Title: Re: Bitcoin Mine Post by: kolloh on February 06, 2015, 11:06:36 PM This video was actually really well done. It was pretty cool to see the inside of a large bitcoin mining facility like this.
Those extractor fans look pretty powerful lol, wouldn't want to get too close to them. The employees get to play PC games while monitoring the miners too. Nice!

Thats 4000$ a day. Not that bad. But they used to earn 100 BTC at >600$ , so around 60,000$ a day. Must have become millionaires.

Does that mean he's not dumping it on the market but holding? I doubt it.
He said something about being 50/50 in bitcoin and fiat. When other Chinese dumpers start doing their thing he's probably wetting the bed ;D Title: Re: Bitcoin Mine Post by: cheekychap on February 07, 2015, 08:02:05 AM At 3:33 he says that bitcoin is the future and he believes in it.

When other Chinese dumpers start doing their thing he's probably wetting the bed ;D Since they have some cost of running this they need to pay in fiat for electricity etc. Then I expect even more then 50/50.
