Title: Will use USB erupter will ever get the investment back Post by: growthcoin on August 02, 2013, 08:21:50 PM Many people are using USB erupters, but with the current BTC diff, will people ever get back their investment in USB erupter? My calculation seems we almost can never get it back... anyone has some insights please post.

Pretty much what he said. As of right now, it would be quite hard.Best regards Nerius Title: Re: Will use USB erupter will ever get the investment back Post by: Nerius on August 02, 2013, 09:19:57 PM For current BTC/USD exchange rate- no, but if we can assume that BTC will rise in the future and you will hold some of mined bitcoins as long time investment, then, I think, yes. Best regards Nerius But then, it would still have been better to buy BTC with the money ;) Maybe you are right, but no fun then ;) Also, they can be used to mine some alternative, more profitable at current moment crypto-coins, but you should watch "market pulse".
