Holy shit that drop in datacenter is insane.  Only 400 Sq ft for 12-16 PH/s!!  But how many of those will actually be deployed I wonder?

If i could just get a 10TH/s immersion cooled small container I could run silently I would be happy.

needs 1.5 mega watts    for 12ph


12ph now needs 3 mega watts


while very impressive it is a render not real

and it looks to be 8 by 50 feet and 16 feet tall

how do I supply it with 1.5 mega watts?

what does it cost?

1.5 mega watts = 6 mega btu  

  my homes furnace is 100k btc

so this unit will have 60 times the heat energy of my home.

it is about 6400 cubic feet.

my home is  25 by 45 by 25 or  28125 cubic feet.

so say my home is 4x the cubic feet    take 60 x the btu energy of my home and 4x it is 240x the heat per square inch.

 those fans on top will be putting out huge crazy heat.

has anyone seen their operating light bulbs?

Buy 2x S7's. Create a sealed container for the boards. Cover the boards with 3M Novec 7000 (heat sinks off/copper boiler). And find a way to cool down the Novec gas inside the container. Copper coil with running water/radiator or something like that.

I'm currently planning something similar. If I can get my hands on some Novec 7000, I'm going to try it with a couple of S1 boards first, to figure it all out.
Inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_vJbGgxPTU

If anyone know where I can buy some Novec 7000, please send me a PM.
I've tried contacting 3M, but haven't gotten a reply yet.

Price hit under 380, were around 377 right now.   Hopefully we see a change.   But this is opposite way as I hoped it would go.

Bitwisdom is back up but it is showing a high amount:
Bitcoin Difficulty:    120,033,340,651
Estimated Next Difficulty:    134,038,798,965 (+11.67%)
Adjust time:    After 1637 Blocks, About 10.4 days
Hashrate(?):    911,733,806 GH/s

Yesterday ended up being flat at the number of blocks found but price crashed -7% so not good either way.

We haven't seen the low yet I'm afraid but it will get better.  Hopefully one more retrace then we moon! All while seeing sub 5% adjustments would be great.

Today we will probably beat the 200blocks per day mark. We are already at +33% of blocks found for the day.

[RichBC]

Yes we were running around +6.5% Yesterday but a one very long Block, 1 1/2 Hours, dropped the rate to negative for the Day. Has rapidly corrected Today and we are back to +6.75% run rate for the period so far. Just shows you don't want to look too close at the Data, particularily early in a new period.

Today we will probably beat the 200blocks per day mark. We are already at +33% of blocks found for the day.

Run rate for the Day has now stabilised a little lower at around 28%, but definitely some hash has been added. I think we will see at least +26% / 180 Blocks, but only needs a few quick or slow Blocks to throw it either way.

[philipma1957]

I have 155 in 22 hours

we should be 132 in 22 hours

so I get 170 give or take 3 blocks.

170/144 = 1.18  x 859 =  1013 ph   last adjustment we did an average of 970ph four days in a row.

So while we are ahead of the 859 ph from last difficulty.  we are  also doing our first 1000ph+ day

Price is a little bit up today were around 380 right now.  So could have been worse on it falling down.    We still have a lot of time left in this period to see what happens.

Bitwisdom still has a high number:

Estimated Next Difficulty:    134,701,415,108 (+12.22%)

-1.2 = philipma1957  first pick if it wins i will roll it back in.

[RichBC]

Yesterday we made 169 Blocks, +17.36% for the day. Run rate for the period going out of Yesterday was +6.8% and has been climbing steadily Today and is now at +10.6%.

Today's rate (a bit dangerous to look at as based on a small number of Blocks)  is looking very high so far is running at +45% so if this continues we will be in for a Big Day (Perhaps +28%, 185 Blocks) and probably setting the scene for a High Period.... Remember next period includes CNY so a lot of incentive to get as much Hash as possible up and running before the Holiday.

[ezeminer]

So the real question is, are double digits back to stay? Because we're at 14% projected.

[Swordsoffreedom]

That projected difficulty is damn high for this point in time, makes me wonder what came online as I have not been looking at mining much the last few rounds well I'll go with an even + 10 this round.

+10.0 Swordsoffreedom

[tekno]

i guess next diff = %7.2

[ACAB]

+8.0 = ACAB

Bitcoinwisdom shows +14.63 projected increase but it's too much. %8 is good for next difficulty rise.
