You could also do it with GPUs if you wanted. But why waste the time and money?
I am just stating fact. I did not say anyone would do it. All I said was that it was possible.

I truly dislike people who grow pot and sell it via Bitcoin. It ruins Bitcoin's reputation. ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

I saw the thread about jgarzik getting the first ASIC, and I was thinking. You could 51% a small alt-chain, say TRC, with a few ASICs. The new Avalon ASIC runs at about 70 Ghash/s (reported by jgarzik). Terracoin's network hashrate was estimated by crazy_rabbit (Nov 2012) to be running at about 100 Ghash/s Source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=123720.0Two of the new ASICs could 51% terracoin. Watch out. -- If you have any corrections you would like me to make, please suggest them.

Bitcoin is faster & more efficient than credit card transactions, and transactions can't be frozen/reversed.
Downloading and verifying the blockchain is a pain in a**, though.

I am having this odd problem:
rich@rich ~/ecoinpool-build/ecoinpool $ ./test_launch.sh ==> ecoinpool (compile) ==> ebitcoin (compile) ==> rel (compile) ==> ecoinpool (compile) Erlang R15B (erts-5.9) [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:true]
Eshell V5.9 (abort with ^G) (ecoinpool_test@rich)1> {"init terminating in do_boot",{{badmatch,{error,{"no such file or directory","log4erl.app"}}},[{ecoinpool_test_launch,start,0,[{file,"src/ecoinpool_test_launch.erl"},{line,29}]},{init,start_it,1,[]},{init,start_em,1,[]}]}}
Crash dump was written to: erl_crash.dump init terminating in do_boot ()
Please tell me what I need to do in order to fix this error.

I would not trust my phone-like device to hold my money. Never, ever, ever.

I goes against my moral values, and it would be illegal. I am not a thieving jerk, and I do not wish to be arrested. I knew someone would ask that, however.

If you want, I will generate a custom bitcoin address for you.
Here are the rules, though: -The custom pattern you want (e.g. 1RichG) may not be longer than 6 characters -It may take me up to a week to get back to you
1. Please email me at ruchg1@gmail.com with what pattern you want, and how much you will pay me (min. BTC0.05), and I will reply with an address for you to pay me at (when I am done), and when you pay me, I will send you the address and private key.
2. Import the private key.
There you go!

Thank you.

I do not like newbie restrictions either, but I can understand their use in deterring trolls. Trolls make forums REALLY messy.
