Looks like the equipment is coming back on. Or ASICS?

No, these are now "diff hoppers", people on the brink of profitability who wait for the diff to drop, then mine until the diff rises, then stop. They did so numerous times on the LTC chain which changes more frequently, but they're doing it now to the BTC chain.

Up up up and down
Turn turn turnaround
Round round roundabout
And over again
Gun gun son of a gun
You are the only one
Makes any difference what I say

What happened to the concept that btc price would increase massively after the reward halving? I see a price that’s pretty close to what it was at a 50btc reward.

Yeah I know. Maybe once all these holidays are over people will change. By the end of January I recon the price will go up 25% or the difficulty will go down 25%

I think everyone is holding their breath about ASICs, that will change the game. I think people are trying to squeeze the last bit of profit out of their rigs before the ASICs start arriving close to the end of Jan/begginning of Feb. My GPU rigs can stay afloat until 4.5mil difficulty, and my FPGAs at about 45mil diff, where I'll be getting off the mining train. I'll stick around in BTC, but no more mining for me...

Does anyone know the normal length you have to mine in order to acquire 1 BTC. Also, how many computer's does a "pool" usually consist of? Like 20+, or below 5?

Pools can consist of thousands of different users, and those users may have multiple miners connected.

How long it takes to mine 1 BTC depends on your setup. My setup puts out about 3200 Mhash/s at the current difficulty I mine one bitcoin approximately every 2 days.

Thanks for the info. How much did your hash-rate cost, or basically your set-up to acquire 1BTC per day. I'll be investing in 7 months (I know a really long time away) but I kind of want to get an idea of what mining is right now.

What do you think the top notch/most expensive set-ups could make you per day on one computer?

I'll have 5-6 computers and free power.

You can see what I have in my signature. The whole game will be different in 7-8 months. You won't be able to mine with just a computer, you'll need specialized devices called FPGA miners or ASIC miners. there are plenty of threads in the Hardware subsections.
