That's one of the ones I've been watching.. best of luck. LMK if he doesn't pay. BTC in the long run will be worth it, wouldn't mind a mercury for the right price. Right now mining just sucks so hard. I could actually feel the strain of my miners with the difficulty hop this weekend.
My scrypt farm pays for itself and still turns coin profits, which I love. No heating bill this year for me lol. With only 75% of my farm online and with no windows open the house temperature reminds me of Djibouti lol. With windows open and fans directing 40F* at the racks, the house average is about 78F*. Very comfy!
I've been thinking of contracting out the scrypt mining to see if anyone wants to rent some hash power. I wonder if there'd be any interest.
