Well said. Everyone gets into mining for different reasons and not all of them are looking for ROI but instead things like just to get BTC and to have a fun hobby. That is why i gave him the advice I did. I am actually loving mining even though I only have 100 gh/s. It is fun to setup and tweak. My Gen 1 Avlon I updated the firmware last night and got some help and boom it is now at 83 gh/s from a max of 73 gh/s, running cool and quiet. It was fun. I love reviewing new products as well and have published some reviews. It's so much fun and the community is great. I hope he gets into mining and enjoys it as much as I do. What kind of Rig would you need to start mining? Is it worth it?
Don't listen to people to tell you what you 'should have done' by looking for info elsewhere your new to the game and thats okay, you asking in the right place anyway thats for sure. These people, lets call them the "noob tribe" as it seems to be a favourite word of theirs, need to help beginners not put them off. I know i have just signed up to Bitcointalk but have been involved in cryptos for some time so feel free to PM me if you need any help.

It is just the market going up and down for all coins right now. Also news has been a bit slow on the MMC front lately but that is changing now. We just got listed on the WorldCoinIndex as well. Overall I think this year is going to be a great year for MMC to see steady growth and adoption as well as helping more people. What the hell is causing the steep decline in the price?

If you are looking to do so as a hobby to start out the Ant miner U1 USB sticks are a good way to go to get familiar with mining. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=496007.0They are inexpensive and there are several group buys setup depending on where you live. If you want something more powerful the Ant Miner S1 is a 180 gh/s to 200 gh/s unit that is affordable at $750+ depending on the group buy or seller. The main thing you want to do is buy something that is shipping as pre-orders you don't mine until they can deliver and during that time they have your money. If you can afford it this would be a nice miner to have. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=500969.0Good luck and happy mining. It is fun.

It's been nuts lately. On I knew was a risk and a couple of us tried anyways. The other was a trusted seller on here. .09 gone to that one and .13 or so gone total. I could have used that towards a miner I am .15 short to buy. I would have been happy with their products. Now I see a lost opportunity and lose a bit more faith in people. Last night you helped rebuild that faith though. Thanks again. i know i have been scammed a few times my self

Good to know. I hope it gets worked out. MultiMiner runs on BFGMiner and I use it to control most of my gear. Thanks Your welcome I love innovation and new gear. So these work fine with BFGMiner as well? I love the look of them and the power consumption is looking good as well.
I have tested it on my Macbook running OSX with Virtual Box running Ubuntu, using bfgminer 3.10.0. I get a lot of unknown job id errors and the hashrate is about 30% of capacity. So for now cgminer only. Thanks for the compliments

I used to play it a bit about over 10 years ago when it was just starting out. I loved the graphics back then and now seeing this thread I went back and checked it out. It looks great still. I might have to play again. Thanks for the heads up again.

Thanks so much for the help. I sent you a tip. I do not have much but I appreciate your help immensely. I am so happy right now. The whole unit is running so much better. I cannot get it to connect at all. I have had mine running on the one i built for the 110nm chip for a few days I did notice that running at Freq of 375 I got more HW errors but dropping down to 35 DRASTICALLY loweredmy error rate and with the new firmware i got a speed boost when running on CEX
If you want i will post the settings i run
If you want help i can help you do you have Teamviewer?

How has it been running for you? I am ready to try it but I wanted to see how it was doing for others for a bit first. Have you seen any improvements and such? What are the new features?

How does it work? Does it give any improvements in performance and stability??

It was $75 for one miner shipped. I got scammed pretty badly on here last week so I could not do all 3. You do have a great better offer now though that I see. My offer still stands for one at $75 BTC shipped. Alright, standing offer is .31. In order to make sure this does not turn into a long-winded auction, the last offer must be received by noon CST tomorrow.
Walking Glitch, I can wait a few days, but please let me know if this becomes unfeasible so I can contact the next highest bidder a.s.a.p.
Sorry! I missed that! You meant $75 in BTC shipped per each Jalapeno for a total of $225 in BTC? If that is correct then you are the top bidder. That is about .34 BTC at current rates (660$).

Same here I really want to get 5 or 6 more next batch. I could only get one last batch and only had enough for two this batch but I was too late to order. Been told about 2.5 to 3 weeks, early in queue for 2 batches of the new units.
Great, gives me time to accumulate some BTC for a bigger purchase

The $75 was from me. They are fun little units for sure. These are in hand are are working. We can use escrow through kluge if required, with you paying his fee.
I could sell these on ebay but I dont want to pricegouge someone new to the community so I figured I would try to sell them here. I'm not sure what the market is for these, but I saw a thread for a Jalapeno from a week ago where there was interest at $75. I'm open to offers, but please keep them in the thread for transparency.
Cheers.

Amazon is not unless you have credits. Digital Ocean seems to be but I have not tried it. I don't have any credits to try with. I haven't messed with Memorycoin since the first couple of days it was active (got like 1000 or so and stopped)... Since it's well established now, I'd be surprised if Amazon EC2 is still profitable... Digital Ocean could be, but only because of the excessive amt of free credits they like to throw around That is cool. I know over on the MemoryCoin forum they have a setup for running it from Amazon as well as Digital Ocean. https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?board=35.0I would use all of these servers for MemoryCoin. Use the Yam miner software. That would really get the most out of them.
yeah, I had around 50 servers running yam on protoshares until the feb 28 midnight thing. well, they're still doing protoshares, but that's just 'cause i'm lazy. memorycoins would be better.. oh.. i started running bitcoind again on 3 of them just for kicks. i wish blockchain would connect to them more often ed: oh, for a while there protoshares were even good to use with those Amazon EC2 7c 8 core instances
