Title: Jally down to about .1 BTC per day now - what is yours?
Post by: nexus99 on August 06, 2013, 05:26:16 AM
My unit mining in the Eclipse pool stays steady at 7.8 GH/S. Its mining out about .1BTC per day. How does this compare with your Jally in another pool?

It means the Jally will still pay for itself in around a month.

I don't mean to be crude or smug but you *can* think about selling them before they lose too much value. You invested $ & time into them and it's ok to sell older hardware to "cut losses" when the iron is still hot in order to lock in gains in your investment.

You can sell it to me if you want before it becomes a doorstopper. I'll pay you up to $1.3k immediately PP or BTC if you want to unload it before it becomes just a coffee warmer, ya poor fellow.  ;D  :D

It will only become a doorstop when it can't mine enough BTC to cover the running cost.  At 32watts, that wont be this year.

Aw, why do you have to ruin my fun?  ;D

In all honesty, I still have a valid point about what I mentioned about cutting your losses on equipment. Say you already made 2x ROI or more, you can consider selling used equipment still in demand while they still have high resale value so you can reinvest it in mining hardware. By doing so you've locked in future returns which as we all know are uncertain but trend downwards for older hardware.

You could even just re-invest it in BTC that'll probably do better then the Jally going forward, which will continue to lose value and mining power in a world where 400GH/s are starter units!

Or it will become a doorstop Very suddenly due to hardware failure.
*rolls dice*
