Title: [WTB] 2GH mining power
Post by: JarvisTechnology on December 12, 2013, 06:25:46 AM

 I would like to buy 2gh mining power ( I wouldnt mind if it would take small area wouldnt prefer a big computer with gpu power,  small asic miner usb would be much better) . I am not entirely sure how much it would cost but looking at some examples of other prices I am guessing something along the lines of 200$.

Isn't posting referral links banned?

Buy mining hardware, don't buy into this centralized cloud pool mining thing.

If it is, please let me know and I will remove it.  I edited my post to reference that it was a referral link.

I don't know for sure, but I do know I've seen plenty of (mod edit -referral link removed) quotes across the forum, usually in the newbie section.

At the very least, don't be so sneaky about it. You are doing this guy a favor mentioning that service he probably didn't know about, so why not ask for one in return? Not like it costs him anything.

Buying and selling is the biggest draw of CEX.io, however you DO get instant mining power at the GHS value you decide to buy.

I hope you do realize, however, that CEX's Ghash cost is about 4-5 times what you'd pay if you got your own hardware. Not to mention, with 2Ghash, you'll only be making about $1 a day for the current difficulty. With CEX it would take you over two years to get your initial investment back what with the difficulty changes between now and then. And that's being generous.

 All I wanted was 5 usb miners and a 5 usb port and MAAAYBEE a rasberry pi , so that I could put them in a box burry it in a desert and never think of them ever again and in 5 years I would go 'wooow I had all these and suddenly I am rich' , I know it sounds weird but that happened to many bitcoiners :D That kinda happened to me as well but in the reverse order , I spent a lot of coins on useless stuff back in the day than when I learnt these things costs 1000$ now I went 'omg I spent 6000$ on couple of promotional papers.

 All kidding aside , where can I get 5 usb miners , a usb port for all 5 of them it would be a great + if I could get a rasberry pi , but I think that goes above my pay , I want a place that I can trust my eyes closed and it won't be too expensive. Bare needs are the usb miners, the others could wait .


 TL;DR : Cheapest and most trusthworty place to buy usb miners.

336 mhash USB miners are no longer made. You can only buy them used from other people. Check ebay.

Or buy a bitfury usb

It doesn't work like that. Increasing difficulty produces asymptotic returns. If you wanted to produce this result, you could just perform an iterative calculation on return based on reasonable difficulty assumptions, buy that amount of coins (hint: for the amount of hashpower you want it's going to be significantly less than 0.5 BTC ever until the heat death of the universe), and ignore them for an equal amount of time.
