The altcoin section is hands down the most active part of the forum by far so why is it so neglected?
Probably because any serious alt-coin has their own forum site and this board is but a mere shadow...

Well written article. Take some time to read it ppl and pick your side.

Just curious, is there anyway to find out how much dust (transaction fees) are obtained when a block is found? Weighing up how much a solo Jally might uncover. I know the odds of finding a block with a Jally are tiny but I wonder what the rewards would be besides the 25 BTC for the block itself.

If you are truely shitting your pants over this, I will consider buying your near worthless BTC for penny in the dollar...1BTC = $0.01
I await your PM

I haven't looked at Bitcoin for months, until just now. Damn, it's hardly changed at all in the last six months. Some variation, but no overall trend up or down. Also striking is that volumes haven't increased either. It must just be a sea of people holding BTC, with no dividends, in the hope of a new price bubble, so they can sell up and return to fiat. But there is no news. No large scale increase in use, or major new investor, or price variability or anything. I can understand that you must all be very bored!
My forecast, for what it's worth, is that the stability will remain as everyone just holds, until one day something better is invented, then BTC will collapse, quietly, and without any fanfare.
sadly suspected by a few ppl...will it become true....*shrugs*

Unlikely that your dorm would handle the juice. This is designed to be a rack moutned system which typically runs off a 3-phase 15Amp per phase set-up - for Australia. I think the same will apply for the US, it is a rack mounted item that will require a higher than normal power supply and plug. butwhat would I know, I am only an Electrical Engineer.

Is it possible to make any decent money unless you are above Jr?
If you are below "Member", you won't be making much. Even Members don't make much. The real money starts rolling in at Sr Member and beyond. Never understood why there is so much difference in payment between full member and senior member. Plus, it takes 4 months to get from full member to senior member. Way too long.... More senior members are more likely to; 1. be trusted by the community, 2. give more back to the community through online technical, economic or general threads, 3. be more experienced in bitcoin matters including development history (protocol, companies, people, etc...)

Primedice is great, 0.0006 per post, if you can post a lot you get a lot!
From I can see primedice has the biggest campaign here? Are they paying out regulary? and is it weekly or monthly? Primedice pays monthly with minimum posting of 50 before payment and yes it is rolling

To the moon! <~~~ seems to have arrived with DOGE coin but either-way, it is really starting to shit me to tears...

Is it hard?
How long is a piece of string? I think this is a spam kick off...

I put GPU mining profits (Q2 2010) into a 1.5kWh solar array, grid connected. So now the elec from that is thought of as free as I do not owe anything on it

I see your problem, your fucked up weather report is in dumb-ass Farenheights... Move to a country with a decent temperature measurement system. e.g. Celsius A lot easier to understand in laymans terms. Example: 0 C = Water frozen in the front yard 100 C = Water boils on stove Now lets look at dumb ass F. 0 F = WTF! No one should be forced to live in this sort of shit 100 F = getting nice weather? fuck knows cause it is a dumb ass reporting method

Look at all these designs, some look good some just spamming the good thread.
care to point out your thoughts about want is SPAM? Looks to me like all designs put up have had some thought & effort put into them...

Anyone got some USB thumb drive miners they are prepared to donate to a renewable energy operation?

If you have turned a miner off but would still prefer them to be active, then please cosnider my proposition.
When BTC ramped up in late 2011 ~ mid 2012, I converted a chunk of BTC to a 1.5kW solar panel system. This 'free' elec power is now used to power my house and a small rig setup consisting of an R-box (30GHs), a Jally (10GHs) and a pair of 6770s (~370kHs). Sure it doesn't make any serious money but it does help secure the network for 'free'.
I reside in regional Victoria, Australia, were we have an abundance of solar energy. I am a systems engineer (electrical background) whom hopes to tinker further to produce a hybrid power option (wind & solar).
If you have any unwanted miners, please consider sending them to me so they may mine on until they reach a natural death (P&H by neg.).
Msg me to discuss.
Regards,
Cranky
What you are doing is admirable, dont get me wrong, but isnt it more profitable to just sell excess electricity to distributer (power company)? In my country there is a special rate for buying off solar generated electricity, and its highly profitable ATM. There is an issue of some permits and licences that u need to aquire tho. Higher rates for exporting solar, or any renewable energy, is no longer available in Australia. My 1.5kW solar panel systems returns $0.66kWh for exports, after house consumption - net not gross, however any new systems are only eligible for the wholesale export rate of $0.08kWh. Given elec costs retail of ~$0.30kWh, the govt wants people to size their solar for only their own means. The bigger issue here is that once a solar panel array has paid for itself, because it is maintenance and fuel free the profit margin becomes huge compared to a coal / gas fired power plant. This effectively puts that plant out of business. The elec companies in Australia have successfully lobbied to protect their old infrastructure by no longer paying premiums or even retail rates to exporters thereby increasing the payback period from ~5 years to ~12 years. most home owners struggled with the 5 year period due to the likelihood of relocation as a clause in solar panel installs for premium rates is that it is only for the originally installed property. If someone moves the solar panels to a new location, they loose the premiums and revert to wholesale. So ion closing about the elec rates and permits, the higher rates are no longer available in Australia and if you want to connect to the grid then you do need special permits. My expanding operation is a stand alone suite, not grid connected, so I do not need any special permits and all the power is consumed by the mining gear.
