RALLY!
Bitcoin is now back up to 9.15 NZD/BTC (from a low of 2.4 or thereabouts). Mining is now profitable again.
Feel free to jump on the gravy train again people.
This time it's easier as we now have an NZ exchange (
bitnz.com). I would suggest pure speculation over buying and running a miner, as from previous experience you have a high chance of running at a loss as it takes a couple of months to pay off your mining kit, and who knows what bitcoin will do.
