Hello i am a bitcoin newbie . Mining with a 5750 , been at it for about 1 and a half months . did ten years or so of seti@home then world community grid so i decided to give this a try. Mostly i am a lurker , in and just reading trying to learn. I have zero programming skills but i found mining to be fairly straight forward. I really like the idea of mining bitcoins and as long as there are bitcoins i will probably mine them or some fork if it looks promising.i have been running a machine 24/7 for better than ten years now processing for seti and wcg and i don't see that changing anytime soon , just a new processing task. I plan to get a better video card and possibly a second machine. The apartment i rent includes the price of electricity so i personally don't pay extra for it so it is feasible for me to keep mining. Hopefully bitcoins have brought in an era where an average computer guy can cover some of his computing costs by putting his machine to work an earn a few bux. I was selling the coins on ebay but had several problems with buyers . I have sold on ebay trouble free for two years and in two weeks two different people claimed unauthorized access to there accounts in order to get a refund from paypal for bitcoins . Seems bitcoins attracts some wascals so now i am using the canadian bitcoin exchange.
www.cavirtex.com I have not had many dealing with them so far but i deposited and bought a few coins and sold a few coins and withdrew money no problem.
The bitcoin forum is very impressive i have never really noticed so much support when i was doing seti and it is very inspiring that bitcoins have motivated so many people. Hopefully all of this will be around for a lo0ng time i find it very entertaining all around.
Thanks to all for making it all possible including showing up here to post
