Crypto currency is a joke.

yeah it's all been found already

>warranty plans
only a literal retard like OP would buy this scam
>>
>>60853086
suppose you have free electricity and a old computer laying around. what kind of money are we talking about making on a daily basis?
>>
>>60853891
none. You need this type of setup>>60853086

>>60853094
>he insists, as BTC/USD eyes 3,000
>>
>>60853891
Some fag on /biz/ said he could make 40 dollaridoos a day from 5 graphics cards or so.
>>
>>60853891
>what kind of money are we talking about making on a daily basis?
None. Noone actually buys BTC. Money is worth as much as people are willing to pay for it. Find me a retard who will happily buy a bitcoin for you when the exchange rate is like 1000+USD/btc

Its just a few guys sperging about their magic number in their imaginary wallets.
>>
>>60853086
>no longer sell warranty plans
isn't that illegal?
>>
>>60853934
>Some fag on /biz/ said he could make 40 dollaridoos a day from 5 graphics cards or so.

thats a lot of yuroodoos for forty dollaridoos in electricity alone, there's having free electricity and then there is having FREE electricity.
>>
>>60853965
>communist shit

no its not illegal in the USA. retailers don't even have an obligation to do returns or refunds, they do it because they value the relationship with the costumer more. but if they're losing money because some fag is buying them up and returning them after he burns them then id quit offering warranty to.
>>
>>60853958
Are you literally retarded? The reason the exchange rate is what it is is because people buy it for that price.
>>
Buy beans
>>
>>60853958
Why bother posting when you don't have a clue? Bitcoin has almost $2,000,000,000 daily exchange volume. Even shit like Dogecoin is in the tens of millions every single day.
>>
>>60853891
You'd be better off mining altcoins desu. BTC remains a very lucrative investment opportunity, but the mining ship has (mostly) sailed at this point.

>>60853934
You can turn a tidy profit by GPU-mining altcoins (which you can exchange for BTC afterwards, of course). BTC mining requires ASIC rigs to be profitable nowadays.

could a solar farm dedicated to crypto be feasible on some scale?
>>
So basically stores no longer sell warranties for video cards because they're being used? What kind of asswards logic is that?
>>
>>60854252

They are being used outside of norms, therefore the warranties need to be restructured to match new use cases.

hmmmmmmm
>>
>>60854215
you're looking at an extremely long return of investments.
Your solar panels would probably go bad before you break bank.
>>
>>60854266
I don't see how that's outside of norms though. The card is designed for some maximum workload and has some expected power-on-hours, pushing the card to the maximum possible workload shouldn't be considered "outside of norm". I get what you're saying but it's pretty silly from them.
>>
>>60854273

basically every time some sick fuck sells a gig of kiddie porn in bitcoin to cover the tracks, the price goes up because somebody had to drop a bunch of USD somewhere sometime to make it happen

people who help the bitcoin market are literally the most degenerate scumbags on the planet
>>
>>60853958
>None. Noone actually buys BTC
Wrong.

>Money is worth as much as people are willing to pay for it.
Exactly, that's why 1 Bitcoin equals 2905.99 US Dollar

You're a retard with no clue.

> Mine Ethereum with GPUs
> Exchange it for BTC
> Sell BTC to USD through an exchange to people that are only buying BTC because their company got wrecked by Russian ransomware

God Bless Russua

You mean graphic cards can't whitstand use for the time they're guaranteed? FUCK YOU

Graphic cards are shit that breaks as easily like your fucking dreams.

Whats with all the unconnected sata cables?

>>60853928
as long as it is used to make money -- as stock, as investment -- it cannot be taken serious as a currency
>>
>>60854741
You realize actual currencies are bought and sold as stocks to make money all the time, right?
>>
>>60854793
don't try to convince a nocoiner. it's like talking to a brick wall. they all have it figured out.
>>
>>60853086
>Only in the US
get cucked
>>
The only gpu that ever died on me was because I spilled Pepsi on it, twice. I was an 8mb card in 1998. Buying a gpu warranty is fucking stupid, just as stupid as buying a warranty on anything.
>>
>>60854741
You've heard of currency trading right?
>>
>>60853891
10 bucks a day on ethereum

>>60853958
>Its just a few guys sperging about their magic number in their imaginary wallets.

t. anon right before he logs into his bank account on his web browser to check his imaginary money
>>
>>60855403
1998... try buying a decenttly powered graphic card today, they break in months
>>
I had a back door into mining with about 300 Mhash of hardware coming to me for $920 but the asswipe ebay seller canceled of course.
>>
>>60856652
No they don't

The only thing that can really go wrong is the fan failing. Sometimes bad VRAM.

Most computer components are either DOA or they work for decades
>>
>>60854266
>buy a co processor for parallel processing and use it without OC and it break
>the store owner tell you to go fuck yourself because you use it for what its suppose to do.
>>
>>60856652
they used to but that was in the RROD era.
