Testing the water before an Antminer L3+
Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2017 6:56 am
I'm thinking about buying some L3+ units. I'd rather have a simple process (even if that's not the most cost effective route).
My understanding is one approach (I appreciate there are many):
L3+ - connects to Prohashing.
Prohashing transfers to my Coinbase account in BTC.
Coinbase can then transfer to my UK bank account (in Euros).
Prohashing takes a 4.99% cut of the work completed and Coinbase take a 1% commission for transfers. My bank will then convert the EUR to GPB (taking their own slice at the same time).
This is the goal for me - to extract value, rather than accumulate Litecoins.
But I'd like to test out the process; even if it's not efficient in terms of ROI. I want to try the entire process from end-to-end, before I invest in 3 or 4 L3+s.
To that end, I was going to put together a far slower machine (2 or 3 GPUs). Wait (a while...) until I reach the Prohashing threshold and then test out the Prohashing > Coinbase > UK Bank process.
Assuming that I haven't completely got it wrong, what Software would you recommend that will work well with ProHashing.Com for LiteCoins on either Windows or Linux?
E.g. Litecoin GUI Miner, Litecoint Miner (different from the first one?), AwesomeMiner
Thanks in advance
