Currently its split up on 2 Pools But ballpark its about .5 BTC a day. Overseas shipping is hard to ship the whole package we would have to do freight to keep the cost down if you want to investigate the cost from a commercial location in NY PM me and we can talk.

Revised Inventory For Sale
Qty   Miner                   Model
6      Antminer                 S2      
8      Antminer                 S3
0      Antminer                 S4
4      KnC                 Neptune
2      Antminer                 C1
2      Spondoolies         SP20

Total About 28.6 TH (Left) At Current Difficult about 8.72 BTC Per month Generated Lot Price 45 BTC Shipped Domestically via Freight on me
Any other Custom Options PM me

I don't want to bash on you, but I see a more reasonable price at 30BTC. You might interest more people.

I only say this because call it 23 for equipment, 3 for shipping, and 4 for covering the "lowball pricing".

Not many people buy equipment that won't roi in 3 months with free electricity.

rrrr,,, more expensive shipping costs than price of the coin  Undecided probably not when buying lots and sell it back in my country
Shipping is indeed crazy but it's worth it imo, as I need to have one. Grin
It Seems like a group buy is in order.

April, 17th, 6:30pm...

Sorry forgot that just woke up :p. No minimum starting bid winner takes it. Happy bidding.


You are correct.

Do some mining, start with faucet and do some gambling Smiley

im not sure best way to earn bitcoins start with faucets or gambling
because faucets very low to get btc everyday
i think best way to earn bitcoins find giveaway or trading.
Faucets are low. I think freebit is the best because you have a chance of roughly $200 worth of bitcoin.

Do you mean freebitcoi.in? Well you can actually make a decent amount of BTC in there if you have a solid referral under you. Also, there is a choice on whether you'll play a game to multiply your bitcoins, and I suggest that users shouldn't try it. If you already have the BTC, try to accumulate first before doing such things.

Yea. The top referrer makes like 0.01-0.1 per day I have seen.

How long can be operated without stopping?
how much rate bitcoin gained/day?
im looking for new miner in my home

use these tools to calculate

Halving is not the most interesting problem in bitcoin world.
I would say that the biggest problem is that everyone seems to gang up on bitcoin.
Everybody wants to have the blockchain, but not bitcoin, whatever it is-most here know that it is sheer nonsense, but this ridiculous line of reasoning is making rounds.
Foundation is messed up, etc. etc.

Bitcoin has never been in bear market this long.
This is how Wall street treats the competitor-gold was in a bear market for 19 years (1980-1999).
On a linear scale chart, bitcoin price is moving toward zero in mid 2016. I am not suggesting that it will reach zero, but it might.
It is positively depressing. I stopped buying bitcoin because every buy bites me, so just mine a bit right now.
If it fails, then it fails, although it would be very unfortunate as I expected much more from it.

All the altcoins try to mimic Bitcoin in essence. It hurts to see exact copies of the code be released under a different name and people go for it.

But Bitcoin is either slowing down, or just warming up to bat.
1935  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: mining apocalypse (naive question) on: April 16, 2015, 04:25:53 AM
The hope is the miners fee will provide enough incentive for people to run miners once they have all been mined.     Will this be enough? No one can tell till many years pass.

The transaction fees hopefully will grow as more and more transactions take place over the network. Right now Bitcoin is still a social experiment, but is being recognized as a currency. There are die-hard believers that think Bitcoin will be our Visa or Western Union of the world. Which is where the transaction fees will become money for miners.


Then there are the skeptics that believe Bitcoin is a major ponzi, scam and worthless.
1936  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: mining apocalypse (naive question) on: April 15, 2015, 11:14:14 PM
In the past there was a 51% attack that could have happened but didn't.

One of the pools, Eligius or someone, had over 50% of the mining power. Users chose to switch pools rather than have the possibility of the attack to occur.

Looking at the exchange rates now, one can say that Bitcoin is in the bucket. But that doesn't take into account many factors that could playout in the future with halvings.

Some people believe that the halving will raise Bitcoin price to a point where bitcoins are double the value to compensate for the halving payouts.

Another point is why take 51% of the hashpower and electricity to destroy the currency(unless you are a government organization). Then you would have the electricity bill and worthless bitcoins.

But most of this is speculation.
1937  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Where is the Blockchain stored on my computer? on: April 15, 2015, 04:49:48 PM
I was wondering where the blockchain was stored on a normal windows computer. I believe it is in the temp folder as it isn't in the bitcoin-qt folders.

I only question this as I would like to move all this data from two different drives to one drive set just for bitcoin.
I have the blockchain on one drive, and the wallet itself on another drive.

I'm just wondering because I am expecting a larger ledger in the next couple of years (maybe even months).
1938  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: 67 Weeks Until... on: April 14, 2015, 10:48:50 PM
We are talking about years from now, so I didn't mean to imply that it would have any effect on the price now if I did. Who would have thought there would be asics at all back in the CPU/GPU mining days. We could either get far more efficent/powerful Asics, or we could find a technology that surpasses Asics.


As far as mining for the individual goes, it has been "unwise" for idividuals to mine since 2012, but people still do it. There was a point in the summer of 2012 where I was GPU mining around 1 BTC per day with a AMD 6950 and I was losing money. As luck would have it, the 6950 was discontinued shortly after I purchased it, and it was found out that they were incredibly good for Scrypt mining, so I ended up selling the GPU used for more than I bought it for. Mining is always a bad idea in the present, but sometimes it pays off in the future.

Interesting history. I thought more short term... whoops Cheesy

In the future we might have sha-256 quantum processing. I believe it will be more power before more efficiency, until the time comes when it is worthwhile to actually produce such ASICs or whatever the next big thing will be.

It will always be cheap/free electricity that wins in the end for mining tho.
1939  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: 67 Weeks Until... on: April 14, 2015, 08:39:01 PM
Based on what happened when the block halving from 50 to 25 happened, I'd say the price will increase months before the halving, so there wont be any jump in price when it happens. As far as mining is concerned, look at the last two years and the Asics that have been produced, I dont think moore's law is accurate in this case, as if you compare a BFL Single 60GHash that used 850ish watts to a 1 THash miner with the same energy draw, you will see that doubling is probably a gross underestimate of the progress that will be made in two years.

All of that said, my only point to be made, is based on history, I've noticed that no one has had any sort of success using standard models to predict the different aspects of Bitcoin. The best we can do is wait two years and see how it do.

Price hasn't increased much in the last couple months.

And as far as the public knows nobody has a 20nm or smaller chip. The KnC solar chip was supposed but the public hasn't heard anything yet on that topic.

Moores Law might not apply until these chips are released as Bitmain is trying to play with BM1384s to achieve maximum efficiency until such a time exists where they want to put out more hardware (maybe summer will have some new spondoolies/bitmain/KnC (non fire starting miners)/ or any other company that may come out. Hopefully companies that actually produce hardware will have some fun toys for the public by the end of summer so we have new heaters for winter.
1940  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: 67 Weeks Until... on: April 14, 2015, 08:14:08 PM
I would assume everyone panics and either do large buying or selling.

Large buying could lead to large selling once the halving occurs, as it might be a peak for fiat to BTC.

Large selling could lead to a huge buyers market once the market is saturated with bitcoins for fiat.

As in security, I believe halving will be a zero day. We can prepare so much, but when it happens, it happens and all the fun will come out.


Block Halving = Price Jump in BTC:
This is a possibility. However; I would argue it with one simple question...  Why?  There are already more than enough BTC out there for the current user-base. There are hoards of BTC in cold storage - coins that haven't moved out of wallets in years. Not pocket change... 100,000s of BTC which has remained untouched for years.

Also with cold storage Bitcoins, some people have just lost their private keys.
I believe one man lost like 10,000 Bitcoins on a harddrive he threw away. He then went dumpster diving but had failed.
Many of the first coins may have ended up like this, but nobody knows for sure.

There are also the Bitcoin eater addresses, addresses that are meant to eat bitcoins, or destroy (maybe someone knows the private key and will grab those later on in life).


All we know is, we can theorize this as this is the mining speculation board Cheesy
