this looks really cool, i might give it a try later on.

in your first post you say install it on a non-rooted phone. is this essential, or will it work on a rooted phone as well?

It works on rooted and non-rooted as far as I know. But you're obviously more vulnerable if you install it in a rooted phone... (and the same goes for iOS and wallets on a jailbroken phone)
oh ok, thanks for answering my question. i have a rooted phone so that's why i was wondering.  Grin

You can install it, but I don't recomend you store big amounts of coins in that phone Smiley

For folks saying their profit is lowering/no profit... For me, they seem to be doing good, they would have already shutdown if they weren't having HUGE profits Wink

As for maintenance... Well, 24/7 maintenance, what's better than that?! Grin

And yes, a lot of people underestimated the actual mining cost. I mean these guys are just here for the profit. they wouldn't even bother what happens to bitcoin. And definitely if mining for loss, they won't be for sure will continue their operation. and that's a fact.

They are around for profit, yes, but if what the manager said is true, he cares a lot about Bitcoin, as he has 50% of what he owns in Bitcoin...

that movie is from August 2014 when the price was around of 450

Yes, but would it be published if they were closed? I find that odd...

they didn't close yet. I am not sure how they are paying all the bills with the actual BTC price

Exactly. They didn't close it. Yet Smiley So they're still in profit.

you can maintain a company from "your" pockets for a while too. it doesn't need to have a profit. there are many companies who are on loss for years...

You simply have to know when to stop. This is not a company, and they haven't got that many employees, so it's easier for them to just shutdown, unlike a normal company. They just turn everything off and sell the hardware (there's a market for such machines, as you can see in this forum)

If you're running something from your own pockets indefinitely, then it's simply not worth it, whether it's a company or a mining facility.

These guys aren't like us, they're here for pure profit. They accept no failures, and they only take pure profits. They can't afford to be like a home miner that simply says "oh well, BTC/USD is down, I'll just wait to see how this goes, and I'll mine with a loss until then". Mining at a loss for these guys doesn't mean a few dozen of dollars/month lost. It can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars lost. It's just too much at steak for something like this to mine on a loss Smiley

Ah! I was this close to the last one, lol. I figured it out but the problem was the keyword! But can't blame the OP, he accepted many different keywords... Oh well, better luck next time, haha Grin

Are these "nulldata" transfer those composed of "blockchain vandalism" or "blockchain graffiti"?

They've been having really bad luck, unfortunately. Hope they find a new banking partner fast. Unfortunately all of them seem to be dissing Bitcoin, as they're probably all afraid of the technology...

Too bad he doesn't update us anymore, although he was online today. I'm really curious if they shipped him bricks, or shit haha

Not really getting the offsite investment option. Is it just basically a way to increase risk/benefit?

3534  Bitcoin / Press / Re: 2015-02-06 CA - BFL Offers Pre-order Refunds In The Form of Cloud Mining on: February 07, 2015, 07:47:03 PM
Well, I see no issue in them offering the third option (mainly because probably no one will activate that option, lol). It's kind of irrelevant if they offer cloud mining or not, if they have to option for BTC and fiat refund.

The question now is: do they have the funds to refund customers? I'm starting to doubt they do. Will everyone be "Butterfly'd" for a second time?
3535  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-02-03] CD: Bitcoin Mining Firm KnCMiner Raises Further $15 Million on: February 07, 2015, 07:41:33 PM
I thought they were giving up new chip development and would be focusing on cloud mining services... What happened? Was it because of the capital injection, or they weren't planning on giving up making chips to begin with?
3536  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2015-02-06] Video: Life Inside a Secret Chinese Bitcoin Mine on: February 07, 2015, 07:38:57 PM
I was also immediately curious about the miners when I saw the video, especially because they say they're a Bitcoin mine, and I didn't recall seeing those miners on the article published a few months ago...

I immediately recognized the design and I too think they're SilverFish miners.

Maybe their profits mining Bitcoin directly were going down and they decided to have a few Scrypt machines? Seems like a sensible strategy to me. Also, those machines are from China, so they probably bought them really cheap and didn't pay much to ship them, or they even picked them up themselves...
3537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Chinese Bitcoin Mine That's Making $1.5M a Month on: February 07, 2015, 02:20:43 PM
I watched the video and thought he said they made 1.5 $m since they opened. Video was filmed in October 2014, and factory had beeen open a "couple of months"

Cost of operating is 80000$ monthly

looks like a massive fire hazard.

These farms seem to be well maintained, and don't forget they have people there 24/7. In case anything goes wrong, it can be quickly controlled.

I think smaller home miners have as much fire hazard as this farm Smiley
3538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Chinese Bitcoin Mine That's Making $1.5M a Month on: February 06, 2015, 09:27:35 PM
Amazing! So these are the guys that appeared on several crypto media... They have nice farms going on! Seeing it in video just made me even more amazed.

Hope they keep up, even with declining prices. I wish I had such farms, haha Grin
3539  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Can we Vanitygem BIP32? on: February 06, 2015, 07:04:13 PM
I have a similar question as the OP ... How about multisig addresses? Can they be calculated by something like vanitygen?

Yep, they could. Though I don't think a tool exists to do that yet, it would be somewhat complicated, more complicated than the OP's proposal.

I see, thank you for the answer Smiley
