Rise of Bitcoin Factories

Article: The Rise of Bitcoin Factories: Mining for the Masses - Wall Street Journal

NOTE: The above article may only be available to non-subscribers for a limited time.

Bcause is a company that houses mining rigs for clients. But, they also want to offer cloud mining by charging $4,800 for one year of using one Antminer S9. I consider that to be unusable.

The objective of mining companies like Bcause is to make money off of your wanting to make money. It is unlikely that you will make your money back. Bitcoin difficulty continues to go up, and by time your S9 comes online, it is unlikely that you will be profitable. If you want Bitcoin at this point, you need to simply buy it.

It's really just too late to get into Bitcoin mining. Mining of other coins could possibly be profitable, but not Bitcoin. I bought one Bitcoin rig in October and received it in December. With that one, I will be working to break even on it. I might make a 100% profit on it over time, at the most. But, that's it. Bitcoin would have to go up quite a bit for it to be truly profitable.

I got into mining because I enjoy the technology, and I enjoyed the challenge of setting up my two Antminers, setting up the networking, setting up the electrical. But, I know that profitability, such as it is, is nothing to count on.

My 5 TH/s Bitcoin cloud mining at Genesis went online October 31 of last year. But, Genesis takes a 30% cut of what you make. And, while I will make my money back, that much of a hit to what I make should tell anyone that Bitcoin mining at Genesis, at this point, should be absolutely avoided.

Bitcoin and crypto investors and enthusiasts have been hoping for involvement by established financial institutions.

Now, a major provider of financial indices has established a set of crypto indices. VanEck has been wanting to start an ETF, an Exchange Traded Fund, for cypto. They have put that on hold, citing resistance by regulatory bodies. But, in the meantime, they have partnered with CryptoCompare.com to establish crypto indices ranging from ones dedicated to one cryptocurrency to those composed of a variety of currencies.

Scamcoins You Need to Avoid!

Article: A Closer Look at How Three of the Biggest Scamcoins Lure Its Investors - Bitcoin.com

Scams go hand in hand with crypto. Everyone needs to be very careful in the crypto space. Do your due diligence, then do it again! Only invest or mine established currencies. And, if you're mining, know that if you're mining new currencies, they could be vaporware and go adios, or tank, quickly. Remember, your Private Key is just that: PRIVATE! Do. Not. Ever. Share or post. Anywhere. Ever!

My First Mining Is Online!

Start Mining Now: Genesis Mining - Click for 3% Discount!

After waiting for a bit, my Bitcoin Mining is online! Today is my first day of BTC Mining, with 5 TH/s mining power through Genesis Mining.

Genesis is a cloud-mining service that lets you buy hashpower with crypto or even a credit card. I bought my Bitcoin Mining through a pre-order and it has now started. You can currently buy Zcash, Ether or Monero 2-year contracts and mining will start immediately.

My Bitcoin Mining contract is open ended. So, I will get continual hashpower unless Genesis finds Bitcoin mining to be unprofitable. Then, things could change. But, Bitcoin is the most resilient cryptocurrency, so prospects look good!

I will report back to tell you what the returns on my Bitcoin mining are.

Last week, I used a 3% off coupon and purchased 100 H/s of Zcash Mining. That instantly started producing returns:

MillerMine is Live!

Hello! This is my new blog and site, dedicated to Crypto Mining. I will document my work in mining a number of currencies, including Bitcoin and Litecoin. I am considering others, such as DASH and other altcoins.

I am already signed up for 5 TH/s of Bitcoin mining at Genesis Mining. It will start around October 31. I am shopping for ASIC Miners, and hope to have my first (or more!) by December 31.

I will also document all the different aspects of my mining projects, including hardware costs, electricity costs, pool costs, etc.

This is also the place where I will post links to news, articles and tips for how to make your mining as profitable as possible.

Thank you for viewing my new site! I hope that you find it useful!
