Or make two workers at your pool and create two batch files like the following (assuming your cards are named 0 and 1):

Of course you can tweak and add your settings but this should get them running.  You'll have 2 instances of cgminer with settings customized for each card.

Not including BTC, how many different altcoins do you have?  Not quantity of coins, but coin types.

Ok.  Thanks for clarifying.  So that means replies to posts too?

A buck per BTC every 6 hours?  Sounds pretty decent to me.

Once you make 16 posts the timer drops down to 74 seconds.

What happened:

On December 2 dominicwin and I negotiated a price to sell my BTC for a Chase Quickpay payment (which he advertises as a payment type).  I sent BTC to him and waited for my payment.  After not hearing anything I contacted him the morning of December 3.  I recieve a response saying that he lost his QuickPay verification and that he would refund my BTC.  I provided my BTC address but never received my refund.  On the morning of December 4 I asked where my refund was.  I finally received a response 13 hours later saying that he hoped his QuickPay issue would be resolved.  He also said that he'd send my BTC when he got home from work.  The morning of December 5 I still hadn't seen the transaction in my wallet so I said I would take MoneyPak or a refund and that I just wanted to complete the transaction.  Meanwhile I noticed he posted on his sales threads that he's "ready to trade".  I finally got a response saying that MoneyPak will be fine and that he will send the code when it's in front of him at home.  I asked specifically what date and time he would send the code.  He told me between 8-9pm pacific.  After that timeframe passed and noticing he's posting on his other scam accusation threads I sent another message asking for the code.  He said his work hours are not set and that it should be a few more hours.  I still have not received my refund or MoneyPak.

Additional Notes:

I just want the MoneyPak or my BTC and if I get either I'll remove this accusation.

Has anybody gotten an interest payment yet?  How much did you get per BTC?

Just bought a MoneyPak from camolist.  Excellent and quick transaction with great communication!  I will definitely buy from him again.

There is a lot of talk about ROI on the mining speculation sub forum.

Slightly off subject, but would it be possible to create a cryptocurrency where the hashing could serve a benefit?  Like getting ???coin for running a program similar to folding@home (http://folding.stanford.edu/) or world community grid (http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/) or even SETI@home (http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/).

I'm greedy and interested BTC because I believe there could be profit for me.  But I think of all the money spent, electricity used and hash power of the network and it would be cool to see it going towards improving something.

Very informative thread.  Thanks!

Thanks for the link.  I was considering all ASICs, not just BFL.  ASICMiner, Avalon, etc. and all the new companies starting up like KnCMiner, Terrahash, etc.

I was curious about how the entire BTC hash/s will be affected by all the ASICs coming online and what kind of difficulty could be expected in the future.  According to the bitcoin wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Difficulty), the network hash rate is calculated with the following equation:
Network hash/s = Difficulty * 2**32 /600

Rounding to the nearest Thash/s, the current difficulty level shows 112 Thash/s in the entire BTC network.
The next difficulty increase is estimated to be around 19.5 million which means that the BTC network will have 140Thash/s (an increase of 28Thash/s in 2 weeks!!)

There's no way to know for sure how many ASICs will ship in the coming months so I took a wild guess as to how big the ASIC market is.  Let's say every single registered bitcointalk member gets a 10Ghash/s miner for themselves.  There are just over 126000 members so that would add 1260 Thash/s to the network.  An additional 1260 Thash/s would push the difficulty up to 192 million.

I went to a bitcoin profit calculator (http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/) and plugged in some numbers.  Lets say I bought 2 BFL 5GH/s miners for a total of $550 (not saying I'd buy from these guys, it was just an easy starting point).  To make it simple I made the conversion rate 100 USD/BTC, "free electricity" and kept the default profitability decline (0.61).  The break even is 248 days.  That's less than a year to recoup a modest investment without considering the current difficulty rate is 10 times less than my estimation.

Could there be enough room in the market for everybody?  I understand that every assumption above is a wild guess, but it seems like there could still be profit in the future by mining.

What do you guys think?

Also, let me know if my calculations are out of whack or if I haven't communicated the information in an understandable manner

Do you mean something like this?

1. I find currency, in general, very interesting.  I also like messing around with computers.
2. I wish there was an easier way to purchase bitcoins.
