What games actually award Bitcoins to users? I know there were some Minecraft servers that did, but the only Minecraft server I know of that uses Bitcoins (Bitquest) hasn't been awarding emeralds (bits) to players for weeks.

if you want to gain something by playing it is better to look at hypercoin, they support minecrast too, and many other game, but i doubt you can play those well with  toaster  Cheesy

that toster thing isn't something new, i remember they said you can play with the commodore too or any other old devices, like very old 8 bit ibm machine

Can you mine bitcoins with a toaster? NO you can't!

If you define "mining" like that, you can also mine without a toaster only by sleeping (when somebody pays you for that in BTC)

I kind of felt the video is real in the beginning but towards the end I am almost certain it is fake. It is hard enough to get a printer to work, and this dude managed to simply "plug and play" a toaster, complete with a "toast" command. I call fake.

Hmm the topic subject looks like forum clickbait to me.

I was led to believe that this was some kind of proof-of-achitecture mining from some kind of expensive toast, what I actually found was a tenuous link to Bitcoin :/

How to mod any toaster to control pc games in 3 easy steps



Now that your toaster(s) is/are configured, simply play Minecraft or any other game that awards bitcoins.

Happy mining!

Great idea... though the last video does not look convincing. Which toaster is moving the person? I believe its a video played only. Though i wonder if the toaster can be really configured that way or if the video is made up completely.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

Of course it is fake.

I bet, you already sent money to the nigerian prince, while saying "Im not so much into these things to be able to judge it. Tongue" ...

What I find hilarious about this post is that it goes both ways....
You can actually toast some bread with your miner,
you just simply put your toast bread on top of it while it's hashing Shocked Shocked Shocked
toasted bread in minutes Wink

This is pretty funny, mainly for how impractical it would be to mine bitcoins with a toaster. It is funny to imagine. But, playing video games/mining with a toaster is a very unique idea and I have not heard about it before. Thanks for sharing.
