With the new ASIC hardware coming out later this month... bitcoin mining is going to explode. In theory, a $10k investment in hardware would pay itself off in less then a month and be all profit from there on out. Of course you only would have a year or two max to make that profit in... but hell if it is 20 months of $10k+ profit, that's not too shabby.

It's great for buying drugs and underage pr0n on the deep web.
You're burning money if you invest for any other reason. |

Unless you are mining.. in which case you are "creating" money.. so long as there is a market for it... and until it hits its cap in a few years (or more)

not with the new ASICs but yeah in the past you ate up all your profits by running a crapload of high wattage GPUs. I think the current gen ones coming out in Late April will cost less then $1/day to run. Which is why I expect an explosion in miners.
