Been hearing about Bitcoin lately? If that’s the case, you might have asked yourself the question above. If you’ve just tuned in like me, here’s a graphical explanation of what is Bitcoin and how it works.
To start things off, Bitcoin is an online digital currency that was introduced back in 2009. It is also known as the “Gold for nerds” and is different fom PayPal as it is not backed by an official currency. Bitcoin is its own currency that is not managed by any government or central authority. Watch the video below to be enlightened further.
Bitcoin is making a lot of noise nowadays that it has captured the attention of the financial sector, investors and venture capitalists due to its high volatility. As of writing, 1 Bitcoin (BTC) is equivalent to $117 US. (It was at an all time high of $266 last Wednesday) However, while the process of obtaining and holding BTC transactions are secure, the individual wallets and exchanges are still vulnerable to hack attacks. As to whether Bitcoin will become a viable currency in the future or not remains to be known.

The Inuit, for example, thrived on a diet largely consisting of seal meat and whale blubber (very few vegetables
grow in the freezing cold) while the Bantu of South Africa thrived on a diet very high in carbohydrates and the Masai did quite well on a diet rich with cow’s blood.
By using a growing tent, you can easily provide the seeds with exactly what they need for
optimal germination to occur. There are many different styles and types of equipment that can be purchased from
your local grow shop or garden store.

Its like you read my thoughts! You appear to grasp
a lot approximately this, like you wrote the e book in it or something.
I think that you just can do with some percent to force the message home a little
bit, but other than that, that is excellent blog.
A great read. I’ll definitely be back.

yeah, buying chips is the way to go. not really worried about bfl, even if they get their sh*t together they will ot be able to ship all those units on their promised dates. if i get a rig in early august i think i can still make money.
jeprokz says:
yup… the batch 3 price range about 780btc but its already sold out now they are selling chips only for those who want to make DiY rigs. im waiting for my 2nd rig this coming june-july 60gh/s bfl single sc luckily i ordered it before they changed the price from $1,299 to $2,499 and they nerf the hashing speed to 50gh/s :p
jeprokz says:
solo mining since mataas naman hashing rate ko hehe…but sometimes im connecting to btcguild
as of now my current speculation is once lumabas mga BFLs super duper very hard na ang difficulties of mining bitcoins expected network hash rate will be 250TH-350TH/s maybe nasa 19m difficulty na.kulang isang araw para makumpleto 0.00001btc hehe but for now kung kaya mo mag DiY naman pede ka bumili ng chips sa mga developers sa zefir sa bitcointalk nag purchase ng 10k chips ngayon binebenta nya ng mas mura hehehe
pagari says:
wow. so you’re killing it right now huh? how much btc per day? you must have made your money back on that avalon asic by now. all profit from now on? hehe do you mine on your own or pool mining? your so lucky since by the time batch 2 and 3 ship the difficulty is gonna rise and it will be much much harder to mine. spike will probably come middle of the year when all the avalon’s are shipped together with the chips they are selling right now. as of last count i think the projected number is 490,000 chips? so avalon, bfl, bitfountain, asicminer that’s a lot of asic machines out there man. do you still think mining will be profitable? i can’t decide which way to go, bfl or a diy rig. but since bfl hasn’t shipped anything, i’m leaning towards going with a diy rig.

In the event you are interested in using green cleansing for your carpet,
you’ll need to create sure that the company uses environmentally friendly goods. The cleaning not just includes cleaning from the flooring or corners; it’ll also consist of appropriate cleansing
from the walls and portraits around the wall. Cleanliness and orderliness inside your business area is essential for the image
of your company.

hi jeprokz,
I am a bit lucky that I started trading bitcoin late 2012. Back then lots of my friends think I’m crazy…now ako natatawa sa kanila dahil
gusto ng balato or maghiram. They knew million(php) ang kita. I know nothing about hardware but in terms of trading di pa ako natalo, “buy low sell high” lang ginagawa ko. I have business proposition sayo about sa litecoin here sa United Kingdom. If you are interested please contact [bahmak2004 @ gmail.com]

Are you living in the country? How much do you pay for power and what is the ROI between the Rig and the operational expense?
Iyan Sommerset says:
Nice and scary thing about bitcoins is that you can use them for anonymous online transactions – buying drugs, illegal shit, etc.

I’yeah ive been hearing a lot about these Bitcoin. I’m just wondering though how would your usual accounting principles affect these types of currencies? I mean with the inflation, GDP and stuff like that if these are country agnostics?
Mr A says:
I am not sure if this is the answer to your question.
Bit Coins are limited and it always adjust the difficulty of obtaining one thru time. Unlike before, people can mine bit coins using their CPU because it is easy. Today, you need special hardware to make mining efficient. I belive by 2040, there will no longer be any bitcoins generated. It will now depend on the transaction of current bitcoins that are in circualtion.
The recent spikes on bitcoin is attributed to the movement of exsisting one. Since the news of gorvernment and organizations starting to look at bitcoin, theres a demmand that showed.
As to the effects of inflations and GDP. I am no accountant, but what I understand it will be country agnostic. Unless you convert your BitCoins to cash, that’s the time it will affect the economy.
I hope it helps.
My interest if its viable to mine bit coin the provice. The electricity is cheaper there.

I’m wondering as well. But I don’t think the usual principles apply. It’s not backed by any central bank. Free for all.
