I love when things go from impossibly improbable to real in just a few months.
Take the latest offerings at Butterfly Labs, for example (I’ll list them here for your convenience). These little bitcoin miners start at 4.5 GH/s and top off their hashrates at 1500 GH/s. When you run the numbers with the current bitcoin prices for April 2013, the profit from these miners can range from part-time job income to Greecian Isle shopping spree.
A Starbucks barista could enjoy the toils of making espresso drinks 20 hrs a week then work on building a new island civilization on the side.
