on the move again

7/8/2011 5:34:11 AM

every time you bump I check mtgox and I'm greeted by a whole lot of no change. Why don't you just post something useful.

Like this:

^ yeah i don't really know what i'm looking for when you say stuff like that GeniuSxBoY, but i checked mtgox too and didn't see anything particularly interesting going on

7/8/2011 9:27:46 AM

Well that sucks... I can't disclose my methods since I know that in order for me to profit, someone else has to lose. Not necessarily you guys, but I am bumping the thread when it's ripe to make some money to help you guys out. I'll still bump it as a helping hand but my intentions are good when I bump the thread.


Tip: Start with $2000.

7/8/2011 12:46:40 PM

What they meant to say was no one gives a shit about your "secret updates" so stop making us open the thread unless you have something real to report on the topic.

7/8/2011 1:06:02 PM

What phone has the best applications and application handling that doesnt include a screen that shatters in the first 24 hours of owning it and also has a keyboard?

7/8/2011 1:27:00 PM

There's the casio GZOne for Verizon. Or get an otterbox.

7/8/2011 1:45:24 PM

i forget who makes it but you need that phone that keeps you from wasting so much time/money.

7/8/2011 1:48:07 PM

To save money, find a stable, responsible, trustworthy, person (mom, dad, sister) and piggypack off their family plan.

I used to pay $74/month for the same thing I'm paying $22/month now. Sprint.

As long as you pay your shit on time, or stay 1 month in advance of payments like a responsible adult and not screw the other person over, there shouldn't be an issue.

I can't tell if these can scan QR code and stuff. I'm looking at the Casio GzOne Commando

7/8/2011 2:14:03 PM

get boostmobile like the blax.

7/8/2011 2:15:30 PM

I try to stay away from anything blax related, they just bring a brotha down. No offense. If it were beneficial, I would definitely look into it.

7/8/2011 2:20:22 PM

So, you're actually putting real money into this? As in, someone is actually BUYING bitcoin on here?

7/10/2011 1:44:10 PM

yes... real money.


like money that's real.


like the same money that could be unreal as soon as congress fucks up US debt.

7/10/2011 3:05:46 PM

^I didn't. I put "real money" into 2 new graphics cards and 2 new power supplies that I wanted anyway (july 4th sale + mail in rebates sucked me in). I'm currently mining at about 650M/s; the pool I'm in says I'm pulling in about $6.50/day at current rates to break me into the black in about 90 days.

I don't think there are any exchanges with volume worth a flip offering margin trading yet, so I can't see anyone making money unless they've put it into hardware. If "that guy" put $2K into hardware he could probably pull 1.2Ghash/s if he somehow managed to get his hands on a pair of HD6990's. That puts him breaking even somewhere about 5-6 months and pulling about $10/day after that (subtracting the ~1 kilowatt his system is sucking down; ~$7/day). Not bad, not bad at all.

7/10/2011 3:15:47 PM

There's a possibility of


1)Your graphic cards breaking/overheating
2)The difficulty increasing, your income decreasing.


In 30days, 1/3 of the entire amount of bitcoin ever released will be in the field.

7/10/2011 3:22:01 PM

The cards came with a lifetime warranty and the power supplies have a 5 year warranty. The PC's still have about 2.5 years left on their warranty. I'm bumper to bumper for at least 30 more months and i should only need about 4 to break even.

7/10/2011 3:34:36 PM

im interested to know if there's an inflection point in EC2. could you make enough bitcoin in ec2 to arbitrage the cost of mining there?

7/10/2011 3:53:06 PM

Ec2 qould need to be constructed with graphics card style compute nodes. With cpu based mining the coins dont even pay for the power used.

My question is how well would it work on a tesla box....

7/10/2011 4:19:04 PM

Shit is hitting the fan lol

7/11/2011 10:44:08 AM

^ How descriptive and enlightening.

[NO]

We've all realized it takes a little crash every beginning of the week. People are probably checking their balances and easing up off questionable purchases that require bitcoins.

Nothing spectacular about the volume or price. Move along.


(What in the world are you doing that you are making money on just a few minutes worth of data?)

7/11/2011 2:33:58 PM

I'm using a mathematically sound method of winning. The only variable is time. The only divide by zero operation is if bitcoins go bust.

7/11/2011 6:18:41 PM

You should listen to this guy. He knows how to science computers.

That's the only thing even remotely appealing about this. Sell them as soon as you "find" them if you can. You might "miss out" on a few dollars but at least you will have something.

Cluster GPU Instances
Quadruple Extra Large $2.10 per hour

Cluster GPU Instances

Instances of this family provide general-purpose graphics processing units (GPUs) with proportionally high CPU and increased network performance for applications benefitting from highly parallelized processing, including HPC, rendering and media processing applications. While Cluster Compute Instances provide the ability to create clusters of instances connected by a low latency, high throughput network, Cluster GPU Instances provide an additional option for applications that can benefit from the efficiency gains of the parallel computing power of GPUs over what can be achieved with traditional processors. Learn more about use of this instance type for HPC applications.

Cluster GPU Quadruple Extra Large 22 GB memory, 33.5 EC2 Compute Units, 2 x NVIDIA Tesla “Fermi” M2050 GPUs, 1690 GB of local instance storage, 64-bit platform, 10 Gigabit Ethernet

EC2 Compute Unit (ECU) – One EC2 Compute Unit (ECU) provides the equivalent CPU capacity of a 1.0-1.2 GHz 2007 Opteron or 2007 Xeon processor.

I saw some guy in the UK that will rent you space in his renderfarm. I can't find it right now at work, but it might be a better option than getting in with EC2. And he was using AMD cards instead of Nvidia.

I had to take the BTC exchange rate out of my stock ticker. That thing is more volatile than these pump and dump penny stocks I've been watching.

It had like a $1.25 swing today, lol.

7/18/2011 10:51:49 PM

more like $2.00

Now there's a Dwolla scandal.

8/3/2011 2:26:17 AM

Anyone listen to the planetmoney podcast? they did an episode on bitcoin that was pretty interesting-- though no new knowledge for folks that have been following it so much as perspective.

A bitcoin exchange and the only 2 game blogs I read. Weird.

You guys gotta do it like the stock market thread...what did you buy in at, what price is the exchange at now?

$17
$9
