2) LTC/Doge merge
3) ETC
4)
5) Grin
6) other as I run a hotspot.  So I voted for every one but number 4

1 and 4,

About the 1), I only solo mine BTC and BCH. BCH solo mining makes me living (always swap my BCH to BTC lol), and solo BTC is like a lotterie for me.

I had to stop mining Scrypt when most of my L3 hashboards died one by one. I won't complain, they were over profitable but for now I don't want to buy L7. Phil, do you convert your mined LTC + DOGE to BTC or do you hodl doge? LTC looks more and more like a safe bet IMO for the next bull, even if I don't hold any, I think it could give great profits.

As long as I have my current contracts (electricity), I will continue to support the XMR network. I have a pretty massive hashrate thanks to engineering CPU samples. It would be a loss to mine with a 0,1 or 0,08 usd per kwh, but for now I am far from these ranges so I continue. I will have to stop soon as the  price will for sure go up, we will see..

From your experience, are L7s as stable and durable as L3s?

WE have 3 first batch they are all working fine. Jan 2021 to Jan 2024

I just wanted to see the results so I chose 6. I just do a freelance job in the crypto market, I don't have enough financial resources and technological understanding to participate in the mining market. If I could, I would choose BTC because of its popularity and guaranteed profits. DOGE is also interesting, but it seems that DOGE's future depends a lot on Elon's personality. Monero is often suggested by mining applications but I also do not believe in the growth potential of privacy coins

Guys, I'm not mining now, but I used to be and I used to mine on video cards zek coin) Can you tell me if now it is profitable without having a free outlet, I had a lot of friends in mining and all long ago abandoned it, has it really become profitable again without resorting to tricks ?

Would be off-topic here, but I would be very curious to know why you don't believe in privacy coins. Regulations and laws are always more strict, and a lot of people (including myself) believe that XMR and some other privacy coins give a real solution and that their adoption will grow more in the near future.
We could discuss it in the privacy coin section of the forum if you want ; it could be interesting

4)

For me looks like
2)
3)
4)....till 1000

I'm on BTC alone, anything else makes little sense now, I would need again investment, I would need to deal with the gear and although I could probably squeezer 10KW this year what I lack most is time! I won't be able to deal with those, the S19 I still have are running alone and I only cleaned them once in November, my guts tell me if they go and brake down I'm just going to dump them for parts and that's it!

What does a free outlet mean?
Can you plug 30KW on it and nobody would care or you have like 10kwh a month to spare?
It's not just about having cheap electricity but how much of it!

You can't have adoption with exchnges dropping them and merchants forced to not accept them it will be basically a BTC during SR times, with the same usage.

Great idea, curious to see what some other members will have to say on the matter.

Anyone mining sha256 altcoins ?

Like XEC, DGB (lol), BCH etc..

I had to google what XEC is... 
Some of us might be mining BCH even without knowing, a lot of pools offer the so called smart mining option, which would mean that if for a period is more profitable to mine BCH than BTC they will point your hashrate towards that, one of the main reason while income per th/s for btc and bch is almost the same.
DGB...no idea, wasn't that a multi algo coin?

[paid2]

I had to google what XEC is... 

Lol yeah, it is not the most famous coin 
I have some laying around, as I tried to mine XEC on Viabtc maybe 2 or 3 years ago, not sure.

DGB...no idea, wasn't that a multi algo coin?

Yeah absolutely! SHA-256, Scrypt, Qubit, Skein, and Groestl algos.... I am wondering who is still giving hashrate to DGB's blockchain, IMO this coin is an perfect example of fail
