Well its goodbye from me until/if my BFL 30GH comes, as my 3GH BTC per month now does not cover my costs. If BTC goes up 25% maybe i will turn my rigs on.

3GH/s doesn't cover your costs?  Shocked

I am running barely 1GH/s, and it STILL more than pays for all the electricity my house uses in total.

Are you on a Pay As You Go 3G WiFi dongle, and powered by a petrol powered generator?

Jokes aside, I don't see how 3GH/s can't pay for its self - especially as the future potential value of BTC could be very high.

My one machine, making roughly 1GH/s costs me about 7 pence per hour to run, or £1.68 per day - and my payments of 0.05BTC come, on average, 33 hours apart, so I am generating £3.11 per day, or £1.43 profit after electricity costs

OK maybe costing too much is a bit over the top, but from when i started to now, im paying more elecy and getting a lots less

Earing .25BTC every ~2.5 days, so thats 12 1/4, which is 3 BTC per month, which is 240UKP at todays exchange rate (looking back at my earnings at the beginning i was getting .25 every 22 hours)

Im paying over 150UKP per month elecrticity extra, and that is wthout turning on the AirCon, which i need to now as my room temp has shot up to a point where i cannot sit in it for more that a few hours.

As the temp outside rises, the aircon will need to work harder so i guess in a week or 2 my earnings will pass the point of being positive.

Unless BTC rises faster than my temp its a loss loss situation.

So ill just sit and wait for the 30GH to come along and start again then.
