Miners DUMPING their ASICs
I would like to see photos of miners dumping/throwing their ASICs out a window.
Do you have any?

I'm going to start scouring the landfills for old KNC Saturns and Jupiters!   Tongue

Dumpster diving for pizzas and ASICs.......?
High-tech bums are getting rich while you sit and work all day.   Tongue

Now I have a picture of a bum burning waste to heat a steam engine that powers hundreds of asic miners in my head....

thanks

Very creative idea.
Too much carbon from the burning waste, but still interesting.

for all of you that are scared of bitcoin ending your wrong! the us debt will be a 18 tr by the end of the year.  we have dug ourselves in a hole we can never get out of. The people will turn to something to keep trade going. I believe it will be the crypto universe. hold out for a bit longer. The us dollar is a pile of shit. The Chinese see and the Russian also see it. Don't give up!

I wonder when the growth of the hashrate starts to relax. This is amazing. For one year and more we get a growth of about 20% per week (or even more. per difficulty adjustment). Sure, the price of mining hardware just decreased by a few factors in just a year and the price is much higher. But this is just great! ASICs is the best thing that could happen to Bitcoin!

Fact is: You can use ASCIs only for Bitcoin mining and the cost of running them is small compared to the buying price. So if the hardware is out there, a decrease in difficulty is improbable. Non-Asic-Coins don't have that advantage.

Why would less mining result in lower bitcoin prices?  Huh
The network would become less secure. But I really don't think that it would matter significantly. Even 1/10 of the current hashrate could be considered as secure.

They will become heaters in Nordic country

I had 3 Block Erupter Cubes running through February and March and they kept my large living room at about 72 degrees consistently. My heater never kicked on.

I bought the three off Ebay for $1040.00. I sold them for $795. I made .24BTC. I paid ebay 10% of the $795.
-1040+795-79+(.24*450current BTC= -216.00

Not Profitable at current BTC price!

BTC was around $800 I think. If I bought 1.25BTC for $1000, I would be underwater $440.

Less Profitable at current BTC price!


It's a gamble either way

But with heating costs so high this winter ($200+/mo)... maybe you DID make a profit Smiley

Miners are dumping their asics on daily basis the number of asics on sale is significantly on the rise.

Bitcoin mining is collapsing . there will only be few data centers left it will be so centralized might as well rename bitcoin to Bitripple in the near future.

Sure. Roll Eyes

Both #7 and #8 wrong. They are selling 400 Gh/s units because theyre expecting delivery of 1,2 and 4 Thash ones.
That is not less mining. Is waaaay more mining.
And for all that power to be profitable, someone will be aware that at current prices its absurd to fork $5000 on some ASIC to mine 7 or 8 BTCs and resell it later for $999. He will just buy 12 BTCs and save on power, maintenance, et al.
At least, thats how i see it.

Guys it's going to be game over soon. I just read an article explaining how bitcoin is going to reach negative values and bagholders are going to have to pay people to take bitcoins off their hands: http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/talking-numbers/this-could-be-the-end-of-the-bitcoin-era-220746326.html

First people were dumping their ASICs and now this. Oh what shall we do?  Shocked

On a more serious note, it's no surprise that next-gen mining hardware will make the previous generation obsolete. Some of those people buying these unprofitable ASICs probably don't pay for electricity, and may yet see an ROI.

I'll take your bitcoins off your hands for free. Just send them to the address in my sig, and I promise I wont send you a disposal bill.

Mining just slows the creation of new bitcoin



Is that the most interesting miner in the World?
Let's ask him some questions.  Tongue
