I won't lie, I set up an account and mined for the past 24 hours with a pool on Bitminter. Made 0.00014128 BTC...or about 0.0025 dollars. Considering it would take about 7,080 days to make 1 bitcoin, I don't think it's worth it.

What stinks is that if you mined Bitcoins when they were first introduced, you could earn like 25 in one day. Imagine? We'd be millionaires.

I saw on a forum someone had paid a few Bitcoins worth $40 for a pizza pie. Someone converted to what they would be valued at now if they weren't spent, and it exceeded over $1,000,000.

It really is astonishing...

I wouldn't be surprised if there are thousands of PCs out there that are unknowingly part of a botnet that are mining. Get 10,000 machines (a relatively small botnet) and you get a Bitcoin per day.

Profit.

Yeah the bubble just popped but I'm sure it will rally then pop again. Short term investment opportunity.

I wouldn't call it a fiat currency since there's no government involvement...

At least the greenbacks have some intrinsic value. Bitcoins are pulled out of thin air by "mining" -- are they fucking kidding? And people ignore common sense and jump on the bandwagon because they see the price go up, are greedy and want to make a quick buck.

It's a fad that will be worthless before long. As with pyramid and MLM schemes, the only people getting rich are the ones who start it or get in early.
