As opposed to selling that electricity back to the utility company at say $0.04/kWh it may be better to drop off a "bit coin rig" at the customers house that's capable of using up the extra 2,000 kWh in the course of say a week.

2000 kWh burned in a week requires a 12kW load (10 Th/s, say), requiring a 60A/240V circuit from the Service Panel.  Few homes have such an available circuit.

Adding this continuous load to existing loads would also possibly blow the typical residential distribution transformer, which are typically designed to serve four or five typical 5kW max demand residences.

Maybe 2000 kWh burned in a month would work, power-wise.  3kW load (2.5Th/s, say), 30A/120V circuit (or 15A/240V).

A 10Th rig costs, what, $50,000?  A 2.5 Th rig costs $10,000?

You're a big fan of the taint huh?

Taint is good - it defeats the whitelisters.

In the future there will be tainting services for this purpose.

Taint all the coins!!

I used to say stuff like that a lot.

This thread has everything but a vendor.   

The  lifespan record for vendorless threads is 1988 years (and growing yearly), depending on what you take as Christ's birthyear, so this thread has a ways to go.

Hashfast's latest e-mails seem to indicate that teen 'wunderkid' Garrett's assembly line is what Hashfast is depending upon to fill the MPP and EVO orders/upgrades.

And when those deliveries fail, HF will say it's Garrett's fault.

When Chartbuddy turns up missing for 3 hours, the news can't be good.

Goat turns up missing.
Chartbuddy turns up missing.

One by one, 'til only Jorge and Fonzie are left.

Who's next?

Already deleted he didn't missed it.

That was quick. Goat has posts in other threads.  I wonder if he's doing it here or Adam's doing it.

This may have significance for price.  Proudhon would know.

I'm just guessing here.  Goat.


If it is, he missed one.

Thread said "starting shipping in 7 days" It has now been 7 days. Hope you are still on track.

We are very happy to announce that the first units have rolled off the assembly line today! The units are now on their way to the burn-in tests.

Our COO, the amazing mr. Kobi Levin has taken a few photos of the assembly line. We wanted to share our excitement with you.


The assembly process:







Congratulations to those who were quick and ordered first. We hope you enjoy the early access batch!


If that guy is trying to keep hairs out of the electronics, he's gonna need a bigger hat.

Is there a Mr. Steal, I mean Mrs. Teal?  Maybe she's the one.

He and I both use piggyback.

If I were to do this, how would I know that I'm really cloudhashing for my contracted share of the block reward, and not just buying someone else's BTC at inflated rates?

Would the blockchain transactions prove the difference?

You guys do realize that "Garrett MacDonald" is Garr on these forums, right?  The guy who scammed tons of people out of money, lied about his shill bidding of auctions, etc...  

In all the history of BTC, if not the history of mankind, or the universe, has there ever been a more authoritative source on the highlighted subjects?

This is clearly someone who knows something about which he speaks.

Now they [Hashfast] have no money left

What is this statement based on?

Some percentage of their income was BTC directly into their hands - which has quintupled, at least.
1499  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: The Habanero Project - Third Party HF Mining Board on: March 21, 2014, 02:34:20 PM
HF can't build the rigs they were paid months ago to build.

Mr. Teal can build rigs using HF chips, as can apparently others.

If HF chooses, they can pay Mr. Teal (or someone else) to build HF-chip rigs and ship them to customers who paid for HF-built rigs months ago.  

This would reduce HF"s windfall from 600% to 500%, but life - and business- are tough sometimes.

You have been begging HashFast for free chips via PM and email since our GN1 was announced.

So Icebreaker was "in" from the beginning?  (So to speak).
