    Not worried about BTC and I don't do any Physical Hardware Mining.

    I don't mind adding my 3cents worth. :)

    Bitcoin dead again! (sigh)

      I'm thinking of writing a pre-obituary for this one just in case. ;)

          Indeed. I've always thought there should be more options in mining. I think that maybe it's because everyone wants to have the next step up rather than a better/more transparent option for right now.

          This whole thing will probably open some eyes, though.
