Congratulations Tim, it seems like only a few months ago that you got your first million.

Hi James,

Thanks for the msg.

I got my first million on a single project some time back, but I can't recall which project it was for......Collatz or PrimeGrid or DistrRGen - think it might have been the latter, actually.....

But this BitcoinUtopia project is paying serious credits, and I hear it's causing David Anderson (BOINC founder) some sleepless nights, with regards to how the BitcoinUtopia project might be unsettling other projects, as all the "credit whores" shift their focus onto BU.

Which is a shame really, as it would be really good if SETI and other projects embraced the use of ASIC hardware, in the same way they did with GPU's...

Anyways, I'll crack open a beer tonight and I'll be taking Temujin's "crown" as "Crunch Leader" soon - UBTstats website says I should overtake John in about 40 days which suits me as I plan to carry on with BU, until the MilkyWay@home "Campaign #3" (to help raise funds for said project) ends sometime in the middle of October.

regards
Tim

Well done, Tim  :hello1:  :hello1:

That's some going, and thanks to rbox it looks like I'll reach my 1billion in about a fortnight - although I have hopes of improving on that!
