like yesterday eth mining was worth 5~dollarydoos with a 3080
now its up to around 8~dollarydoos

3080 ROI 4 months
3090 ROI 8 months

I was thinking about building a new pc and throwing 3090s in there because they were the only ones in stock, they are getting sold out now though, which now would be 500$ a month from mining now, and I can't do anything else with my money, but still pretty long ROI, have I dun goofed?

will mining become unworth within 8 months?
any miners here?

$PHR PantsOnHeadRetarded is a yield farming NFT project with wrapping capabilities similar to REN and Aavegotchi. That is all. Read more in the Medium article.

twitter.com/HeadRetarded

https://dogred1.typeform.com/to/tBXTqqM6

Airdrops are given based on effort, go create publicity for the project. Below you can find a few links to telegrams and discords, there's plenty more crypto instagram facebook, twitter, free discord self-advertising channels to pick from.

Website coming soon.

We're aiming for a 1M marketcap current supply starting point before I launch on Uniswap
10% of the current supply will be airdropped.
5 effort-loving lucky investors get to buy tokens -50% cheaper with an exact amount of 2 ethereum per each person and also receive a limited edition pair of pants NFTs.
Presale will start once we get enough exposure and investors.

PHR planned tokenomics
Total supply - 20k tokens
10k presale+airdrop
6k for farming
4k for advertisement funds.

making it profitable later? you get the same amount of coins right? if the difficulty stayed the same

>>25610016
>3090's vram gets hot as lava while mining
I think it's because 3090 has double sided vram and only one side is cooled, compared to a 3080 it only has vram on one side

In this way it might be profitable, but it's probably easier to just buy the tokens. In the end nicehash also got hacked, though they have just now repaid the stolen funds in BTC.

I'm running nicehash again now anyway when my machine is idle (currently 2USD/day) since I'm heating the house with electricity anyway. If you're not doing that then your electricity cost will probably overtake it soon enough, making it even more unprofitable.
