but how many 100 watt or 200 watt or 300 watt miners are running
avalon on medium speed is 100 watts.
I will run my two until they break. but that is about 210 watts and 7th
even if a million do it it is 7,000,000 th or 7,000. ph or 7. eh
the interesting thing is will we get the 100 million people level doing this.
if we do it could really help btc down the road.
stopped mining gpu/fpga coins when eth went pos. sold that shit for corn. i do miss the hum haha. but i did i mined btc on gpu/fpga in 2011/2012 and even continued at a slight loss. guess what, those btc coins i mined at a slight loss are where probably 60 percent of my stack today came from. because i kept mining. wasnt worrying about the money, btc was cool thats all i needed. of course i did folding at home which where multi gpu rigs just for funziesi for free so i was used to power bills and such. so i said all that to say this: but i still have a dedicated 20amp outlet that i can run derated at what 16 amps. and as long as they are somewhat quiet i might still give a go. i think many small miners that can be used in basements and garages etc are the way to go. Biggest mistake of my life -- not mining back in the day. Total anonymity and tons of fresh, untainted coins to be had for practically nothing. I did some F@H at the time, GPUs number-crunching @ 100*C, not regretting it, always nice to contribute to science. I remember I did try to set up a Bitcoin miner back in 2010/11, but it was a complex (for me) Linux setup process and I wasn't so good at it back then. Gave up. Should have tried harder... It's still so mind-boggling to me, that, back in 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz was able to mine 35,000 BTC in two months, and added another 80,000 BTC soon after. Saylor-level quantities available to anyone smart enough to recognize and willing to embrace the opportunity. Not really complaining though. I try not be too greedy and be happy with what I have. It could have been much, much worse. Just imagine a no-coiner today. Esp. one that knew and understood it all when it was happening, but did nothing. This must be a hell of a mental pressure to be able to live with...

I'm living with relatives right now (not for money reasons) so not mining but otherwise I would run a miner if only for nostalgia's sake. I wouldn't run dozens though, DCA is a better idea. Also mining in France if following all the rules is a hassle, you need to create a business, you'll pay tons of taxes... It's not worth it at the best of times.

Those who did are now enjoying their rightful riches. Just see BitcoinTalk's donator list: https://bitcointalk.org/donate.htmlI quickly went through it. I don't know anyone I think I've heard of MemoryDealers (is he some famous guy? Roger Ver comes to mind) from the 50 BTC tier, and only two (our very own OgNasty, and rpietila) from the 10 BTC tier. Edit: added OgNasty to the 10 BTC tier list of nicks I know/recognize.

With a super lot of money seem to come super lot of problems. Lots of people desire the wealth of say Britney Spears = Mental case Michael Jackson = Even worse mental case and died at 50 Now the likes of Taylor Swift = Works super hard, hardly has time to herself outside of work, remains to be seen if she can live a normal life and enjoy her billions into her 40s, 50s and beyond. But all of that is still Mickey Mouse assets compared to the likes of Michael Saylor, Elon Musk and Denise Coates of Bet 365. The latter may be in the best position as hardly anyone talks about her. The way she makes money however is perhaps the worst out of all of these celebs: from gambling addictions from mostly poor people. I would never have turned down 100 or 1000 BTC obviously but my wealth and just sheer resources / health compared I'm probably already in the top 3% or so of the world. So I guess, why complain? There is always going to be someone better off money wise but probably not time wise. I can sit here at home, fart about, talk to a bunch of guys about BTC online. 20-30 years ago I would have been busting my ass in an office. 200-300 years ago I would have been in a mine breathing in coal dust. 2000-3000 years ago I would have been lucky to survive child birth. 20,000-30,000 years ago I would have been lucky to survive child birth and if I did probably been boiled alive in a cauldron in a bizarre religious ceremony.

With a super lot of money seem to come super lot of problems. That's the balance in life Getting more of one thing means you getting less of another. Living a comfortable and stable life with my family beats fame and wealth. Even if one has all the wealth in the world Doesnt guarantee a wholesome family and Old age These are quite underrated in recent times. Not gonna say no to more money, but more like a bonus to the aforementioned.

if we do it could really help btc down the road.
stopped mining gpu/fpga coins when eth went pos. sold that shit for corn. i do miss the hum haha. but i did i mined btc on gpu/fpga in 2011/2012 and even continued at a slight loss. guess what, those btc coins i mined at a slight loss are where probably 60 percent of my stack today came from. because i kept mining. wasnt worrying about the money, btc was cool thats all i needed. of course i did folding at home which where multi gpu rigs just for funziesi for free so i was used to power bills and such. so i said all that to say this: but i still have a dedicated 20amp outlet that i can run derated at what 16 amps. and as long as they are somewhat quiet i might still give a go. i think many small miners that can be used in basements and garages etc are the way to go. Biggest mistake of my life -- not mining back in the day. Total anonymity and tons of fresh, untainted coins to be had for practically nothing. I did some F@H at the time, GPUs number-crunching @ 100*C, not regretting it, always nice to contribute to science. I remember I did try to set up a Bitcoin miner back in 2010/11, but it was a complex (for me) Linux setup process and I wasn't so good at it back then. Gave up. Should have tried harder... It's still so mind-boggling to me, that, back in 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz was able to mine 35,000 BTC in two months, and added another 80,000 BTC soon after. Saylor-level quantities available to anyone smart enough to recognize and willing to embrace the opportunity. Not really complaining though. I try not be too greedy and be happy with what I have. It could have been much, much worse. Just imagine a no-coiner today. Esp. one that knew and understood it all when it was happening, but did nothing. This must be a hell of a mental pressure to be able to live with... I first heard about BTC around 2013. I remember reading a post here around then (just lurking) about someone spending 50 BTC on some regular coffee he was buying. ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) 50 BTC. I'd fricking give up coffee for the rest of my life for an extra 5BTC added to my stash. Luckily for me the top of 2013 was higher (with all the hype in the media back then) than I eventually and finally bought into some years later. Wait, wait, wait... what's this about giving up coffee? Not for all the tea in China!
