I just wanted to let you know that you would save a lot of time and heartache on mining if you would just switch to cloud mining.
I have been using hashflare for a couple of months and the the returns are real for sure. They are 1 of 2 cloud mining companies I would use. My return on investment is about 2 months if BTC stays the same, or even quicker if BTC improves(almost there!). You can mine Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dash, and ZCash. Pick your winner! I am also investing in Ethereum. There is a Christmas 10% bonus program going on right now. I didn't register with it so I missed out on the 10%. I am kicking myself. You can do your own research but hashflare is a winner. Here is the promotion link.
ONLY GOOD FOR NEW ACCOUNTS

In all fairness I get a referral bonus but you get what I didn't.
