Yep and today I see my account at BTC-E is credited  Smiley Thank you all for the advice!

I notice they charge 0.01 bitcoins to withdrawl money - something to keep in mind I was surprised to find out

My advice would be just to buy some coin rather then try to mine - I think it's a better value at this point

MB should be fine


Hi everyone,

I'm pretty new at this whole Bitcoin mining thing and after watching it and following it for a couple months I decided to give it a go! I got my laptop mining but I'm only hitting 4.4 mhash/s which I know sucks and is relatively slow. SO I dug out my old desktop which has an nvidia geforce 6100 nforce 405 which again, I know sucks (and is too old to mine with!)

Anyways, the motherboard I have is an Asus M2N8-VMX with dual core AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800. Is my motherboard too old to support any of graphics cards that are useful for mining??

bitcoin-qt suggestions

Some ideas I had for the bitcoin client:

It would be nice to click on the connections (in bottom right corner) and see who is connected to you. (IP addresses)

It would be nice if the Help had a help file, that explained what "verify message" does etc. The help isn't really a help screen at all!

Finally it would be nice to have an optional ticker that showed currency conversion next to BTC amount. I know that is not the point of BTC (comparing it to other currency) but an optional feature like this would be neat.

If I could program I would help!  Tongue

i wanted to imitate the kilobyte, megabyte system, because well its computerish, as is bitcoin. problem is this system builds on denominations by the thousands. ~1000 bytes is a kilobyte, ~1000 kilobyte is a megabyte. but the names are good because people already know them and can relate to them easily.


I agree, the sub-1btc names are terrible.

I like calling .00000001 a satoshi, so .99999999 would be 99 megasatoshi just as 99999999 bytes is 99.9 megabytes

So a transaction fee of 0.0005 BTC could be called 50KS or "kilosatoshi"

0.01 BTC is 1MS

etc

Hello - I heard about bitcoin in 2010 and generated a few blocks (which I lost due to being ... stupid!). I'd like to post on the main forum. Thanks
