Is that even possible?

Found this ebay auction:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1000-Bitcoins-one-thousand-bitcoin-/181120294757?pt=UK_Coins_World_RL&hash=item2a2b9c5f65

That works out a £109 a day. Unless they had a server farm, is using that much electricity possible?

(i smell slight scam on that advert, something doesnt feel right about it)
The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

That's what I thought. Charging 70k Sterling to your cc will probably initiate a phone call though Tongue

Probably like winning the lottery with better chances honestly  Cheesy
