Hey guys I was originally mining GLD, but realized that this won't do much to help the exchange value. I can either sell it, which is not great, or hold it, which again is not very useful. Not only that but it is not very profitable to mine GLD for the average Joe, even with the rising price (which is great).
What I have started to do, is use a "smart" pool. Its designers use their own algorithms to mine the most profitable coins at the moment and then convert them to BTC which they send to you. This makes me way more on average than I could just mining a single alt coin. What I then do is use that BTC to buy GLD, which actually nets me far more than mining alone AND brings value to the table.
For example, I can mine ~25 GLD with my computer/day without disrupting my regular activities (ie not when I'm sleeping or gaming), but with a smart pool I can acquire enough BTC to purchase ~54GLD per day. Doubling my GLD return AND helping to boost the price.
I use clever miner which can net me about 0.002BTC per day (not bad considering I just have one GTX 760) if I mine for about 8 hours a day. Here the link below, though there are several other smart pools out there. Something to think about. Every little thing can help GoldCoin rise to victory.
