Hello everyone, first time posting but a long time lurker.  Posting now because I've been following a few of the hardware group buys and am interested in joining in on a couple of those, but I realized I couldn't post anything in those threads until I posted here in the newbie forum first.  So just want to say hello.

Hello

Maybe not posting saved you $$$  Cheesy



It definitely did.  If you're still interested in bad deals I'll rent you 1 GH/s mining for 1 month for 0.25 BTC

1142  Bitcoin / Armory / Re: Armory scanning the whole blockchain every time i start the program on: September 21, 2013, 04:52:50 PM
As an additional data point:

I had to install the newest version 0.88.1 on my Windows system since the older version ran out of RAM and crashed.

Current system:
MacBook Pro booted into Windows 7
16 GB of RAM
Armory consumes 3.8 GB of RAM!

At this point, Armory is already approaching the point at which it will exceed the memory usage of most consumer PCs, which are still being sold in the 4GB or less range.

I would advise that the memory usage must the first priority in development, or else nothing else will matter.

Yes, it's just as legal as buying a banana for $100 from a hooker and then she gives you a blowjob as a gift.

Fake, the address do not match.
You just picked 2 random transactions Smiley

Not random, I picked two of the highest in the last month.

At the rate the bitcoin blockchain grows in size, 2.2x the growth worries me a lot more than 1x growth.

It really shouldn't. Doubling the storage requirements is mathematically very little. If you can afford to store 10 GB, you can almost assuredly afford to store 20 GB. If you can afford to store 1 TB you can almost assuredly afford to store 2 TB.

Yes, while doubling RAM isn't so simple due to limited RAM slots on most personal computers, meaning you have to usually throw some sticks out to add more.  Most personal computers though have room to add an extra HDD.  And I don't think RAM prices scale linearly like HDD storage.
1149  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: All 500 GH/s Miners And Above on: September 20, 2013, 03:44:36 PM
Hi, I was wondering what ALL the 500 GH/s and above miners are. Preferably some that can be shipped out today (not cointerra's unreleased stuff or stuff with BFL's "let's ship this 14 months after the order" policy). ASICs that can be shipped within 1 month of the order that mine above 500 GH/s.

Thanks in advance.

The 500Gh/s being. I seldom think they will be successful as There is no workable prototype for 28nm manufacturing for the time being. There are 10 more days to go to determine if it is a lie, this is the ORSoc case even ORSoc has good relationship between TSMC and/or other related companies.

P.S Only GPUs are released in 28nm.  In real, Bet on ASICMiner first as ASICMiner is completely ready, stock available in Canada and the forum talk although with bad power-to-hash ratio (Need to pay BTC before they work, I have asked one of the key persons, If ordering the minimal amount, 6.1BTC in total, which represents at least USD 610.)

 

CPUs are 28 and 22nm.

You can hash anything, a photo is just another stream of bits.  It would be like keeping your private key in an unencrypted ascii file, it's just more obscured.

Yifu said he wouldn't do pre-orders any more, so theoretically escrow won't be necessary.
1152  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Bitcoin Wallet generation by hand on: September 19, 2013, 11:45:26 PM
Is there some kind of "hash" that can be easily "calculated" from an human (even if takes some hours...) but not from computer?

Do you mean a hash that a computer can't perform or one that it would take longer than a human?  It would probably have to involve some sort of riddle.  Though the computer in the van in midnight madness could do it quickly...

Is this a joke, or did you actually pay back?  I see the 600 BTC going somewhere, and another TX of 0.14 BTC... lol.

Yes it must be true, I posted the txid and everything.

I'd like to request 472.8 BTC for poker.  I will surely make it back plus more.

Edit:  loaned and repaid

I hope I picked them in the correct order.

I just want to hear the confirmation out of everyones mouth buying bbqcoin with bitcoin.
Given the market cap of 88 000 000 bbqcoin (read a 88 million), and that you buy bbqcoin at almost 10000BBQ/1BTC, you estimate
 the fair market cap of BBQcoin to be 100 million bitcoin or around 1.3 jillion dollar.

Disclosure: I have no bbqcoin

Try localbitcoins for buying.  Don't buy any miners.
1159  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I'm thrilled! on: September 19, 2013, 04:20:48 PM
Welcome, just don't buy any mining hardware.  Buy BTC only.

Josh is such a dork. If he's going to backpedal his predictions, he should at least backpedal far enough so he's got something he's guaranteed to hit. It's almost as if they're deliberately choosing to be failures.

You're assuming he cares that what he says is true.
