Trying to sell them for the lowest amount of lost money is no option?

They mine so little that imo it's pointless to mine with them on a pool and you should treat them as a lottery ticket and switch to solo mining. I have 10 and just let them do their thing, if I find a block, that's great, if not, I'm supporting the network albeit it's a very tiny contribution.

Good luck on trying to find a block. Do remember to take a screen shot and you will be famous Smiley

There have been a few posts on the forum about people mining a block with an erupter so, you never know! The cost to run 10 is nothing any way so might as well.

Base on the calculator, it would take few thousand of years to mine. But yeah when someone is lucky...

With 7? No, not a few thousand years. I run 10 and I think it was just over once every 10 years before the latest difficulty change - better odds than lotto.

Again, did you try factoring the Difficulty increment? in 10 years the difficulty might be 200 times of today's difficulty..

Use the 7 thumbs on cex.io as you will need massive amount of hash to follow up. I am using that one to speed up for a while.

Go for POT on ozcoin. There you will have best of the two worlds. Pool mining combined with luck when solo mining.
