Nut up and be your own bank, nerds. I've had 0 problems just using the Electrum wallet to make payments to coincards.ca

You do bring up a good point. Banks have money, I lack sufficient money at least to my liking. What if I just ... started my own bank? I'd have lots of money!

I'd have lots of money! there's a wacky tale in the YOSPOS thread of someone who wanted FREE CRYPTO MONEY so started an ICO, with a drunk as a business partner. also he was selling a thing he had to code, and could not code. it did not go well.

How much are 1080 ti's making these days?

A little above 2 dollars. Edit: Right at the moment it's actually nearly 3 dollars https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator

Yeah the 1080 Ti was down near $2/day for a while but in the past few days it's been going up a bit, over $3 right now.

Bitcoin value going up but they're paying fewer bitcoins per hash.

Im sure its more complicated than this but its just supply and demand (processing power), its almost irrelevant what bitcoins are actually worth - within reason. Technically if I were receiving the same amount of bitcoins I was being paid out just two months ago my 1080ti would be getting over $10 a day. But back in June towards the end of the craze you could almost get that, despite the value of bitcoin being 30% or 40% of what it is now. But as GPU-time flooded the market so to speak the value of your hashes drops accordingly to whatever level people find it acceptable to continue doing it. While on one hand its disappointing that the mining returns absolutely do not correlate to the value of the bitcoins themselves, it makes little sense for it to be any other way. Not looking forward to Volta totally wrecking this.

You are mining alt coins which have their own valuation to the us dollar. Bitcoin itself has its own valuations to the us dollar. Both valuations are driven by demand and speculation. You might or probably exchange your alt coin to btc and then to USD (to your local currency) or some variation of that. Lots of forex going on

True and I know im seriously oversimplifying at any rate, but at the same time I know no matter what its going to balance out to whatever is worth your time to do. Which for a 1080ti's level of GPU power, seems to be $2-$4. The value of etherium and bitcoin (admittidly I only pay attention to those two) fluctuated wildly over the past few months but there's one thing I can be sure about- im mining about $3 a day on that card lol.

so how likely is the 1070ti going to go out of stock and be price gouged?

Unlikely, it should be memory constrained

My bet is they'll probably have enough stock but there will definitely be some price gouging at least for a few weeks.

I'm up to nearly $6.50 CDN /day right now on a 1080 and a 970. Was hovering around the $3 mark a couple of days ago. This is good for newegg cards and burritos .

Cryptonight has been oddly profitable the last 12 hours or so, haven't seen anything like it in awhile. Its also rather power efficient when gpu mining. This 7k+ buttsurge is crazy and I regret not hoarding all my nicebutt payouts instead of immediately selling.

Don't regret profit taking, it could have also crashed and you could've been left with nothing. You can hoard them for the future going forward

So with Nicehash do you get to select what it mines, or does it just "do poo poo".

You pick algorithms to mine, it then selects the most profitable job after running its existing job.

Sitting at $450 in newegg.ca giftcards now from coincards.ca Probably been running nicehash on and off for 3-4 months now. Was running XMR for a couple of weeks on nanopool as well during this time (not nearly as profitable). Running a 1080 and 970 and pulling $8/day because BUTTCOINS TO THE MOOOOON. Perfect timing too because I need to buy some computer parts and this'll easily cover about 1/2 of what I want to get.

Wtf 8 per day? I get like 6 with 2 1080tis (underclocked though, to avoid too much fan wear and noise)

I've been touching $4 a few times with a 1080ti the past few days (with weird gimped Nicehash memory speed still). I wish I held onto buttcoins obviously, but I know that wasn't the right choice either, so no regrets. 1080 has been pretty consistently ~$2.50.

my 7970 has been making 2.20 all day. At this point its paid for itself and the 8 year old computer its installed in four times over. Pretty great and I dont need to run the heater in my office this winter because its a loving hot GPU

Yeah I'm glad that this buttcoin bubble lasted long enough for the GPU heat to switch from being a nuisance to being useful, my apartment has never been this comfortable in the fall.
