$15,750!?  To me, that says "Hi.  I'm Cointerra.  I'm only interested in talking to you if you have a TON of money laying around for an asic."

Anybody with any real interest in the bitcoin community would be willing to serve all customers, not just wealthy ones.

This is a very unfortunate mistake you are making.  It obviously only benefits very few with deep pockets, it is an absolute disgrace to the bitcoin community as a whole.  It has no value whatsoever to low-end consumers (miners) - the very people that brought bitcoin into existence.  What a horrible business model, nothing more than a quick exploit for big profits.

If you are interested, have a look at a company who serves the entire community:  AsicMiner (friedcat) has everything from low-end USB sticks to blades.  Something for everyone.  (You'll figure out after you fail that "something for everyone" was something you've overlooked while you were blinded by huge hash rates selling for tons of money)

Will it make you happy knowing that so many out there would love to own a product like this, but that you've completely priced most of them out?  You deserve to fail, miserably.

And here is a calculator that will help explain how much they'll end up losing on that deal:

In about 4 months, that thing is a large Avalon paperweight.  Sucker born every minute.

 

(bump)

Seriously though, I'm glad you are able to cut some of the losses.  I sincerely hope someone will give you a premium price for it.

I would accept the 65BTC offer NOW before the buyer does the math and finds out they're going to lose big time on this 

It's not your fault.  Do you remember who made money during the gold rush?  Those who sold shovels.

If you truly want to sell it, I would take the 60BTC offer.  The alternative is to continue mining and hope the price of BTC goes through the roof, or use it to mine an alt sha256 coin, etc.  Once the 60BTC offer notices the current BTC difficulty, you'll have a hard time finding a replacement offer, so do act fast one way or the other - all in my humble opinion.

That is what I was responding to...

Anyhow, you've found up-to-date pricing so that is all well and good.

Personally, with a current difficulty of 50+ million and "next" difficulty to again skyrocket, I would not be purchasing these USB paperweights with the intention of even recovering the cost of your investment.  Maybe they're wanted for novelty purposes.  Also see other threads where Avalons are now selling in the 30BTC - 40BTC range, for those interested.  It is what it is.

Happy mining 

These can be purchased brand new for 0.38BTC/each.

Not trying to spoil the parade, but just noting it.

Fwiw, I'd like to give TerraHash some time to get organized before dropping the judgement hammer.  There are a lot of good detectives in this forum that have seen many scams.  Trying to pull a scam involving illegitimate physical addresses would be a non-starter, considering that they've went as far as inviting people to visit.

Want to get the real story on their physical whereabouts and up-to-date information on lease agreements?

Option 1:  Search the internet, find some pictures, raise huge speculative red flags.
Option 2:  Send them an e-mail and ask them questions.  Post the results (or lack thereof) in the forum to promote/destroy their credibility.

Earlier on they mentioned that they are too busy being productive to deal with FUD/trolling. Lack of regular forum responses to some of the previous replies seems consistent with this.

Best case scenario, at this moment:  They continue working on providing great ASIC products and services, and working on leasing space i.e. imgur.com pics.
Worst case scenario, at this moment:  We admire cool DX pencil drawings and other artistic novelties, and continue watching other groups push on with real ASIC development.

I sincerely wish TerraHash great success.  This is quite an undertaking, and I admire anyone with the guts to take it on.

Hello.  We run a business and have purchased thousands in MtGox funds through BitInstant.  We are very grateful for the service.  That being said, this order also shows as completed on BitInstant, but no funds transmitted.  We work with a lot of people that deal in bitcoins, and I would hate to have something like this ruin the past successes we've had with BitInstant.

Please assist.

[EDIT] Seth from customer service just let me know that there was a coupon code to redeem.  I had no idea.  I totally feel dumb now.   

Thanks!

Good questions.  I am not affiliated with it.

Here is what I learned, in order to obtain the BTC for free, without getting spammed and such.

I always use a fresh/alternate e-mail address.  I definitely do not want spam.  For a phone number, I use google voice.  I obviously will not give them my personal cell number 

I avoid surveys, because they tend to "screen" me out.  I avoid downloads at all costs, they will infest your pc with bad things.  I go after the simple form submissions, in some case it's first name/last name/email.

Anyhow I grinded out several hundred points and put in a redeem request on their site, and received BTC.

Because I did not pay for any of this, I consider it a "free" way to get coins.  Also keep in mind I'm not trying to promote it, but I saw this thread and thought that the material may be appropriate.

As always use your best judgement everyone, and if this information is useful then I'm glad it may benefit you.

Peace,

Last week I had a transaction for the max on coinbase (10 BTC) - they took the funds, then waited till fulfillment day, then reversed the transaction and sent the funds back to the bank.

Beware.   

I heard that PayPal is now freezing accounts that sell BTC

doh!

 

Been reading this forum for a while myself, and finally signed up.

Glad to be here!

 

Hello all, I found a web site out there that gives away free bitcoins.  It's going to take a bit to explain this but I'll do my best and feel free to use your own judgement and opinions of course.

Anyway so here goes.

The web site is:  http://www.boozehoundpoker.com/

There is a section of the website that let you earn points.  You then redeem the points for BTC.  I've successfully redeemed for BTC and received it in about 30 minutes.

Also if you are into poker, these guys run a nightly Texas Holdem freeroll on the Seals With Clubs bitcoin poker web site, I think it is at 8 pm every night.

Check it out if you'd like, hope it might add to your free BTC collection!

Peace,
