Succeeding in the cryptocurrency mining industry over the long term may require thinking outside of the box.
The Wall Street Journal recently published a video of a CoinTerra mining datacenter located in Utah.
Manchester, UK-based Alpha Technology, which plans to bring a powerful scrypt miner to market, says that it still has a key partnership with Dexcel Designs in place.
Alpha currently lists two different Viper models on its website: a base model, specced at 50MH/s of hashing power at 375W, and a more powerful version with 250MH/s at 1,875W. Better Business Bureau warns on mining.
Cryptocurrency mining is now drawing the scrutiny of the Better Business Bureau, an independent consumer advocacy group - and it seems CoinTerra is the mining company drawing the most attention.
The BBB offers a number of tips for people interested in acquiring mining equipment to better protect themselves.
According to Coinmarketcap, there are 33 cryptocurrencies with a market capitalization over $1m. So is there potential in mining coins that most people don't know about?
Mining relative unknowns such as infinitecoin and zetacoin could be profitable, but is essentially a bet on the long-term success of altcoins.
With the potential profits from bitcoin mining so high, it is no surprise bad actors are attempting to attack or trick pools, who need to be vigilant about such attacks.
