Help Me!

Hey everyone!

I was going to buy 3 USB Erupters for 150$ and I need to know if this will ever give me profit.

I would have about 1GH/s but with the rising difficulty and the more powerful mining rigs in the market, i wonder if i would ever see my money back. I want to do this mostly in case the bitcoin value raises a lot.

I heard about the next gen rigs with 28nm chips and I was wondering when they would lower the prices. I obviously can't spend 4000$+ in my first investment.

Thanks everyone!

Dude.  If you buy 5 you can get it for 0.12 BTC each from friedcat + shipping, your offer is way too overpriced and I would love to rip you off ^_^

[Hardman]

Agreed! Don't buy from someone trying to make a huge profit

Who is friedcat? I keep on hearing this name.

He's the founder of AsicMiner, one of the most successful ASIC companies. Here are two threads:

No, you won't get your money back. But you may have some fun, and learn about cryptocurrencies. How much is that worth?

Don't buy at the price you mentioned. Look for a group buy in your own country.

I run some mining hardware not because im making profit with it (i wont with electricity prices here), but because it decentralizes and strengthens the bitcoin network.

The price i mentioned (150$) includes shipping (that is a lot because i'm from europe). It would be almost the same as if i bought them directly from the US. But thanks anyway. I think that the fact that everyone tells me not to do it gives me a pretty idea of the profit I will make. Absolutely none.

What about the 5GH BFL? does it worth it? i heard it takes ages for them to ship the units.

If you are in Europe the distributor is xyt, I think his current price is BTC0.17 for 1 USB stick. OutCast3k is the best agent in UK. I'm not sure about other countries.

NO - JUST NO

Likely will never return the amount of BTC you will have if you just buy with the cash you have.

150 is way to much. It will take a long time to break even
