      Hey all. As you can all tell I’m pretty new here. I’ve been more of a read a lot now and talk later kind of guy. Seems if I don’t RTFM I end up asking too many stupid questions ;)

      I’ve been at the whole Crypto scene about a month now… Doing a couple dozen GHash on the SHAs, unfortunately only doing a few hundred KHash. I’m in IT by trade, unfortunately my company doesn’t like to stock many good video cards :P

      Glad to be here, and it’s nice, there doesn’t seem to be the usual amount of trolling going on that one would think to see normally.

      Side note: Lot of captcha action here haha!

        SHA and Scrypt are 2 different creatures. If you pull 100ghash/s in sha, you will pull 100khash/s in scrypt.

        Anyways, welcome aboard!

          Thanks for the welcome.

          Also thanks for the clarification, I’m aware of the differences, just thought I would mention it for some reason or another. I’m mining BTC as well with some ASIC hardware, but am really intrigued by scrypt.

            Ah very nice.

            I like the idea of scrypt because of the lack of asics for them currently… That’s soon going to change though.

            I’m sure in time, there will be other algo’s been used to keep things fresh. I think Betacoin uses something other than scrypt or sha.

              Yea I heard that, havent had a chance to look into it. I was pretty interested in QRKs hybrid attempt which was a neat concept. There are some 10MHash units i seen that were going up for pre-order already. Wasn’t able to find a price though, and was a little too lazy to mail at the time lol.

                    Ahh those ones… Have they started pre-orders yet? It doesn’t look like it.
