Thinking of buying one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-Bitcoi...item2c7135da94Is it worth it? According to a bitcoin mining calculator that would get me ฿0.45 every month. I personally would be happy about it earning ฿0.45 a month but im worried about how long it will stay at earning ฿0.45 a month. I know the BTC value rises and falls but im talking about the difficultly level? Any ideas? Thanks! it seems to have disappeared. |

stupid thread.

Can anyone shed some light on this block --->>>>>>19390 it will be fixed eventually. Nothing to fix really, just that it was relayed < a minute, no transactions, 0 kb in size. Does that normally happen or....... oh, i thought you were asking why it said "none" for a bit. as for not including any transactions, it can happen, but it doesn't usual happen on a pool. |

So - has anyone taken an old GPU rig setup and bought PCI and PCI-E USB cards? Usually, 4-5 ports each.. loaded up maybe 4-5 slots with these in a case or outside.. then fired up some BEs?
and then plug hubs into them. with daisy chaining there are a number of ways to expand your operation. the things that are important are cost per port and the power consumed by the computer doing the mining. a Raspberry Pi can run 49 BEs A regular PC? who knows. the spec says 127 per USB controller. Each PCI/PCIe card would have at least one controller. How many ports do you need? I think people like the HUB approach because it keeps everything together and makes added cooling easy to do. |

BTCguild said he was personally testing each unit before shipping them at the time yours was shipped. that is why the seal was broken. you got one that passed his testing and was still bad. you should have returned it as soon as you had a problem. as long as you didn't unsolder anything i suspect that he will send you a new one.

Looks like about 1000 units are already spoken for in the batches that are coming (backorder queue 900)  Yes, very glad I had over 1300 units ordered before the price drop. Placing another order today since I'm definitely going to need more. Have you started wishing you hadn't gotten in the resale business yet?  Things are gonna get crazy. Some people are going to be unhappy. it is inevitable. Just do what you think is right and fair and let the cards fall where they may. |

How come private messages aren't kept private? That seems disreputable to me. Cavat Emptor! |

ASICminer USB at .6 BTC has been confirmed by BTCguild.  |
|

Is it possible that your ISP is messing with peer to peer connections thinking it is like torrent?
|
|
|
|
so, for a solo miner using bitcoin-qt, that decides what goes into a block? is it configurable? |

Hello, I'm newbie here. I just tried this pool yesterday and already produced about 13-15 shares (I don't remember exactly) and then I turn off my miner and go to bed. This morning I saw my estimated reward become zero and nothing at my unconfirmed/confirmed, so what I've mined yesterday is totally useless?
Thanks.
Yes, saddly, this is not a pool for part time miners. you might want to try btcguild. |

you can buy them for less than $100 now on Amazon now. i was thinking more like 1-5 USD.
Um, from what I can see, only if you buy 30 of them...lol Or link please. Bitmit has some close to $100, but nothing that I would trust has hit that mark yet. Well ya could yesterday, there were some for $92.95 + $4.75 shipping, but they are gone now. |

I highly discourage any of you from using Slush's pool, he cheats his users a lot
snip a load of gibberish and nonsense
Here's an idea. Find out what you're talking about before posting. Yeah, what he said, your OP is stoko. |

i just noticed that it broke thru 25 TH/s
that is the highest i've ever seen the 30-minute average for slush ^_^
gg
It is cuz I added another GPU Miner... I do that and someone adds like 200 Jalapenos! I feel that way everytime i add a ASICminer stick. I was going to buy 4 ASICminer stick yesterday... but first I went to the calculator to see much my monthly BTC would increase.... then I increased the diff from 31256960 to 36256960 and noted it negated 2 ASICminer stick, so every 10 days 660mh/s gets negated... So I decided maybe I should stop chasing the diff. the Video cards I can sell at a profit, ASICminer stick will be useless soon. well to most people! people with 50+ already will love every single one tossed out heh or sold for cheap.  That's what I'm waiting for. It won't be long before you can get them for $100 or less... you can buy them for less than $100 now on Amazon now. i was thinking more like 1-5 USD. |

Rules and regulations are only existing to protect the existing state and business systems. It's made to make it harder for the mom and pop stores and small businesses to enter the market. Everybody should be aware of this, and loudly voice their opinion to Paypal and other evil companies.
Not true. In this case it is to help cut their losses while providing the customer protection they promise. I was more aiming at the larger picture. And Paypal and customer protection? It seems they screw people over far too often. But the fact they're concerned with bitcoin is good. It means that they're legitimately looking at bitcoin as a competitor/threat. First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Yes protect customers. I bought 10 ASICminers at once on ebay. I paid immediately. I eventually received a bogus shipping number. The seller didn't respond. Eventually, Paypal refunded my money. Say what you like, they did right by me. |
