Hello newbie bitcoiners,

Off the back of the successful raffle of a 50Gh 1 week mining contract, I am proud to offer a new raffle to all of my fellow mining enthusiasts!




You read that right. I am ready to raffle one of my BFL singles away. Each ticket is only .25 BTC each!

Imagine, turning .25 BTC into a Butterfly Labs Bitforce single, a return of at least 480 times the cost of a single ticket.

So you’re probably wondering, “how can I verify that gigavps has a single to raffle off?”

My fifteen singles hashing away -> http://bit.ly/Ix3ktV
Gigavps’ farm monitoring page (all the singles are on rig 100) -> http://bit.ly/IxUZns



Rules of the contest:

• The odds of winning this raffle is 1 / (total # of tickets sold)
• This raffle will end on Friday, May 4, 2012 at 5pm EST.
• You may purchase as many tickets as you like.
• Whether buying a single ticket or bulk tickets, each ticket will have its own ticket number and therefore a unique hash.
• The only piece of information you need to submit is your email address. This will be hashed so it will not be given out to the public.
• The raffle will be decided by:
  
  • We will combine the SHA256 hash of each email address with the hash of your ticket number and the first block hash to be found after the raffle ends. Here is an example:
  • sha(sha(email) + sha(ticketNumber) + hashOfBlockFound)
  • The lowest hash wins!
• Once the results of the raffle have been verified, the single will be shipped to the new owner within 48 hours.

Enjoy and good luck!

Best regards,
gigavps

Just bought a ticket.
 
hopefully I win, the single will do WAY better than my single 5770 that I am mining with currently.

Thanks lunchb0x!

This would be a Godsend if I actually won. 

Good luck pctech4747!

Remember, this is the last raffle, so if you haven't purchased a ticket yet, you better get on it.

Wow I could use this to replace my MSI Radeon HD 4350 i have been mining with

733 Tickets sold. Good luck to everyone who has purchased a ticket!

I'm in for a ticket.  Fun times!

Good luck! ~48 hours left to go.

~40 hours left and 858 tickets sold. Who's going to win this thing??

Hell if i had the BTC to buy some tickets I would, Considering i am currently Mining with a MSI Radeon HD 4350 video Card and that thing is only getting 10.1MH/sec rate ( which sucks monkey balls )

I bought 2 tickets.

I also participated in your 50GHash / week contest.

I'm just always way too unlucky.

Btw hi to everyone, I've been stalking this forum for quite some time, but this is my first official post.

914 tickets sold so far. Are you ready for your mining farm to be 830Mh/s faster?

~24 hours to go before one of my BFL singles has a new home.

1,044 tickets have been sold. Are you going to be the big winner?

I got 8 tickets ;D

If I win I'll save you the shipping & pick it in person,kinda want to see how a pro mines too 8)

I tried it.

Good luck to everyone who has entered. With around 10 hours remaining 1,118 tickets have been sold.

5pm is just around the corner. If you haven't purchased a ticket yet, you better hurry up!

Just about 4 hours left.

An astonishing 1,275 tickets have been sold so far. Good luck to everyone who has entered, we'll know a winner very soon!

I spent all of my BTC between 2 tickets for this Raffle and a ticket in the June Bitlotto :/

The 4850 only makes about ~1 BTC per month, so 0.75 BTC gone is almost a whole month's "work" :D

Well, if you win you'll make a fair bit more than 1 BTC/month  8)

Agreed, closer to 17 by my calculations :D

Please see this thread for the results -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=78304.0
