Blocks were being found far faster than intended, daily coin emissions surged and GPU mining profitability temporarily went through the roof.<\/p>\n<p>In the video, we compare what an RTX 5090 could have mined when BC3 was still below one cent versus what those coins became worth after the price spike.<\/p>\n<p>We also look at one extreme early-miner example discussed during the livestream: roughly 2 million BC3 accumulated using a small group of RTX 5090 and RTX 4090 GPUs. At $0.17 per BC3, that theoretical balance was worth around $340,000 \u2014 and around $200,000 at $0.10 \u2014 BEFORE considering whether enough market liquidity exists to actually sell it all.<\/p>\n<p>But there is a huge catch.<\/p>\n<p>This profitability likely isn&#8217;t sustainable.<\/p>\n<p>Once BC3&#8217;s difficulty catches up with the increased hashrate, block times should normalize and current profitability could disappear very quickly. We saw a similar problem with BC2, where massive hashrate arrived, difficulty increased, miners left and the network was later stuck with extremely slow block times.<\/p>\n<p>Could BC3 follow the same path?<\/p>\n<p>And if we eventually see BC4, BC5 and more Bitcoin-derived GPU forks, could catching them early become an entirely new GPU mining strategy?<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd0e TOPICS COVERED<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin III BC3<br \/>\nBC3 GPU mining<br \/>\nSHA3-256t mining<br \/>\nRTX 5090 mining<br \/>\nRTX 4090 mining<br \/>\nGPU mining profitability<br \/>\nBitcoin fork mining<br \/>\nMining difficulty adjustment<br \/>\nEarly coin mining<br \/>\nGPU mining vs AI hosting<\/p>\n<p>#BC3 #GPUMining #CryptoMining #BitcoinMining #RTX5090<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udc40 FOLLOW RABID MINING<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udc26 Twitter\/X:<br \/>\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"678\" data-height=\"1000\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MiningRabid?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Posts by MiningRabid<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcf8 Instagram:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rabidmining\/<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcac Discord:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/discord.gg\/wXkMhztBDx<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfa5 Twitch:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/rabidmining<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd25 BEST MINING DEALS<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udda5\ufe0f Best CPU For Mining<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/geni.us\/PB8Tfv (PAID LINK)<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd25 Cheap GPUs<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/geni.us\/3BXU5g (PAID LINK)<\/p>\n<p>\u26a1 Solo Bitcoin Miners<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3V04Ahh\">Bitcoin Merch\u00ae &#8211; MARS LANDER V2 Lottery Miner<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd0c Power Meter Boxes<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.themeterbox.com\/rabidmining<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\ud83d\udcb0 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcb8 PayPal Support:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/paypal.me\/RabidMining<\/p>\n<p>BTC:<br \/>\nbc1q9k8cqpknlztfefmq2x0seu74zp5hk4eck5rtzn<\/p>\n<p>ETH:<br \/>\n0x17a7FaFb3821722aB9032f1Dd1089aC432896f63<\/p>\n<p>XMR:<br \/>\n494f5WTwi18GLfTdCeqEa5f6w2LHr9Ku18HUzAak1YACMmhXD8HQE8bMVouZ913fm5FTMf3EQBRAEGWewJuyWpBB1DkrT5t<\/p>\n<p>\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<br \/>\n\u26a0\ufe0f DISCLAIMER<br \/>\n\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501\u2501<\/p>\n<p>Rabid Mining is not a financial advisor.
