Bitcoin Cryptocurrency Crash Course with Andreas ...

February 13, 2014 CryptoBadger

Just a quick note that Ive been dealing with the death of somebody close to me over the past several weeks, and updates to the site have suffered as a result. I should be able to get back into a semi-regular schedule starting next week. If youve sent me a message at any point in the new year, chances are that I havent responded to you yetIll do my best to start catching up on email as well.

I have a couple purpose-built custom mining cases here that Im hoping to get reviews up of soon, for those of you that want something thats more flexible (andaestheticallyappealing!) than a plastic milk crate.

An update to my mining guide for the R9 series of GPUs is still on the horizon as wellIm still having trouble getting my hands on the more desirable manufacturer brands at prices that dont sicken me.

Finally, today I updated the cryptocurrency ticker thats running on my site to pull the BTC quote from Coinbase, given the issues that Mt. Gox has been having. If youre running a WordPress site and would like the utilize the ticker, you can grab it from the official repository. As of today the ticker also supports displaying quote prices in Euros, in case youre from across the pond.

Edit: Thanks for the kind words, everyonetheyre much appreciated!
