5 days 22.5 hours remaining!

I was helping the creator of ecoinpool test it with some hashing power and we found a block in the first 25k shares!

If you are going to setup a pool for yourself, talk with Graet from ozco.in about ecoinpool.

rjk, if you want to setup your own bitcoind, we'll point the hashing power there. With GPUMAX, you can probably get 25% MOAR coins.

I hope you bought your tickets..... 

Hello newbie bitcoiners,



You read that right. Amazingrando and I have teamed up to raffle off a massive 50Gh one week mining contract to the lucky winner. Each ticket is only .5 BTC each!

Imagine, turning .5 BTC into 223 BTC (or more if you run on GPUMAX), a return of at least 450 times the cost of a single ticket.

So you’re probably wondering, “how can I verify that these guys actually have the hashes to back this up”. We wondered the same thing.... so here are some links to ease your worries.

Rules of the contest:

• The odds of winning this raffle is 1 / (total # of tickets sold)
• This raffle will end on Friday, April 27, 2012 at 3pm EST.
• You may purchase as many tickets as you like.
• Whether buying a single ticket or bulk tickets, each ticket will have its own ticket number and therefore a unique hash.
• The only piece of information you need to submit is your email address. This will be hashed so it will not be given out to the public.
• The raffle will be decided by:
  
  • We will combine the SHA256 hash of each email address with the hash of your ticket number and the first block hash to be found after the raffle ends. Here is an example:
  • sha(sha(email) + sha(ticketNumber) + hashOfBlockFound)
  • The lowest hash wins!
• The mining contract will start within 48 hours of second party validation of the results.

Enjoy and good luck!

Thanks copumpkin!

6 days 9 hours remain to get your tickets. There is easily over $1k in mining profits up for grabs!

So you've decided that you can't scam people with a root kit so now you are going to try and raise funds and run?

Interesting business concepts. Seems like you are on a roll.

If I am wrong them I am sure you will verify you glbse.com account.

LOL thanks lodcrappo!

Thanks to everyone who has entered thus far! 

If you like to think about things in $$$ then here is some math for you.

~230 BTC mining contract * $5.37 current gox price ~= $1,235 

The GLBSE twitter account has the entire record.

You must risk to be rewarded! 

We are offering up part of our normal mining incomes to have some fun and make a profit. Only time will tell if this venture is fruitful.

Thanks nathanghart!

Only time will tell. Either way, it's going to be fun!

Hello fellow bitcoiners,

We’ve seen raffles here the in gambling section of the site. There have been small prizes thus far. Nothing too big, nothing too exciting. Well, amazingrando and I are here to change that.
