Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency - many coin - wow - v1.2 Released

I love it how Dogecoin seems to have a higher market cap than Feathercoin. The project owners must have made a fair bit i.e. 'Very many coins' - 'Very much profit' Smiley

Why didn't the creators call this Big Bang coin instead? All coins are created almost at once, enticing miners to mine this. 

Then after 6 months, oops, party's over. Many coins have come and gone, let's see what happens with this one.

Re: I cant understand cex.io investors

I only have about 31 GH/s now on cex, in addition to my other ASIC hardware. With other pools, you also have to pay the management fee, so ghash.io is sort of subsidising their pool with the proceeds of the cloud operation, isn't it?

Re: Anybody knows anything about import charges when buying ASIC?

You're mostly likely going to have to pay VAT and Import duty. For my BFL Miners into the UK I paid about 8% + 20% VAT. It's a fking rip-off I must say.

Let's say you buy a 60GH BFL miner @ $2200, you'll most likely have to pay another $600 in customs charges, which might make it even more expensive than renting from cex.io (and they deliver instantly).

Or, you could fly out to the US and try to smuggle your gear back into your country Smiley

Renting a suitable environment to put your rig has also been priced in, I hope... if I could, I would host a majority of my mining power in the cloud, but I've already have some physical miners that need maintenance.

My mining rigs are keeping my flat nice and warm. The heaters are electric anyway here, so I think I can discount the electricity costs.

My 500W PSU doesn't power 2 Little SC's, so I have to use a crappy BFL PSU to do the job... what a waste.

Blockerupter blade x10. Guaranteed 800W power usage Smiley

I took out a PSU out of my scrypt mining rig to power 3 blades and I reallly miss the heat... now I have to pay for more heating!

Btw, the cex banner adds up all your ghash.io mining power. I have 3 Block erupter blades running and 2 more waiting to join after I get my new power supply.

If you like litecoin or feathercoin, just buy them on the exchanges...

I think the let down of the site is that they don't accept fiat currency. Considering that they are supposed to be a UK limited company, they should probably take google wallet payments as well... the only problem being compliance.

It's called affiliate marketing. Why shouldn't the people be rewarded for their efforts to promote a company?

I bought some hashing power, because of a recommendation from someone on twitter. He didn't give me his link...

I'm going to be buying some more hashing over the next week. Somehow there is no more point to mine yourself, since these commercial farms can do it on a much more economical scale.

Still, I have about 100 GH/s worth of hashing gear coming in the next month or so... my wife is going to be so angry.

The other innovative thing is that the space, power, maintenance gets taken directly from the reward.

With cloudhashing, you have to pay 20% UK VAT if you live in the UK...
