That's not love, that's "pity"!

I would thank her for her kindness and walk away.

Well, I wasn't sure if it had been tried. Since it was not written explicitly. At least, I thought. "the owner of the contact address does not respond", almost explicit...

I've learned not to think too much for other people. Especially when free coins are involved.

Update,

I will pay $500 for simply putting me in contact with the owner of Blockchain.COM
I will pay this even if the owner doesn't actually sell me the domain.

Hi Blockchain_Helper,

I'm in the race for the $500 (in BTC):
http://whois.domaintools.com/blockchain.com

The WhoisGuard email address will be forwarded to the real address:
"When some one sends an email to your uniquely generated xyz.protect@whoisguard.com address, we will in-turn forward it your real email address which you specify. "

Here you go:

Good luck! Robert
24  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Bitcoin and the ASIC Conundrum on: September 10, 2012, 08:04:09 PM
Hi all and thanks to Korbman for the analysis,

Here some of my thoughts on this matter.

An FPGA running at 800 MH/s would cost around $800 running at 80 Watt.
The BFL ASIC SC presumably running 40 GH/s costs $1300 running at 100 Watt (uncertain).

While neglecting the difference in electricity consumption, the ratio ASIC to FPGA would be:
(40000/1300)/(800/800) = 30.8 times the capacity per dollar on purchase.

If we assume the current network capacity of 20TH/s is running on FPGA and invested hardware would be completely replaced per dollar by ASIC, the resulting network capacity would be around 600 TH/s.

BFL would need to sell 15000 SC's (or 600 SC rigs) for the miners to achieve this enormous figure.

Using TP's Bitcoin calculator, I would reach break even after almost 500 days:
http://bit.ly/P8lEME


Having said that. This figure will probably not be reached in a short period. Miners have to invest in hardware again. Miners have to ensure more bandwidth. Making the entire operation more like running a business.
BFL probably won't be able to ship 600 rigs, or the equivalent in single SC's in a short period. Resulting in sales for the amount of 600*$30k = $18M.


Then again, I think Korbman's TH/s prediction (143 TH/s) will be reached in 2013 easily.


Challenge me :-)

26  Economy / Gambling / BitMin.nl - Bitcoin Mining Investment: invest in ASIC mining on: August 30, 2012, 11:41:13 AM
My website is in Dutch: http://www.bitmin.nl/
Sorry about that.


I ordered multiple BitForce SC's (ASIC) from the investors' money. All BTC revenue from mining will flow back to the investors, until break even is reached. After that a percentage will be for BitMin, my company.

You will receive monthly reports on revenue, power usage and ROI.

Participation from 175 euro's.


Message me if you're interested. I'm an honest guy. I put my own money on the line as well.

Cheers, Robert

Message me! We can schedule a call or chat.

Hi mc_lovin,

I bought two BitForce SC's in August:

Thanks for keeping this up to date! Cheers, Robert

Hi everyone,

got introduced with Bitcoin by a friend in the beginning of 2011. Only just now do I seem to grasp the implied effects of this new technology.

My aspirations lie with modest mining and trying to come up with plans for online services with BTC involved. Getting the coins rollin'!

I hope to be able to contribute to the collective wisdom on this forum.

Kind regards, Robert

Hi,

This is my whitelist request. Please approve.

I've been lurking on the forum for over 4 hours, but wasn't always logged in.

Some days ago I pre-ordered a BFL SC and would like to add my order details to the page that tracks orders.

Thanks, Robert
