Asking about bitcoin as a whole... is a large topic. If you pick a topic within it you will get better results on help.
As far a making a "all in one" website for it. It will be very hard.

As for 24/7 yap is certified to do so. Also guys like Hitachi said build them OEM brand cabinet.
For you cold place are luck. I'm in Thailand where the season is only consider is hot and hotter and hottest.
It is very cool no one can deny it. I love the quality. But in today's world you might be better off paying for hosting somewhere that is not " only consider is hot and hotter and hottest". It takes a LOT of fees to pay off this i'm guessing. Is your electricity really cheap? |

Geee.... my C1s left the factory on October 27, came to Switzerland, back to China, now back in Germany - hopefully, I'll get them in three days...
With difficulty jumps 10%. ..... How do you feel flushing down your money? Ask us in 4-6 months... as of now i expected to see some time another jump. We had 2 really low nice ones. Hope we go back next difficulty to lower, but in mining nothing is guarented. Its winter, so low price to keep cool for some miners. Have decent priced electricity, do weekly ROI and enjoy. Really though all this should be in speculation and not clutter up this thread. |

Looks accurate for desktop and laptop hashrates, however with hashrates like that it isn't worth running. You won't ever make anything with those kinds of speeds mining Bitcoin.
I don't think this is a traditional computer mining, AFAIK there is not any desktop that can mine in excess of 100 MH/s, I don't think that even a GPU rig could mine at these speeds. I would speculate the OP is using an ASIC from the very early days of ASICs Many GPU's are able to hash in excess of 100MH/s. For example a 7850 is able to hash anywhere from 300-400MH/s, so 100MH/s is quite doable. Wow that is a lot more then my crappy macbook air can do. I assume that in order to reach these speeds you would need to not be using your GPU for video, correct (you would need a separate video card to connect your monitor to) I believe I achieved about 350MH/s on my 7850 while it was the main GPU outputting video and I had it over 400 with a major OC, but that probably wouldn't have been a good idea to run 24/7. Why were people not mining on scrypt based multipools with their GPUs more if their GPUs are able to achieve such high amounts of hashrate? You could easily stack them to get well over 1 GH/s which would have earned you ridiculous amounts of money even early this year. i agree, thats really big hashrate if are from gpu's Depends on GPU. Before I got out of GPU's the 7970's Easily hit 600 and some 700 is really great config, and card type. Not all were the same quality. Also you pushed them pretty hard to do it. |

When the difficulty hits 50B at current tech & current avg watts, big players will start thinking about calling a world-wide truce. Hashrate will top out somewhere after 400PH and well before 700PH unless someone invents a quantum miner.....
Next gen ASIC is claimed to be 0.2w/GHs (SP). 700PH is entirely possible. To to mention i know some mega miners are expanding with 3 cents per KWh contract. They will keep expanding to get a bigger pie. Only idiots like OP keep using "bitcoin calculator" with wrong variable. yeah thats right and when btc drops to 200 usd they go fully red and belly up. I never said they won't expand I just say they will expand very slowly. The 10 % you see is the exception under 5 or 6 will be more common. Sadly i think home miners will hurt worse then most big mining operations. I have winter that will help. Decent priced electric, with quite a bit open to expand still. I agree it was unusual, but the previous 2 were very low. I think we will find a common ground between theGue 2's and 10's. What that is depends on how many operation go online. Guess we will find out in a week or so and have a good idea. |

it's a fucking race to 2016! some of them are racing to 2020! what if they calculate theyr profits with 13%increase in difficulty, and they can go all the way to 2020? Estimated Next Difficulty: 39,698,674,929 (+10.32%)  Ouch this one is going to hurt. |

Winter weather is started for the lucky ones. Can use cool/cold outside air. It's much cheaper to use ambient cold temperature then running a AC.
I really like the product, I just will never be able to justify it personally.

USB miner? Cmon, its not worth it even with free electricity..
Its for fun.. Why does everyone think of $$$.. Maybe because you asked in your thread title if it was "Worth it?" If you ask me, I think that building a 2011-style GPU rig is more fun. Or how about leasing a 42U cabinet in a datacenter and filling it up with top of the line 12-core per socket Xeon servers to build a CPU farm? If you got tired of mining you could always repurpose it to find Mersenne prime numbers. GPU Rigs are adaptable and able to mine new alt coins (sure pump and dumps but whatever). GPU sadly is dead for most. Electricity price costs more then they make for most. And that does not even factor in the cost of the GPUs |

I would speculate the OP is using an ASIC from the very early days of ASICs reports speeds of ~700 MH/s for a number of cards listed, i.e. a single 5970 or 6990. So, why not? I would agree 700 is very doable for some cards. I was getting it on some a while back when i still did GPU's. Even at 700 it will use more electricity then it produces these days. |

Checking for malware. will post results in a second.
!!EDIT!!
Not infected but the macro contains a callback to a adfly and a referal link to zeusmining meaning that someone is making money from it.
If you do run this just be careful. Don't use it on a computer that you log into, or have access to wallets. |

Sadly CPU mining just does not make sense at this point. If each has a good GPU if truly no electricity... you will make a little... but doubtfful you even make back what cards cost.

Looks like a great video, it is definitely long. Might think of having a youtube version or another site. I kept getting buffering with it and I'm on a good connection.

The only part I ever had trouble with these is the fuse, I burnt it out before. I don't that is your problem here but you might look at the fuse to be sure.
I had a a few of these long ago and 2 had fuse problems, I had to pug a bigger one in.

The one with the higher hash rate will obviously be better. 1Gh/s = 1000 Mh/s.
What the heck? No, it's not "obviously" better. Don't give people poor advice if you're not sure what you're talking about. Either way you loose money. I might add if you really want to use one of these for proof of concept (losing money) go with BE at least you loose less. Also check ebay chances are you can get 2 cheaper. Again you will lose money on stick usb's sadly. But it is a good way if you want to try mining just for the sake of mining. |

this is my first homepage www.lyngbye-el.dkBut if you want to mine then its possible join the cointellect this is my stats Date Mining earnings Nov 1, 2014 € 0.1532 Oct 31, 2014 € 0.4160 Oct 30, 2014 € 0.2755 Oct 29, 2014 € 0.4652 Oct 28, 2014 € 0.3020 Oct 27, 2014 € 0.2230 Total € 1.8349 I am minning whit a laptop when i am in school and transfer the doge to cex.io to by hash power hope some can use it best regards from sliwadk What is this? I don't understand it... What's it all about? that is a small minning program when you join http://cointellect.com/?code=5a3b985e where you use your own computer to mine dogecoins they pay out in dogecoin or to paypal daily thats a way to earn coins whit your computer Make sure you run ROI math... which is easy here. If you pay electricty for a computer to run for around 1 month and get 2 euros.... chances are you used a lot more euros in electricity cost. |

New cloudmining offering AMHash has disclosed their mining addresses: 5.There are 3 payment addresses of our hashrate:
1HtUGfbDcMzTeHWx2Dbgnhc6kYnj1Hp24i
1ERszMSERwHNR9Xty73KZXpsg1jjBXWcHh
1K7AuMJwVfZg3UVjinnjT2HzG4pJvACat6
Just like pictures can be faked, mining addresses can be rented for premium price. I remember people purchasing freshly mined bitcoins on this forum only. Then I did not understand the reason, but now I do. Unless the miner is at your location, everyone is same. There is NO DIFFERENCE between PB Mining and Cloudhashing whatsoever. It's really not that simple. To fake a picture all you need is a miner and a bit of photoshop wizardry. To fake hashrate you need to find a company with several PH/s that is willing to support a ponzi scheme. Maintaining the illusion of a constant hashrate when you're buying newly mined coins daily is much easier said than done. The only company I know that is selling freshly minted coins in mass is Bitfury, but they have integrity and want to see bitcoin succeed instead of plagued with scams. If you were going to go through all the trouble of paying a premium for freshly mined coins every day for months on end, you might as well just buy the hashingpower from Bitfury/whatever company because it would be cheaper, less hassle, and less risk to actually mine the coins. Freshly mined coins are not really ideal for cloudmining ponzi schemes, but they are great for money laundering. Besides, PBmining almost never pays out "mining earnings" that originate from recently mined coins so it appears it's not even necessary to pay a premium for newly mined coins. I agree. Although I still like to see a picture photoshop or not, it makes me feel safer. I stick more to hardware the clouds. So many companies have went down scam lane with just renderings. At least with a good quality photo it adds one more hurdle. Miningrigrentals has around 2000 T worth of SHA power, Leasesrig maybe 50-100 TH, betarigs 400 TH. So it would be VERY time and money consuming but 2600 or so T could be gotten if you corner the market. I agree its not very likely though. |

So I'm pretty new to BTC and i've been using faucets for satoshi for nearly 1 week. i've only gotten about 50 US cents and I would like something about $50 dollars. Is their any site online where i can mine without downloads? I've tried bitcoin plus but I earn much more from faucets. I know i can't make the amount i want from faucets so is their any alternative? Please help.
Edit: Service and goods section? Signature Campaign?
Faucets are honestly a waste of time. You could earn more recycling cans, or looking for loose changes then a faucet will ever bring sadly. You need to look into buying, mining (do roi), selling goods and services. Once you have been around a while you can do a signature campaign. I personally liked and went with silvercoin. There are few different ones. |

I appreciate your help Dogie. You are genuinely trying to help But 1. Bitmain should not be sending us broken miners. 2. If indeed something went wrong, Bitmain must acknowledge their mistake and do the needful. They didnot even post a firmware on their website or methods that you describe on their website to fix the problem. 3, They indeed finally post a manual for C1 which does not even show a full picture of how it would look like when operational with cooling kit, whereas they should provide instructions to the last detail to do so. 4, If this is not disappointing enough then let me explain more. I have to run the miner at 212.5 (853 ghs) to keep the miner little quiet. Else it makes as much sound as S3, despite the cooling kit fully operational. 5. The website stops working intermittently or when the temperature rises. 6. I made it work by changing the conf file using ssh and reducing frequency. 7. Website home page still doesn't work, one has to switch to confirguration page to see access the site http://192.168.1.99/cgi-bin/minerConfiguration.cgiWell I am pretty disappointed by this miner so far. Wish I had just bought a few more S3's instead, so far the best of all or I should have had waited for second batch to not be the scapegoat in loosing my nights trying to make a DOA machine work. Good luck newbies, I would suggest wait for the second batch which will have all issues ironed out I had the problem with SD card so I can understand your frustration. I was one to upload image from my second C1 miner in case others needed it hoping to make it easier on you. Mine both are working great and quiet. I also am lucky that it's winter weather outside on temperature. I am able to get over 1T on each and all the temps in the 30's. One thing about your speed they were shipped with default of 250 frequency. If you run at 212.5 you will not hit 1T. You will have lower electricity, and quieter, but effects speed greatly. |

well, I finally received my antminer C1. It is all set with cooling kit and operational. But it does not work. The web interface does not show up.
If I manually set up a pool in conf file using ssh. It still keeps working for some unknown pool because the PSU is consuming 1000+watts.
Anyone has received it and has it working yet?
Reflash SD with the one in my 2nd post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=841344.msg9389747#msg9389747If anyone needs to reflash if using windows, Win32DiskImager is what copied the SD card and is also able to write to SD. My post install advice: The starting IP should be 192.168.1.99 Get a nice screw driver you will be opening and closing case (10 screws per miner) to plug in pump, etc. Have a little bowl or something for all the screws it's easy to drop the small screws Test it with top of case off, to make sure it's working. If you have problems taking case on/off adds a lot of extra time. |

Hello, I am pretty new to the world of bitcoin and I understand how it works and how just using my regular old gaming PC isn't going to get me anywhere in mining. But I came here to ask what are some great ways to get started mining bitcoins seriously? Electricity bill isn't a problem for me. I heard that there are these computers you can buy called miners and was also wondering if they are any good and if they are what is a good one to get? Thanks!
When you say electricity bill isn't a problem, your landlord pay for you? I had "student" apartment before where electricity could only be 25 dollars extra. He could have something like that. Look into asics and do ROI math. If you have cheap electricity, space, you might be lucky where you can run hardware at home. If not there is hosting/cloud. Always do research beforehand. |
