First payouts from Skypool should be through to everyone.

Who's still mining? Any news on when NIM will hit exchanges?

I'm a bit annoyed that the minimum transferable amount is 0.01NIM.

From mining yeah, putting in 500 Kh. Have a lot more in genesis block that I've been holding since last year. I have a lot of faith in this coin and team and can see it doing a XRB once added to the right exchange. Only thing I'm worried about short term is miners dumping, but will probably just stack up more then. But long term I reckon at least top 10, just my .02

If you really want to get some cheap NIM without mining at this point, I'd try lowballing people that are trying to get rid of their NET on discord or telegram. You'll have to go through activation then which will take some time.

1NET=100NIM

You have $1.85 if the current NET price is $2.5. It’s easier to just buy the tokens.

[Anonymous No.8924599]

You guys should keep mining, once browser pool will be up the hashrate will do a x2 easily and could do even more. I don't give a fuck if I do 3 dollars a day right now, it's all about future price.

https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/

digitalocean seems to be the best (price wise) from the research i have done in the past. i'm considering one of those two packages, and if i am breaking even (assuming 2.5cent/nim) then i'll keep going, or scale up. i wanna keep it small for now though, until its on an exchange so my expenses aren't too big.

honestly, just email them and ask them, but from what i have seen on the nimiq discord, digitalocean doesn't recommend it (because BTC mining isn't profitable) but they don't really care if you do. the optimized droplets are meant to used for high intensity stuff anyway...

You can buy NET, they are ERC20 tokens from the ICO to redeem against NIM (1 NET=100 NIM).

Super easy for normies, crazy potential for monetization (basically coinhive but decentralized).

No GPU miners for now and the algorithm (Argon2) doesn't give an advantage to GPU.

Easiest solution is to use skypool if you don't have a lot of hashing power.

>Do I need to register my own domain with an SSL certificate?
No you can use --dumb, you will be able to connect to other nodes but not the opposite however.

[Anonymous No.8926201]

Twice as fast, but get the one from Skypool.org. Look under their tutorial section and download the one from their github that fits your system. It explains in the readme how to set it up.

[Anonymous No.8926288]

Ah I didn't realize the link on skypool's tutorial page was actually a different miner. I was looking all over for an address. So if I would put the address for skypool in the official miner that would work too?

Skypool is completely unrelated to the official Nimiq miner.
It's easier to use though, you just put one of their server addresses and you wallet adress in the config file then it mines and you get a payout every day at 00:00 UTC+8.

It's not surprising, GPU mining is an ultra competitive market, CPU not so much.

Mining is mostly for brainlets, those people with shitloads of GPU rigs in their basement should've just bought ETH or whatever they are mining and get a far higher ROI.
