This subject needs to remain on top. As a warning to greedy devs.

Sounds like GPU miners like yourself are the greedy ones?

"Hi,
I would like some help with a design to sound proof 10-20 Antminer S9's.
I've been searching but havent really found any good threads on it, hope its ok I create a new one.
This is my goal:
-Be able to run 10-20 S9 in my garage without bothering the neigbours."

"Got 6x S7 coupons valued at 0.05 BTC each available for sale.
0.025 each
0.12 for all"

Why dont you go, and start and support a ASIC coin  - SOB.

And YES i will proudly say I am nice size GPU miner and I supported a lot of projects since 2012 with donations to devs and to list coins on exchanges. Also, as for many here mining is my hobby. I dont drink, smoke or party and money is not the most important think in my life. in blockchain i see future for better world. where a GPU owner/miner in afrika or asia could provide for his family without sale his kidney to a greedy F...k like you.
WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE CRYPTO COMMUNITY, BESIDE PROFITING OF COINS, THAT OTHER MEMBERS OF THIS FORUM SUPPORTED FROM THE BEGINING?

So because he mines with ASICs hes a bad person?

P.S. Its actually cheaper for someone in a third world country to buy and run an ASIC than it is to build a MUCH MORE expensive GPU system that requires paying 4-5x the amount of import duties and makes less profit. Maybe you should spend less time dreaming of a better world and more time paying attention to the reality of this one. So you can proudly say you are a GPU miner even though it is meaningless at least you can pat yourself on the back. You have no fundamental grasp of how mining works yet you come here talking shit to someone with more skin in the game that you can ever afford to have.

The stupidity in this thread is overwhelming.
So you are saying that Asics are custom duty free ? For third world countries GPU mining is even more important. Asics are not available in retail shops like gpus are. Even in a small third world nation's small town you can go and easily buy a gpu but not the same case with Asics. Many Asian countries have informally banned Asics from entering the country, they seize them in customs but how would you know. Living in first world comfort zone and talking about third world problems.

Gpu mining is democratisation of mining and prevents crony capitalism. Any Govt. can officialy ban ASICs easily and no one would care but they can never ban GPUs as it has many uses in different industries and a only a tiny minority use it for cryptocurrency mining.
