Mining for Dollars (or the next best thing)

In addition to my BOX miners, I have some GPU miners. With those, I can sell hashrate for BTC on Nicehash, or mine a variety of tokens.
Sites like unmineable.com have you mine using ethash, etchash, kawpow and even RandomX (on a CPU). Whatever token you are actually mining is sold by unmineable to buy the token you want and shown in your dashboard.
So while the value of whatever you mine fluctuates, you can get “paid” in USDT (Tether US$ stablecoin).
Obviously, this is not for folks that want to hold tokens, but want cash. The conversation fee from USDT to US$ is insignificant on most exchanges/wallets, and you can get your cash.
The “payout” is similar to getting paid in any altcoin on unmineable except that only one side of the transaction has a value that fluctuates (whatever you are mining). Even using nicehash on GPUs mines DaggerHashimoto for ETH, so there’s price fluctuation there and when you’re paid in BTC.
So if you’re wanting dollars, this is pretty efficient.
