You used the right format, but need to be at least a Jr. member to post images. Quoting for easy access. I hope the guy who posted this gets better, in 2011 Bitcoin mining was just getting popular and getting more commercial and mining difficulty was on the rise. You could move this thread to the mining board as it's more specific. The option to 'move topic' is at the bottom left of the thread.

I have seen mining places where hosting service is available. Mining truly generates heat, but with the technology growth these days the heat is been much reduced. Nowadays most of the mining farms were located on cool regions or else cooling systems were added to reduce the heat. Truly the heat beyond certain point causes damage to the brain.

Rank up to jr. member and you'll be able to post image. But it's ok, you have posted the link.
Do you still have the link for that post? I want to see the comments of other people on his post.

Well yea, but he wasn't running a corporate-sized mining farm though. He only had 4 machines. Not sure if huge mining businesses even existed in 2011 as I'm pretty sure most of them are only mining at home.

But why he was mining in his room as he already know that it will generate heat in the first place? Well the rest is history now, I do hope that he has save those early mine bitcoins to help him financially on what he supposedly suffered.

My guess is that not everyone has their own spaces to accomodate mining, he could have put an air conditioning system or atleast an efficient cooling system. The man can't be blamed for what happened to him it was an accident. And this was years ago so no need to wallow in the past, reminiscence is a good thing but this should not be a hindrance for us to keep on moving forward, remember that past is there to teach us not torture us. By the way, this is a very strange case in my opinion, getting a heatstroke for operating a small mining system.

You need a minimum rank of Jr.Member to post images in this forum or you can buy Copper Membership if you do not want to wait. The code that you need to paste images is [img]https://i.imgur.com/ieNK0.png[/img] 2011 technology was not so advanced but things have changed a lot in just 9 years.

I never mined Bitcoin or crypto but I am remembering the early days that I had in crypto how I started all the sites and all the apps that I used to earn free bits back in the old days. I think we would all have some good memories to remember when it comes to crypto unless you are one of those who invest back when it was so high or being pump up then you certainly have regrets but don't worry I think we all could come back or gain back what we loss.

Yes, he used the right format but since he still newbie the image is not showing, Quoting will help so there's no need for readers to click the url. it's revealing the image now. I hope the guy who posted this gets better, in 2011 Bitcoin mining was just getting popular and getting more commercial and mining difficulty was on the rise. You could move this thread to the mining board as it's more specific. The option to 'move topic' is at the bottom left of the thread.
Miners able to see opportunities that there's really money that they can get from this business. Hopefully that person able to save those mine coins and able to take advantage as early holders.

Can 4 GPUs really produce that much heat? If it was 4 ASIC miners, it could have been more believable. 4chan is known for fake stories, so it's hard for me to buy it. As long as the brain damage he suffered did not make him forget where he stored his wallet he should be fine by now ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Very few people hodl coins from the early days till now, most sold at x100 or x1000 profit. It may be easy to say now that everyone should have hodled, but back then the volatility was even higher than today, and people were happy with taking their profits.

I partially believe the heat part of the story. I personally owned a GPU that used to rise my temperature by more than 10°C in a hot day. But I guess it's mostly bad luck if you get to have your room even hotter randomly once while you're sleeping.
Storing your mining rigs in your bedroom isn't the wisest idea anyway imo. Besides heat, there's also the noise that would annoy the hell out of me during sleep.

Probably lacking of available rooms on his house, and maybe he feels more comfortable and dignified looking those rigs until he could no longer handle the heat. But seriously, I can't sleep staying the same room with those noisy rigs.

if you look through mining posts around the 2010-2011 timeframe there are some truly amazing pics of setups. hundreds of gpus just stacked on sagging shelves from the sheer weight. a lot of pics gone in that thread but it was some awesome (and scary) stuff.
loved it. spent hours browsing those pics. if i find the thread ill post it here.
edit: remember the milk crate miners lol

Edit 1: I dunno how to paste the image on the page so I guess you might need to click on it. Sorry. It's really a tough investment doing mining since there are so many things that you need to consider before starting mining. You don't actually know if your going to earn a good amount of profit or is it really worth it doing mining, you need to consider some things like your country if you are in a tropical country I thing it is not recommended to start mining since the hardware is going to produce a lot of heat, and getting overheat is one of the causes of the hardware to easily break. Also now that even small miners cannot earn a profit because of the bitcoin halving.

Ah how nice to read about the first world problems of early Bitcoin miners;) I thought 2011 people who mined were smart geeks but looks like even normies tried their hands at mining. Overclockers should have know this though even before Bitcoin, right? Imagine being able to make profit in those days, just home mining. BIG SIGH.
