Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
why not play 2 or 3 or 4 or even 10 dollars a day at a long shot when you earn the safe mining. and the long shot mine plays way better then the cost. just takes time.
I know it's a rhetorical question, but if anyone cares - variance is the answer to "why not". The 1:3664 chance for the pool to find a block means it would take 10 years on average, but it's not a 100% chance in 10 years. I'm too lazy to calculate now but there's probably like a 10% chance that it won't hit a block in 20 years.
I'm not saying this is a wrong strategy - like you said, compared to casino gambling you have an edge here as long as the cost/difficulty ratio is favorable. It's still a massive gamble though.
I am not a very political person. Some would say I am lacking principal. But I will be uninstalling Firefox for sure. Not sure what that accomplishes. But I do not want to have ANYTHING to do with supporting the sorts of garbage they seem to be supporting.
If you're not political you should ignore the noise, uninstall Chrome/Edge/etc and support Firefox. Seriously, most of the other browsers are a steaming pile of garbage developed by the largest spyware company in the world.
Well perhaps I am more political than I pretend
But I will most likely be switching to DDG, I think, which I would assume is Chromium based.Maybe give waterfox a whirl, it's definitley a good alternative to bloated firefox.
Though I agree with suchmoon, it's probably the much lesser evil compared to any Google or Microsoft browser (though it really starts to annoy the crap out of me lately with its constant changes on updates).
Actually the wikipedia guys try to catch the same ESG train recently:

Only few understand that BTC actually helps renewable and green energy by using that energy when nobody else does/wants to.
