That's going to require some rather expensive hardware. "Having an ASIC fabricated is a highly technical and expensive proposition, typically beginning at the low hundreds of thousands of dollars. That’s primarily because contractors—almost always overseas—charge high prices to operate facilities containing the complex equipment needed to carve chips out of silicon wafers. ASICs are etched from blocks of silicon with microscopic precision. Butterfly Labs says it has paid for chips with features as small as 65 nanometers; BTCFPGA and some others say they have opted for a cheaper 90-nanometer production process." Building your own FPGA is feasible, but solder intensive: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=44891 |

I don't know about girls on the internet, but there are women. I'm right here. Some of us are nerds too.

If by golden egg you imply it'll take me until retirement age to mine enough to matter - then yes that's true.

My hardware can't compete, but I love the concept and enjoy playing with the software.

I'm getting between ten and 20 shares an hour. In a couple days that's translated to: 0.05412799999999999 ltc, or about 20 cents.

Proportional payments vary due to the erratic nature of finding work. For steady payouts choose PPS.

Have you fully synced it now? I've had transactions come through when my bitcoin-qt app was not running. The transaction did show up later.

Log into your account where ever you purchased your BTC and send the money to your bitcoin-qt address pasting just the address.

leave out all the http info and just paste the bitcoin address, and you have to send from the site you bought the BTC at - mtgox, etc...

The lock just means it's encrypted. Everything will still work. When you make a backup, send a payment, etc - it will ask for the password you gave.

Still working on my newbie posts so I can access other boards and ask specific questions. Currently trying to mine ltc and I'm not sure how to tell if it's working. litecoin-qt is running and several miners using cpuminer 2.2.3 are connected and hashing - but that's all I see, a hash rate.

You could get minor improvement by specifying algorithm. Not sure how it's done with the miner app you are using.

Running the original bitcoin client and rpc server on a linux machine. When I connect to it from another Windows 7 machine running gui miner it drops the hashrate to 400ishkh. Any suggestions?

Where'd you source your parts? How difficult was the soldering?
