Title: Turns out commuting on a bike pays better than Bitcoin mining! ;)
Post by: atariguy on June 19, 2013, 04:51:05 PM
So my rig with 2 7950s is currently bringing in about $2.63 a day...

Yesterday I started commuting with a new bike that I bought for almost the same price as my 2 GPUs. With the current price of gas, I'll save about $5 a day that I ride it to work and back.

Guess which one is most likely to pay itself off in the next few months?  8)

Although, you may get killed or seriously injured by a bus!

Them is the risks you take - and they say bitcoin is dangerous!

Good point! In my case, most of my commute is on a paved trail away from motorized vehicles. However, the portion at the end that is not reminds me that mountain biking (which I also do) is actually safer than regular road biking!  :o
