In a very close vote after a five-tie, the GPU Project of the Month for the first time is Bitcoin Utopia.

I would personally appreciate it if people can crank some effort into the Milkyway option please so we can end it sooner.

Thanks

First time shrubbing Bitcoin and not sure I like it. If I set Boinc to suspend while I'm using the computer, the WU reverts to zero time and starts over. This is not a restart/checkpoint issue, it happens even during a temporary suspension. Looks like Bitcoin must be set to "run always". Well maybe the mega-points will be worth it?

When I looked at it earlier today it was Bitcoin 3 vs. Milky Way 2. Sorry gotta pull the trigger some time. Embarassed

Maybe next time we'll consider tie votes as a victory for "Vacation"?

How long are the WUs? My production isn't what it could be as I suspend boinc when I'm home to play games. Not a habit I'm likely to change. If that will keep the WUs from advancing I will have to look elsewhere. Confused

WUs for Campaign 3/Milky Way are about 1/2 hour on my machine. If you suspend a WU it restarts. That ticked me off at first, but since it shrubs only 1 WU at a time on GPU it's not a great loss really, say 10 - 20 minutes each time*. Suggest setting Boinc to "run always" when you're not gaming?

*B-b-b-but every computer cycle is sacred! NI!

These oddly cause my system to lag while running even though it is not using the full processor or all my memory. Not sure why this is. Thoughts?

Thank you! It may be volunteer but I've made some very cool friends out at RPI!

Ni!

I do not have my GPUs pointed at BU, (they are for the other POTM), but I have moved all my ASICs to #3. I am pushing 350,000,000+ per day towards my goal of 25 BILLION! Shocked

towards MW.

I ordered another ASIC this week to increase my production but the @#%@$^@# on Ebay has not shipped it. I was trying for a Billion Shrubs per day rate while BTC/USD rate is down.

BitCoin price currently down to $200. The lower it goes, the more we need to shrub! BitCoin has been in a tailspin for 6 months; this might be a good time for a gambler to buy or mine, betting on a rebound?

If you're not familiar with it, the "long term" price history of BitCoin has been insane!

Do any Knights mine (other than Boinc), trade, invest, or make payments in BitCoin? <-- Also axed this on Facebook.

Savor this moment: It's not often you'll find Boinc statistics, currency price charts, and transvestite action figures in a single post! Off to take my meds... Ni!

I have a shrubber working on BTC, about 800 GH/S currently with another 5.1 TH/S coming online in the next month. Now that BTC is under $200/USD the breakeven for mining is ~$154 at $.10 per KWH. I am at $.046 per KWH so I can continue until about ~$54/btc. then I am out.

I have a Bitmain Antminer S3+ for BTC, and several Rockminer Rbox1 and 2 running my Boinc. Prices have dropped so $79 runs about 100 GH/s which is about 100 Boinc points per day. Sorry, 100 MILLION!!!!!! Buaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
