It would help if we have more ASIC diversity. Right now there are only 4 available chips, and shipping speed's not upto the mark. a) Bitfury b) BFL c) Avalon d) Bitfountain Title: Re: Told ya so.

Bitfountain is the company that operates the ASICMiner brand. Title: Re: Told ya so. Post by: smoothie on September 16, 2013, 09:30:37 AM +1, It would help if we have more ASIC diversity.

I'll check this prediction in 3 months ;D Title: Re: Told ya so.

But linear growth of hashrate will likely continue on a constant average slope I believe with newer and refined technologies. Title: Re: Told ya so.

However, next time we have a 2011 style capitulation, we will likely see difficulty take a dip. Title: Re: Told ya so.

I doubt there will ever be a 90+% drop again, unless it's a 100% drop. But you never know... Title: Re: Told ya so. Post by: notme on September 18, 2013, 07:29:56 PM Assuming steady price, yes.

It's more about a longer term downtrend than the percentage drop since difficulty adjusts to price very slowly. |
