Well they say they will sell chips.

If they sell chips better gear will be available.

We are going to have a very interesting six months.

Also notice they said they launched a 40 mega watt farm.

This is those crazy high jumps to 190 -  210 blocks

Aww, let say they can manage 0.1 J/GH @ wall, so we will see with this 40 MW farm another 400 PH/s soon.

It really is crazy looking at the blocks.  I sent a payment today... conformations so fast it was ridiculous.

I don't know if I would believe everything they say they will sell.  Sometimes they change their mind.  Remember they said they would sell that lightbulb?  I would still buy one for fun of it but they never sold them.   So I will need to see them selling to others to believe, and I'm guessing if you buy from them and they do it your getting a considerable amount of the batch.

We have been seeing 180 to 220 ph so maybe 40mw and .1 gh are not true.

But the 180 to 220 ph jump on those 195 block days is real.

There is a plus side to this as this jump may be the last super jump for a month or so.

I think the s-7 is going to drop a lot in price.

The other big question is what will they sell to the public, and how competitive will their prices be?  I wanted to buy some S7, but I tend to agree their price is likely to go down even more early next year.  I think I will wait that out.

Finally it's under 20 percent again. I hope it goes down to 17.89 percent on Friday.

yeah mine what you got and hold at least ½ the coins.



Note:

I cleaned up thread and deleted posts meant for other thread.

Today is almost over and blocks are at about 165  this would mean bitfury powered the immersion 40 MW  mine off.

I would if they are having an over heating issue.  Someone needs to see how cold it is at the new  mine  in

11.1% day today.

Not good but not bad either.

11.1% day today.

Sad but that seems pretty great right now.  I would settle for 11 over the near 20.  Near 20 really does scare me.

Btc still on a slow slide its around 450 so not bad.  But 460 was nicer.

okay people 3 new members  all joined the forum this month  they are marked above.  suchmoon and I have decided what to do with prize btc and prize compac usb.

    NO New members will not be accepted in this contest they will need at least one month old  account and decent  postings.

I have put down how those three new accounts will be handled.  AND no more new accounts.

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

No more for this adjustment.   if you have been on this  site for months , but not in this game that is okay!

11.1% day today.

Not good but not bad either.

is still to be accounted? because it look again 80B the diff, it should be near 90B

with that diff, the s7 is losing 1/10 of its haspower

[radiumsoup]

with that diff, the s7 is losing 1/10 of its haspower

well, to be fair... *everything* is losing a relative share of the aggregate hashpower, not just the S7s.

[VirosaGITS]

with that diff, the s7 is losing 1/10 of its haspower

well, to be fair... *everything* is losing a relative share of the aggregate hashpower, not just the S7s.

(Over 2 months)

No real need to complain, so far the BTC price has more than kept up with the difficulty raise. After the next diff increase in 1~ day, the difficulty will have raised by 50% for a 35%~ loss in BTC income.

However the value of BTC has literally doubled (from 220$ usd~ to 440$~ usd), so anyone who were planning to ROI their miners when calculated at 220$ made bank by now.

It was stable at 230 for the longest time.  I have to remind myself this when I look at that crazy difficulty coming.

And all the miners who mined during 230 and made profit... now are looking good.  To double your USD value is very big and hard to do in most investments.  So a huge upswing on your holdings.

It was an interesting time for sure.  The difficulty doubled in what, 1 year?  The price was pretty stable around the ~$230 point for most the time.  There were a few increases and decreases but stable all around.  I didn't mine much because it was summer and I didn't need the extra heat.

[adaseb]

Today is done at +6.5%


Less then 24 hours left. Most likely it will be between +17-19%


Good luck to all who chose those numbers.

I am in that range.  I suppose it is good luck for those who picked but it is rather bittersweet...

Yea honestly it's hard to be happy when it's in that area.  I hope it goes down next period.

Value over 450 so still doing ok. But not enough if 20ish becomes the new normal.
