Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Methods of getting free electricity

I am in the USA. I am wondering what ways there are to get free electricity.
While you are unlikely to find "free electricity" in any significant quantity if you are looking for large scale hosting we offer the lowest prices in the world and we're located right next door in Canada. If you're curious you can check out our website @ www.greatnorthdata.com and contact us for more information. Sent them an email out of curiosity, their rates are very respectful @ $63/khw/mo month to month too They were very responsive ... but a huge red flag went up when I was told I would be unable to access my rigs remotely. =( Im not sure if thats the norm in ASIC hosting but... the ones Ive looked into all offered remote access control of my miner. In short, its very uncomfortable being told I would have no way to tell if my equipment was mining or not.

Umm... mining when the price shoots through the roof and the difficulty plummets after the mining reward halves to zero; but would still be profitable for those who stay plugged in. If BTC goes mainstream and there are millions of transactions a day, you'll see fees per block being $100+. Honestly, I still have a BFL 50 GH/s unit in a box for the future.
Price is never gonna go through the roof, sorry to burst ur bubble. Its never going mainstream. Its not trustless like claimed.

Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: How to use BTCchip / HW.1 hardware smartcard w/ electrum?
|

I wiped my BTCchip, downloaded latest electrum, fired it up, selected hardware wallet -> BTCchip -> "NEXT" and electrum just disappears. Nothing ever happens after that =( Help?
BTChip and Ledger Nano, the plugin supplied by Electrum is not enough, you also have to install the necessary libraries from Github: e.g. /LedgerHQ/btchip-python, /trezor/cython-hidapi and pyusb. Follow the install instructions in each repo On windows even?

OP ... thats an extremely shortsighted statement! What are you gonna say when ur talkin to someone and they ask "well where can I use it, spend it?" ... "oh theres a few places".....
Think long term dude, u want to be able to say "EVERYWHERE!"
Being able to state the latter encourages consumer adoption and thats what Bitcoin needs is consumer demand. Among other things... lol

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][BURST] Burst | Efficient HDD Mining | New 1.2.2 Automated Transactions

Price is in a stalemate because there are no announcements for weeks now. It would be nice to hear how development is going... The Crowdfund was successful, so some further information is appropriate. "ATDevelopmentFund The purpose of this case is to provide funding to help extend the technical work and general product development and marketing for AT inside the burst platform." Making it a good time to buy... better to buy when nobody else is buying and sell when they are buying exactly. BURST is nowhere near it's final price. Anything around this price is a steal. Also, ByteEnterprises has been delaying our announcement because we wanted everything to be closer to final before release. But we believe everyone will be interested in our Asset announcement that will be coming very soon. Yeah unforunately its the other way around, hence why its just another pump n dump coin. More people are jumping on the bandwagon of mining it and just flooding the exchange, hence the price will keep going down. Its final price is much lower, like all alts.
