Title: Diff thread July 4 July 18th? picks are closed! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: philipma1957 on July 05, 2016, 12:02:24 AM new thread is here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1557126.new#new Okay first off Generalt was the winner of last contest 50 usd in btc. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1521664.msg15471593#msg15471593 This will be the ½ ing Jump it will come at block 420000 Should be fun. We have been giving away BTC for more then 18 months at no cost to any player free entry. With the ½ ing coming in under 670 blocks if really weird nutty shit happens I will come up with an adjustment to the game. So fingers crossed good luck and have some fun. Picks start at block 1116 and end at block 716 of each adjustment period. https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty Bitcoin Difficulty: 213,398,925,331 Estimated Next Difficulty: 222,258,479,409 (+4.15%) Adjust time: After 2013 Blocks, About 13.6 days Hashrate(?): 1,531,670,817 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 9.7 minutes 3 blocks: 29.2 minutes 6 blocks: 58.4 minutes Updated: 20:5 (46.0 seconds ago) Adjust time: After 2013 Blocks, About 13.6 days PICKS BEGIN AT 1116 we are at 2013 $50 a jump will Stay in place barring a crash in btc value to under 500 a coin. If coins drop under 500 I will award .1 btc a jump. I need to do this do to coin price volatility. When game began about 20 months ago coins were about 200 usd 0.10 btc was about 20 usd. we paid in .10 btc numbers. Our first donator to the game spent over 2.8 coins. I have been the sole payer for the last 4 months and have paid .9 coins so 3.7 coins have been awarded for free, nada, nothing no cost. I am still able to do this due to my signature fee. Which I put into payments here. First rule is I decide all rules since it is a free chance to get some coin. Second rule is you need to be a forum member since April 1st of 2016 Third rule is you need to have made 30 posts. I will read them and decide if you appear to be real. Fourth rule is if I think you are double dipping your picks won't be allowed Fifth rule is we open picks at 1116 and end picks at 716 just about 2.5 days to pick. Sixth rule is this is for fun so I tend to allow off topic and don't delete very much. Seventh rule is your pick should look like -1.2 = philipma1957 or +1.2 = philipma1957 Eight rule is if you pick a used pick I will assign a pick to you and you are stuck with the one I assign. Ninth rule no pick changes Tenth rule no pre picks via pm's Eleven rule no late picks. Anything I missed above feel free to mention.

Things seem to be off to a normal start with Yesterday being +0.69% with 145 Blocks. Today we have a slow start, with Period to date Run Rate at -3.7%, but always takes a few day for things to settle, just about in time for the halving.....
Will there be a mass switch off or will things just carry on as if nothing has happened?

Very interesting difficulty period, indeed. We going to see if massive switch off is happening before this contest picking period ends, but it would be much harder to predict the final difficulty change if such massive switch off really happens. Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: adaseb on July 06, 2016, 09:00:20 AM Did you guys know that during the last halving, it was solved by a single GPU rig by an Radeon 5870 GPU. Later that GPU was bought by Chaang Noi who during the Bitcoin bubble of 2013 bought a Lamborghini with his Bitcoins.
Crazy Times. Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: alh on July 06, 2016, 02:49:09 PM Will there be a mass switch off or will things just carry on as if nothing has happened? Rich I think the dramatic BTC price rise over the last 3 months has largely blunted the impact of the halving. We may not see a massive drop-off of of hash-rate that some folks are expecting. I expect this will be more of a "gradual switch off" over time, unless there is a crash on BTC price. Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: Mikestang on July 06, 2016, 04:24:07 PM Can't believe we're here already, the halving. Seems like we've been talking about it for so long. Oh, and last round was the closest I'd ever been, I was one guess spot away!
Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: alh on July 07, 2016, 07:05:43 AM About 350 blocks until halving. While not a crash in BTC price, we have seen a decline to about $635/coin.
That, and the halving, will constrain hash rate growth I expect. S9 prices seem to be holding as Bitmain introduces Batch6 & Batch7. No immediate relief for S9 purchasers. August will be mighty interesting, in my opinion. BTC price up, or down? Difficulty up or down? Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: adaseb on July 07, 2016, 07:33:14 AM Most people who I contacted about buying S7 gear from said they are waiting and seeing if the difficulty will drop, if it doesn't they will sell their S7 to me for cheap. If it drops or price goes up another 30%, they will keep mining with it.
Because right now with most hosting datacentres most people will end up breaking even with their power costs and no point in running them.

Not the greatest day to watch from high 670's to low 620's - http://www.coindesk.com/price/ . So we lost a little more then 50 dollars per BTC value. I'm wondering with halving so close some are selling hedging bet's. They might have waited to right before having and sold some. I personally am more interested in long term holding. So I really want to see price after halving, I think we will see some sell but hope we go up again overtime.

Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: RichBC on July 08, 2016, 05:51:11 AM Yes I think the Halving rise and peak has been and gone. Question now is how low are we going and will we build again? I think we could easily see 550 or even 450 again?
Hash wise we are are a pretty stable Period to date Run Rate of -3% at the moment. Rich Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: alh on July 08, 2016, 05:12:26 PM Putting aside the speculative aspects of BTC via buying and selling for a moment, we are just about 1 day until the halving (i.e. 142 blocks).
Bitcoin Difficulty: 213,398,925,331 Estimated Next Difficulty: 216,957,196,592 (+1.67%) Adjust time: After 1485 Blocks, About 10.4 days Hashrate(?): 1,530,803,743 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 10.0 minutes 3 blocks: 30.1 minutes 6 blocks: 1.0 hours Updated: 12:10 (45.0 seconds ago) Still in the range of $640/coin.

Not sure it will stick around post halving but it does group all the links we frequent. http://codacoin.info/halving.php

My gear has been shut off for a couple months due to summer heat, hopefully when it cools down later this year it will still be worth my time, effort, and $ to have a miner or two in the mix.

During winter I am able to get away with much less, which is nice lower overhead. It has been pretty mild really for the most part where I am in the Midwest. I do expect having to change what miners are profitable for me, after it I'm guessing all need to be S9 to make sense but will run numbers after. I also dabble in Ether now for fun. Not sure if it will pay off as big as I would like but the chance to play with GPU's again was to hard to pass up. I expect them to be running for quiet a while. But price is really not doing bad 655 on coinbase. Will be an interesting week though to watch price.

Then i just let it go for a while ... even considered giving all i know to dave bitcoin to try to hack my password.. today while weeding my garden it dawned on me a variation of the password i hadnt tried.. low and behold that was it ;D ;D ;D.. And it couldnt have come at a better time.. get some shit paid off .. and now may even consider to buy an s9. just to keep a small foot in the game. I cant ever go as big as i had in past. turned out to burn me big time. Ahh what a day.. one hell of a way to spend the halving:). btw im only going to sell 1/4 now. but this makes me keep a much closer eye on eth now that i have a larger stake then just 420 mhs mining rig.. anyway sorry for the off topic.

Since I don't know jack about eth:
"So i bought 1 btc worth of eth back on the presale" Can you explain what this means? What is/was "the presale"? I assume this means that you gave somebody 1 BTC, and they gave you N "Ethers"? You then took those N "Ethers" and got back more than 1 BTC after some period of time? Thanks for the education (If it's OK with Phil on his thread)!

I would guess he's having an amazing day if he got into pre-sale account with 1 BTC. Price they say on blog "The price of ether is initially set to a discounted price of 2000 ETH per BTC, and will stay this way for 14 days before linearly declining to a final rate of 1337 ETH per BTC.

Thanks for the education (If it's OK with Phil on his thread)! It is okay. The coin was launched via a pre-sale a while back more then a year ago. I am thinking he did very well on his purchase. 2000 x $10.50 = 20K 1337 x 10.50 = 14k Either number is good. maybe a 300-700 usd investment.

Thats one heck of a gain:) Ive already got coinbase asking for more documentation then ive already given them.. which is ok.. Just a driver id verification. on a 3 btc sell i thought was odd.. but ehh thats ok with me. once i supplied the sale went thru as normal back when i mined with 80 ths they didnt ask too many questions when i was pulling out over 5k usd in btc to pay for electricity. but more regulation has come into play.. ahh those were the days. Honestly cant figure out why i miss it. but it is fun to tinker with all the equipment i ran. Got one heck of a pile of it in the garage. hell some of it didnt even run a year but illinois still wants that use tax :P edit i was able to get in on the first days at 1 btc = 2k eth ;D Best Regards d57heinz Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: d57heinz on July 08, 2016, 09:18:32 PM Yet a little more off topic.

I mined BTC and LTC for a short while back in early 2012. I mined and slurped from faucets about 0.07BTC and some of it helped pay (https://blockchain.info/tx/b23cdadbfe79464c02d23aa768ebb1539d7ceb055b41e0e13eb17b9c9dae9341) for a @sidehack modded S7-LN. The LTC, however totaled a bit over 7k coins. When I remembered that I had some, and then checked the price it was a bit over $4.00/LTC, and so I sold it in chunks all the way up to almost $6.00/LTC. Some of the proceeds paid some bills, some bought ETH, some bought BTC which then paid for the S7LN, and I still have some LTC. Some days you're the bug, some days you're windshield.

Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: RichBC on July 10, 2016, 07:09:14 AM So the halving has been and gone without any great drama. Except........ that Yesterday was +4.86% with 151 Blocks and the Run Rate Today, could just be variance, is currently at a very frisky +20%. Period to Date Run Rate is now just into positive territory at +0.41%.
So if there was any powering down of old gear it has been more than compensated for by new gear being switched on. Rich Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are yet to open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: alh on July 10, 2016, 07:39:30 AM I think it will take weeks for the effects of the halving to actually observed or felt. I don't have a particular reason to think that folks would just "switch off" hardware when block 420,000 rolled around. Those folks would most likely have been selling their hardware, as I should have done. Anybody that recently bought hardware was planning on running it and is unlikely to change their mind quickly.
As always I think that difficulty changes will follow in the direction of BTC price. For most folks, BTC price is THE key driver in their decisions. Obviously electricity price is important, but that's a pretty stable and predictable value, whereas BTC price is not. Interesting to follow the next couple of months.

Surprisingly no drop in hashrate, the new plugged S9s could exactly match the unplugged very old gear which become unprofitable after halving, at least for this difficulty period and current price. Seems no afterhalving drama at all, hashrate seems oscilating around 0 so far.

I expected a huge drop in the difficulty after the halving, but nope. Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th?picks are open! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: notlist3d on July 12, 2016, 09:31:50 PM Bitwisdom still pretty good number's and no huge jumps on it which is nice to see after halving:
Bitcoin Difficulty: 213,398,925,331 Estimated Next Difficulty: 216,741,891,840 (+1.57%) Adjust time: After 874 Blocks, About 6.0 days Hashrate(?): 1,572,556,394 GH/s Coinbase almost hitting 670 currently. So a little bit of gain on coin value which is always nice to see. Around 12 hours or so ago we were in high 640's so around 20 dollars or so currently up in a day. Which for me makes it a good day.

Many still mine because they believe in Bitcoin rise. On paper BTC still has a chance to get to over $100k. There is chance for Bitcoin to go over $100k, and quite possible given the dollar inflationary nature. But im not sure about timescale, so how many of us be still here when it finally happens. If it happens in few years, the electricity used to mine Bitcoin would be pretty big. I guess many more halvings needed for this to be possible, though short time lasting bubble is always possibility for such insane price not backed by mining cost.

No drop in hashrate so far, so maybe we might see another hashrate spike near the end of difficulty period, or just substantial amount of ordered gear arrives and helps the difficulty to go up bit more in this week. Just my reasoning for picking almost +3%, when it seems almost +1% real time value only so far.

My current theory is that rather then waiting for the electricity bill (which if of a certain value) the miners are right now in some sort of a Canadian stand off waiting for the others to turn down their miners first. A lot depends on your setup . lets say you were doing the real cheap power old gear setup you had 1000 s-5's at 6 cent power about 1.05 ph. you were earning 1.143 btc a day or 729 usd a day you are now losing .0944 btc or 62 usd a day So you are close to break even rather then break up the farm you mine a few days and decide to turn off. you are a winner with this farm as you mined with it from January 2014 when you pruchased the gear at 300 usd a unit. So now you shut it down you wait and see if you can get lot of s-7s cheap your breakeven on a 200 dollar s-7 would be 165 days but right now you shut your self down while you wait and see if you can get a lot of cheap s-7's Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th? picks are closed! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: adaseb on July 15, 2016, 09:29:06 PM The power bill is delayed however.

In my area it can take up to 3 months to get an actual power bill. They manually check each riser usually 3 times a year and your rate is prorated. Absolutely true. my bills are monthly in house with 1 of 4 an auto bill. This is good since as you say every 4 months is the norm. This means only very few people have seen a bill since the ½ ing it has only been about 9 or 10 ten days so if every miner in the world has 30 day billing only 1 of 30 to 10 of 30 days are on a new bill. And for those on longer plans most people have not fully faced the ½ effects. Lets pretend all losing gear is being turned off once a new bill comes. (not true) lets pretend there is 400ph in losing gear now mining (may be true) we will have a month or two downward trend for difficulty maybe slowly going from 213 now to 180ish in sept-oct then the trend up will happen. this could be very good for those grabbing a s-9 or two. I still think bitmaintech has made an error on the price and should be selling the gear right now at 2200 not 1970 or so. Basically I believe they would still sell gear at the 2200 dollar level.

I will not complain as it is nice to see a negative I thought positive for sure, but will be happy to be wrong in this case. The BTC value also not to bad... I'm finding it hard to complain :). At coinbase were sitting around high 690's, almost at 670. It did dip for a bit but only around 7 dollar's so really again not much bad there could be much worse. I went into halving with a lot of expectations and it's really been mild ... I should have been more optimistic as after halving has not been terrible.

That drop has reversed. We are really close to 0%. I still see more drops in the future. As people see their profits turn to losses. We will be getting downward pressure on the hash rate. Bitmaintech has such a power position at the moment I simply see them selling the s-9 as high as possible for as long as they can. Other shit can happen a strong price drop to 500 usd would really shake shit up.

Of course the question is do we get it? Or does bitmaintech drop the s-9 down to 1000 usd and crush us? The game has become very much what will bitmaintech do with s-9 sales. So far : the s-7ln = 291 the s-7 = 440 the s-9 = 1863 All staying the same here is one of their big btc addy's: https://blockchain.info/address/1KwA4fS4uVuCNjCtMivE7m5ATbv93UZg8V looks like 53 s-9's sold from 7-16 12:42 to 7-18 16:42 roughly 53 x 3 = 159 coins 108,000 usd I pulled an older and the newest set of records I get 288,000 usd in sales I have an over lap of of two transactions that look to be 9 btc and 3 units so 282,000 in sales in a 2016-07-14 20:10:02 to 2016-07-18 12:46:02 time frame I left out any amount under 2.5btc since that may be other products like the s-7, s-7ln psu's etc. So in under 4 days 282,000 usd in btc sales for the s-9 .. They have other accounts they also take in bank transfers. This is about 415 btc. I have to think the weekend slows sales a bit. But the high price method for s-9 sales is good if you got early batches. Code: Bitcoin Address Addresses are identifiers which you use to send bitcoins to another person. this is the prior sales note I overlapped 2 sales this is 180,000 usd in forty hours!

We are really close to 0%. I still see more drops in the future. As people see their profits turn to losses. We will be getting downward pressure on the hash rate. I rather expect around 0 or very small difficulty rise in the next few months. The reason is the new S9 units might sell faster than unplugging much larger number of old generation units reguired (Th/s wise). I dont see Bitmain has problem selling S9 for almost 2 grand, and I think it is fair price for anyone who pays around 5 cents for the electricity.

Does anybody have a stats of USB miners still on? And I guess that a lot of other old miners are in the same situation. ....or am I giving them too much credit?

That's pretty much impossible to tell, any estimate you want to make based on 0.25W/GH and lower fall apart when people have free electricity. There are definitely people out there mining (USB for certain and likely s5/s7LN/s7/s9) on free electricity, and there's really no way to know how much hashpower that may represent both in pools and solo mining.

There are a TON of usb sticks that I think turned into collector's items. Even today people spend way to much for asic miner stick's. They were smart making multiple color's as it seems there are people that want to collect them all. But as far as how many are shown as decoration vs mining it's impossible to say. We really have no clue of how much of any miner is on the network. I personally sold off a lot of my usb stick's. I did lotto mine with compac's for a while there are still people using them. I sold all but three I kept a prototype, reviewer unit, and production model. I need to get them back up but other project's have taken priority. On a side note we lost a little bit of gain we had on price. Coinbase went down to 672 hopefully we can get it back up to 680 again. Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th? picks are closed! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: NeuroticFish on July 18, 2016, 08:39:56 PM Exactly my thoughts, just I was not sure. And this makes the predictions on how many miners will be disconnected even harder.
I think that the diff will still rise since people will not necessarily mine for today's profit and will not disconnect that easy.

As of now bitcoinwisdom has multiple errors on its site the 25 block reward vs 12.5 block reward in its calculator and the hashrate for the last 500 blocks seems wrong. http://nextdifficulty.com/ has us at 1500ph and does not reflect that gray spike at all https://bitcoinwisdom.com/assets/difficulty/bitcoin-hash_rate.png?1468874406 Title: Re: Diff thread July 4 July 18th? picks are closed! prize = $50 usd + ½ ing Post by: Mikestang on July 18, 2016, 09:49:34 PM Interesting, so are you thinking that down spike is some sort of error in the way bitcoinwisdom reads/records/calcs the network hash rate?
