Title: Hashrate payouts with new machines Post by: bitcointodayand on December 19, 2013, 12:55:23 AM How much will payouts per GH go down once these new more powerful machines come online in February that people have been ordering? Thanks. Title: Re: Hashrate payouts with new machines Post by: DrG on December 19, 2013, 02:27:04 PM The earnings for a set hashrate have been going down at around 30% per 10-11 day period for the past 4 months. Basically each month you'll make 1/2 what u did the previous month. In 2 months earnings will be about 1/4 of what they are now.
Coincidentally the Jupiter spits out 500GH/s - to earn the same amount in 2 months you would need 2TH. Cointerra's 2TH rigs will be making then what Jupiters make now.

Do you expect that same rate of decline to continue, or do you expect it to accelerate with proliferation of next generation machines in February? Title: Re: Hashrate payouts with new machines Post by: DrG on December 20, 2013, 04:13:44 AM It will probably continue at 30% for the next 4-5 months and then start to taper. It can't keep growing log growth rates unless BTC goes into 5-6 digit prices.
That's why I think buying hardware should be held off until June or so. |
