October Begins And Something MASSIVE HAS ARRIVED!

Image
Well folks, October could be our month as it has started off on an amazing note with our very first RTX 3090 arriving in the post on the 4th october, never thought I would see this day but its finally here! This thing literally cost a fortune, however, it has increased my mining profits to over £700 per month after electricity, which has now gone up in price by £0.03p/KwH. Bitcoin took a small tumble today, however its still sitting close to $57K and looks set to blast off again later in the month. The 3090 was a tight fit into the BEAST and the internet suffered an attack with a major Facebook outage on the same day I installed the card.... wonderful! On the 7th October, I got a notification from HOTBIT exchange that SHIBA INU has taken off... looks like buying that SHIB has paid off from last year!!!  Now $40 in profit!  The market price of SHIB is at $9.1B, its mental! Now at over 120,000 Pi Network Coins and things are going to get very interesting (yes a car for Pi) as we...

End of September Brings World Chaos And Major Chives Mining Upgrade!

Image
Chaos has hit the world, its post pandemic and tBrexit has started not only a petrol crisis but a volcano has erupted on La Palma threatening every major coastline in the Atlantic Ocean and some of the UK's electricity companies have gone bankrupt! BUT who cares about that because I am working from home and currently loving life with Bitcoin now on the way to $60K! Upgrades are in the picture for the end of the month and I have yet again been spending a crazy amount of money with the addition of a 36 My Book Duo External Hard Drive for CHIVES and a new Power Tower Plug to re-connect and safe the office from lightning strikes. In other news, I tested my internet connection the other day and got 60 meg down on a 4G connection... possibly a record? lol Another major update for  the end of this month is the office setup... which has changed from the small back room, to the front bedroom which has much better airflow and space. I have manged to jump on my computer chair and broke a whee...

Second Half September Updates And The End of September Looking Spicy!

Image
The second part of September has arrived and things have been moving steadily along with Bitcoin still climbing in price and mining going well! Windows was installed on the new system last week and it is now fully up and running with an AMD Ryzen 7, 16GB ram and a new SSD to make it fast as hell. The fan upstairs is having a nervous breakdown after being on for more than 100 days, may have to chuck it soon unless it saves itself. 700 Chives plots in 2 days means that the new CPU is amazing and is already making me money in Chives, I think £45 already. Overall, a shorter blog this week, Im not posting as much as I should and you will see a mega month for October as something big is planned! So far I'm not homeless, I own a ton of equipment, and I'm defo enjoying the Crypto lifestyle so stay tuned and keep mining!

Quiet Start To September BUT.... Something Has Arrived!!!!

Image
Well its been a fairly quiet start to September but mining income is very slowly going up as Bitcoin heads for $50K and everything continues to mine with steady pace and no issues. Purchased a computer today, from a friend, for roughly £100, who has upgraded to a new system and it has come in one of the biggest cases I have ever seen! Big plans for this, firstly the guts are getting ripped out and put into a safe place for a third computer build coming soon! Stay tuned. The plan for this is to eventually get a RTX 3090 as the airflow in here is amazing, however first of all we need to get some bits for it as CHIVES mining is going to be added to this as a second farmer. If all goes well, we should soon have a decent AMD CPU, set of RAM, good CPU FAN and motherboard in here with the 850W PSU and LED fans all staying put.  It came with a low grade GPU that I would consider to be the Queen trying to dig for gold... so nope, no mining on that! Google has taken $500 off me in TAX, im no...

End of August BIG Update And Some New Things Coming Soon

Image
Well, as we head into the end of August I can report that my earnings have gone up to £575 post electricity prices and I have made a 1 million purchase of SHIBA INU for $8, I will keep you updated with that! Another coin I have been mining for several days is something called HiveCoin, which is made by the same people who made RavenCoin, currently sitting on 2223 coins! Its the end of the road for the 1080 STRIX GPU and its getting sold on ebay, hopefully get about £350 for it as its still in mint condition, something hot coming to replace this next month! (I think) Im mining herbs now, in the form of CHIVES NETWORK, which is a CHIA fork and has already brought in 360 coins and is much faster albeit cheaper than CHIA. In electricity news, I got a new smart meter installed a couple of days ago, picture below for you all to see, and also look at that electricity usage now haha! Got new DJ lights arriving and im also looking at upgrading the Plug Extensions in the house to get ready for s...

CHIA Pool Mining And Bitcoin Has Begun The Climb To $100K

Image
Good morning everyone, what an insane few days it has been with Bitcoin beginning to climb back from its crazy Elon dump a few months back! I gave up on CHIA mining a couple of weeks back and decided to switch over to Pool mining which has slowly been aquiring CHIA at a steady rate and I now have close to 0.30 XCH. My Pi Network coins have grown like crazy over the last few months and I now sit on close to 90,000 coins.  I cannot wait for this to launch at the end of the year or the start of 2022. At $0.20 that would be $18,000 OMFG! My 1080 STRIX edition card is now running on "Pills" a new program which boosts its mining! It looks like DJ work has finally started to rear itself and bookings are coming in again, which is great as its another source of income. My YouTube channel (Non-Crypto) has also picked up with over £900 per month rolling in, more cards or hard drives coming soon then haha!

Temporaty Bitcoin Cooling System Installed And I Fixed a 2060 Super Rattle

Image
Into July 2021 now and Rig One is 7 months old, my god it feels wierd and I still have no idea just how much crypro I have mined. Anyway, today I purchased a new fan for the top office, which is really hot and is annoying to work in atm! Another issue which developed over the last few days was a rattle in one of the 2060 Super's on Rig 2! This has now been fixed by tightning the fan and cleaning the card completely. The setup is currently pulling in about £450 BTC/month after electricity costs but I'm off out tonight as everything is working so the blog ends here! Wooooooo!

Moving Day and Setting Up In The New Mining House!

Image
Well today has been a while coming and I will never forget that I started my Bitcoin Mining Journey in this dinky little flat with only three rooms... But this new house has 5 rooms and its going to be fantastic to get onto an electricity supply that does not require me to have to worry about it 27/7. Rig 2 has been moved upstairs and I am currently in the process of getting it setup in the new mining office, which is slightly small but I dont think its going to be a problem. Rig 1 is going to live downstairs for now as its bigger and more tricky to get upstairs / in office. Its Starting to get seriously warm and summer is making itself known, the next few months will be saving some cash and making sure to keep all this equipment cool. I'm thinking about ordering some fans as now the rigs are up and running its VERY hot upstairs!!! Also... the house now has a landline telephone system (no fiber here tho so 4G mining is in)

I'm Moving House! Its Time To Get Off This Crazy Electricity!

Image
The time has come and moving day is not far away! I have managed, through a good friend, to aquire a 2 bedroom house in the middle of knowhere and away from the crazyness of the town where I live. Big plans are afoot and as you can see from the picture above, the boxes to move all the mining equipment have begun to be assembled. There are 2 reasons for moving, I need a three bedroom house eventually but for now this givesd me 2 bedrooms for more space, dedicated mining office and dedicated electricity supply. I have also aquired a new internet router from EE which is a 4G MiFi router and works without a phone line, meaning I will soon be mining on their 4G network! In other news I have been mining a new coin on my phone called Pi Network and have about 8,000 coins atm with more people joining all the time, prices of this coin at launch could hit $1.50, could bne interesting and I will keep you updated! Hard drive mining is crap, nothing yet and its been a while now, might need to find ...

I'm mining... BUT Things Are Taking a Turn For The Worst :(

Image
Well the last few months have been great and some days I am seeing over £30 per day in mining income, before electricity costs of course, which are starting to become a NIGHTMARE. I'm getting funny looks topping up my key meter in town, literally as im doing it twice a week! HOWEVER, Elon Musk decided he no longer likes Bitcoin and has crashed the coin to close to $30,000 dollars before it went back up a little, TBH tho its looking like the great CRASH of 2021 is here! Even worse, I have not yet found any CHIA and it looks like the network space may be growing too quickly for me to aquire any with my current drives. Dogecoin has taken off after Eon pumped it, I swear to god I had 12 million of them a few years back, my life is annoying haha. Currently working on a couple of side projects including my own Net Worth website, overall however, things in the crypto price world are BAD
