Now For Mining Crypto Currency
Welcome to JacksCrafts
PeckerHead Minging Co.
I have had to quit doing wood working. Just too much sawdust in my lungs. So I have turned to a new adventure..
The World of Crypto Currency!
My main focus here will be on Mining Crypto currency. Anyone can mine for crypto, all you need is a PC with a graphics card. While you can mine with just your CPU, I find it is not all that profitable.
At todays rates a GPU can easily pay for itself in less than one year. But moreover everyone should be accumulating some bitcoin for their future. Over the next 10 years the value will only go up.
Check Out my new website Fantom City
Learn About DEFI - investing for everyone
With a GPU you are mining for Proof of Work (POW) coins as opposed to Proof of Stake (POS).
Bitcoin is a POW coin but requires more expensive equipment to mine. But you can earn bitcoin directly with mining pools like 2miners.com or The system I use is NiceHash.com, The great thing about this method is you can accumulate bitcoin without the need to exchange it. When mining other coins like RavenCoin or Etherium and then you exchange those coins for Bitcoin you may owe income taxes on that money immediately. It is just like buying and selling stocks.
Please realize that mining coin is working therefore you are earning income.
If you are just mining to re-coop some of the HIGH cost of your GPU, who cares. But if you are earning thousands of dollars a year, you should report your income on your taxes.
Once you start earning some coin (income) you will want to send it to a Wallet.
There are different kinds of wallets. Every 2 days I transfer the coins I have earned, that are sitting in my NiceHash wallet to my Coinbase wallet. From there I can exchange it for cash to send to my checking account and make payments on my GPU purchases.
Note: both Coinbase and Binance US offer free ACH transfers.
The best online Crypto Wallet is Exodus (Free Download)
https://www.exodus.com/
Free to use this is the highest rated wallet to have on your PC and it can even be integrated with the hardware wallet Trezor. With Exodus you have the keys to your wallet. Unlike parking your coin on an exchange where they own the keys. For me, I am a trader so it is Hi Ho, Hi Ho it is off to the exchange I go.
Lots of choices for Mining
There a lot of pools to mine from directly or use a program (see examples below).
NiceHash free no matter how many rigs. Payout every 4 hrs in Bitcoin. You can transfer to Coinbase for free. But it only cost like 15¢ per $100 to transfer Bitcoin to another wallet.
Krytex – Good if you want to turn your earnings into Amazon Gift cards. But have a large fee for transferring Bitcoin.
Unminable – gives a huge choice of coins to receive.
HiveOS (they have a referral program) charge a fee for all your rigs once you hit 5 rigs. But they do have the most bells and whistles. 4 FREE rigs with as many GPU’s as you can fit on a rig.
Security Note: You should edit /hive-config/vnc-password.txt
to change default password from 1 to something else. This is the “Shell In A Box” password.
CoinBase for Crypto? You can earn over $30 free coins for taking some short quizzes.
Binance U S may be the best Platform choice overall. For PRO tools go with Binance, Kraken or KuCoin or Coinbase Pro.
This is my referral link to Coinbase.com https://www.coinbase.com/join/shreve_f7 .
I started out using Kraken for the low fees. And with Kraken you are not required to send your photo ID to be able to trade cryptocurrency like Binance US. But I found their list of coins is not as large as Binance U.S. or Coinbase.
Note: After you earn your free coins you can Convert them immediately into Bitcoin or some other coin you want.
If you are looking to collect interest on your stable coins you might want to check on Gemini. But staking is getting pretty common now. If you have FOMO (fear of missing out), just buy some Ethereum (ETH) and stack those coins somewhere to draw some interest. ETH is a better deal than Bitcoin financially now in my opinion. 05 25 2021 Although the difference between POW and POS is a big debate. Read this article here.
Added note: You can stake DOGE in Gemini.
I named my Watch List for cryptocurrency “Tales of the Crypt”
Here are some of the Stock Market Ticker symbols I have in my watchlist.
$SOS $LGHL $COIN $OLB $MARA $EQOS $DPW $CAN $EBON $RIOT
Here is a large list of cryptocurrency you can follow CoinTraker and Coin Gecko
Or at the Coin Desk you can check in real time the prices of Coins. Here is the Top 20 List. The CoinDesk has lots of information about crypto such as:
Dogecoin has 1 minute block intervals making it faster than other blockchains. There is no cap to the supply of coins and thus the coin can inflate infinitely. Do Your DD.
The best online Crypto Wallet is Exodus

Free to use this is the highest rated wallet to have on your PC and it can be integrated with the hardware wallet Trezor.

One of these days Alice, to the MOON!
Jackie Gleason said it best.
Hedge Funds in the past have thought of us retail traders as lowly APES. But now we own it.
Together we can fight the hedge funds who have manipulated the stock market for years to benefit the rich by screwing the retail traders
There are many Classes of APES in the Troop
You can be any and all of these stock market apes, As the need arises
Am I bananas? I must be since I play in the Stock Market. It is one crazy and manipulated world. One that is more often manipulated toward the large hedge funds and not to the benefit of the retail traders. But with Free trades and more readily available platforms the retail trader is gaining strength. And with the APE revolution we are getting smarter and finding ways to fight back.
Just look at what good can come out of an Ape attack. GME was facing bankruptcy, but now they have money in the bank and are finding a new path which may make them a strong and solvent company for many years into the future. When the hedge funds would have let them die.
So come on and join the Stock APE revolution. When stock APES make a movement you can smell it in the air.
Ape Make Fire Now
A Call for Mo APE
MO is my best friend, he got his name from the Mohawk he is sporting. He is a good pal to have around when you need to call in the troops.
MO is an indicator that we need more Apes to join in on a stock. Just think if a million apes bought 2 shares each of a stock. That could give us some strength to fight the Hedge Hogs.
MO APE Come NOW
.
GoB APE when you are feeling like just being one of the Troop
Most of the time you just feel like monkeying around. And going a little bananas.
So go ahead and GO BE an APE.
But be ready for the call to arms. For tomorrow we may be called upon to become Hedgeanator APES.
No matter how Large or Small you are
when we band together we all can become
Hedgeanator APES
Razorback APE
Razorbacks tend to have a little more intellect than the average Silverback ape. Some times we need to bring out the big guns. Razorbacks have the knowledge and experience we need sometimes to boost our confidence. And they can exercise brute force if the option is needed.
Me Say Time Now
Silverback APE
For those times when you just have to stand STRONG and hold tight. You may at times need a little gorilla glue to hang on to a stock. And if you give a silverback enough rope, he will tie a hedge fund manager by the heals and dangle him until he cries mommy.
ME Sniff Gorilla Glue

MEME APE
MEME is a nickname for Millennial Me. Strictly technical when it comes time to buy and sell stock. MEME is all about swing trading. MEME SAY Get In MEME SAY Get Out MEME SAY Move ON
Millennials – Wikipedia
Psychologist Jean Twenge defines millennials as those born 1980–1994. … Individuals born in the Generation X and millennial cusp years of the late 1970s and early-to-mid-1980s have been identified as a “microgeneration” with characteristics of both generations.
The first published case of the word meme (pronounced “Meem,” not me-me), dates back to Richard Dawkins’ 1976 book, The Selfish Gene. But this type of Ape is pronounced “Me – Me”
Me MEME Ape - MEME like Wick UP
MEME No Buy Wick UP

Starting out you may feel a little out of place. It is ok to let people know you are a NEW B Ape. There are lots of things you will pick up from the older more experienced ones in the Troop.

MOLE APE - Very Rare and endangered species. Shhh... don't tell Heggy
MOLE Apes are rare indeed. We have them implanted in hedge funds everywhere. They are experts when it comes to blending in. Moles are willing to risk everything for the cause. Their jobs, careers and family can be hurt. So please don’t acknowledge them if you ever recognize one.
