The new miner from Zeus is upon us soon

You'll be seeing a lot of new higher-speed scrypt miners coming out with similar power consumptions because of the newest generation chips. The new chips are much more power-efficient, and because of that you're going to cut operating costs to help increase revenue and rate of ROI.

ROI

Whenever you look into a new miner, you need to realize the cycle until you reach your ROI (return on investment) to ensure you're not just chucking cash into a bottomless void.

The next-gen difficulty boost

EVERY-time new, faster, more power efficient chips come out you're bound to see a jump in difficulty. So when you're looking into ordering hardware of any kind try to keep this into consideration. I'm not saying your miner won't be giving you money when it's running 300MH/S, but there may be a fairly substantial drop in daily payouts.

Fan level over 9000

As you can even see from the product model, there are fans. A lot of fans. So before you order, keep in mind the noise and heat these monsters love to throw into your room. Plan ahead of time if you're willing to just deal with the noise and heat, or if you have a room you can stick them with some airflow/ventilation.

Above all

When you make bitcoin or any other crypto-currency, do the community a favour and USE it, don't SELL it. If you contribute this way, it helps the bitcoin community grow and helps the bitcoin price in general. The network will thank you.

BTC-Flow

Today I'll be giving a bit of a look into BTC-Flow . It's a game based bitcoin faucet that has me pretty into it. No more of the jumping from site to site clicking your way through pop ups and other fun activities. The concept of the game is that you run a company. At first, your company mines bitcoin and has a earning rate of 0.0000015 BTC/Min and your max capacity is 0.000012 BTC. Your part in running this company is getting the bitcoin from your company either before or after your max capacity is hit. You then need to click once your bitcoin capacity is reached to put that balance into your main bank. From here you basically repeat this as much as you'd like. If you really enjoy this, you can "level" your business with bitcoin to increase capacity and earning/min at any point. If you like faucets, you need to check this out . BTC-Flow.com

MinerGate

MinerGate is very interesting Mining pool with it's own mining software AND web mining (something that I've personally never seen). It is primarily used for mining cryptonote coins. If you have a slower CPU/GPU machine, it might be something you can get a reasonable yield out of. With much lower global hash rates, you have less competition for shares. Some cryptonotes have to be exchanged into a different coin before bitcoin but some like BCN can be exchanged straight into BTC (if that's what you're looking to do). Start Mining Simply download their GUI miner, and you can start at least mining with your CPU almost instantly. The second route is to navigate to their home page and scroll down past their GUI and download their open sourced mining software (if you dont like using these, just stick with the GUI). Fairly easy to set up, they're basically plug and play. Here's a simple set up for the Claymore CryptoNote GPU : setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT...
