benkay: and yet vipcoin doesn't break
top page google
benkay: but i
think we're making
the same points.
benkay: except
that
the bureaucrat doesn't own
the medallion organization,
the mob does
mircea_popescu: fucking unfair comparison of
the century. i hate
taxi medallions.
benkay: fly
them
to romania on a carrier pigeon
truffles: seeing
that
this is bitcoin i
thought
things would be a bit different
benkay: rhetorical questions.
too much for you
to afford, and it's not.
benkay: and
truffles, how is
that related
to
their operating costs?
benkay: truffles, how much does a seat on
the NYSE cost?
truffles: whats
the fee supposed
to cover cost wise?
truffles: i love it when doms
throw money at me >>> go on
jcpham: i love it when doms
throw money at me
Cylta: mircea_popescu: is it illigal
to buy\sell mpex accounts?
Technologov__: mircea_popescu, no one is
throwing money. Just
taking risks.
truffles: im here
to discuss anything else if u wish
Technologov__: so you don't need
to waste
time/lectricity/head-ache, customs bureaucracy and so forth

truffles: isnt
that why i would invest
though
Technologov__: come on... it is all about mind-set. Don't needs
to be rich ^^
Technologov__: truffles, what I'm
trying
to say, is
that you can invest even without having Bitcoins. Just must buy
them.
jcpham: my paste is just doing it's own
thing
today
jcpham: You rated user diatonic on Mon Mar 11 14:26:46 2013, giving him a rating of 1, and supplied
these additional notes: Attempted and pre-paid for 24 hour mining lease. Unforseeable circumstances changed our plans..
benkay: if we write it
to minimize entropy,
that would be cool
benkay: great way
to keep your sysadmin costs high
Technologov__: and what ? I worked at Cisco Systems.
There are *much* more cables
there. I assure you.
truffles: knew
theyd ship em, not rich enough
to buy em
BTCOxygen: Anyone who is not sure if Avalon will ship should read
this
thread from page 1
to 11.
BTCOxygen: Technologov__: Oh I found a very interesting
thread for you.
ezdiy: you know, sieve
through
thousands of retarded criminals
to find one smart enough
error4733: saw
that before !! some ppl make key with picture on flicker !!
ezdiy: but
title sounds interesting
ezdiy: jurov: even chinese guys reported selective vip
treatment in regards
to shipments from avalon
jcpham: a device
that makes
thousands of bucks a day potentially is a security risk
jcpham: yeah
the
technology has made it like
this
jurov: or manufacturers mine
themselves instead
jurov: but really, i see it like either many asic users want
to stay secret, or
they are chinese not on btctalk
jcpham: i bet it's confusing
talking
to me.
BTCOxygen: Technologov__: +100 for having
that knowledge.
Technologov__: CPU mining will cost you x100 more in electricity
than Bitcoins you produce...
Technologov__: it is 100
times slower
than GPU and 100,000
times slower
than ASIC
jcpham: cpu mining botnet probably
Technologov__
Technologov__: going from 20
to 80 GH/s (in a MONTH !!!) can not be done via GPU.
ezdiy: jurov: i
think
the rational explanation would be: give impression you want
to get asics "out
there so people dont lose
trust" but in fact keep it private for as long as possible :)
BTCOxygen: Anyone who clains
that
there are no Avalons in
the wild should read
this whole
thread.
jcpham: i
tell lies on
the internet for fun
imsaguy: mircea_popescu:
that is quite impossible
BTCOxygen: Also
there a many users posting about
their Avalon on bitcointalk.
KRS-1: my friend has some of
their fpga stuff
MJR_: otc is
too stressful
Technologov__: But due
to huge spike, I believe,
that ASICs actually exist.
Technologov__: If
this graph would be flat, I would buy a GPU, and not believe into ASIC lore.
jcpham: be interesting
to see how it paces now
jcpham: from
talking with pool ops
jcpham: 100-400GH/s was struggling
to keep up a few months back
mircea_popescu: seems
there's one avalon
there, and it does 80% or so of
the pool ?
BTCOxygen: Also
they don't list blocks properly.
mircea_popescu: you
telling me 5 avalons doesn't get you in
the list ?
BTCOxygen: I
think even imsaguy has an Avalon.
Technologov__: but
the risk-reward is potentially so high,
that it is worth
the (limited) risk.
BTCOxygen: There are 5 Avalons mining at my pool
tho.
jcpham: my world is small
though
jcpham: and
the owners and i've spoken with
them
jcpham: but
they have produced a product
BTCOxygen: I know 5-6 people personally who recieved
their Avalon.
jcpham: but i mean like
the company name is unassuming and disarming even "butterfly"
BTCOxygen: Technologov__:
There are 300 working units.
mircea_popescu: jcpham its literally not
that hard
to do. get a journo dood
to post nonsense ? 100 bux or w/e
jcpham: i give
them credit where it is due
Technologov__: More probably
they will keep
to
themselves. (so
their accepted BTC might be a scam)
Cylta: first batch of avalon already reached
their customers, no?
