usb

hi just a quick questions, i am looking on ebay right now for miners, and see lots of the usb "block eruptors" are these just regular usb things like memory sticks?

do i just plug it in and my laptop will start mining?
can these mine all types of coins? because i know mining bitcoins on a laptop with one block eruptor might be pointless

also i see lots and lots of BUTTERFLY LABS Jalapeno 7.25 GH/s ASIC Bitcoin Miners IN HAND give or take a few GH/s all going for 500 to 700 dollars, i didnt think that log of GH/s would even make 1 bitcoin, but im still new so i could be wrong

one more thing, i see some people selling 100,000 Infinite Coin IFC for like 10 to 15 dollars, seems like a good investment with little loss if they never go up

one one more thing, lol, i see lots of 1,000MH/s 1.0GH/s ASIC BITCOIN MINER 48 HOUR CONTRACT, with all different ranges, some 200 gh/s are they safe? or worth it, the 1 gh/s was 15 dollars for 2 days mining

thanks again sorry for all the questions

none of the items you pick are that good.

I will choose to believe you are new.

Next question is how much money are you willing to lose?

do not kid yourself this is a really high risk market. that said do you have any questions on how to start?

First get a btc address.

https://blockchain.info/

https://blockchain.info/wallet

once you get this let us know you have it. takes some time to make one the program needs to be downloaded.

https://blockchain.info/address/1Fo2K52Rz7LZw9fcF5BDdDBjfNaViQ8J3x

this is my address. once you have that address you can go to a simple mining site like this one.

https://bitminter.com/

you can also go to a site like this one

cex.io

if you click my referral link I get a bonus or you can join by goggling the site.

all of the above is kind of needed to do.

then you can buy a stick or 2.

here is a link to a pretty good seller he takes paypal

his usb sticks will come in about 5 days and they will hash at 5x to 7 x that of a bock eruptor his prices will be lower then ebay.

good luck

with a current rate basic calculator. one of those 222MH minors will get you 7-8$ a year.....................................

So you decide if it's worth it..

at todays cost.rate your 10 years to break even..

These sold for 14$ at launch so the current boom has drivin cost up for the idiots on ebay.

so.. No.

well they did not sell for 14$ at launch they sold for 250$ in april

and they mine at 333mh not 222mh.

but the rest is true they are not worth the prices people are asking. in fact I purchased many as low as $6.90 then the boom hit and the price on them went nuts.

It is really hard to get gh power cheaply unless you spend serious money. he could buy some here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=328135.msg3839917#msg3839917

1 share is 41 mh 100 shares are 4-4.1 gh just about .135 to .140 btc

which is about 133 usd to 138 usd.

this may be the best mining contract he can get. as it is lifetime (1-2 years) as long as it hashes in the black.

if he buys today he gets 1gh for about 34 usd . no work just watch the coins come in.

as for the $14 I went off what im seeing now.

the 222 was a typing mistake. 333 is what i meant.

I have done worse typos..

as for the op this is not an easy game to get into. a lot of flat crooks and liars. people do not know whom to trust.

thanks for all the info, right now i was just looking at mining from a laptop until i get home, so i can learn more before i buy a miner when i get home to usa, i allready have a block chain wallet for bitcoins, but cant figure out how to make a wallet for altcoins like infinitcoin...

when i do get home, i dont mind paying 5k to 10k for a miner

thanks again for your help
