In order to acquire half of the pie chart, once ASICs are released, it would take $5M-$7.5M.  To acquire 3/4 of the pie, $10M-$15M.
Wich is nothing for someone who can spend billions.

Bitcoin here

Do you guys also translate "computer" and "internet" btw?

I use MultiBit but Electrum is good too.

2325  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Help solo mining- anyone? on: November 24, 2012, 11:30:30 PM
also, some other posts say you need to be in the giga hash range or tera hash range to actually succeed at solo mining. If my 2 machines are roughly 800-900 mhash, does that mean i am like, in the gigahash ballpark? .8 or .9 Ghash, right?
Lol. You need enough hashing power because otherwise you find a block every year or so by solo mining. With 1ghash you find a block every 5 months on average.  Cheesy

Moving bitcoins between earth and moon is much much easier than silver! You just need a private key on the moon and you are ok!

Let me understand, your "school" is what, a year of elementary school and nothing more? Because "read write and basic math" is learned the first year of elementary school here........

sooo....i thought google helped China restrict the internet? they ended up not wanting to go along with all the chinese government's requests?

Yes, they did help out the Chinese gov't initially, then they changed their mind as the requests became more and more invasive.

Actually, they've changed their minds after they were attacked: http://googleblog.blogspot.fr/2010/01/new-approach-to-china.html
Wow, nice job Google!  Shocked
2331  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Sex Ed for middle and High School on: November 23, 2012, 06:42:37 PM
Whats your take?
Excuse me but about what should we discuss? School should teach things! And sexual education is definitely one of the things that a school must teach!

I totally agree with meatball but i have to comment this

they die a gruesome/early death
If the socalled firepro, "professional" cards are unable to survive being used exactly for what they are made for: computation, then something is epic wrong
2333  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Do I have to open the bitcoin client to receive BTC from others? on: November 22, 2012, 05:35:13 PM
No, you do not. However, the BTC will not post until all of the data is sync'd

Which, I found out the hard way:  Depending on your comp, client, and amount of time since last downloading the blockchain, can take a FRUSTRATINGLY looooong time to sync  Angry  Grin
Use the Multibit client, problem solved

Looks like dictatorship

You can't even tell to others? Lol
2335  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which pool is best for 1275000MH/s ? on: November 22, 2012, 04:12:50 PM
He does NOT have 5% of total mining power now.

And when he will (aka when ASIC will arrive) then 127Ghash/s will be like nothing  Cheesy

Fiat failed tons of times, it will happens again and again. And it happens to a major fiat, then it can drag in the black hole others too.....

Bitcoin required to legally buy marijuana for medical reasons, that's epic  Cheesy "bitcoin is used to buy drugs" they say, and yes, that's true, it's LEGAL and it's for medical reasons  Cheesy

2339  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will the state do? on: November 21, 2012, 09:09:31 PM
Bitcoin is not decentralized. It is actually very centralized. Bitcoin is not just the network and the protocol. Bitcoin is also about mining. A coordinated action in just 24 hours can shut down a dozen mining pools and that will be the end. In the original paper Satoshi talked about CPU mining, not GPU mining. Technically the weakest point is not the exchangers but centralization of mining activity!
Then everyone start using p2pool. Good luck shutting down it.

Nah, actually a 51% attack is much easier and much much more effective.

we have a server cloud that is dedicated to mining new coins much faster than a lone machine (we see about a 30-40% improvement in efficiency regarding time spent, and we're pretty sure we can do better) mining 'from scratch' that works by receiving the code from an already existing BitCoin and doing what we're tentatively calling an 'algorithm dictionary search' to find a valid BitCoin integer in a relatively short span of time, with end user not needing any special hardware or typical mining headaches: just 1 BTC of existing currency to plug into the cloud to start the dictionary search.
To me this looks like bullshit  Undecided

But ehi, maybe i'm wrong.
