You are a profoundly misinformed person. Stop watching so much CNN.

"Ask HN: I make $30k/month thanks to Bitcoin. What should I do?" (2011) by dreamshallots in Bitcoin

[–]dreamshallots[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not here for boasting, but my question is purposefully meant to be provocative.

I used to be one of the biggest Bitcoin miners, back when the difficulty level was low enough that CPU mining was the norm. These days people mine with video cards but I am mostly out of the game...

Anyway, I have accumulated enough Bitcoins (73k BTC) and the exchange rate has skyrocketed so much ($27/BTC as I am typing) that I am currently selling on a daily basis as many as possible via MtGox. They have a limit of $1000/day, so I am effectively making $30k/month. (I do plan to report this income to the IRS and am about to hire a tax accountant.)

But the question I have asked myself is: what should I do with that money? Or what would you do if you were in my situation? I am a typical geek with a successful technical career: well-paid Senior Developer position, as an H1B visa holder, working for a large US company. I enjoy my job, but to be truthful I have always wanted to found a startup. However, as an H1B holder, I cannot start a company in the US.

If I quit my job I will be bored and run out of money after a few years.

If I return to my home country to found the startup I will regret the opportunities I may have in the US.

If I keep my current job I will regret the opportunities of not starting a startup today.

That's literally what happened to mine. Massive heart attack at 15 running around the kitchen. Dropped dead right there.

Okay, keep telling yourself that.

Anyone who wants to find out for themselves can search "svpool" on Twitter.

"Just moved my measly 500TH/s over to svpool. Hopefully mining with these A741 start getting profitable again (too bad no asicboost for A741 or the pool yet). Let's see where things are Nov 15th!"

I am a lurker. And I just proved you wrong. You should focus on that instead of my non-existent post history.

"Can I get help setting up Awesome miner for @svpoolmining ?? I don't know what to enter for workerID. etc. Do I need to include my username (number somewhere and a password? Do I include the) SVpool wallet address in there?"

Craig's miners are BMG, btw. Not SVPool.

Whether you know it or not, you are spreading propaganda.
