Title: n00b here, saying hi and a fun idea Post by: wangmauler on October 28, 2013, 04:04:25 AM Oh hey d00dz. I'm new to this site and basically the whole bitcoin thing. Just wanted to say hello, but also that I have been doing a lot of research, and was thinking of trying something similar to this article:
http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/ (http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/) It's basically a raspberry pi with some extra USB ports, but instead of using the older style block erupter asic miners, I would attempt to setup the programming to use these newer ones: http://www.asic-technologies.com/blue-fury-usb-miners/ (http://www.asic-technologies.com/blue-fury-usb-miners/) if it works how I think it will work, it would be extremely efficient on electricity, and a hell of a lot of fun. I'm not into the mining for money, I just want to mine! lol. Wish I had a few BTC to get started however - with my Nvidia GTX 560, I've made a whopping 0.00022763btc. For fun, I was grabbing some LTC on a spare PC with a gtx 260 for a nice high of 0.00167066ltc. I wish I could make btc to get equipment to get more btc to get more btc mining equipment to mine more and more btc to get more btc mining equipment. lol.

I figure there is so much money pouring into pushing mining to the next level that it would be impossible to keep up. Good luck, though.
