1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER S4 2TH/s, Batch 1 on Sale this week, shipping before Sept. Ends on: September 25, 2014, 12:59:59 AM
It's clear that they are trying to discourage hardware ownership for the individual so that they can develop their more profitable cloud mining project. If they raise the price of the hardware they peddle it will push more people to their cloud product. Any way you cut it, its just a money move for them.. They can't be happy with taking a small profit on product development and sales, they want it all. so it is a clear case of greed in my opinion .


At the price they are charging for their cloud mining and then add the fee for "obtaining' the right to farm with them (whatever that fee they call it) , I believe it comes out even worse than if you bought the S4 now.

Has anyone calculated the ROI for their hashnest? When I ran numbers the first day they put it out, it wasn't looking good at all and was hoping the S4 would be the answer. I got my answer
alright!
2  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [5000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: September 12, 2014, 12:31:52 AM
If I were to guess, this is a taste of what's to come over the next 2 days.

I think it's the solar storms hitting (coronal mass ejection) as we had a real strong one on the 10th which would put the
time to get here from today through the next 2 days. I am willing to bet all the pools from all the different people
in the world are having the same problems. Probably lines and routers blown out at key routes to overseas locations.


But...that's just a guess...lol.
3  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Help needed on Block Erupter Cube... on: February 09, 2014, 06:31:03 AM
Hello all,
I'm new here and wanted to ask some of you pros about errors that I have been
getting using the cube. I'm using the proxy_miner.exe as well. I have it set up
so it's on port 3333 (bitcoin on BTC Guild) Below I have some data (edited) from the
output. I have been working on this for over 20 hours and have changed out the cube
itself 3 times, as well as 3 different routers, and 4 different computers all running Windows XP.

All virus and firewall protection is turned off. The routers internal firewall is turned off as well.
No matter what I do, I always get the same errors that are being shown here. If anyone has
any idea I would love to hear it!
