bitcoin's going up

that's insane, ages ago i looked into mining and didn't seem worth it, should probably take a second look nowadays, thanks for the heads up!
 
I feel like I see a thread like this every month or so..
 
reminds me of the tulip mania..... note: this may just be the beginning.

The best way to play such speculative runs is to buy a big quantity very early and then keep selling a small quanity at regular intervals.

Once the trend reverses, it will be very difficult to sell these bitcoins.
 
The most powerful GPU for mining is a 5870

It does 350 MHash/s

thats $16 month... am I wrong?
 
Makes me wish I would have invested in bitcoin when it was first launched. Damn I really missed the boat on this one:D
 
Last time everyone thought BTC was going to skryocket "without limit", it crashed horribly. I'm waiting for this to happen soon. All those people that bought BTC and mining rigs are about to have the shirts taken off their backs..

Not that I disagree with you here, however bitcoin now is quite different to what it was back during the last bubble. The last crash was pretty much a chain event, causing doubt all across the network because of a large scale hacking attack. Bitcoin has evolved quite a lot since then. Still, I do have my doubts. Got 50 or so coins stacked up in one of my wallets, maybe good time to sell right now, who knows...
 
When something is overvalued or overbought, the market will correct it.
So, then...
It'll be corrected.
 
I probably buy a nice amount of bitcoints because I really like the concept and want to support it. But not until the market crashes / goes does, because like said above, the market right now is defenitly overvalued.

you have no idea what you're talking about, lol.

Know the term, ASIC?

Yah... don't speculate on which you don't know.
 
What crashed last time was a major exchanger's site. This was a third party site, not Bitcoin itself, as supporters of the currency said at the time. Analysts are suggesting that BTC is poised to get to $10,000 in value per Bitcoin in a few years.

Source on that? Not calling you out on it or anything just interested.
Slightly offtopic, but I kinda think this speculative mindset might be a problem in the future... In other words, I hope that we manage to shift away from the constant btc/$ comparisons and embrace the currency for what it is (stop hording and start spending). I understand that this is pretty much impossible right now (as market capitalization is below 500mil or something like that) but hope that we'll get there in the future.

You're making yourself look like an idiot. I'm talking about market theory and historical corrections.

Throwing around terms doesn't make you look intelligent or give you any credibility. In fact, arbitrarily throwing around acronyms out of context does quite the opposite. Do you know the term Bollinger Bands? Oh look, a simple investment term that is much more applicable to the market value of a currency than mining hardware systems. Now I must be a genius.

Overbought and oversold currencies, securities, etc. have absolutely nothing to do with mining hardware. Don't speculate on which you don't know. Shove your unfounded "advice" up your dumb ass, if you can find it, fucking moron.

ASICs are behind schedule, they pre-sell to fund their R&D and half the companies were scams from the start, and yes the 'reward' is halved from 50 to 25 now. If you believe Bitcoin is going to increase in value, IMO the best thing you can do is invest in Bitcoin itself not the mining rigs. I don't understand the whole algorithm behind it, but I do know that as mining efficiency improves the difficulty is raised to keep releasing a stable amount of Bitcoins over time so as more people get ASICs those same people will be rewarded less and less basically.
 
It will be interesting to see where this goes. I definitely support bitcoins and will invest some money in them. Anything that takes power from PayPal and the big merchants is welcome IMO.

ahahahaha freakin art man lol!
 
Time to generate one block to earn 50 Bitcoins on solo mining:
Average time: 695 days, 2 hours, 11 minutes, 54 seconds
