Title: Newbie U1 Antminer question:) Post by: chromosoma on December 28, 2013, 12:58:28 PM Hi,
I am new to btc and just want to test my luck mining BTC solo instead of playing Lottery every week:) I bough myself 3x U1 Antminer (70 Euro each) and calculated, i have much more chance for getting the whole block (25 BTC=13000 Euro) then winning the same amount of money in Lottery=) Right now i am looking for good and cheap USB hub, and here is my question: Do i need USB3.0 hub, or 2.0 is enough? (I don't know, how high is the datarate between the miner and PC.) Ps. Another question is: Why the hell people keep paying ca. 35 Euro for block erupter on ebay, if you can get 5x more Power for just 2x money?
