Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that because of the economics. If money is saved by using the waste heat then the savings will be spent on more mining.
At least it is better than the heat not being used. A small plus for the environment.

I can't afford to lose what I'm invested in, I doubt anyone here can or else people would just invest $10 every month.
This is a calculated risk, I think the benefit outpaces the risks and costs of investing in bitcoin.
Calculated risks are okay. I don't think investing the proceeds from selling your house, or investing your college money in Bitcoin is a wise idea.

Bitcoin Will Be Able To Do Anything That Ethereum Ever Could
That is a good quote!!

Looking forward to participating in this. Same here! Let's hope there are some more European based companies involved as well I think next year we'll actually be able to segregate by country/continent. Will be waiting for that to happen next year.

I find that it's hard to recall the steps that lead to Bitcoin knowledge and it's easy to overlook stuff.
Oh, I recall the steps, just not sure they'll want to replicate the full bootcamp experience, vis, wrestling with a flaky GPU for a week trying to get it hashing, camping a month in the BFL trollbox, getting minorly scammed a couple of times... Hahahahaha that made me laugh. I think the full Bitcoin Bible would be pretty fuckin' thick. You already have Bitcoin museums. You will soon have an encyclopaedia on Bitcoin.

I dont get why gov would like to create own cryptocurrency. I mean if we agree cryptocurrency = decentralized currency with public ledger nobody is granted to control.
I guess governments don't agree with that definition. They just agree with the public ledger bit.

The only real risk of investing into BTC is that you might not be smart enough to secure your coin and end up losing it..
Price wise, it's obvious we're only going up. BTC is the best investment you can possibly make right now. Better than any stock I've ever heard of.
As long as you can afford to wait a few years, your investment is going to do good.

Power bills, difficulty rate, mining rigs cost etc
I mean the permissions to be able to transfer that bitcoin value into USD - Doesn't the governments have to allow that bitcoin value to be allowed to transfer into there currency? Does this mean there is significant government involvement in bitcoin since they allow it to be traded into the nations currency? I guess any asset could be transferred into USD. That doesn't require the government's permission.

Hopefully, my bitcoin holdings are sufficient for a holiday in France in the next 2 years.

Institutional investors may already be grinding it out - buying slowly from the exchanges so that price doesn't shoot up, cutting deals with the miners, etc.

Well, well. The worthless fiat currency seems to have become valuable at some time after all.

The top Fed officials are too sure of themselves and won't see the power of Bitcoin until it hits them. Obviously, the article cannot be relied on.

Bitcointalk.org has replaced all my social networks. It's a great place indeed : ) tons of info. tons of sarcasm. lots of banter. what more could we ask for? Plus you don't need to reveal your offline identity. Who needs more?

He'll be the first person to die from crypto cancer. His ashes will be kept in a sealed BFL Jalapeño miner (at least that would make a Jalapeño useful).
I guess it's innovative though. Where on the body does it get installed? In his wife's nipple. When he needs cash he can just suck it out. He may lose his wife and his money at the same time.

200BTC I would do it for less.
It should be a dutch auction. People should start quoting lower bids. 100btc when the price hits $1000 each If I put in a bid, my parents would probably pay me more to retain my name.

why in the world would anyone risk selling / buying on these markets right now. Its like robbing a stapler from a police department. Your asking for trouble
if you're buying drugs in small quantities, i'd think that the feds aren't all that interested in spending the money to lock you down.. plus it's safer than buying on the streets. it's quite risky to sell though. The problem is that they could decide to make an example out of a few people. And you could be one of those unfortunate few.

Bitcoin - Be your own bank! That tells a lot about whom you can trust for security.

With the help of this great Bitcoin community, our bitcoin will stand against all odds. F**K Blockchain, Bitcoin rules.
What do you mean by fuck blockchain? Bitcoin can't exist without the blockchain. I guess he meant other blockchains. If not he is missing the point - blockchain can't be separated from bitcoin.
