Of course! I started on BTC, then LTC, PPC, and now DOGE
6 weeks old and mining at 3GH
3 week old newbie miner here and enjoying every minute of it 
.

mining for 1 weeks using bi*fury and usb erupter , 0.01 for 3 days ... no ROI , just for fun ...
i mine for fun at really low khash (doge, moon)
rather invest into the coins than buy the hardware
the only coin worth investing into hardware is probably bitcoins (if you can get Ths)
spend 1k on a graphics card or buy a thousands of each type of coin
don't put all your eggs in one basket!

Started mining a few months ago, its been rough
I bought a new 7950, but using it in an old system... getting bout 500kh/s
All of us! 
been mining for a couple of months....can't make much with my 100 MH/s. :-/
I've been mining litecoin for awhile and switched to bitcoin (til the big jump).
Messed up with the hardware and bought 3x 5770s.. should've went with 1 7950 or something instead.

where can you get real cheap FPGA?
7950's are the way to go.
Been mining for about 4 months now, running a few rigs...
Though I have a feeling at the end of summer, GPU mining will be pointless. Pick up some cheap FPGAs!

I just received my 7950 in the mail yesterday and today I'm going to go pick up a new PSU ... hopefully tonight I can start mining!
I tried mining with an old PC with a GeForce 8600. Gave up after I made 0.001 or less BTC in 2 days.
I'm mining since Sept 2012 with 4x5850, waiting for Avalon chips
I tried to mine with my GPU, but after I used profit calculator I stopped beause i feel it is not worth it 
Going to start up mining with a few USB miners. Let's see how it goes from there!
I'm also mining just for the fun of it with CPU+GPU not even at max. (around 2MH/s), it's not for the amount of bitcoins but I understand this helps secure and distribute the network by putting my little grain of sand, so the miner is my new background app on the PC like the clock but much more social 
did you ask your parents that you could waste their money?Jump to:
