Well, I have earned 0.00510789 from various websites, but I have a mining contract that is supposed to start in September. 
So we will see how that goes in another month or two.

Mining contract? How does that work?
PS: Sorry for bringing the IQ of the forums down
I think we will dip under 70 again in the next two months, but I just bought some yesterday because I keep spending them. Just don't sell them for less than you bought them for. With the way the price has fluctuated this year, it's reasonable to foresee the price going under 70 and over 120 several times before the year is out.
I agree that over the next few months the price will most likely fluctuate. I always spend my BTC too, so I've never really thought about the long term, but the future of bitcoins is definitely tough to predict.
Bitcoins used to be very accessible. Then they became popular, and were both accessible AND popular for awhile. Now they're still somewhat popular, but accessibility is decreasing, at least in my opinion. I don't buy bitcoins often, but every time that I do, it seems like they're tougher to purchase. The lower accessibility will result in lower popularity, which will probably cause the prices to drop in the long run, in my opinion.
I'm pretty sure I know nothing about economics, and I probably think I know things that are actually completely wrong, so please take my post with a teaspoon of salt
Re: Walkthrough: Raspberry Pi/Block Erupter mining rig setup with autostart and vnc
Is there any benefit to using the Raspberry Pi instead of a PC when mining with Block Erupters? Or is it simply a space/cost saver?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Using a Raspberry Pi is definitely a space/cost saver. Compared to a PC, its a fraction of the size, costs $25/$35 for 256MB/512MB models respectively, and uses much lower amount of power (5V micro-USB charger). Things like heatsinks and fans add a little bit of cost, but definitely improve the performance (I know this from experience).
If you have an old PC layout around, you could certainly use it. Over time the extra energy costs will definitely add up though.
I suppose these restrictions are for the good of the community. What's even worse though is that it seems like you can't even send PMs until you're a Jr. Member.
