Hashnest old PACMiCs coming back into service?

With the Antminer S2 sitting at 103.38% maintenance/payout we could see old contracts being dusted off in the coming days. From my calculations, any price above $279USD at the current difficulty should be profitable.

i would avoid pacmic, and go directly for the hashing power, maybe buying the whole hash of a certain asic, like the s7, or the s5 if i don't have enough btc to invest

anyway you should, i think, move this to the mining section

Personally, I'm all for the raw mining GHS but I believe that those contracts have ended and the hardware has been supposedly sold. I doubt we would see S2 and UMISOO GHS markets return, but the PACMiC contract does not end until the principal has been paid back.

Also, I don't know how to move posts. Someone moved it here.

PACMIC V1 and V3 weren't too bad, but V2 and V4 seem like they weren't quite as good, long time to repay. I like them as a hedge of sorts. Trading gh can be profitable if you catch the swings and they generate a few sats while they hang out.
