Title: USB miner Post by: BitcoinSupremo on March 25, 2016, 02:20:39 PM Pretty simple and maybe dumb question but what you can mine per day with a 20-50 USB miner from Ebay?
Title: Re: USB miner Post by: ranochigo on March 25, 2016, 03:01:20 PM HexFury is one of the USB ASICs with the highest GH density. It has a 11GH/s and is quite expensive. You are expected to earn around 0.01BTC per month before factoring electrical cost and difficulty increment. Did I mention it is $70 per? You are required to get a good USB hub to power all of them. Buying Bitmain S3 and better would give you a better chance at ROI.
Title: Re: USB miner Post by: BitcoinSupremo on March 25, 2016, 03:07:46 PM Its 0.00033 BTC per day, I can live with that as my electricity will be payed by others, don't care about 70 USD either. I just need it to just plug it in my pc and start mining, I don't want USB hubs or anything to power it up. If its plug and play I may go for it, if it requires adjustments then I am not going for it, but thanks for telling me which is the best USB miner.

Overall cost might be a constraint for some...Title: Re: USB miner Post by: onlinedragon on March 25, 2016, 05:41:27 PM HexFury is one of the USB ASICs with the highest GH density.

Here are the expected generations for 11gh/s 20gh/s and 50gh/s. Whoever said .01 for 11gh a month was off by about 81 years. Also remember the reward halving will occur in a couple of months so all the payouts will be cut in half then. Code: The expected generation output, at 11 ghps, given difficulty of 165,496,835,118.226348876953, Title: Re: USB miner Post by: Chronikka on March 25, 2016, 06:12:34 PM Is this the only good option available if you talk about usb miners. The Compac by GekkoScience (aka sidehack) is pretty good although at this point you can only get them from re-sellers. It will do ~8-10 gh/s on regular USB power but can be overclocked to near 20 gh/s if you have a USB hub that can supply enough power Title: Re: USB miner Post by: BitcoinSupremo on March 26, 2016, 07:31:58 AM Pretty simple and maybe dumb question but what you can mine per day with a 20-50 USB miner from Ebay?
