Topic: Anyone willing to loan 24 BTC? - page 2. (Read 1544 times)
Do you understand that mining is not something you do as a hobby, but it is an actual business? With employees and datacenters?
In addition, how many times do I have to state that mining is a highly competitive business. Not a hobby, a business. We're not in the CPU days anymore. Economics of scale, etc. You are wasting your time mining.
Who gets rich.. the gold diggers, or the companies that sold shovels?

Truth is that both got rich and both got poor. Life is like that. Everyone faces ups and downs. Sometimes these rich guys find themselves lonely with no real friends by the time they are 90, and commit suicide. Some life.
I do not want a loan from anyone who does not believe they will get it back some how or another. I want believers on my side.

So did bASIC / Tom.
ASICMINER has hundreds of TH/s on order. They don't scam, they ship in like 2 days.
Butterfly labs: I don't think it's a scam, I just think they are horribly incompetent, but they *might* ship something this year.
Avalon: Will ship
All the rest: most likely scams.

Why would TerraHash/KnC scam? They seem to be producing some compelling evidence that they are not. The vibes I get from KnC is that they want to help the Bitcoin community.
TerraHash released this CAD rendering today:

All the rest: most likely scams if they claim to be making their own ASIC chips. I've looked in them, and no, only idiots buy into them.

Are you serious??
The bitcoin network is going to get somewhere around 500 TH/s added this year. TH/s.
How is that possible if all the mining companies are scamming people?
.......Awkward

You see I am not bothered that you bring these quotes to my thread. I'm not hiding my humanity as you can clearly see. I go through many different trains of thought and I utilize the forum to express those states of mind. If I were not to do that, I would be socially irresponsible.
edit: Do you really feel KnC is a scam? What about TerraHash? I'm torn between the two, sometimes leaning more on KnC, and other times Terra. Sometimes I think they are all ponzi's but I thought I was a minority in this opinion. Clearly not.

That last line. Also, it is charity because you will not be paying it back. KnC is a scam, you're like the deluded MiningUnited "it's not a ponzi!" people.
In either case, the profit (even without CP risk!) is greater if you just buy the unit yourself. The only reason why you'd want to fill this loan is for charity, and that would be a pretty stupid idea because the CP risk of someone registered April this month is way too high..
You're not special. Millions of people are in dire financial situations, and begging for money (because this is not a good loan, this is charity / donating) is best reserved for your friends and family or your government versus internet strangers who quite honestly don't have much faith in humanity anymore after losing a total of ~hundreds of millions of dollars in scam schemes.
I am not blaming you for the situation you are in, only for your behavior.

Am I really a total stranger/not part of the Bitcoin family? I guess that is so. Thank you.
edit: and by the way, it is a loan, because I intend on paying it back. a charity/donation is not paid back.
another edit to respond to what you added in your edit: I don't need change, I need a loan. I'm not sure why you think I need to change myself. Does my wealth define me or anyone else? because that is the connection you have made and I feel it's ironic for you to bring your radical ideology to this thread where it has no place.

I am not blaming you for the situation you are in, only for how you choose to approach it. It would be nice to imagine that someone else will get you out of your situation, but that isn't practical - change has to come from yourself, not begging for money on an internet forum.

Why don't I just buy it myself, because I'm pretty sure you'll disappear if KnC has woes.
The lending section is pretty much useless right now. The only loan requests are from newbies that generally scams, intended or not, and the actual serious requests are all through websites (eg CoinLenders) or PM.

You're right, that is a very valid point and thus I have added to my original post, but ultimately you cannot blame me or the lending section when people are forced to work with their circumstances that they have no control over, and I am one of them. Like I said, this is going to take someone who wants to help, trusts KnC so that they are not stressing over the loan, and wants to get a small reward for their help. I will be grateful and give the most I can give in return, but obviously I cannot predict just how high the difficulty will be when I receive the miner so like I said, I will throw in a few BTC's on top of the 24. In the best case scenario, I get it before the year ends and the difficulty hasn't gone too high, and I will give my lender a generous amount of BTC after paying back the initial amount.

I want to purchase a miner from KnC which is rated at 175gh/s. Thus I feel I can repay you back. It's really as simple as that. My entire net worth is about 11 BTC and I think I need about 24 more to cover the cost for the miner. Once I get it, the first BTC I mine will go to paying you back 24. and how about a few BTC's on top of that? Obviously this would be a generous/helpful loan and for that reason I am looking for someone with a kind trusting character that wants to help a person who is struggling to get momentum in the mining game, is also confident in KnC's ability to live up to the story they are telling. If you don't believe that they will produce what they say they will produce then I suggest you do not induce this stress upon yourself. I'm fairly confident that some day BFL will ship me my 5gh/s miner and that within it's life span it will find a block, thus this is going to be the only insurance I will be able to afford you of your 24 BTC, if KnC ends up not producing anything.
