i am LOVING my 20+ coins right now. more coins, more love feel free to increase my supply. 1F4j4Lha8BjL4wxwFVbGaQwMJ4Kd1brfXb lol, why not buy more? are you waiting for a better buying opportunity? broke as all hell. lost my meatspace job a bit ago, so looking for another while my ATI gpu chugs along. if i had some cash i could spend, i would absolutely be buying BTC right now.

I think this could be the last we'll see of ask walls before breaking $7.2. The correction was triggered by pirate's change of terms. When the bitcoinica payouts get going, it will continue the rally.
ah, is that what triggered the increase from 5 a month back? i never did hear a solid explination.

So I'm not up on all the type of mining technologies but I'm guessing ASICs' will cost a lot?
there is a high upfront cost to begin production, but once that's done, repeated production is dirt cheap on a chip by chip scale. hard to start up, but once going, easy to keep running.

fux, where'd you see that said? that's news to me.

The bubble has popped, slow decline to $3 on the way
Definitely. Of course, we'll want to get in at the bottom, so I'll set my buy order for $3.01, just for safety. Hmm, but what if someone else wants those $3 coins and sees my $3.01? I'd better set it at $3.02. Hmmm. $3.05. No... $3.10, definitely. That's as high as I'll go. If you get scared, Im offering to buy out any large holders now at $4.50.
Oh okay, $4.51. DAMNIT! $5.00 and that's my final offer. $5.50. $6Bollocks, $6.20that, right there? is hilarious.

when i first got into bitcoin, i mined for a while on my nvidia geforce 260... got up to about 2.25 btc. backed up the wallet along the way of course, and password encrypted the rar file using part of the "ring script" aka, that phrase inscribed on the "one ring" from lord of the rings. after reinstalling windows, the encrypted copy was the only backup i had. go to retrive it and... wrong password? what? oh god! hours pass, trying every concievable capitaliziation and spelling variation i could think of, searching the forum for ways to recover the unecrypted wallet or such... to no avail, of course.
then a year later or so i tried it again just for the heck of it and opened the file on the first try, of course. loss SAVED!
so, no losses here! but still, very interestign thread. makes me cringe at the thought of what the total losses are worth at current spot price...

hmm... i wonder what toenail clippings would go for...

any drop to 3 or thereabouts will be more or less short term, in my very likely poorly informed opinion. i can certainly see plenty of fluctiation for the rest of the year with the various activites in mining and the block reward halving expected. but i think that will all shake out by this time next year, give or take.
or, in other words: *sits back with popcorn*

until we know the actual power draw the jalepeno's need from the usb port, it's a guess. but since that is a power hub, it should suffice. again, guessing though.

Instead of being hostile fcks, you can all educate him. He clearly doesnt understand distribution and decentralization. What can i expect from bitcoin community? i'd extend that to society at large, honestly... though particularly so the internet. maybe that's just me and my experiences... though honestly, i kinda like it that way. educating people is great, it really is. but, to qoute Ron white, i think it was - "you can't fix stupid." ...course that was probably a horrible person to qoute just then...but the sentiment fit. ...ya know, sometimes i'm a real asshole... oh well.

Can you guys please clarify a bit on this? Is there a picture I can see? The one on the site looks like a freaking giant metal plate. How many watts will it need. If I order today, will I for sure have it on October?
Thanks.
that's the silicon wafer of the chips. not the finish product. to my knowledge there's no pictures of what they're actually gonna look like. though i'd wager, fromthe exterior, the singles would be... well, similar to the FPGA single, since they have the cases and such.

BFL: Are you willing to commit to a cap on SC hardware shipped per day or week, measured in TH/s?
For example, if you can assure us that no more than 30 TH/s will ship per week, the early buyers can be sure to recover their investment in a reasonable time before the mining difficulty equalizes at 20x what it is now. 30 TH/s would be 30 mini-rigs or 750 singles or 8600 jalapenos per week. Can you give us some idea of whether you'll be pushing out that many per week? Much less? Much more?
I think a major factor holding back some of your potential customers is the concern that they're investing alot of money into hardware that has no value outside of bitcoin mining, and once you've shipped about 200 TH/s of hardware, the difficulty factor will very soon put us back where we're at now in terms of ROI but without the backup plan of selling GPU's to gamers. Also, at that point, you will need to start cutting the price to keep sales flowing, which will kill anyone who couldn't mine enough bitcoins during the transition to cover most of their investment.
So, how much TH/s of hardware do you think you'll be able to assemble and ship per week once shipments start?
even if BFL could have capacity to rollout 200TH/s weekly, i think it would take 1-3 years for the network to grow to that level. yea. but what's preventing people from turning their rigs on and gobbling up the reward/driving the difficulty insanely high? what the network NEEDS may not be relevant, unfortunately.

he lives in a blank field?
i don't know about you, but i see two houses there...

i'm agreeing - ship em out all at once. everybody profits equally, or no one does.
