Hi everybody, new as well. Hope to capture some marketshare while performing great deeds for humanity
I have several ideas for making Bitcoin a sustainable currency one of which is sustained mining. Calculating the numbers for what it takes for a miner to become profitable, and the current technology and hashrates, it is easy to come to the conclusion that for scrypt mining gear it takes ~1.5 months to break even on your initial investment. Next, its possible to make more if you invest in stronger giga-hashing power, although that claim is still yet to be explored (possibly through the group-buy system set up in BitcoinTalk>Economy>MarketPlace>Hardware ).
Surely the community will hear of my efforts if they come to fruition, thanks.
Hope to chat soon,
