For those interested in something a bit newer in crypto...

epic.tech

MimbleWimble privacy protocol and MUCH more scalable than Bitcoin. The chain actually does not store every single address and every single transaction. It consolidates into the current state.

Currently about 45 cents per coin. Mineable with CPU, GPU and ASIC with three different algorithms too.

Mcap?

jimboscott 1 point ago +1 / -0

Pretty small. 21 million total mint. Currently just over 1/3 mined. Market Cap is 4.3 million. Just about 15 months old. Launched in September of 2019.

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/epic-cash/markets/

Disclaimer... I was there at the launch and have mined it every day since.

Is mining this stuff free? and easy? I always wondered how this shit works

If you have some decent GPU's handy you can mine EPIC CASH. I have about 15 GPU's mining it right now and hit about 4-5 blocks per day for a total of roughly 30 to 38 coins. That's only about 16.00 USD per day, but in a year... could easily be ten times that much... or more... or less.

Most I eve mined in a day was about 2800 about 14 months ago. So that day was 1200.00 USD at today's price.

Speculative to be certain, but I really prefer things that are community based (this is) and occupy a unique position (this does, as it is a privacy coin that has low emission and low inflation).

I only have one pc that is decent. maybe its not worth it for me.

You power bills will likely exceed any Bitcoin gains now the hash rate has increased. You'd need a dedicated mining rig and ideally a low cost source of power. You may be able to mine alt coins more cost effectively but their gains are less stable and can drop to zero (many have). All cryptos are extremely volatile.

It is awesome right up until the make it illegal. then worthless. For those of you who think they cannot do that effectively... Most people know that they have unfettered access to everybody's phones, they can simply see who has any apps or wallets for it, and boom, knock, knock.. the is the police....

Its banned in quite a few countries.. mostly Muslim nations. China heavily restricts it and has banned crypto exchanges, however China has one of the largest crypto mining operations in the world. You are aware that you don't have to hold your Bitcoin in your own nation?

1

And, I assume you are aware that no nation holds any Bitcoin to begin with because everyone has the exact same ledger. Your cryptocurrencies are truly without boundary. They exist on the network. That means they are at once both everywhere and... in one sense... nowhere.

entirely aware. Agree with you entirely also.

dindunufin2 1 point ago +1 / -0

they would only enforce a worldwide ban on the switch to Govt issued and controlled crypto currencies, which is the plan. Do you really think they cannot eliminate it in this electronic world?

1
SPONGE 1 point ago +1 / -0

"which is the plan" ? How do you ban a decentralized system? bit like saying we're banning the Intranet.

Use your brain, and stop drinking the kool-aide. Do you understand that AI systems actively monitor all phones in real time? Just how would you use BTC then with 10 years in prison and lose all your money if they catch you transacting in it? Remember, it takes many people to use it for it to remain viable.

1
SPONGE 1 point ago +1 / -0

I was asking a question - you didnt answer but told me to use my brain.

Q: How does nuclear fission work? - A. use your brain. ? :) Going by your reaction I'm leaning towards you not being particularly informed. Bitcoin is a decentralized GLOBAL ledger. Not sure what your phone calls being monitored has to do with it? IF it was made illegal (which is unlikely given the investments world banks are putting into it you would still be able to hold it outside your national boundary.. think offshore banking. Got a feeling what I'm saying will be lost on you. I suggest you invest in aluminum or tin.. ideally foil.

Ya, you are an idiot. I have been heavily involved in cryptos for many years. What happened to BTC is anonymous? Turns out it is anything but. What happened to it is unshockable, except for Quantum computers? now that it is well known that there are many Quantum computers, ... crickets... It has NOTHING to do with phone calls being monitored, maybe that is why you think you are correct. You are like a little boy thinking the whole world is his little playground... news flash... it is a little bit bigger, and there is more going on, and just because you cannot conceptualize it, doesn't mean it is not there. BTC was created and designed by the bankers to train idiots like you to use it, and think it is a good idea, not knowing or suspecting at all you are building the walls of your own prison. Ignorance is not the lack of knowledge, it is the illusion of it.

I'm an idiot then blah blah paranoid theory of everything . I dont have time to decipher the above nonsense. zzz :)

btc has been taken over my communists and anarchists who are really just communists as well.

1
SPONGE 1 point ago +1 / -0

How does one take over something that is public and decentralized.. just asking?

1
xBigFatGoat 1 point ago +1 / -0

The developers that's how. They have full power over BTC. It is really decentralized when the devs are like Gods that can change the protocol whenever?

1
SPONGE 1 point ago +1 / -0

Can u expand on that? e.g. The internet uses TCP protocol ...not sure the guys that designed TCP can just change it and stop the interwebs? :)

I said the same thing earlier today. If theres any chance of your assets being seized then funnel it into Bitcoin where it's safe from Gov. Then book you flight. :)
