  Damn. Proof of work is such a waste. Unless you really, really need it, you probably don't want to spend the money it takes.

  So glad that kind of thing is shutting down. Sucks for the people who lost money, but that is a tonne of power being burnt for essentially nothing.

  To me that video evoked zero sympathetic emotions from me, perhaps it's the GoFundMe right before the #bitcoinboom hashtag, or the name "Digie Gold", or the electricity that was just getting burned off for nothing...

  I'm not surprised this guy is closing up shop. GPU mining is an altcoin game and hasn't been profitable for bitcoin since 2013.

  This video was hilarious. Thanks for the good laugh!

  Less than a week earlier, the story was quite different. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLok7jlysU8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLok7jlysU8
