Exactly three weeks after this affair begun I am quitting the job of mining KOINs.

It's a disappointment. It's not mining and it's not as it was publicized.

With GPU mess and farm mining coupled with the so-called frequency setting, or better said the dice roll, and ETH fees, it's a fool's job for us regular guys.

I only wish I would have ditched the thing at least a week ago when KOIN was worth twice as much as it is today.


Here is the resume of my brief mining career.

WhatHow much / many?Remark
Submitted PoWs21no submissions at all in the last week
Biggest KOIN PoW1,754.054a single struck of luck?
Smallest KOIN PoW0.718 and 1.118the fees were $2.66 and $1.04 - a crying joke it was!
Transaction fees in total0.11263764 ETH or $43.64included are the fees for funding and selling
KOINs mined5,688.276around $77
Sale on Uniswap today0.20197826 ETHI had to learn how to connect Metamask with Ledger and how to swap the KOINs
Net profit0.08934062 ETHapp. $34.20

Wast it worth it? Two weeks of overburdening the CPU and leaching electricity for $34?

You are the judge. My opinion is clear.

I quit!


Here's the story of selling the stuff in pictures ...

Swap on Uniswap after I managed to connect Metamask with my Ledger Nano. Yet, the receiving address is controlled by Ledger device.

The transaction itself. I put a minimum gas fee in it to control the damage.

Got 0.201978263116296673 ETH or $76.97.

Better than nothing

What about the so-called miner? Let's start it up to see whether the loss of KOIN will be reflected?

It is!

Good riddance, I would say!


I know that some of you are buying cheap KOINs on Uniswap in hope that they will be worth more when this mining business is over. I wish you all good luck yet I don't believe there will be a happy ending.


I will put the numbers in the Summit 3300 article later ...
