    Any more info on the mobius release? Why do you like stellar soo much? Just curious because you and I hold a similar portfolio so maybe we are looking at similar things

    Just an ATX AMD Phenom quad core board out of my gaming/music recording PC.

    I looked into some of those cards, but they’re pricy. Trying to get the most bang for my buck.

    That’s awesome! How do you get that all set up? Be cool to make the most possible at all times!

    Stellar stood out to me because of what they had to offer and the fact that it is open source. It was really the first one I had researched but not sure why I chose to look into it initially lol. Looking back, their growth really stood out to me. Saw them back on Dec. 6


    Also side note, the founder of Ripple parted ways with Ripple and started up Stellar. He took what he felt was the best of Ripple and wanted to improve it.

    Ok... potentially stupid question time :D

    If mining (verifying transactions) keeps getting harder, eventually it becomes pointless for consumer level hardware and your average Joe to do it.
    I would imagine that the number of people doing it would drop off as it got more difficult and less profitable. Wouldn't this make the coin non-functional as the number of miners approached 0? :confused:

    it should find a balance of profit to costs for the miners, if profitability drops miners move onto a more profitable coin, then the original coin becomes profitable for the guys left in it.
    or new hardware will show up like ASIC's did for BTC which can solve faster, and knocks all other equipment out of that coin.
    I know a bit but honestly I know next to nothing, I've learned off the internet so I may have learned bullshit.
    before I built my mine I had never built a computer, or even installed windows.
    In real life I work heavy equipment in electrical construction projects, like excavators and backhoes, skidsteers and fix them.

    looks kinda like that.
    I tried slapping the cards in a gutted out computer frame and they got too hot.

    Recently picked up Utrust (UTK) at $0.82 and PO.ET (POE) at $0.09

    Utrust hit Kucoin a few days ago at 0.20 then dropped to 0.13 and has been climbing since. POE seems like a good coin with an interesting concept. Check em both out!

    I have a small apartment, and my dog loves to play, which usually involves death-shaking his toys, which get flung everywhere. I want it to be safe, self contained, and well vented.

    That case comes with 5 fans, with the option to add 3 more, or add in water cooling.

    I’d run open air if I had the space, but I don’t. Plus the case is only $150 with the fans included. Plus it’s a full size tower cube. It’s huge!

    I've currently got about 90% of funds in XRP, debating on taking some out to move it into more active coins now that XRP is at a high point. Thoughts?

    Here's the 12 gpu board I found. It requires risers though. Not terribly pricey, $209 on preorder.
