ASICs and BOINC

I managed to score a 2nd hand 333 MH/s USB block erupter for a mere 5 Euro's, I'll let you guys know how it works when it arrives.

Dirk,
Amazon have rockbox R-miner 32 GH/s new from Germany for @ 70 - 80 euro. 100 times the power. Also Butterflylabs little single 30 GH/s ASIC miners are 70 - 90 euro 2nd hand on E-bay. I have a few antminer U2's and bit and bi furies as well. The block eruptor is the lowest power ASIC you can get and is obsolete, the U2 antminer is really a minimum. If you have any problems getting it to work though give me a PM at TSBT.

I am satisfied with anything that prevents me from dropping in the ranks while crunching all-out.
So far the block-erupter gets me around as much credits a day as its hashing speed (meaning a single stick of 333 kH/s gives you around 333,000 credits a day).

R-Boxes can be found Amazon for 60.00, free shipping and don't forget a 12V/6 Amp power supply. I hope this helps. Rick H

Some how I missed your post MiHost - BUt thanks for the link to these small and powerful devices, currently looking at all the different ways to go after Asic's mining. I would like to get back to crunching BitCoin Utopia and this looks to be the way!!! I am thinking about purchasing one or two of these units.

I do have a serious question though. There are no pictures beyond what is supplied on Amazon; do they plug into your computer or are they stand alone systems? :blob3:

I found pictures that show everything: LINK

Hey guys,
Hope you don't mind if I stop off with you guys for a little while on my way back to TSBT after doing a bit of crunching for my old team of Ireland.

Well, it is only a few days till the 'International talk like a pirate day', so welcome pirate! I'd say

Meaning a 11 mH/s Nano Fury USB miner ought to bring you up to 11 million credits a day, per usb stick.....(a conservative guestimate as the nano is basically six USB antminers (Ã* 1.6-2.2 gH/s) on one stick).

If AMD Users doesn't mind another guest cruncher, I'll stop in, after TSBT get's back in the #1 UK spot, for a day or two. Not trying to upset the apple cart. Just want to make good on the offer my team mate had passed along while I was trying to hide some credits.

Looks like the pirate is already gone before the International Talk Like a Pirate Day has even started!
(coming Friday the 19th, Get ye some loot ye landlubber. Happy talk like a pirate day 2014 ye scurvy dog. Thanks for crunching some of our information stuff. Now, walk the plank! -just to quote the comment with an appropriate POGS trophy)
I hope Scole still can drop a few million BU credits into our account.

Thanks Scole for the offer... :blob3:
