Re: Hashcows with hired rig

Hi

Since I don't have a lot of GPU power at my disposal, I hired a rig from Leaserig.net, and pointed it to my Hashcows account

I'm not sure what is going on with Hashcows but I pointed 2.85 MH/s at it for 24 hours, but only got 3 times as much as I normally get with my 120 KH/s. I would have expected at least 20 times as much to be honest. Is this something to do with Hashcows or should I be using the hired rig in a different way?

I've had problems with [Suspicious link removed] not generating adequate profits.  I switched to clevermining.com and they seem much better about advertising and generating correct profits.

I think hardware wallets are the way to go as far as making something simple
and secure for the masses.

A PC can be corrupted with malware, but a hardware wallet can't.

Until we have debit card type usability (ease of use and storage) where the holder of the card still initiates the transaction it wont be picked up by the masses.  Having to take a picture of a QR code and use an app to initiate a transaction is more difficult than using a credit card.  This is the biggest problem as it currently stands.  Consumers don't care about the 2-5% fee.

Whoever can make the first hardware wallets with the ability to swipe a transaction into a machine, whether it be RFID or magnetic strip will truly be able to market to the non-crypto masses.
