Hey Guys, I just wanted to know how good the 970,980 Was for bitcoin Mining!

Your better of getting ASIC miners they can be cheaper and have a much better hash rate.

IMHO bitcoin is a failed experiment. After a few years it's still rarely used for things that aren't at least a little bit sketchy. Now all go back to actually work for your money instead letting a computer waste power while resting on your lazy butt.

I don't know why people are still on the BTC hype train, it's not open anymore, unless you have thousands to spend on ASICs. 

There are a plethora of other algos, I don't know why so many people are centralised around BTC  <_<

 

And yes I was trying to make a pun with, decentralised mining :P
