Interesting.

As a father, I can't imagine forgetting that my son is in the backseat...

My mother and I are on disability, food stamps, get BOTH medicaid and medicare, get free cell phone and live in my dead grandma's house for free. We get a combined of $1440 cash a month and $300 food stamps. Yes my mom spends about $120 a month on lottery and I go to the casino with $300 every month, but I play blackjack and win more often than not. And we go out to eat twice a month for $100. We do not have new cars as we have to rent a car once or twice a month to go out and do errands, etc which costs $200 a month alone. But we don't have smartphones...no need for one since we got a free one, no $200 shoes either, heck me and my mom only have 1 pair of shoes to our name and 2 changes of clothes each. We do have cable and internet, but we don't have hot water and that is our choice. Our house is also old and needs so many repairs and updates, etc. So yes, we may drive a nice new $30,000 rental car, go to the casino, buy lottery tickets, eat out, but the rest of the 29-30 days in the month we live in hell. How would you like to only leave the house once or twice a month? You people need to mind your own business! Oh, and hate when people tell us to get a job, when we get more than we would working at walmart or mcdonalds. And we don't own a car to go to work and don't have clothes for work.

This fat fuck is the definition of a worthless leach to society. GET YOUR FAT FUCKING ASS OUTSIDE, WALK YOUR SMELLY DICK INSIDE MCDONALDS AND BEG FOR A JOB YOUR RETARDED FUCK. Do you think the majority of people start at the top? We work our asses up you worthless pig! SAVE OUR MONEY INSTEAD OF GAMBLE IT YOU FAGGOT! (I have no remorse, he uses the word "bull dyke" on his FB)

Don't do it!  That site looks like a complete scam.  Their pictures are pretty much the exact same as Butterfly Labs sans the pretty little butterfly logo.

If you want an ASIC rig, the best way would be to get one on this forum through a trusted escrow like John K.

I should have received payment for a parlay 2 days ago, but the sending account hasn't been credited yet. I thought payouts were every night...? How long does it usually take to receive payment? It was from a CampBX account.

If you PM NitrogenSports you should get a response soon.

Ryan has been quick to help me out in the past.

Apparently no information has been released about the USB yet... but I guess July 10th is the next date, so I am going to wait a week and see.

This is the link that I got from the forum that talked about it:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1hedyd/asicminer_has_new_blade_airoil_cooled_new_mini/


Thanks for the heads up, ill be watching it. Though the price for usb miners is so low right now, the news one will have to cost more. I'm interested in the performance numbers

no problemo

I'm working on a presentation for some of my local friends to do a large order of the new miners.  Unfortunately they don't have a clue what Bitcoin is or the concept of mining for it... lol


I've built a 3x 7950 rig for a friend and he can barely use email lol. I talked about it so much that he couldn't help but be interested. I've been trying to think of a proper order of how to explain everything to people who don't understand. Sometimes I get carried away with technical details and regular minds are blown

Yeah, I've been working on a website to try and explain it to newcomers, but I keep getting carried away with the details.  Before I know it I am talking about SHA256 and Scrypt like they are common-knowledge.  Recently I decided that I am going to get my wife to understand it and she can help me break it down into an easier explanation.

I'm fiending for some usb miners!

You should wait until July 10th, then...

Friedcat is making an announcement on new ASIC miners including a new USB miner... so it should be more cost efficient than what you are getting right now.

I'm planning on participating in a group buy from CanaryInTheMine (reputable group-buyer) if/when he does one.  Working on getting the BTC in the mean-time.

just an fyi

He is saying you are stupid if you give this guy more BTC.

He already scammed at least two people in the past week.

Person requesting and receiving the loan are the same person.   Wink

Oh... then it looks like I am the stupid one! Cheesy
1933  Economy / Lending / Re: [2 DAYS] Need 0.5 loan ! on: July 03, 2013, 05:12:59 PM
I will give you a chance. Pm'd you !

Don't, man. Read the damn stickies, the chance of you being scammed is over 90%.

Actually, if you look at both accounts, they were both registered within the last week. Chances are high that this will actually be successful.

Edit: HI JOEY!

What the hell are you sayin  Huh
He hasn't answer to me yet...

Wow thank you both, now it's clearer Smiley Do you trade/mine litecoins? What do you use them for?

No problemo.

I mine them... and trade/gamble with them Smiley

1935  Economy / Lending / Re: Seeking 6 BTC loan on: July 03, 2013, 04:03:55 PM
Seems legit!  I'd go with Vod.

Looks like he is more than willing to work with you on your concerns over the physical coins and possible boom of LTC.
1936  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Litecoin on: July 03, 2013, 03:59:55 PM
Main difference is that they use two different algorithms.

BTC uses SHA256 which has ASICs developed for it... this makes an everyday miner pretty much unable to mine them without an ASIC device.

LTC uses Scrypt which does not have ASICs currently, and it will probably be quite some time until there are ASICs developed for them.  This makes it where any computer with a decent AMD/ATI GPU can mine it.  The profit margins are very small for both of these unless you have cheap electricity... or a lucky person with a great ASIC cost basis.

BTC is more popular because it has been around longer, but LTC is definitely the 2nd most popular cryptocurrency.
1937  Economy / Lending / Re: Seeking 6 BTC loan on: July 03, 2013, 03:55:18 PM

It does make sense, but again I'm very adamant about buying a set of two physical ltc from smoothie. Thats a first come first serve basis. I literally check the alternate crypto board once every 20 minutes waiting for him to post the sale thread lol. Maybe that's pathetic of me

Well if you find somoene to loan you the money, you might be able to put that stipulation in there.  They could hold your LTC until the coins are ready to ship and then they could purchase the coins with your LTC and have the seller hold them as collateral until you repay the BTC... or the lender could purchase the coins and hold them as collateral.

That's all up to the lender of course, but it could happen. 
1938  Economy / Lending / Re: Seeking 6 BTC loan on: July 03, 2013, 03:50:07 PM
I'm not exaggerating.

BTC/USD -79.84 * 7 = $558.88
LTC/USD - 2.68 * 200 = $536.00

I'd actually be at a loss if you decided not to pay back.

Ahhhhhhhh.... my mistake! 

All things considered, I think LTC and BTC are both about to be on an uptrend, so the collateral is definitely reasonable.
1939  Economy / Lending / Re: Seeking 6 BTC loan on: July 03, 2013, 03:48:03 PM
Work it out IF LTC goes to $10, coin holder sells, pays off loan and returns left over.

That sounds reasonable.  Set a strike price on your LTC that would cover the BTC you owe... wham bam, done deal.
1940  Economy / Lending / Re: Seeking 6 BTC loan on: July 03, 2013, 03:46:42 PM
I'll do this 6btc loan for you repay 7btc in 3 months.  200LTC as collateral.  That's a VERY slim collateral margin for me, but since the collateral is a cryptocurrency, I am willing to take the risk.

Very slim?  I think you exaggerate.

pre BTC-E:

BTC/USD -79.84 * 6 = $479.04
LTC/USD - 2.68 * 200 = $536.00
