Setting up new diff thread Dec 6 to Dec 20 picks closed.

[philipma1957]

And I am banning any more new members from this point on during this adjustment period.

Thank your for doing this.  I think looking into it for all future ones might be a decent idea.  Just seems odd we get 3 when week before we had none, but it is a even higher prize so could be coincidence but I normally dont believe in coincidence.

Price is going down some looks like were around 421 now.. so not the 450 we had earlier.  But still nice.

Bitwisdom is scary to be honest:

Well all three newbies have yet to pm me about being allowed to win the usb stick. (They would need to give me a mailing address for the stick to be sent now rather then later)

  which makes me think we did the correct thing here.

[Tmdz]

Im sure they all had the same address

81 so far in the time we should be at 79     so today is a good day

we have about 26-36 hours for picks to end.

[notlist3d]

Bitwisdom is a scary number to see.... I did not expect to see that.  Is this cray numbers the new norm?

I like the btc price of 426, but wish difficulty would slow down.  I want to mine some more coins before it does these jumps.

[wlefever]

+19.9 = wlefever for me please.  I was going to go in the +17% range, but I just keep thinking this one will stay where it's at or higher than 19%.   

[ezeminer]

Satoshi save the small miners....

We could end two days earlier at this rate.

End of day still crazy difficulty.... I hope we go down but don't expect it.

I still wonder on price where we will end up at end of period.  430 right now is not bad.  I'm happy I kept coins through the 230 day's to say the least.

This one will be gentle compared to next one. ~400PH almost ready to go online...

maybe this one was already bitfury ?

[RichBC]

Looking at the pool Comparison I think the recent stuff has been AntPool & F2pool. Bitfury yet to come....

[vortexz]

dammit.
how much does 400 PH mean ? a 50 % diff increase ?

50MW is not 400Ph/s, it is probably more 150Ph/s, or ~200Ph/s at most(at 0.25J/Gh efficiency)

153 blocks for pick to end
we have about 20-26 hours for picks to end.

 Guys remember the 212 block day  it came and it went well it must have been bitfury testing see below

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/bitfury-opening-third-carbon-neutral-bitcoin-mining-operation-georgia-1532998


 No one know how good they are , but

 50 mw x 3 =  150 ph
 50 mw x 4  = 200 ph
 50 mw x 5 =  250 ph

we did 212 vs a norm of 144  but all the other days we are doing close to 160

so we did 212 vs 160   which is 52/160 = 32.5%  so .325 x 566ph = 183ph

So if it works and does not explode (we can hope for that)  and based on the monster 1 day spike    they are going to add 150 to 200 ph. 

 This is good new not bad news.  we are doing about 650ph this period add 200 = 850 ph lastly next month some more will  be added.

So by my birthday (Jan 27)  we will be touching 999ph   or 1eh   I think  eh   comes after ph.

Now go back to sept we were 404 so 404 to 999 = a factor of 2.5 price was   230 now 430 a factor of  1.87

so if you did not upgrade your gear   2.5 is higher then 1.87

but if you switched out to s-7's  you power is 2x better.

so 2.5 diff jump  would not be so bad since  with 1.87 price jump and 2x power improvement  the good factor is 3.74

What is better is if you have long held s-5's from last jan's price war  you can still mine them and finally order your new s-7's today.

We will then go flat like last year
