hi,
i am really new to all of this and pretty confused. So if i bought a little asic block erupter miner, and i read that it is something around 565 mh/s for 24 hours would get you 1 bitcoin, so i would get 1 coin in about a day and a third, and Google says that a bitcoin is 232.99 USD. does this mean by paying like 15 dollars for a little piece of hardware I would be making $230 in a little over a day, every day? I have got to be mistaken, correct? Thanks for helping
Okay yeah you should come to the site first that 15 dollars will be lost. Other then what you can learn from it.
First question is what is your power cost?
Second question is what can you afford to spend?
Third question is where do you live? If in the USA just tell us the state if in a different country tell us the country.
If you are in europe you have to pay VAT to buy gear 20% or so.
If your power is more then 10 cents a kwatt making money mining in your home is hard to do.
Here is are 3 pieces of gear that are decent if you have the money to buy them.
Avalon4
Bitmaintech s-5
Spondoolies-Tech sp20
all of them are 370 usd and up
