Hello everyone!  I'm getting my Google Fiber installed in the next few weeks and was wondering if there was anything I could do to help the Bitcoin community other than running a full node.  I've got an S7 that I'm mining with, that I'm thinking about going solo with. Will the extra bandwidth help with the solo mining? Thanks!

Not really I've been sitting on a gigabit connection for a few months. As far as mining it's not really needed.  You can run nodes but again... you could do that at normal broadband.


I hope someone comes up with a good idea.  I would love to make money off my extra bandwidth but it is not that easy.     There was a torrent client that paid out for seeding that was in beta.... but I did not join as I did not think torrents people are  paying for ... chances of it being legal vs  illegal is slim they are sharing something opens source, etc.  Other then that there has not been a lot.

I would love for someone to post some thing new if there is a new way to use fast connection's for bitcoin community or personal gain.  But I think it's still pretty slim chance it's changed.
