I'm looking to purchase a LEPA 1600W PSU, or any other decent quality PSU that's capable of outputting 1300W or more. The PSU would be shipped to Canada, and my budget is $200 USD shipped. I remember seeing LEPA 1600W units sell for ~ $150 a few months ago, and ideally if someone was willing to part for a LEPA 1600W unit around that price it would be perfect. Or, if you have a server PSU set up for mining capable of over 1300W I'd probably be interested in that as well. I'm happy using a trusted escrow, but if for whatever reason you don't want to, I request that you send the unit up front, and I'll send the payment after verifying everything works as should. Let me know if you have a PSU you're willing to part with for around that price!

I'll send you a PM in a moment, hopefully we can sort something out!

I'm looking to purchase a Raspberry Pi 2 and case. My budget is $40 USD shipped to Canada. Let me know if you have a Pi 2 and case you're interested to sell and we'll take it from there. I'd like to pay via bitcoin, and request that the seller either send the items up front, and then I pay upon receiving, or we use a trusted escrow instead. If you have any questions either post here or PM me, and I'll get back to you. I'd be willing to pay a little extra if an SD card is included as well.

I was able to verify the message. Try using this instead:


make sure the message formatting is correct when pasted into whatever you're using to verify. At first, Electrum didn't verify it correctly until I fixed the formatting.

Here's a proof image, if it helps at all that it verified for me: https://i.imgur.com/M7p1dcm.png

Campaign is currently full, but I'd have to deny you anyways due to poor post quality.

Pick an escrow out of this list. You shouldn't trust escrow providers who come to you for work, because it seems often times that attracts people with very little or no trust, which defeats the point of escrow. The escrow is supposed to be a trusted middleman.

Like hilariousandco and --Encrypted-- mentioned, it says why you were banned right on the top of that screenshot you provided. It's also clear to me that you were spamming for signature campaign payouts, your post quality is terrible. If you don't want to get banned again, increase your post quality.

I was just able to completely read through this thread (took awhile but definitely interesting) and I have to side with DjVoodo on this one. turtlehurricane/theturtleisalive, like it's been mentioned before, it would be far easier to trust your side of the story if you can provide some proof of sending the gold back. Anything really, a tracking number, receipt, email correspondence with Amazon, or let a trusted escrow into your Amazon account to verify that the order status is "Returned", "Return in progress", or something similar to that.

Also, I'm sure I wasn't the only one to see the copy-paste spam posts you were making yesterday to bump up over a dozen old threads involving Quickseller. I think a ban for that was totally justified, because this forum has rules against spamming. I don't believe your banning had anything to do with Quickseller, but rather breaking forum rules that you should have known (you're a Hero member so you've been here awhile, you should have known the rules).

You said a few posts back that you'd call Amazon in the morning and receive proof of returning the gold that you weren't supposed to receive. Did you ever end up doing that? Right now it looks like you posted that message, went on a spamming spree about Quickseller, and then received a ban on your main account. In the last couple of posts this thread has really gone downhill, good luck with making your new forum and all but I'm sure if you are able to provide solid proof that you returned the coin to Amazon, or are in the process of doing so, Quickseller will rethink his rating (I talked to him about this and he told me this). I suspect that your ban is temporary, so providing proof of shipping the coin back is in your best interest. You could have the red flair removed from your account and just move on with things.

He could probably add an option for a fancier image like that. I like how it is now, because like prodigy8 said, it uses very little ink when being printed compared to your suggested design.

Sure, I'll aim to send you a PM with the posts I didn't count in the next couple hours. I'm a bit busy right now but you should see a PM later today.

 No worries, thanks for your participation!

I should reword that rule. Basically in short, you'll be paid for the member group you started your month as, not the group you end the month as. However, once you're paid, users can apply again for an open slot for their new member group.

So if you start your month as a Full Member and end a Senior Member, you'll be paid 0.07 BTC for 50 constructive posts, which is the Full Member rate. However, when your payment is sent out, you can definitely apply for a Senior slot if one is open. If not, I'm usually willing to sign users up for a lower paying slot, and move them to a higher paying one, if one opens up.

Looks like all ranks minus staff had their prices all dropped by 0.0001 BTC per post.

I'd add BitMixer to that list as well. I've never heard of people having issues with BitMixer, plus they seem to have a fairly active presence here on the forums.

I'm not shilling for Ethereum or trying to slander BURST, I was just mentioning that "if you have a couple spare GPU's (Ethereum) might be worth looking into" and that I didn't think BURST was a very profitable coin to mine. Take a look at my post history, I've never mentioned Ethereum before either, I was just saying that I've heard Ethereum is a profitable coin to mine.

Also, I'm not sure how you figure BURST mining is profitable either. According to this calculator, you'd be making about 0.011 BTC per month if you used a 3 TB hard drive (so your initial cost would be ~ $85 USD, and that's a very conservative estimate as well). 0.011 BTC per month would barely cover the power cost of running an efficient BURST mining setup (let's say an RPi + HDD, that would take about 10 watts), but just for fun let's say that you aren't paying power costs. With an income of 0.011 BTC per month ($2.55 USD) it would take you 33 months to pay off your investment of just the hard drive. Keep in mind that this would be on a super efficient setup as well. If you pay power, and run the hard drive for BURST mining in a desktop, you wouldn't make any money because of power costs. A desktop would take ~ 40W (conservative estimate again), which would cost more than $2.55 USD to run for a month in most areas in North America. Please correct me if any of my numbers are off, but they should be fairly accurate.

It's great that BURST completed a cross-chain transfer, did everything without funding, and barely uses hard drives, etc, etc but I wasn't talking about what the coins accomplished, I was talking about what coins are profitable for mining.

If the funds are sent through friends and family you can transfer money through PayPal. VirosaGITS could use that method (without having problems) if he's receiving money from his friend.

Where you able to figure the problem out, or are you still having it?

I don't know if NiceHash offers the feature of switching pools partway through a rental (although I suspect they do - it's a pretty standard feature) but they do offer pointing to a pool of your choice, so you aren't stuck with mining straight bitcoin.

I do know though that MiningRigRentals and BetaRigs both allow renters to mine anything SHA-256 that they want, and allow renters to change pool configurations partway through a rental.

There's a thread where you can download it and run it yourself, but if you don't want to do that you can use it here: http://bitcoins.net.in/get_activity.php

You can mine whatever coin you want with your rental, as long as it's an SHA-256 coin (or whatever algorithm you decide to rent). You have full control over where the miners are pointed, and in my experience you can also decide to change where the miners are mining whenever you like during the rental time.

There are a bunch of different sites you can use if you're looking to rent some miners out.

Some examples are BetaRigs, NiceHash and MiningRigRentals. However if you're looking for a contract type service I'd recommend contacting NiceHash and asking about a contract. I think they'd be the best to organize a longer term contract (1-3 months) with.
