Hi everyone,

I'm new to bitcoin mining. I bought mining material from www.bifuryminers.com since I found it cheaper and same quality than cryptostore.

Now, I need a bit of help to get it started the good way. I read some tutorial here and over the net, but I'm not sure how to activated it the right way! Cheesy

I have this material: 2x Hub USB 3.0 and  20x Bi•Fury 5 GH/s USB Miner (Asic).

Thank you a lot for your help. Any advice is welcome.

You should pick any pool, bitminter is pretty easy. Download  and run it.

Theres always other pools, just consider the fee %.

You`ll also have to factor unaccepted blocks.

Make sure you enable auto-payouts. Especially with a non familiar pool.

I would be careful and do DD before buying from the company this OP posts in first post.  Him or others going around posting the site's address here and at least on Cointerra forum, claiming the site is trustworthy, on the SAME DAY that the site went live.  How do they know it's trustworthy the first day the site opened? Did they get their shipment thru one of those Amazon's future same day delivery drone?

Thank you for pointing that out - pretty sure this will give a lot of readers an idea about unserious advertisement

Warning came too late for me, I'm afraid... they have scammed me out of $400 worth of Bitcoin  Cry

All we can do is keep posting warnings about these crooks... I am also filing a report with the Cyber Crime Enforcement people - they will be able to track them down and hopefully get our money back... <fingers crossed>

*** DO NOT PURCHASE FROM WWW.BIFURYMINERS.COM - they are CRIMINALS running a SCAM to steal your BITCOINS ***
