Not to hijack your thread, but now that you are getting out of mining, do you see yourself using bitcoin in the future?
While I'd love to use BTC, I don't think so. Mainly due to the fact that I can't really purchase most things I'm interested in with BTC. If I could use BTC to purchase items from Amazon or Newegg, then, yeah, I would, but I already own 2 pairs of Alpaca socks and there's not much else I want that I can use BTC for.
