Take a picture of the miners with a piece of paper in shot with your username and date on. Escrow would also be required to protect you and buyer.
Great idea. I will do that when I get off work this evening. At least that will prove you actually have what you're trying to sell. People obviously doubt new accounts without any proof of ownership as there are lots of scammers on here lately. Worthless unless you are holding a green lollipop in your left hand and a picture of a angry squirrel in your right.
You forgot the shoe on head  . |

I hope that everyone has received their Kialara by now and I also hope that everyone saw the little extra I added. It's an "Aluminium Casascius Physical Bitcoin"-coin, which I got during the European Bitcoin Convention in Amsterdam. Just to be clear, I do not own the website that's been printed on the back.
Hi bitcoininformation yes received mine about a week ago sorry forgot to say thanks for the freebie  . |

Btc price falling is because people are selling off their btc to cover costs / pay utility bills / purchase new equipment etc. Difficulty increasing is because there is more hardware being produced and mining now than ever before which is increasing in number by the day as hardware manufacturers mine with new equipment before its sold and shipped out. The hardware manufacturers are the only real winners in mining at the moment they can't go wrong.
Also very few people can afford to hold onto their btc.

Not only will difficulty continue to increase but block reward will halve again to 12.5 towards the end of the year from what I understand.

I think the pools luck has run out, no blocks found for a few days now even with high hashrate from time to time  Yes, the truth is that luck right now is horrible, no type of problem, no payments withheld, I think it is the lack of constancy in solomining is nothing good to pool hopping. Yeah luck is bad right now, hopefully it will come back . |

It doesn't say you will either  . Are you from tinydeal.com then? |

Fair play to you, if you can afford to lose it then thanks for doing it to help out others if its not legit. Not many people would do that. Unfortunately I think this is a scam and you've probably lost your money but you never know this might come good. I hope it does for you because you sound like a nice guy . Thank you I appreciate that. Now there is a ball in play in this thread that anyone can point to, should Mike pop back in here. Then we can see how he deals with it. I will post any and all updates. For now, I (a paying customer) am saying its a scam. Yes please keep us updated, I think that the jury is out and the scam tag has been well and truly given by the majority of people posting on this thread. |

Is it still worth mining bitcoin right now ?
Its the same old story, for most people mining at home on a moderate / expensive electricity tariff its not profitable even with efficient hardware. If you have cheap electricity and efficient hardware than you maybe returning a small profit but I don't see that continuing for much longer. Its winter here and if my miners weren't providing supplementary heating to parts of my house I'd switch them off and sell them. They are costing more to run than they're mining and that's been the same for the past few months. I don't mind at the moment though because of the heat they produce. Come the spring they're gone though it pains me to say, however electricity here in the UK is right up there with the dearest in the world. yeah you are far higher then my winter rate of 13 cents a kwatt (then figure heat use in the winter at 3 cents) so from now until May my power is 10 cents a kwatt. In may the summer rate is 16 cents and no heat benefit I will be done. Unless btc jumps really high in price. It all boils down to btc price really doesn't it. Shame its so low at the moment and I don't know if it will ever go much higher, especially in the near future. I'm running about $0.25 a k/watt which is a killer. But to be honest by running these tubes its cheaper overall than heating my office, kitchen and dining room 24/7 by alternative heating methods when you take into consideration the bitcoin return. I live in a very small cottage hence why 2 tubes heat my office and take the chill off the kitchen and dining room. Its not a big house by any stretch of the imagination lol. |

How much GH/TH is your current setup doing? No I cant afford to unfortunately, I only got into mining a year ago or so ago so missed the early easy mining. I'm running 2 x Asicminer Tubes @ 850 GH each so 1.7TH total. I could sell them and buy some S3's but its not worth the hastle for what I'd save on running costs. These tubes are running nice and steady and quiet after changing the fans which is a massive plus for me as they're in my office at home. |

Your sites down.
Edit: Its back again now. Front end and mining was down for about 5 minutes.
Do not know exactly what happened, because the hashrate has fallen steadily for a few minutes, I think the server has hung a bit and then has been fixed, sorry. Thanks for the warning. Not to worry its back up again now , thought it was best to let you know in case you didn't already. |

Are you talking of what is seen in the graph at 10PM? Yes just over an hour ago. I noticed one of my btc miners had stopped mining so tried to load your front page and it wouldn't for several attempts. My scrypt rentals went down and changed sites for the same amount of time. Looks like its been working ok since though. |

If I was selling your equipment I would list it all individually and the power supplies individually on ebay and have buy it now prices on everything for as low as you are prepared to go (taking into consideration ebay fees). I know its a pain doing multiple listings but I honestly think it would be your best bet.
Most people would buy one or two miners and might already have psu's. By selling it all together I think you're putting off the majority of your potential buyers.
Also offer collection as well as shipping options.

It's been a pleasure but I'm sad to say im closing up shop to move onto other business ventures that will hopefully be more successful. If anyone would like to buy some eggs (Bidoh) PM me and I'll hook you up anytime.
Peace and love

Tbh I thought you would be pissing into the wind with this, most people don't eat that many eggs and they're cheap enough from any supermarket. You have shown initiative though and I think most people on here appreciate that. Especially when it involves accepting bitcoin . I'm sorry it didn't work out this time, but I wish you the very best of luck with your future ventures . |

You will need to post pictures with your username and date on to show you have what you're selling and accept escrow.
