,920 --> 01:11:21,279 probably going to be a lot of new 1886 01:11:19,359 --> 01:11:23,839 projects coming out with proof of work 1887 01:11:21,279 --> 01:11:26,880 and hopefully you know take over what 1888 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:28,719 ethereum is moving away from all right
