Hi All,

I've been looking around for a comparison of the different mining options, I've found bits here and there but looking for something more complete.

Can anyone recommend a site or page that compares using hardware in your home to paying someone to host it - like KnC are doing - compared to cloudhashing?

Thanks

Ben

Pick whichever one provides:
cheaper electricity
more security

Also, i think buying shares in mining companies like labcoin are better than "mining contracts", you can get dividends, and trade shares etc

There is no right or wrong here, spread your investment - There are some good opportunities to buy a share in a hashing machine in the Group Buys (most are preorder so hashing may start in 2014).

For me nothing beats the little green flashes of a home USB Asic cluster, relaxing to watch :-)
