32801  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Diff thread Jan 13 to Jan 27 picks are opened! on: January 17, 2016, 10:50:28 PM
s3 becoming unprofitable....at 0.10cents a kwh it is "break even" right now.  Home miners are still good with the "free" heat from the s3.  But big mining farms can no longer run the s3.  When the winter is over, that will be it !

Damn thats something.  I believe this to be a drop in diff, but this effect will be temporary.

It's not to surprising though S3 is a bit dated were talking 2 generation back, 3 if you include bitfury.  So that is a long time in mining time.

They were built like tanks on S3 so many will continue to run.   They will end up in cheap or free miners hands.   So they still have people who can run but it's getting smaller and smaller on amount feasible to use S3's.

first off picks are open!

but I can see small people using s-3's as space heaters

If you are in need of a space heater an s-3 is a better choice.  2 of them can replace this 1500 watt heater. Since they will run 24/7/the winter

It can  because a banker type guy  will point from the State of Washington.  He looks at it as a ledger game for profit.

The guy I know can drop 1 or 2 million into btc as a hedge to his real estate, stock and bond investments.

He has been picking my brain to understand the entire game along with watching and allowing the stat of the art miner (s-7) run in his office.

He is methodical and is most likely going to pass or pull the trigger this spring.  He has connections to a few guys in the state of Washington

and if they go forth and build a mine  they will point it at f2pool.  Basically it gets rid of variance.  

I am helping him to decide if he will do this.

So if they get a building and 3 cent power  put in 3 or 4 million  they could get.

2000 s-7's  at 4.7th each or 9.4ph.

This would make them second at f2pool.

Here are the top  payouts from f2pool last night. They paid 777 coins last night.

The biggest payout is below as are all payouts between 2 and 45 coins

Hey if I list my 13  that I have left and get 80 each  after expenses 60 each  I would net 780 usd.  Not bad.

 Grin   Just kidding. Grin

I paid 500 usd for the 20 I purchased.
And I think I had 2 tester sticks. For free


So far I sold 5 batch 1's at  a 2 dollar loss for 123  to buysolar.

I gave away 2 sticks on the stick club for contests.

I gave away the 2 test sticks for promo's on the diff spec thread.

ah not as bad as you think.  I am going to run something at it later in the week  rentals are very high at nicehash.
Yeah I am waiting for them to drop as well. Still have some balance on nicehash I need to run and will keep tossing more until a block is found.

I am going large at the moment 480th will do so for at least a few hours.

I tried 5 or 6 times from nice or west hash and never connected.

Bitcoin Difficulty:   113,354,299,801
Estimated Next Difficulty:   118,833,429,245 (+4.83%)
Adjust time:   After 1437 Blocks, About 10.1 days
Hashrate(?):   745,627,005 GH/s
Block Generation Time(?):   
1 block: 10.2 minutes
3 blocks: 30.4 minutes
6 blocks: 1.0 hours

When will picks open? After 1416 blocks or did I remember wrong? If it is, only 21 blocks left but this speed we need to wait 3.5 hours more. Cheesy

yes picks open at 1416  and close at 816

and that (+4.83%) is sooooo high    as a real time number we are negative see below

Jan 13  148 blocks    =    + 4 but it was a partial day 100 blocks for this adjustment in the time for 105 so it is -5
Jan 14  136 blocks    =  -8
Jan 15  124 blocks    = -20
Jan 16  136 blocks    =  -8
Jan 17       86 so far in the time for 93 = - 7

so we are -48 blocks  582 made vs 630 should be made  this (-7.61%)

while nice numbers  for now  the network has shown it can do 1000ph  that would be about 180 blocks at this diff  and two of them in a row we lose the -48 and become +24


Here is a read from hashnest:

"admin  on  2016-01-15 16:22:55
 Because of  mining difficulty increase. Form 2016-01-13, antS3 's electricity fee is greater than 100% of mining revenues, antS3 mining contracts on Hashnest  enter a “redemption waiting period”. Form 2016-01-15 0:00 beijing time, the market of antS3 will close.

form 2016-01-13,if antS3's electricity fees are greater than revenues for a sustained period of ten continuous days, Hashnest reserves the right to retire the machines. When machines are retired, a user’s contract will then enter into the “hardware redemption period”.

Customers holding enough GH/s to constitute an entire machine of the associated type (e.g., 450 GH/s of Antminer S3) are eligible to convert that amount of GH/s into the used unit of the associated type. If a user does not have enough GH/s of the associated kind to exchange for actual hardware, then this user is not eligible for hardware redemption.

If owing to a rising exchange rate, the ratio of electricity fees to PPS payout is lower than 90% for a period of ten continuous days, then mining contracts will revert back to the PPLNS method.

从2016-01-13起,antS3的PPS理论收益已经不足以支付电费,antS3的算力进入赎回等待期,北京时间1月15日24:00起将关闭二级市场交易。

从1-13日起如果连续10天 电费收益比超过100%,antS3将进入赎回期,满足450GHS antS3算力的用户可以选择支付下架费和运费后赎回矿机。
 如果1-13日至23日期间 电费收益比连续10天低于90%, antS3 将恢复正常状态。"



The s-3's in question could be  20ph of 811 ph.  But we are down about 50-60 ph

yes you sent a pm to me  did we do any sales?  have I given your old account a positive trust?

32808  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: When (at which price) will BTC miners have to dump BTC to cover the costs? on: January 17, 2016, 01:59:05 PM
Depends on efficiency and power cost.

Play with my calculator: https://cryptominer.ca/bitcoin-mining-calculator and you'll be able to see when power cost is greater than revenue. Please note that default parameters are in CAD and not in USD.

We can see that for a S7 owner paying 52 USD / kWm will have to power off is miner if the Bitcoin price drop to 105 USD.
A S5 owner (.51 J / GH) will turn it off at 200 USD.
A S3 owner (.78 J / GH) will turn it off at 305 USD.

You can also compute it analytically instead of going through trial/error.
Just solve the inequation:

(Btc price) * (BTC/TH/mthly rate) > (kWm cost) * (Hardware efficiency)
(Btc price) > (kWm cost) * (Hardware efficiency) / (BTC/TH/mthly rate)

The current BTC/TH/mthly rate is .1331. Then
(Btc price) > (kWm cost) * (Hardware efficiency) / .1331

If we input the kWm cost of 52 USD and  hardware efficiency of .78 to verify our previous S3 profitability calculation
(Btc price) > 52 * .78 / .1331
--> 304.73 USD


Thanks for this awesome answer! That means that if the price reaches something like 320/350 dollars, the price will have to rise again.

Or miners will dump coins and btc will fall again and it will mean the end of btc... Which is still higly unlikely to happen!

No  because the discussion  has no mention of positive difficulty and or  negative difficulty  adjustments.

look at the negative adjustments

Also surely F2Pool is way to big to just be a Public Mining Pool, must be someone's data centre?

They offer steady payouts  this is a huge reason people use them.

Think like an accountant  not like a geek.---------- Sounds nasty not meant to be nasty. But if you are business oriented you mine here.

I have a limited 2 cent power deal with a friend he is a banker not a geek.

He insists that this 1 s-7 is to be pointed at you guessed it f2pool.

If  you back a person with cash you don't want variance. As much as I don't like some of f2pool's methods the steady daily payout  has a lot of meaning.

From what I heard, Mike had a few hundred bitcoin. I've never heard that he was a miner. His impact on the price is not that direct.

The price downturn was due to his comments and exit.

And maybe sprinkle in a bit of bad (but not unexpected) news about Crypsy. As an aside, I completely cleared out of Crypsy months ago and never looked back.

Really I think that Mike leaving will have a good effect. It is very likely that we'll get some protocol change, even if it's only the move to 2 MB blocks as per Bitcoin classic.

People can argue all day long about how Bitcoin should be changed to support growth. But something has to happen, and it has to happen relatively quickly.

My hope is that Mike's dramatic exit will force something to happen in the near term so that Bitcoin can continue to be relevant and maintain its potential for greatness.

I don't think it will force much though.  His as you put it dramatic, which is very true leaving with timing of cryptsy going belly up.   So there were two bad decent sized articles on most bitcoin news sites. 

And the more the comes out of cryptsy the scarier it is.  They sit on being hacked for months which is crazy they knew they were doomed, but kept it internal.  So really bad news.   Add to this someone who some respected saying bitcoin is dead is a huge story.

Does anyone know why he made such a public and hurtful comment?   Also it interesting he sold at the higher rates..... he did not deal with downside of his comments so I have a problem with that it's like inside info.

Time will tellwhat he did for or against BTC , but for today  we are not making many blocks at all

43 blocks  in the time we should have 58  that is  a huge down turn  -25.86%  for that 9 hour 40 minute time period.

Dare I say  we could go - ? %

I am curious to know if anyone know if Mike Hern had any significant amount of mining equipment.

The sharp downturn in short term (504 blocks) seems to coinside with Hern announcing that he is no longer going to be associated with Bitcoin.

If not, then I wonder if the apparent decline on hashrate on the network has anything to do with Hern "leaving" Bitcoin

So you think he  shut down a farm?

Makes sense if he had an older farm that was becoming marginal profit.

Say a 20-30ph  from s4's    of course 30ph is only 1/25 of the network,  but still it could be something like that.

Still locked out on my rentals.  Will try something else. To get in.

Yeah self-mod is the way to go.

I do all my threads that way.

oh I have 100th  but .01 btc  I will monitor close and add some more coin at the right time.

so far the pool is not allowing the rental

still dead



Might be DNS propagation... Although there are already a couple of rentals pointed to the pool...

well now someone jacked price way up so I did not get in yet.  I will look later.

or he had sold a ton of coins at 450 dropping price to 430.  then  made the announcement  hoping coins would that a big drop  so for every coin he sold at 450  he could get bargains at 350-360

Many forget  coins  were dirt cheap  when he started.  He may have 50,000 coins.

I earned 1 coin a day from august 2012 until dec 2012  about 125 coins.  the  whole network  was about 20th 

 My house is mining 25th right now as I type!!

Unfortunately if that is true, it also shows how vulnerable Bitcoin still is, if a single individual can manipulate the market in that way?

Rich



will yeah  from 2009 to 2012  more then  10 million coins were mined  the first ½ ing was at the 10.5 million coin mark

So lets say 10% are lost ( pure guess)

That  still makes 9 million coins all under 40 bucks  in fact more like all under 1 dollar  as the first big spike to 40 bucks  was brief.



So if you had 10000 coins at a buck  and started selling them  during the march -april 2013 runup to 240  even say sell 5000 at 240  that is 1,200,000

  Keep 600,000 in cash. so you are at 5000 coins  buy 600,000 at 120 each  after the crash from 240 to 120  you are back to 10,000 in coins  and 600,000 in cash.

It is the month of June or July.  2013.   So when coins go mad in  Oct-Dec 2013.  sell all 10,000 coins some at 500 some at 750 some at 1000

average of 750 x 10,000 = 7,500,000  all cash no coins.   

That is not a lot of correct guesses.

 I am sure quite a few players with older coins.  That have held and maybe decided to get out of the game.
We are very young industry.  Lots can happen good or bad.

What a difference a Week makes... From a solid +9%, (170 Black days) and I would have said that the rate going out of the period was higher than that. Now just had a -15% (122 Block Day)

Do people think the lower hash rate is at this stage related to the Exchange rate drop, or was the hash Rate down before that happened?


Rich

Both not or at least that is my  my guess.  Oh we picked up today

110 blocks in the time for 108  which is under 2%

  So far we are really doing well. for the first 3 days.

Yes funny how the first couple of days often look to be well down and then pick up? Looks like we will be close to par for Today? However still well done at -6.7% for the period so far.

Rich

Btc value is also doing a little rebound from the top 350ish to 386.   I'm just hoping we can get back to 400 sell wall again.  I really like seeing that sell wall mentally.

So really feeling better it could have been a lot worse.  I think the cryptsy news added with the Mike Hearn story.... I think he could have been a little less public almost seems like he wanted to hurt Bitcoin.  Also Cryptsy was attacked in July ( http://www.coindesk.com/cryptsy-bankruptcy-millions-bitcoin-stolen/ ).   If people have not learned yet do not keep your coins on a exchange it is a bad idea for most.

Yes I think he set out to hurt Bitcoin... Good to see a little bounce, and I did buy some at what I hope was close to the bottom?  Smiley


Rich

I think you can think Mike Hearn for a lot of that profit.  I'm hoping we go back up and he fades into background.   I just hope he keeps quiet saying things like bitcoin is dead is a great headline, even if not true.   

It is a little scary he want's to hurt Bitcoin it seems.  I'm a little afraid of future remarks getting picked up in news articles and have same effect.
