That is like at least 2PH/s worth in a single day. CRAZY! I am surprised they aren't sold out yet.

Makes you wonder, if they are selling this many S7s how many are they keeping for themselves?

And how many more they plan on building.

If I were Bitmain I would sell every single one. Instant ROI with very little risk, no worries about halving or anything, and they can put all that money into the next gen hardware development.

And they can use the info they have learned from all the batches.  So they can make the best of the best for them self when they go to fill it up again.

So I agree lot's of good reasons to sell current stock of miners and replace.  And also they can do a even bigger batch and that brings down prices.  So it's pretty much all pro's besides a data center without miners in it temporary.

Price is headed up at 418 right no and going up.   So makes sense difficulty will go up.

Hopefully we can add a little more value today to coins.  Time will tell.  But it's done a decent job going up in value.

[zebedee]

1405 blocks so I think I can post / guess.

+12.1 =  zebedee

fcking nuts.  Bitcoin showing the world how the pundits suck at predicting anything.  Free market FTW.  Screw the central planners, including those in core dev.

[vortexz]

oh well, seems that this diff will be even higher than the last 3

[jonnybravo0311]

Hopefully the price continues to rise as difficulty does.

+14.8 = jonnybravo0311

+17.7 = Chris_Sabian 

[vortexz]

+17.7 = Chris_Sabian 

Hopefully, not that high !

[Chris_Sabian]

+17.7 = Chris_Sabian 

Hopefully, not that high !

I hope not but I need a guess...  This past summer and fall reminds me a little of the summer 2013.  There was a steady 5 - 10% increase in difficulty with steady prices and then 30-40% increases in the fall of 2013 when ASICS came out in force.

[edonkey]

The cats are really hoping that things calm down. I hope so too because the litter box is getting hard to keep up with.

+10.1 = edonkey

[anthonycamp]

if you stay with the same miner diff rises and you get deprecated into mining but if diff rises lower than price of THS to mine into the hardware you are all good and mining will prosper
