MineCrack 62 Posted November 1, 2013 Personally I don't think mining them is really worth the resources/effort. At one point I was mining LTC which was making me much more money than btc(fluxing prices etc then dumping them, haven't checked on ltc/btc in MONTHS though). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um63OQz3bjo ^ Client can be frustrating to sync the first time though. 1 1 HaplessIdiot and DeathGod reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Took me almost 2 days to get fully synced. Smoother than a babies bottom after that. If you wanna mine go for a AMD GPU mining rig, or if you have 5000$ waiting to be spent go for ASIC miners.

Rhododendron 994 Posted November 1, 2013 they could always just... cash out and then donate the real money. Yeah but that's always risky. Grimmace might be on there tail and they can't take any chances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reflex 2 Posted November 2, 2013 you really shouldn't use your gfx card to mine it. it uses of a lot of energy. if anything ,just buy a mining rig ( made to mine coins) 1 HaplessIdiot reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
