Idle CPUs use far less electricity than CPUs running on full load.
So yes, it might actually cause quite a bump in the electric consumption of both cooling and CPUs.

I am, because the price per bitcoin will follow the difficulty price close enough to 1:1 for me to care.
It can be and has in the past been for VERY long stretches far less profitable than now. Currently BTC are overvalued (considering difficulty) a lot still. Most likely incoming bank transfers to MtGox on monday will catch the bursting bubble and let the price shoot up to the next one though.  |

I liked the "USD per 100MH/s" one more...
Is there a reason why you display only so little data?

Compared to earlier levels, mining is still very profitable, so I would either count on the greed of people and buy or do some more calculations and conclude that mining 1 BTC costs ~1-2 USD, so they're still far overpriced.
On a side note, MtGox seems to run dry. With just 200k USD you could run the price up to 24 USD or with ~ the same sum in BTC push it down to 10 USD.

Yes, they are THAT slow on Bitcoin calculations.

By the way, the 16 USD offer is gone already while I'm still waiting for my funds to get enough blocks to clear... At least I got already 11 Bitcents from just ~1 USD of referrals after a few trades!  |

6.) as soon as it appeared confidence in Bitcoin was permanently eroding, i would begin to pull all the hashing power off the network - "oh no!" people (and especially my blogging surrogates) would say: "it's the end! all the miners are leaving, and the network will be insecure!"
...meanwhile the Bitcoin net hash rate just broke the 8 TH/s barrier the second time and this time even higher. Also Blockchain forks are not that much of an attack, as long as they are less than 6 blocks long. To create even a 3 blocks fork, you need either a LOT of hashing power (FAR more than 51%) or a LOT of luck. Mining is STILL more profitable than a few weeks ago, the net hash rate is still high as always (and growing) - so where's the problem? It just seems like someone did dump a few thousand BTC on MtGox on open instead of dark pools, either to buy in slowly later or because he/she needed the money. Nothing more, nothing less. |

Well... why don't you?  |

sell your 90x 5830s on ebay for 150 each = 13500$$
eBay takes a good cut from this and might also rate you as professional seller --> problems with taxes guaranteed (at least in Europe). I'd rather try to sell as many rigs as possible here in the forum - the GPUs alone are woth a lot more to people here than 150 USD a piece. I the end I just doubt that the OP is not a troll, so I'm outta here. |

https://bitoption.org/Just create attractive longer term options on your BTC and make sure to be able to pay your CC depts on short term! Also where the hell do you put 30 rigs with 3 GPUs each?! Must be a lot of heat and noise...

So you choose to pay fees while you could pay none just because 1 user writes he likes it?  Anyways, I recommend Eligius, automatic payouts without having to do anything (if you stop mining after 1 week you receive the remainder) > all. Btw. it's perfectly possible wo mine in several pools at once to decrease variance. |

LulzSec would claim they killed the pope if he dies tonight just to get some fanbois to go like this --> <-- |

Ah, and another question:
Where do you get this data from?
I guess from bitcoincharts.com... right?
|
|
|
|
There's a marketplace subsection on this forum... Btw. good move! I expect the BTC value to skyrocket after money shoots in at MtGox on Monday, after banks do their transfers! |

He mentioned that he had BTCguild selected in the first post.
After fiddling with the "Solo utilities tab" and probably trying to launch her bitcoin client in server mode (and maybe also trying to connect to it?) |

Nah, I don't like giving out payment details - and also I like to help people.
If you feel like it, you can send some bitcents to the adress in my sig --> but I won't feel good at all if I get paid just for being helpful on the internet.

Won't take long until MtGox is empty!
Only ~150k USD in bids until 10 USD has been reached...
The market needs both BTC and (even more) USD very fast or it might become _very_ volatile.
Nice weekend for gamblers, just earned another BTC on a price swing.

You need to set your "Server" in GUIminer to BTCguild, not to solo! Stop messing with port forwards... |

You really can't multiply and divide by values in Celsius and get meaningful numbers. You would need to convert to Kelvin (i.e. add 273.15) to compare temperatures in that way.
Why this? Kelvin and Celsius are using the exact same scale + stepping an are just 273.15° apart (as you said). Heat dissipation however is most likely NOT linear but rather exponential (it takes far shorter to cool down from 100°C to 90°C than from 30°C to 20°C if the room temperature is 20°C) so this chart is anyways useless. Heat is not generated in degrees Celsius, as a small hint... |
