A+C: Any way for us to tell when you've shipped orders by looking in the traders book? (If not, it would really be nice to have a "Shipped" column with Y or N Smiley )

Shipping status, with tracking # please.

Thanks.

i'm planning on running my USB miners plugged straight into my litecoin mining rig (2 front mounted USB ports (2 miners ordered) - although i'm concerned about power - should i get a powered USB hub? i have also got a raspberry Pi that i have thought about using too - any recommendations?)
I think your PC will have enough power to supply juice to the USB ports for the miners.
With your Raspi you'll need a powered hub for sure. IIRC the Raspi only supplies 100mA to the USB ports (in total?).

You can get 500mA per hub, so if the two USB ports on the front are off separate hubs, you would be OK (except for the 100mA used by each hub...)

For the price of a powered hub (A fraction of 2BTC), I got one anyway, and added a 4A PSU.

I've made my order through provided link, but I don;t get this google trader's form.
where do I ship money for my two units?
Should my order be instantly on that list?

Are you ready to pay? I am about to order the second batch and stop to receive pre-orders. I am really overloaded with the dispatch phase of the first batch. So I will list you in the Trader's Book and expect you pay soon as possible.

A+C has to enter you manually into the traders book. Some time after 11 hours A+C will send you an invoice with address to send BTC. Once you pay though you can track the sale in the trader book.


Also A+C, are you taking Paypal? I'd possibly like to get in on another 10.

I have low BTC liquidity at the moment to accept Paypal payment.

Any news about shipping? Angry locust?

Yeah, I am going to descend upon the Royal Mail like an angry locust!

 Grin

So what's the news about shipping?

In transit.

A+C gone;/

Not yet... I have been busy preparing the first batch to dispatch as soon as possible. I also take some shots of the Block Erupter USB:

This being just first year level probability and statistics at Lomonosov.  What they teaching else places?   How to be making fancy Starbuck skinny-soy-skim-mocha latte with whiping creams?

The law of the universe!
The time taken to find 1 block would be 4 years 338 days for 1 stick according to http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/, or am I missing something?

This being from article a year ago when difficulty much lower, but still applying even though time to find block now multiplied by 4 times at current difficulty.  Chance not 1 in 60 from mining for one month - sayer not knowing how probability working.  Probability to EVER generate ANY block solo mining now 3.4% / 4 = 0.85%  and chance to NEVER generate block in under 1.4 million years when solo mining at < 1Gh/s now 99+% percent

So now, let's find what our cumulative probability will be to generate a block. As a rough approximation, our cumulative probability of generating a block under these conditions, after N difficulty periods, would be sum(probability for individual periods). Actually the approximation will be higher than actual probability, since they're not really additive - though the addition is a pretty good approximation when the probabilities are so low. So, designating p = 0.00342634853731, our cumulative probability approximation will be about:
p + .9p + .9^2 p + .9^3 p ....
which at infinity sums to 10p. Thus, under these conditions, the upper bound (remember that summing probabilities produces a higher value than the proper multiplicative cumulative probability) is going to be 0.0342634853731. so /at infinity/, your probability of generating a block is only 3.4% or so.
And conversely, your probability of /never generating a block even after millions of years/ is about 96+ percent.


Very impressive calculation! My brain can't keep up. Maybe it's because all I see in my imagination is a sexy female version Sheldon and I'm stunned..... or a super smart Penny with red hair......super stunned! Shocked

If you look at the traders book you'll notice a number of users didn't pay. A+C ordered the first 200 and anything after that falls into batch #2.

Looking at it now batch #2 has 84 units paid for so batch #2 is good to go as well.

Is different batch 2 than I ordered in?  Already having 467 units ordered and mostly paid for and showing as closed?

Second batch is happening right now and is closing in 11 hours and 30 minutes and will start accepting payments if it reaches 50 units ordered, otherwise it'll open again till it reaches 50 units minimum.
