Well...I finally turned off my Butterfly Labs MiniRig ASIC miner a few weeks ago. Sad sad day, but it wasn't covering the cost of electricity any more. At 2100 watts and only 480GH/s, it's a nine month old dinosaur. Question is...what to do with it now? I doubt it's worth anything. It's too big to be a paper weight.

So what are you all doing with your old ASIC miners???

  Ya...looked there. This unit came with two 1500 watt PSU's that sell for $499 new each, so I should probably just part those, sell them separately and scrap the rest.
