currently my mining is a meager 300 mhash, and i tend to spend what i get more or less right away. (my video game habit is killing my wallet.dat) but hopefully i'll eventually have enough mined income to cover the basic life expenses... course to do that would require an ever increasing amount of hashing power. sigh.

Not trying to be Johnny RainCloud but with so little, virtually not much adoption of btc; what makes you think it'll go anywhere near $100; let alone $5000? Just wondering ... what is the basis of this speculation?
look at it this way: in three years, btc went from the initial creation to where we are now. what, then, does 20 years hold? personally, i haven't the foggiest.  |

ISK will be pinned to Bitcoin in EVE and Dust 514 to DOMINATE the world of online gaming. =p
oh god, my two passions merging. i'd be done for! |

since we're WAY off the original topic anyway i'm gonna ask something I've been wondering about libertarian views. i get the road privatization thing, actually. ghetto's? well, they would have shit for roads just like they have shit for houses. *shrug*
but what about medical? the current system in the US (where i'm from) is jacked, i think we can all agree. medical insurance and all. one alternative, obviously, is the socialist route like they have in some countries like the UK and other places. what's the libertarian angle?

i'm wondering what we're looking at for the final product. a single chip for really low cost, multiple chips, or big TH boxes...
any info friedcat?
In the first batch, we will get boards with multiple chips on each. Single chips could be provided for sale later, when there are interested business partners. good to hear. i'm not in any position to buy a $30,000 box, afterall... gona be lots small units bought over time here. |

Does it bother you that CPU's two years ago were not as fast as CPU's today and they cost more 2 years ago?
I'm actually surprised that it doesn't bother people that few will make any profit on their BFL FPGAs and then they must all double their money they give to BFL before they reach that profit mark and start again ... due to BFL themselves. What choice is there? If a person doesn't do it, someone else will and then they are left behind. There is no choice  Let's hope they can reach a break even on the money they spent on the FPGA and then the ASIC before something happens there also .... what else could happen, anyway? aside from quantum computing, isn't the only danger to ASICs other ASICs? thus one could infer the hasing of one ASIC chip (assuming both are actually full custom asics, anyway) compared ot another wouldn't be THAT drastically different. or so i'd think. how wrong am i? obviously if BFL's isn't full custom and someone elses IS, well, that's a different matter. |

Why is that important? What does it matter to you?
If they supply a device which you are willing to pay for, it doesn't matter if it is made with hand soldered discrete transistors on a perf board.
If you buy a BMW and you will deliver a Dacia say the same? as long as it preformed to my expectations, it wouldn't matter how it did so. of course, for a dacia to meet the expectations of a BMW... well, the basic functionality might be the same, but not the OTHER expectations. but an alterra hardcopy with the announced stats vs a true full custom ASIC with the stats? i really don't see the difference. course based on what i've read around these forums, i gather those stats wouldn't be possibly with a hardcopy. |

since it appaears the casings were custom made, it's a shame about the rest.  |

Adam, hit the buy button! shhhhhhh......  quiet you! (sorry, couldn't resist. ) |

i'd trust the bid walls far more then i ever would the asks. i mean, who wouldn't want to get some coins cheaper then the current price by catching them as the price shifts? it's risky, of course, cause the price could just go down farther then your bid. but catch the right flucation and you're golden. ah, gambling. |

not to self: log in to bitcointalk more often. i totally missed this. (me and my five shares totally matter. ) |

I had someone send this msg to theymos, on my behalf I looked at the img www.thebitcoinreview.com/test/bug.jpg. This img was posted to show a bug in that bitcoin price watch tool. I stuffed the picture in a random folder on my sever. I later used the same folder to test out a password protected directory using the .htaccess and .htpasswd files This test folder is littered with junk files and broken tests, and this password protected test was among them. Because the img was posted on the forum was in this now password protected director. The login screen would pop up if someone went and view this post on bitcointalk. I never saw this effect, if I had I would of removed that post myself. I was not Phishing. And no username or password were logged. I would never do this, and I felt insulated that anyone would think me a cheep hack. I understand what it looked like. but in this case it was not what it looked like. I apologies for this, it was a careless mistake on my part, and would hope that my account "adamstgbit" could be un-banned here is a screen shot of the test folder on my sever. http://s7.postimage.org/wtve3obqz/Untitled.pngnote the last modified date on the img and .htaccess file. Thank you, Adam St********* thebitcoinreview.com click the link to see what I'm guessing would happened when some visted the post with this embedded img in it www.thebitcoinreview.com/test/bug.jpghmm.. now i see "Internal Server Error" it should show a pop up asking for a username / password.. i got the popup as described. silly adam. |

Then perhaps we could expect those steps to be walked on. not gonna say much, but I'm sitting cash heavy just for that reason... alot of us are doing that waiting for new lows, is kinda risk free, right? Please point us the the post that you received the ban for!  I said dont ask, its a long and not very interesting story... I found it interesting before you edited it away, but I guess I'm just a nerd like that. me too, actually... |
