Re: GUIMiner-scrypt: A GUIMiner fork for mining scrypt chains

The hashing speeds don't get updated nearly as often as the regular GUIminer. Is this something that can be fixed? It would sure make it easier to tweak/tune.

I'm with RBC. Direct deposit are free I believe. Interac e-mail transfers are one free per month, then $1.50 each afterwards I believe.

They don't cover everything if you want the top notch care.... Plus taking time off work, etc etc.

cancer bites.   My father in law is in remission from liver cancer for 6 years now.   The bill (estimated) to get us to this point has been about $330,000.   Not a disease for the poor.

My problem is I only make $53k a year, and I'm a single father. But I'll tell you for sure that being able to afford the treatment definitely isn't the first thing on my mind.  Cry I wouldn't wish this situation on my worst enemies.

Good advice, I'll keep that in mind. However something on this scale makes is much easier said than done.

Again, thanks to the three donations so far. They may not be big, but its the thought that counts, as well as every penny. Even if its enough to buy my son a toy to play with to take his mind off the pain.


I truly wish this never happens to any parent, especially of a young innocent child Sad

Re: [poll] are you sure that we will never see 25$ bitcoins ever again?

Don't forget $25 is only a $4 drop from current prices. But then again you could be right. Bit coin is the definition of unpredictable.

You're better off selling your pre-order. You'll get at least 3 times your money back immediately.

Sorry, I was just in panic mode. I'm worrying about my son too much. Worst case scenario I'll file a PayPal dispute.

Thanks for the support and donations people... I greatly appreciate it....

Seriously, contact Josh.  I'm sure he'll personally expedite this for you.

Thanks for the tip. I will do that after working my overtime shift. :/

That's wishful thinking. Too many people going to take their profits and then wait for a better entry point.

Wow, lots of confident Responses.

If someone asked "would we see $30 in february" two months ago, I wonder how the poll would look.

I think there's still too much momentum. Normal stocks would be on the decline by now. I expect it'll still go up before it goes down.

Only time will tell as the increase in difficulty is still unknown. I doubt it'll be less than a year ROI.

Thanks for the help people. I really appreciate it. But like I said in the other thread (that I accidentally created in the wrong forum) I was just overreacting. Worst case scenario I can file a PP complaint. Either way though, I have never heard anyone complain about not getting a refund.. I just need to "TRY" and relax a bit here. I'm a complete mess.

in case this is true (you'll have to forgive my disbelief ) , i wish your son get well as soon as possible.
From my experience with bfl is that communication isnt that fast. My last e-mail took them 6 days to reply. I havent seen a situation where a refund is not honored.
now.. in that remote possibility of you lying about something like that for a "quick refund" or something... you are just [......- lot of words come into mind-....]


Well the first reply I got took a matter of less than a few hours, and all she did was post a link to the shipping status update page. Then I sent another stating I want it cancelled, then the next day another, and still no response...

But like I said, I'm a wreck right now and I can't think rationally sometimes.
