and we agree, once we have a solid supply of stock we will look into a better e-shop system

Hi,

I received two Avalons from Chine this week. Put them in my basement next to my KNC and started mining.
Only problem is, compared to the KNC they are very noisy. Can hear them up till the first floor bedroom.

I can tell, the wife is not happy. Angry

To keep my machines running I was thinking of cooling them another way so the fans run slower reducing the noise level.

Has anybody any good ideas of is there a working solution?
I was checking out gpu water coolers, they might do the trick.

Thx in advance


Yeah I have an idea...why dont you locate your balls, put them back in your sack and tell your wife to cook you some dinner. That poor schmuck that thru his hard drive away with 10 million in bitcoins stopped mining because his wife complained too. Some poor bastard i bought my avalon from sold it to me and all of his bitcoins for 100$ each in september because his wife was bitching. So if I were you, Id tell your wife to fuckin deal with it or you will find someone who will...best free advice youll ever get

Are you married? Smiley

Hell no, the divorce rate is 50% in America...and Ill be damned if some broad is going to take 50% of my shit as well as future payments while shes banging some other dude. Marriage is the worst business decision you can ever make. Im not bringing kids into this shithole so what is the point...Plus I like some flavor in my life, marriage is a nightmare for 75% of guys cause chicks are crazy. Once you get married you lose all control. Why do you think so many guys kill their wives instead of divorce? Its actually easier than divorce, thats why

I guessed you weren't married. Didn't guess the rest of the response though Smiley

Sure some people are happily married .... somewhere Wink

Of course...a broken clock is right twice a day too. I just dont like the odds. If you were in Vegas playing blackjack, and the dealer says "ok, if you lose this next hand, you will pay us now and for the next 5 years". Would you walk away or play?
727  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin ATM on: January 10, 2014, 11:41:11 AM
Sorry for the loss. What I was trying to say is know the code of what ever country you go to. I love Mexico but would never go there with out a close friend that spoke Spanish. I know for a fact the the safest places in Mexico is the strip clubs. The cartels don't want their money messed with. I've been down there many time and never encountered any problems and I'm 15 min from the border. People don't notice u there unless you make your self noticed.

 To digress so it would be $1000000 + to make it happen pluses licenses. The way I see it bit coins are like casino chips that don't have a set value so why can't u sell it just like that?

Oh thanks just dont go on the beaches after sundown...they are serious...the point is, its just not safe for Americans anymore unless youre in a resort town. But digression...you cant send casino chips to other countries and get money for them. Its all about laundering and the USA keeping track of all money transactions

So I the end the government just wants to keep track of the transaction and needs to make sure they get there cut. The volitility of BITCOIN is what they don't trust?


They just want their cut, and yes they like to keep track of all money spent and moved...thats why an transaction over 10k has to be reported no matter what.

729  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: I want to buy the newest mining generation on: January 10, 2014, 01:14:24 AM
Yes, you are the one guy...and there is always THAT guy.

Of course they deliver a solid product, they mined with it for 2 months before they sent it to you. Im glad you ordered those monarchs, maybe you will now feel what everyone has experienced. They will be worthless by the time they arrive just like everything else they put out. When KNC delivered their first round of jupiters they were hashing above what they had promised by 30-40 percent. People sold jupiters for 25k after mining with them for 2 months, and thats on a 6k dollar purchase price. BFL crap never even makes it to the actual buyer because the preorder is sold on ebay after they figure out it will be worthless by the time it comes. That practice pushes more people away from bitcoin in general and takes advantage of noobs. I did it myself, and BFL put me in that situation.  BFL is one of the last black eyes of bitcoin and I would love to see that company burn to the ground. KNC is the best mining company in the business imho...oh yeah and BFL sucks

Yes, I am just one guy, but I'm sharing my personal experiences, where you're sharing very vague and casual partial/mis-truths.

You have no proof they mined with the BTC equipment for any period of time before it was shipped to customers. The only info we have on that suspected action is A) They promised no pre-mining with customer hardware, B) All customer hardware was squeaky clean when people were getting them, including mine, and C) it took ~2 weeks to burn in the chips to where they would setting on a consistent hashrate every time you powered them on. That doesn't sound like a piece of hardware that had been mining for 2 months.

So I have multiple TH/s coming in April (hopefully, I will admit that the shipping date is unknown), but how is that any different than any of the 2TH units that people are pre-ordering?

IMO, BFL shot themselves in the foot when they increased their hashrate of the Singles from 40GH/s to 60GH/s (50% increase, before they had any chips to go by). Remember when they increased the hashrate to compete with the bASIC, which turned out to be an incompetent failure? They had to up the hashrate to stay relevant, but in doing so they had to redesign the board. I'm not expecting anything like that this time.

You have info on how many pre-orders were sold on ebay? It's prolly not the thousands of actual orders they sold/delivered. I know I didn't sell any of my pre-orders on ebay.

And please keep in mind: I'm not bashing KNC. They shipped a lovely product. I just don't think they poop glittery gold like you seem to think. I also don't think BFL (or Josh) is the spawn of Satan, like you seem to think. I like to take a more realistic, balanced approach, and weigh their pros/cons (of which there are some on both sides).

Well they gave the foundation 21000 bitcoins back in like May when they were still dicking people around on the regular, so thats why I think they were mining with the chips the whole time. Secondly, I look on ebay everyday and people probably sold a few thousand at least BFL preorders thru them. So much so that EBAY now does not allow the sale of preorders anymore. And that is a direct result of BFL, to say otherwise is just plain full retard. People were selling their monarchs preorders back in october. People took massive losses just to try and recoup something from their investments. Poor bastards...I bet it turned a lot of people off of bitcoin, so BFL is bad for bitcoin. Someone on this forum was sticking up for BFL too. He ordered a miner last wednesday, and it didnt ship until yesterday. That was one of the ones on the shelf of course, yet it still takes a week for it to leave the factory...BFL is just bullshit. How can you not like KNC, their shit went out on time and clocked way above the promised GHs. I got a 50GH from bfl and it would only go to 48GH. Ill have my 3 neptunes that I ordered a month ago before you get your monarchs...I paid 30 bitcoins for 9TH which will probably actually be closer to 11TH by the time I get them...Now, when did you buy your monarchs? For how many bitcoins, and how much was a bitcoin worth when you paid? Please answer that if you havent blown your brains out yet...

733  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin ATM on: January 09, 2014, 12:23:10 AM
Dude where are you in San Diego? I live close to the border also. It kind of funny how they said Mexicans are dirt poor when that country has the most Millionaires per capita in that country. Other then that Atm's work just like a middle man. I knew people that use to run ATM's at night clubs. What they did was just buy the ATM and it was connected to a telephone line that would access your account and just be the middle man. The only money they made was the fee for the transaction. I don't know what kind of laws there are but you are only really making money on transactions. Like at strip clubs and Indian casinos they would charge up to $4 bucks. But then again it may be different because you can also purchase bitcoins from the new ATM's. I just wish i had the funds to purchase 5 of them and set them up in the right locations. 100 transaction a day its $400 bucks at $4 a transaction. Or something like that.


Ok first of all, the millionaires dont live in fuckin tijuana or Laredo. The dirt poor mexicans that sell tacos at the borders do. Secondly, there are so many millionaires in Mexico cause you can do whatever the fuck you want and not have to worry about getting arrested. There is a reason pablo escobar was the richest man in the world at one point. Do you know how many millionaires we would have if the fuckin gangsters ran the country? come on man...and ATMs would take cash, your cash...the owners cash. Then that Mexican is going to send your cash back to America? No dude, the cartel just jacked your ATM...get a clue. its a lawless country...15 kids got taken out of a night club at 2pm in the afternoon a few months ago...all murdered, heads chopped off. Where in the fuck does that happen? Mexico, thats where. So again, just a horrible idea

Look at the sort of things that happen in the USA:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbine_High_School_massacre

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandy_Hook_Elementary_School_shooting

I guess the USA isn't a safe place to have an ATM either...

Well the difference is, those people got caught...basically. The Mexicans that kill/cut off the heads of politicians and police chiefs and attorneys and innocent kids and judges and police officers and reporters and journalists and activists and anyone else that stand in their way dont get caught for the most part.  Again its a lawless country

I really don't know how refilling ATMs works.  I've never owned one or researched it, but I've seen armored cash vans load ATMs in the US.  Perhaps it's only feasible for an actual Mexican business owner to own/operate a BTC ATM in Mexico.  I'm not even going to pretend to know, but it may be something for someone with the knowledge and experience to look into.  I'm not really looking at it from the ATM owner's perspective, but from the ATM user's perspective.  If US regulators aren't interested in letting me use BTC ATMs in the US, then I would have no qualms with crossing the border to do so.  I've walked across the border into Tijuana many times with out any problems.  It's been a few years since i've been down there, but there used to be sportsbooks that allowed you to place bets on American sporting events in US dollars located close to the border because it was illegal to do so in California.  Also, a lot of college kids that weren't old enough to drink alcohol in the US would just go to Tijuana to do their drinking.

I lived in Imperial Beach for a while but I've been living in Temecula for the past few years.  I used to visit Tijuana quite a bit and the closest thing to any sort of incident I ever had south of the border was a Mexican guy in civilian clothes once stopped me along a busy street in Tijuana, pulled a police badge out of his pocket and said I owed him $50 for jaywalking.  I offered to go to the police station with him, but he wasn't interested in doing that, so I just laughed at him and walked away.  He then continued to look for some other gringo that would fall for his scam.

Other than that one incident, the Mexican people were very friendly and hospitable.  Also, their strip clubs don't have all of the rules and regulations that the American ones do.  Smiley

One of the dudes I went with took one of the strippers back to the hotel and banged her. Also Im pretty sure I had a 11 or 12 yr old girl proposition me in Rosarito...very sad place
735  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin ATM on: January 09, 2014, 12:14:32 AM
Pablo eskabar was Colombian after the US killed him it created a power vacuum. Now that the only road to the US was through Mexico the Mexicans got smart. In terms of getting your ass killed. There are very few random killings. You tell me to get a clue I bet you are one of the guys that only watch the bad things that go on in the news. Like I bet you think that Pitbulls are the worst dog to have cause they bite everything they see when in fact dalmatians bite more people then pits do . Bro your mind is brainwashed by the media. If crossing that border was so bad why is it the busiest border in the world? Don't get me wrong there are bad people that do bad things for no reason at all. But people get killed for money or are tied to money somehow. You have a better chance of winning the Lotto then getting killed for no apparent reason now if you live next to drug den then yes your odds are greater that you will get caught in a cross fire. Oh one more there when the hell did the whole mexico thing come up anyways. My original post was talking about putting it in Mt View California, San Francisco and San Diego.

The point is where drugs and violence flourish, a lot of money is made. Secondly, I do read the news, and I have been to Mexico. I think I almost got jumped, my phone was stolen by a stripper, and I got overcharged to shit...300 bucks in 2 hrs...thats not pesos. Thirdly I had a family member murdered there over his watch they tried to steal. So I guess he would of won the lottery. Thirdly, I have a pit, her name is medussa and she is the best dog ive ever come across. Fourthly, its the biggest border in the world because everyone commutes out of that shit hole after work. Fifthly, The dude said you should put the ATM in Canada or Mexico which is full retard I agree. So thats how we got there. Sixthly, I dont think the get a clue was directed at you, but it is now. Get a clue. Do you actually think people havent been trying to get around all the regulation operating one of those? I know it just hit you, but yes people have been trying for a while. You have to have around 200k to get it done in Cali alone Id assume. Plus there are a few already headed there. So its probably not even worth all the effort at this point
736  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin ATM on: January 08, 2014, 11:22:07 PM
I'm assuming there are ATMs in Mexico now that are secure.  I wouldn't know, I'm no expert on ATMs, but would probably be best to locate it inside a business, like the one in Vancouver.

Right of course...and who would refill it? You just contact a Mexican merchant and give him access to your machine? Mexicans are dirt poor, and people who travel to mexico dont go anywhere near the borders or get out of their cars near borders...not americans anyway. There is no way to have a bitcoin ATM and not operate it yourself. No way

You will suffer until you pay the fine.

I'm assuming there would be fewer regulatory hurdles in Canada and Mexico.  If so, it would probably be better to locate them in towns that border the US and design the ATMs located in Mexico to accept US dollars as well as Mexican pesos and have the ATMs located in Canada accept US dollars and Canadian dollars so that Americans would be able to cross the border and change their fiat to BTC with a little more privacy.

hahaha that atm would be ripped out of the the ground in 10 minutes in Mexico. Or to go along with your avatar, "That ATM would up and vanish like a fart in the wind!" And Canada...whats the point. Who will load and unload it...the margins are very small on bitcoin transactions, thats the point. You would have to do everything yourself to turn a decent profit

Hello everyone I was hoping that someone that is much smarter then me can answer what I've been pondering. I'm getting interested in Bitcoin ATM's its reported that there is one in Vancouver Canada that has processed up to $100000. Now I know it would help the Bitcoin market. Would it be a good idea to find investors purchase these machines and put them in major cities? Like say Mt View California, San Francisco, San Diego. This would help make it easier to buy and sell bitcoins at a moments notice.
