when i cashed out my 3000 litecoins?
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:19 AM UTC
not when they were $400 in december
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:19 AM UTC
got like a tenth what i could have.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:19 AM UTC
It’s only 855 grand or so USD
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:19 AM UTC
instead of 120K would have been 1.2 mill
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:20 AM UTC
yeah whats 800K give or take, thats kids play
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:20 AM UTC
hindsight is 20/20. make the best decisions you can at the time.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:20 AM UTC
could have bought a fleet of new rigs on the december batch in cash and not cared
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:20 AM UTC
And watched the profit roll in.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:21 AM UTC
i spent 60K of it on new miners
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:21 AM UTC
Well, the way the market is shaping up, you can still make a small fortune
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:21 AM UTC
so im still making coins...just gonna be a while til I roll up another 3000
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:21 AM UTC
I am earning mine very, very slowly.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:21 AM UTC
Gotta safve up for an L3+ now.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:22 AM UTC
was a lot more promising in december
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:22 AM UTC
seem like how many i was getting cut by 75% in a week
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:22 AM UTC
like...right around the same time BCC died.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:22 AM UTC
It was. again, I wish I got in on this back in November. I would be sitting on an L3_ now.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
all my coin earnings died too 8(
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
you had your money tied up in nicehash too?
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
i just keep making really bad timing on all my decisions

You can get one on eBay if you want to start now. I would not pay more than $3k for the Antminer L3+ plus the PSU. You will make between $16-$20 per day based on your electricity cost.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
i was taking payouts every other day
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
so the most i got stuck with was under 1K
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:23 AM UTC
My litecoin sits on my wallet on my PC. safe and sound.
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:24 AM UTC
When LTC was $300+ I was making $23-$25 per day.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:24 AM UTC
I take it as I earn it. The only person I trust, is me.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:26 AM UTC
i liked it more back when LTCs were only 55$
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:26 AM UTC
i was still making basically the same amount but stockpiling a crap ton more coins per day
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:26 AM UTC
yeah. mining difficulty was almost nil
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:26 AM UTC
need a market crash before that happens again
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:27 AM UTC
rebound sometime in the fall.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:28 AM UTC
Then I could buy in/mine some more
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:29 AM UTC

NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:30 AM UTC
There is one nearby for $3000CAN with PSU. so I am eyeballing that as my saving point
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:31 AM UTC
I have the S9 coming Feb 20th from the last batch purchase, I hope to do better than my L3+
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:31 AM UTC

NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:32 AM UTC
wherever I get the best deal is where I am buying.
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:32 AM UTC
Well, the best deal is to wait and not be mining for 2 months.
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:32 AM UTC
and 3 months later (or so) I am buying another. Trade LTC for hardware. then 2 months after that.
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:32 AM UTC
hmmm, maybe not the best deal.
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:33 AM UTC
I watch for people that can’t deal with the noise and have no seller rating on eBay. No one wants to take a risk and buy used from them. I DID!
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:34 AM UTC
long as you pay paypal and follow all the rules you are covered
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:35 AM UTC
it shows up and only hashes at 490 instead of their advertised 500
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:35 AM UTC
they forget to add the + - 5% or 10%
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:35 AM UTC
you have every right for them to pay shipping both ways and you get it all refunded, every dime
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:35 AM UTC
so they have to describe it well...or not at all
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:35 AM UTC
and you have to nail them down the specs
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:36 AM UTC
I could say I am selling a L3+
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:36 AM UTC
and send you a empty shell L3+ no boards no controller
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:36 AM UTC
and Id be legit and legal, you got a L3+ never said it worked, never claimed it hashed
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:36 AM UTC
I would do unmentionable things that might be considered prostitution for an L3+
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:36 AM UTC
It’s all about the feel from the seller, ask questions.
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:37 AM UTC
pin them down so you know what it is they are selling
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:37 AM UTC
if they tow the bitmain ad...and it doesnt live up to that, you get to decide..its not as advertised, i want it all refunded ill go someplace else
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:39 AM UTC
ANTMINER-L3-LITECOIN-MINER-504MH-s-Pre-Order-March - For #3k on Ebay now
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:39 AM UTC
and is that now or the march batch?
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:39 AM UTC
or you could dump 1700 into the crypto market, and be ready for the next sale batch and just buy one direct
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:40 AM UTC
3K buy now...and when does it hsip?
greaseman316 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:40 AM UTC
thats just crazy and you cant do crap else with them
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:40 AM UTC
so its the same one you can buy for 1700
NiteshadeSc2 · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:40 AM UTC
That is retarded. prepay for something on ebay you wont see for 3 months
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:41 AM UTC
well, it’s $1,850 plus shipping
AppleMiner · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:41 AM UTC
they raised the price some that batch then
mining4fun · Sun Jan 07, 2018 06:41 AM UTC
and most on eBay offer with PSU
