Can I mine bitcoins on a laptop? If not, can I mine with any USB miner or ASIC Miner?
Use your laptop for running your USB miner 24/7 But if the ASIC Miner dont need host computer, use your laptop for something else, like offline armory wallet (If you dont need the laptop anymore)

Nobody expected such an increase in a short period of time. What are your thoughts, will Bitcoin reach $1500 before 2014? Wouldn't that be something worth celebrating for New Year's Eve? Very likely will reach $1500 before 2014. But even if so, dont celebrate yet, at New Year's Eve the price might be $500

4) My hashrate was about 45 kh/s at first and by adjusting the thread concurrency I brought it up to 290-350 kh/s. I am very much confused still by some of the parameters in cgminer.
My current string is: cgminer --auto-fan --auto-gpu -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3334 -u radix.1 -p pass --scrypt -I 18 -g 1 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192 --shaders 1600
I have no clue what thread concurrency means or shaders (total newb, I know) but I found that using 8192 for TC I have 0 hardware errors where with my old value of about 6000 I was hitting 300-1000 hardware errors (HW:) in cgminer within a 24 hour period.
Ideally I would like to tweak this and also add in a parameter to control the temperature from going over XX degrees. I know this is possible.
The -I 18 looks like aggressivity setting, it has highest impact on hashrate. Try increase it, if HW errors doesnt rise (or lower it for HW errors to fall). I have 20

The Great Crash has finally arrived.
It is far from big crash. We will see tommorow when deposits shows on exchanges!

When I was kid I had similar experience with nice hair cutter, I could feel her body heat as she came in close. I did not masturbate though, you made it to new level of experience.

Step 4/5 is where you spend most of your time. Billions of checks before any worthwhile solution is found.
with 1 difficulty it is 2^32 checks (4.294.967.296) on average Current difficulty is 609.482.688, so 609.482.688 * 4.294.967.296 checks on average to find new block

I'm expecting the current silliness to peak around $1000 and crash back to about $500.
Did I call it, or did I call it? Heh. Just wish I'd been confident enough to sell at $900 and buy back in at $550. But you told around $1000, not $900. Or you trading at China exchanges

Why fork ? If you want change Bitcoin protocol, just make new alt coin

10 seconds after the 3rd mention of "coin validation" or "red list", don't bother to refresh just hit sell.
lol idk...
If they implement such a program, I'll be laughing and watching... with a sizeable amount of LTC ;-) I never get why Litecoin people think that what happens in Bitcoin wouldn't happen in Litecoin if it were worth anywhere near as much as bitcoin.... This. Any laws will not quote Bitcoin directly, just virtual peer to peer currency. And quote Bitcoin only as example

I think you can withdraw the faucet free funds if you don't want to bet. The thing is that the min threshold is 0.01 and the faucets gives 0.001 a day. I think it qualifies as a free faucet, what do you think? (I placed a bet waiting for the next dispense : incentive works!)
Okay I will check it out. If one has a reasonable chance to make that minimum withdrawal limit without betting than that would qualify as free. Thanks 0.001 is a lot in faucet world. Why the requirement to bet it disqualify it from list? It is still 0.001 a day and bet it or solve puzzle, what is the difference?

About the PPC - proof of stake concept is not secure as much as proof of work. So Bitcoin does not have any issues, in fact given huge hash rate it is only really secure coin

Mining is useless unless you have alot of starting capital
Well, how much starting capital is needed for mining then in order to have profit? No matter how much you put in BTC to buy mining units, you wont mine your BTC back

When I talk about Bitcoins to others I using torrent analogy. It is peer to peer as well but instead of sharing files you share transactions. The point is with peer to peer, it can not be closed down, thus very reliable monetary service in the long run
