Approximately 10 days ago I was approached by a friend who told me to throw all of my money into Ethereum.

I told him I would read up on it, with the thought in my head that most people just use Cryptocurrency to purchase bad things on the internet. Boy was I wrong...

I never imagined there being an even better way to spend MORE time glued to my monitor...

I dug deep. And 5 days ago I purchased a miniscule amount of various coins, just so see if anything would move.

They did. All of them did.

It became real when I saw my ETH and STEEM wallets' "USD" amount increase. That was all I needed to know what to do next.

3 days ago I learned mining coins and altcoins was possible. I felt like I had missed the biggest opportunity to participate in future. Until I realized, this is the beginning of the end of the beginning. If I was going to have any chance to join in on this rise it would be now.

Yesterday I purchased equipment to build a ETH based mining rig with 6x MSI GTX 1060's

When I first tried assembling carts for my build, I was shocked to see almost everything I needed being sold out in almost every store I searched.

I'm still waiting for GPU riser cables and unfortunately I cannot find them anywhere besides overseas and a few eBay vendors that CLAIM to be USA based shipping. Hopefully the 10 I ordered from Chino, California make it to me soon as I do not want to waste anymore time!

I'm currently using 2 of the 1060's for an steady 65-70 Calculated Hashrate through Nanopool. It is working and it can be working even better! I am so excited to see where the rest of my story goes!
