Just buying bitcoins isn't fun though Wink

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.

I know, all these derps here act like naggy mothers telling you to never go outside and play cause you get jeans dirty..

if they care so much about ROI then why they waste time in junk forum like bitcointalk?

I am going to nagg you. ROI is more important...

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.

Sell it, and use the money to buy BTC.. you should gain way more then what you are doing..

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

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

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. Cry

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....

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.

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

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.

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"

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...

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.
