Why mine Bitcoins when you can use Computing Power for Hedging?
- fsk 13y agoYou can calculate the minimum volatility portfolio directly with linear algebra, idiot. It's called 'efficient frontier'.
- joaojeronimo 13y agonot what we're trying to do
- juliangoldsmith 13y agoNobody mines with CPUs/GPUs any more. If you do, you'll lose money on electricity. That's pretty interesting, though. I think. Brb, looking up terminology.
- joaojeronimo 13y agoYup, still tons (really tons) of people ask us why we mine bitcoins.
- gaius 13y agoThat is not the title of the article, it is nothing to do with Bitcoins.
- joaojeronimo 13y agoThe title has everything to do with it, it's about a better alternative to mine bitcoins
- J_Darnley 13y agoWhat does the computer get out of it though. If I were to mine BTC, I get BTC out of it, even if it cost me more in electricity to do so. If I run this what do I get out of it? I see what you get out of it. You get to use my computing power to help you make "safe" money.
