I've been researching a lot into mining recently, I'm just annoyed with myself that I am about 9 months too late to get the ball rolling with building a mining rig and as already mentioned, it's simply not profitable anymore. (And the fact that I no longer have the spare funds to spend on mining components lol).

True. If I didn't already have the gear to do it I absolutely would not bother.

I hope you're still mining for BlackCoinPool

BlackCoin value just hit a new high.

Yep, a solitary 7950 mind :lol:

Well after having to send back 1 of my R9 280X due to a faulty fan and receiving a refund. I've just bought 3 x 7950 on Ebay.

So soon to have 1 x 280x, 3x 7950 and 1 x 6970 :P

If you've given up mining Black, I hope you've given up mining everything because the BlackCoin pool is currently the most profitable multipool there is.

Just hold your black, don't give it to anyone! ;) The number of miners in the pool has grown, this has caused more buy pressure on the markets. Coin value will go up, it is going up. The pool also now has a mining hardware giveaway to attract more miners.

Keep your wallet open when you use your PC, get 1% interest per year.

This coin is going places compared to others. It's entered the top 20 by market cap and for the last 4 weeks has been in the top 5 for trading volumes.

I will of course hold it for you and when it's worth a load you can have it back. I've created a receive address just for you - B5Q8N3py4S5XRSAfk3RG8Ch53MYgxb58hn

You'd be better off keeping.

If you really want to sell, I'll have them.

Walrusbonzo

The pool hash rate has at the very least, doubled today, that means BlackCoin buy pressure will also double. BlackCoin will go up.

And then probably back down after a few whales dump their load,  :thumbdown: But then the pool will carry on buying, whatever the cost.  :thumbup:

The only way is up.

I#ll try mining for another 24 hours and see what the returns are like

when it was 20,000 bc to 1 bitcoin its not worth doing

Walrusbonzo

Going by the fact we've almost hit 10,000 satoshis, it'll be 10,000 BC for 1 BC.

Those you hold are now worth double what they were when you mined them.

that still puts me at 140days/bitcoin :(
(actually, it's worse that that, because as the price goes up, I'll be receiving less for my mining work?)

maybe if it doubles in price again....

Walrusbonzo

It'll happen, just a matter of time.
