Block Erupter is worth it?

[Broskev]

Hello, I have 62 block erupters for 620 $. Should I start mine with them or sell them? I know, that there are many questions like this, but I will be happy if somebody would respond on mine question.

That's around 20GH with all those, I would sell them.

I have recently given my thoughts in a recent post, about six lines down.

I realise the numbers are not exactly like yours, but believe me your numbers would work out similar, if not worse.

Take the advise from a number of members and sell ASAP.

No matter how cheap block erupter is, just don't buy it unless its close to free. Because block erupter isn't efficient at all. 7.5 Watt per GH/s just suck so bad...

[beegatewood]

NO please, just no.... you can buy if you just wanna try it out and intended not to make money..

I never really understood why anyone would have bought Block Erupters to begin with. They have always been way overpriced and setting them up and mining with them is such a hastle.

Because it's such a hastle, that makes it fun.

I bought one so in the future I can show it to my grandkids and be like "yeah, I had a machine that printed money"

mine November (after the difficulty will be too high) and sell them before they become  worthless .

Thats overpriced, sell it while it still have value or you can just use it to have some fun

If it's brand new, then sell it. If you have already used then just use it for mining while waiting selling it

mining with them is such a hastle.

How is it?  Plug in to USB hub, run bfgminer.  That's it.

Unless you've got the IT skills of a wet sandwich, it couldn't be any easier...

Its hassle, as for me I don't even know which problem needed to run....

Just sold 10 of my Block Erupters. Got £99 for the 10 of them.  Not so bad, I guess, they mined a lot in their 6 months, mostly alt coins.  I have one remaining. 

[mrhelpful]

I`m suprised that most still have the block erupters. More power to you friend.

[ScaryHash]

Mine are still mining.

I figure, why go through the hassle of trying to sell them, and when BTC hits $500, they will actually be profitable.

Just keep mining, be happy.

or you could buy bitcoins now to the value of the electricity you're paying, to have the same affect.

[fizzmine]

Just buying bitcoins isn't fun though   Mine at a fee-free pool and cut out the middleman anyway!  Heck there's still people CPU mining just because they can.

More miners = stronger network = better long term valuation of existing bitcoins.

[DPoS]
