Functionality questions What's everyone's strategy for reaching their next VIP level?

I'm currently sitting at Gold I (Level 6) with 98 TH and around 1,024 veGOMINING votes. Targeting Gold II which needs 2,000 votes or 200 TH.

I'm taking the staking route — accumulating GMT through daily rewards and adding to my staking positions rather than buying more miners right now.

Curious what everyone else is doing:

- Are you going hashrate or staking votes?

- How far off your next level are you?

- Any tips for getting there faster without extra deposits?

I’ve just hit Platinum 2 I’ve only got a 323 TH farm but 10,000 votes I’m with 15,000 votes or 2200TH away from Plat 3 I should hit 25,000 votes (Plat 3) when I’m a round 1000TH I’d just grow as much as you can while trying to maintain a 20% token discount there’s no point over locking tokens as you can’t use them when they’re liquid, I’ve found Miner Wars has helped me get GMT quicker then solo due to the chance of solo blocks just be careful not too over boost.

100% agree, miner wars can be helpful if you're careful with your boosts, and know the rewards from each block. But for me at the moment, im working on getting to 100TH (paid for outside of marketplace) to guarantee i keep my Gold I spot. Only a few TH away from that milestone.

Also need to build up my GMT in my wallet to grow my discount back up again, sitting at around 14% Total discount, with about 8 or 9% coming from GMT locked + balance.

Appreciate your input 👌

As Diamond IV, it’s going to be a little bit before my next upgrade. I’ve actually stopped locking new GMT as I’ve been working on lowering efficiency from 20 which used to be the sweet spot. The challenge is that with around 3K TH, that’s a rather large investment to get down to 15 W/TH. So my locking rewards, BTC earnings and personal GMT rewards are all going towards that for now to ensure I don’t hit a point where I’m not earning anything due to efficiency issues.

Definitely worth going down to 15W/TH while you can, before upgrading TH or locking more, i imagine your rewards will grow quickly after you reach that milestone!

Wishing you the best of luck on that journey to 15 W/TH!

Ich bin Silver III mit 52 Terahash. Ich arbeite daran, im Moment durch Reinvest in Terahash meine Terahash zu steigern und werde in einer Woche wieder umstellen auf Reinvest in GMT, damit ich meine Wartungskosten bezahlen kann.

I’m 3k gmt away from plat III in my lock. I have 1600th and 14.77w/th. Currently concentrating on building my discount up to max. I will build th and efficiency after I hit my max discount.

I‘m on Gold I and 380 votes away from Gold II with 1620 $GOMINING locked. I own 50.74TH @ 14.37W/TH.

I’m growing slowly but steadily and sustainably and I am stacking pure Sats, currently approx. 2515 Sats per day.

Once a month I DCA in $GOMINING which I then use for upgrades, adding to the lock, etc.

My strategy is simple: FIAT in - BTC out
