If you didnt order a BFL ASIC pre-May2013, just wait for their 2nd generation, which will be a lot better.

^ Good post, interesting. But what about newer ASICs which are faster, cheaper, and more efficient in terms of mh/joule?

Why do you need HDMI?
its called Teamviewer bro

Ripple is a joke, please do not compare it to Litecoin, it really just makes you look clueless: http://ripplescam.org/Litecoin provides real value and will ride BTC all they way to the top. Ripple will be gone in a year or two. Its a bad idea that nobody needs.

Ive gotten my best results by far using this pool for anyone who is considering trying it.
Also, the stats and graphs are great, I feel like this is the only site I need and I will be here for a while.

That cool, too bad I missed it when I switched when give me ltc was having issues.
I got terrible luck and very few coins in my short stint here...

The NSA devices must be fine tuned to Double SHA256 calculations to have even remote chance doing 51% attack on Bitcoin. And this will be one-shot wonder weapon.
I really hope Im wrong and Im sure Im not the first person to consider this. Also, a 1 billion dollar market cap currency isnt a threat to the dollar. But what about 10 billion? 100billion? 1 trillion? 10 trillion? When do they decide to pull the trigger, if they could? Why cant they just write Bitcoin hashing code for their existing code breaking machines, fork the chain, invalidate all our coins, and then go back to hacking your Facebook to learn grandma's secret pie crust recipe?

LINK TO WIRED ARTICLE: http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2012/03/ff_nsadatacenter/all/Im dont have a degree in computer science and couldnt do any calculations even if we had real numbers about just how powerful the NSA's combined hashing power is, but given the scale and rate of development of massively parallel computing power the NSA has developed for code breaking, and given that they employ thousands of the smartest and best programmers and cryptographers in the world, and given that they have an unlimited budget, its seems obvious to me that the US Gov could have the NSA 51% attack any coin at any time. They have machines which make your Avalon look like a Casio watch from 1980. Sorry for the downer, and hey at least Bitcoins have bounced back a little today. But to me this seems to be by far the biggest threat to Bitcoin and all the altcoins. Sorry if this has been posted or discussed here before, I did a quick search but didnt find much. "the agency has not finished building at Oak Ridge, nor is it satisfied with breaking the petaflop barrier. Its next goal is to reach exaflop speed, one quintillion (1018) operations a second, and eventually zettaflop (1021) and yottaflop."

Im fairly confident the NSA can 51% any coin they want to at anytime. " he agency has not finished building at Oak Ridge, nor is it satisfied with breaking the petaflop barrier.

They'll still list LTC soon enough. It will generate tons of trades which equals revenue for them, which they are gonna need to settle their lawsuit.

ITS PROBLEM

I am just extremely skecptical that this coin was listed without some serious "favor," e.g. "a donation" from the developers of FTC.
There is just NO WAY that this coin has a widespread enough acceptance to make it onto BCT-e by popular demand already.
This swarm of alts just doesnt sit right with me, I do think we need an array of coins but we need innovative ones, not copy/paste pump-n-dumps.
