And when the price is so hight that it would become profitable to mine them for GPU, I could simply cashout and buy a stack of ASICs to mine litecoin or one of the 1000 altcoins, lowering my electricity cost by factor of 10...
Precisely. Ultimately defeating the purpose of GPUCoin. Until ScryptN comes along in ASIC form later this year. Well wait, that would defeat the purpose as well. (see how that works?)
I'd wager I'm one of the few here with more than average ScryptN hash ability, and if you do the math like I have, what benefit for me is there to mine GPUC to buy GPUs, when I can get them for 20% below MSRP shipped next day air, with no quantity limits, using BTC?
Which is why I said, it would demand GPUC be worth a bunch, far more than the IPO value. I'm not saying it's impossible or won't become that valuable, just throwing out some real-life math for folks who maybe haven't considered it.
And if the talk of an IPO regretting refund is referring to me, I have no regrets, just like none of the other refunded former IPO purchasers. i think there were 10 of us. I bailed because I lacked faith in the owner's capability to run a business, nothing more nothing less. Others bailed for various reasons. I only bought IPO to resell it, just like is being done by some others who hold IPO right now.
I absolutely love the idea of the business model, but the lacking availability of the cards will do it in. Just a prediction. I still hope it the best, as the owner can attest, I wished him all the best.
You actually don't even need scrypt-n ASICs to be profitable, mining Litecoin with enough ASICs can be already profitable enough, since you can have more than 10 times the hashrate/watt (2 gridseed equals roughly one 280x but with less than 30w). Means, that would bring me 50MH now with same powercost.
) who want to mine on my pool this is the address
