Title: How much GH/s to add?? Post by: johstacy on May 12, 2014, 04:39:05 PM So I was wondering and maybe someone knows a calculator or something out there that would have this answer. But with today's Difficulty increase if a person is running 100 GH/s before the Diff increase how many GH/s would you need to increase by to make the same amount of BTC after the Difficulty increase?
word problems... I know they suck Title: Re: How much GH/s to add??

I know they suck Well, if difficulty increases by 25% for example, you would need 25% more hashrate than before. It's simple maths. So, you would need 125 GH/s if difficulty increases by 25%.

Post by: johstacy on May 12, 2014, 04:58:47 PM ok so today's increase was 10.66 % so in theory for every 100 GH/s you are running to keep pace you need another 11 GH/s... so if your running 1 TH/s you have to increase by 110 GH/s roughly every two weeks... correct me if I'm off.
Thanks! Title: Re: How much GH/s to add??

Thanks! Yes, but depends on the difficulty increase, it isn't the same every time. Title: Re: How much GH/s to add??

Thanks! you are off. 10.66% means multiply by 1.1066 so 100 = 110.66 then 110.66 = 122.456356 then 122.456356 = 135.510203549 but the easy way is use bitcoin calc https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculator put in 100 for diff put in 10% for jumps and you get this . look at the diff column it is your 100 then 110 then 121 then 133 so your hash would need to jump that much to keep pace if jumps were exactly 10% do 4 charts one for 5% one for 10 % one for 15 % and one for 20 % most likely the real anwers for your needed hash are in that range of jumps. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1600x1200q90/835/wxv6.png Title: Re: How much GH/s to add??

Title: Re: How much GH/s to add?? Post by: johstacy on May 12, 2014, 08:17:44 PM I like what I earn now and I don't have big money to at hash rate but I would like to grow as I can be positive in the cash flow side. At this point I was to get an idea if I invest into another Antminer S1 what is the potential number of difficulty increases that will take me & I need to invest again and so on.
thats all Title: Re: How much GH/s to add?? Post by: PeterReid on May 12, 2014, 09:18:29 PM obviously the more the better , In the future your investment will pay off 8)
Title: Re: How much GH/s to add?? Post by: johstacy on May 12, 2014, 09:33:01 PM I dont know. But I still do not understand the economic benefits of all this. So far my friend spends money. I do not think I'm ready to spend my personal money, to be honest.

Post by: byt411 on May 12, 2014, 09:40:40 PM obviously the more the better , In the future your investment will pay off 8) Having more hashpower does not mean you will break even more quickly. But if you have already broken even, then yes, it's better. Title: Re: How much GH/s to add?? Post by: fattypig on May 16, 2014, 03:01:20 PM obviously the more the better , In the future your investment will pay off 8) You calculate your profit based on price per GH/s. So its the same... |
