RE: Mining Bitcoin at Home: Week 6 Update
Thank you for taking time to read this post and especially for leaving this comment! I truly appreciate having a conversation with people on Steemit!
As to your questions: yes, I am mining some altcoins, specifically Monero and ZCash, as I mentioned in this earlier post. The changes I have made since I wrote it: my work laptop is now mining on NiceHash, with automatic conversion to Bitcoin, and I changed my payouts from mining Monero on Genesis Mining to be automatically converted into ZCash.
I am still considering building my own GPU-based mining rig to mine altcoins at home. But I decided to wait until my Bitcoin miner has paid for itself first, and then see where Monero and ZCash are at that point, price-wise.
I hope your mining project is running smoothly too and will ultimately prove profitable for you! Good luck!
