1  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [5000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff on: August 23, 2014, 10:28:58 AM
Hi Guy's I joined the pool a little over a week ago, starting with my GPU and bought my first Antminer U2 yesterday.. i get that my measly 2.2gh/sec is nothing on your setup's but looking at my esitmated 0.00000849 BTC per block, if i was to purchase say 9 more U2's would my estimated rise 9 fold? This is purely hobby fascination project lol... I'm only snapping up U2's which people are selling as no more interest in there hobby anymore to reduce outlay... as i find this mining hobby quite a good thing to follow and take part in....
Now i have also found a community as well Cheesy

Hi Guys

I have been looking at the BTC project for a while now and decided to start small...
I started with a GPU generating 227mh/sec running with 7 days with minimal failures earning a total of 0.00002243 BTC. I'm connected to the Slushy pool.

I have now purchased a Antminer U2+, using bfgminer 5.xxxx and i'm currently running at average of 2.3gh/sec from my basic calculations this does give me approx 20x more hashes.

Obviously if i'm going to invest in further hardware is it worth progressing with AM U2's using a USB hub, is it a worthy project, and how do i know when my calulations fail on BFGminer? I have the command prompt but can only decipher a few details.

I know starting a project like this is not profitable but an interesting "potential" investment for the future.
