Hellow everyone. I am planning on preordering the butterfly labs 600 gh/s card that is shipping some time in February. I wanted to know how long that machine would be relevant and if there was a way to calculate the break even point. In short is it worth the investment eventhough it will be arriving next year?

no here is why

http://www.butterflylabs.com/monarch/ cost = 4680 for 600 gh you need a pc and you must supply power to run it.

ignore genesis block link posted below.

more on why it is not a good deal

this deal is insanely better

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=335145.0

40 gh for 130 usd or 640 gh for 16x 130 = 2080 no pc no fuss no muss s

so 600 gh for 4680 from a company that has a terrible rep

or 640 gh for 2080 from a company that has a good rep.

both gear arrives in feb.

Back to genesis block info. It can not be accurate long term predictor of btc price. It may or may not be a good predictor of difficulty rate adjustment.

and no mater what it predicts . the dzcoop deal is less then half the price for more hashpower then the Monarch both due the same month.

disclosure I have 10 shares of r17 or 400gh ---------------------1300usd>>>>>>>>> due to start in feb

I have 11 shares of r9-r12 or 88 gh---------------------------------1353usd>>>>>>>>I cashed out 2120 usd so far

I have 19 shares of r5-r6 or 110 gh all from dZcoop-------------1482usd >>>>>>>> I cashed out 3683 usd so far

I have 1 share of r1 from them also. 192 --------------------------192usd>>>>>>>>>>dues to start in jan

I was just looking at the site and was wondering? Is this a physical product or a mining contract I'm not sure but it does look like a great deal. Now would you know the power consumption?

they are lifetime contract you own a part of the machine.
when they sell them you off you get a part of the sale.
so far they have been good to me and a lot of other people.

as to whether it will make money Huh

?? remember in 2 days coins could be at 100 usd or 1000 usd. no one knows the price of the coin when these mine in feb.
