In any case, does anybody know the fees in the reverse direction? If I ask mt. gox to send me a bank wire for $1000, can anybody give me a rough estimate of how many USD I will actually receive?
It depends a little on the fiat exchange rate. The fees average roughly $31 for me. |

It should only be using a megabyte or two of data at most - is it really needed to move it to sdcard? How much data/storage do you see it using as reported by android?
Version 3.08 Total: 4.75MB App: 3.72MB Data: 1.03MB |

A fraud would require the seller to misrepresent the item in some way.
Like misrepresenting the delivery date? |

I would like to set all this up in my house. Here, we have 120 volt lines and 15 amp breakers.
so on circuit you can have 120 x 15= 1800 Watts maximum (not taking in account Cos phi effects and such) Buy a kill-a-watt and mesure the exact consumption of your individual machines in action. Slap on some extra safety margin For example, with this weather, my Batch #1 Avalon @ 300 MHz are consuming 655 Watts So three machines would be > 1800 (and I would not try to load it to 99%) You should not go over 80% for a continuous load like a miner. Keep it under 1440 watts for a 15 amp breaker. |

you also forget at the end of the day Josh is not a PR man hes not be trained in the art of dealing with complete and utter tools so ofcorse hes going to loose his temper...... to be honest im surprised he does as well as he does
No need to make excuses for him. Let's see what he has to say... I can replace both a technical lead and a PR/community lead
Actually, he is a PR guy. Everyone here is monumental assholes
Quite an interesting way of handling PR. |

To do the same in an asic is a totally different ball game. Clearly the lads at KNC either have never
done this,or are making some potentially fatal assumptions.
Sounds like the best they've done before is a 40nm hardcopy. Marcus: We have done designs that are much more complex...
Me: What Was that?
Marcus: That was a hardcopy. 40Nm hardcopy.

So far, (from looking at the plugs) I only see 1/3rd of a minirig being pictured. Where are the other two units?
In Inaba's farm. |

"Came through"?! It was supposed to be 1500 GH/s @ 1500 watts in October '12. Now it's 500 GH/s at 2400 watts in June '13. They didn't "come through". They blew it.
A) They will be compensating customers with 3x the number of units, so you will be getting the same hashrate as what you paid for. B) Lets see you do any better. 2000 BTC invested in a BFL pre-order 1 year ago now generates 13 BTC a day! Wow!!! This *might* break even someday. 100 BTC invested in an Avalon pre-order 9 months ago has already made back its investment several times over. |

Each 500Gh/s unit should be around 2,300 to 2,400 watts. We are going to take some measurements after we get some food.
That is amazing. BFL came through. 500 Gh/s!!! Can be run from a double pole 15A circuit. Very nice. "Came through"?! It was supposed to be 1500 GH/s @ 1500 watts in October '12. Now it's 500 GH/s at 2400 watts in June '13. They didn't "come through". They blew it. |

You are right of course.
But i think the truly massive rises may be behind us.
Oh, the massive rise is just getting started. |

This "if you had kept the BTC..." thing.
I like mining, and have always sold half (or, preferably, directly buy stuff with them) and kept half.
the point of bitcoins is to USE them.
Do you like less bitcoins or more bitcoins? Buying a miner that generates less bitcoins than it cost to purchase it just leaves you with less bitcoins to use. |

I could put this in context that as far as I understand batch3 from Avalon are charging 75 BTC for 66GH/s in their batch3 which I believe is running late and no ETA. On todays conversion that is about £73/GH/s so is that so very different from our £80/GH/s?
Avalon batch3 will arrive long before your device. Therefore your device is worth much less than the Avalon pre-order. 75 BTC several months ago had a great chance at decent ROI. 75 BTC now for a device several months from now is questionable whether it will ever break even. |

3) Again this protocol change, so I would have to convince miner to mine my transactions
Duh! Of course you need to convince miners to mine your transactions. That's the way it has always been. That's the way it will always be. If you want miners to mine your spammy dust transactions, then attach a nice big fee to it. You'll have plenty of miners willing to mine it for you. Your problem is you want to send dust without paying for it. |

Marcus: The die size will be...very large.
That sounds like trouble waiting to happen. Why is that? So many things can go wrong. Timing signals/voltage drops across the whole die, low wafer yields, too much heat, etc. |

I agree, but BFL offers some of the lowest cost/GH devices. If their devices aren't profitable to operate in a couple months, neither will most of the other available ASICs devices.
Low cost, but very long wait time, which obscures their true cost. Their true cost is extremely high because of the rising difficulty. BFL ASICs where supposed to ship when the difficulty was 2 million. Now it's over 15 million and rising, and most BFL customers haven't received their units yet. |

In a little over 2 weeks it will pay for itself. And depending on how much a Bitcoin is worth in the future will determine if it will continue to be worth running. At only 35 Watts you really can't lose.
I have been running on EMC for 6 days, the pool luck has been average and I have mined approx. 1.23BTC, ROI ($163) should be accomplished inside of 10 days, HOWEVER ROI on the BTC I used will be somewhere around 10 months!! hmph.. Come on Singles...  10 months if the difficulty doesn't go up. But it will. You will never get back the BTC you spent. BFL is the only one who will profit from your purchase. |

"Always"? You speak in a lot of absolutes... Ever heard of silent partners/investors? Not everybody who invests in a venture wants their name on the building, or in the newspapers. BFL Press Release noted Nasser G...
now backed by private venture capital...
Red flag #1: Executives that won't post their real name. Red flag #2, an unnamed venture firm Red flag #3, and indeterminate amount of investment. Sketchy, and thus likely to be misleading. Most likely it wasn't a real venture firm. Now let's look at a real company with real venture investment. http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130516005639/en/BitPay-Raises-2-Million-led-Founders-Fundsays Tony Gallippi, co-founder and CEO of BitPay...
additional $2M in seed round financing led by Founders Fund...
Also joining this round is Max Keiser’s fund Heisenberg Capital
said Brian Singerman a Partner at Founders Fund...
Executives using their real names, real verifyable venture firms, investing a real amount of money. That's how a real venture investment works. If I had to guess, the BFL "investment" was simply Sonny using some of his stolen funds from his previous scam. |
