Wow a lot of inspiration from your post! And a lot of questions!!!!
1-Why use Minergate if they will charge quite a bit when you try to withdraw? Even windows 10 has a bitcoin miner totally free.
2-How much did you spend to set up the first mining system? Is it working for you??
I totally agree with you about reinvesting the earnings!we have little to earn or loose, better to dream big and look into a brighter future!
Steem on, new follower in your list! ;-)
Thanks!
I actually use the Claymore miner for Bytecoin and BFGminer for Litecoin and just direct it to the Minergate pool. I tried other pools, but they seemed about the same as far as shares. As for how much they charge I honestly hadn't looked that close at their fees. I will definitely look into that and may have to make a change.
The graphics card I already had since I like to do some light gaming, but its about a $80 GPU if I remember right. The Gridseed 5 chip miners can be bought anywhere from $40-$50 on eBay.
