I bought another WS motherboard, an older used model, then I realized I need x8 to x16 adapters for it, they cost $1.80 on aliexpress but cost $14+ on amazon if you can find em!
My order on aliexpress hasn't updated for daaaaayyys, so I caved and bought off amazon #sadlife
My savings from buying an older model used board have been swallowed up, and it has 1 less pcie slot too! :/

Others like to just hang them from wire racks
You could build your own too
No point in paying for a rig as they're insanely overpriced, and no better/different from the above mentioned

I always wondered, how do people withdraw large amounts of cash from BTC?
Say you had $1M worth of BTC, how do you even get $1M from selling it? Where do you even go?
I always wondered this.
I know there is Einstein exchange in Vancouver, but surely they wouldn't have enough cash to give you $1M

If you sell locally, you can easily get 2000+
I wouldn't bother with eBay.. you end up paying a shit ton of fees anyways to both eBay and Paypal + the potential for people to fuck you in the ass.

That's true too the fees r outrageous
So Berlin fork is happening and services r being paused for a few hrs, does that mean mining is paused too? Should I be switching to mine something else?
Nevmind mining supposed to work thru it

So i logged into my 2017 bittrex account that last i recall had 200$ in there
Alkazam, just converted it to bitcoin and sold 80% of it on CL  
The best part is i also had a coinomi account with roughly the same amount in there, but i lost the phone and keys. Winning
