Well, I see it a little more positive right now. We need another 130 PH/s to raise the difficulty up by 10% -> or in other numbers thats like 27196 of new S7's (worth $15.3 million without shipping) on the net.

I can't say yes or no. I don't know if BTC will be ruined by the ½ ing. I will do 1 game past the ½ ing just because it should be an interesting time for all of us. After that I may stop. I no longer do a signature campaign which helped to fund this game. Also the original starter of the game no longer adds funds. https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficultyBitcoin Difficulty: 166,851,513,283 Estimated Next Difficulty: 174,923,952,518 (+4.84%) dropping good!

I was hoping for that, and not necessarily because of my vote...

I wonder what´s the total investment in bitcoin mining. Must be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Miners plus facilities and manpower. Maybe billions. Some of it must be pretty squeezed by now what with the big difficulty increases since last year. Investments usually mean debts.

Make a new miner and the s-7 drops price to knock you out. So the game changes from having good miners to having cheap power. A one cent power cost and the s-7 crushes a .125 watt bitfury at four cent power. Or a two cent power cost makes the better s-7 plus which only bitmaintech has beat any other gear.

Yeah, it´s almost like they´ve been trying to wipe out the competition in the mining since last autumn. They have the best of both worlds anyway, they both make the equipment which is excellent in any gold rush, and they are a big player in mining.

They have been smart on being able out out price others gear. Bitmain crushed SP20's with S5, they made a cheaper option and started a price war. And they won. It seems to be repeating looking at S7 they have made it as low cost as I think they can with 1 fan variant. I expect S7 to remain king in super low data centers as they can buy now and likely even after having is electricity 1-2 cents they I would guess make a profit still till a point. For "normal" electricity people we will need next gen chips but these mega centers likely will not even after having.

The peak hash for this period is much higher than it has been the previous 3 times it came and went. For a while there my 7% guess was on target, still might be if more of those machines turn on again in the next couple days.
I hope we can keep playing after the halving, should be easy to crowd fund it. The problem would be finding one person willing to hold funds and pay out.

It´s quite stubborn. With one and a half day to go; block generation time is 9.4 minutes. It´s going to be solidly up.

Best hope is that 90-150 ph "mystery" farm is powered off for the next day and 1/2 That could drop us to 3.9-4.5 @ Mikestang I do not mind running the thread / contest. But unless something turns up for me funding it will be to hard to do. We can worry about it in July cause three months in BTC time is three years in real world time ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Looks to me like we'll end below 5%, though not by a lot. Probably still to high for my guess.... ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif) Bitcoin Difficulty: 166,851,513,283 Estimated Next Difficulty: 174,952,145,724 (+4.85%) Adjust time: After 187 Blocks, About 1.2 days Hashrate(?): 1,308,789,162 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 9.3 minutes 3 blocks: 28.1 minutes 6 blocks: 56.1 minutes Updated: 0:25 (8.6 minutes ago) BTC price still nothing exciting: $420 Seems like the price has been stuck in a "trading range" for well over a month now.Should be less than 3 months until we bit block # 420,000 (i.e. the "halving").

I have no proof but I really think this is tied into S7's with new 1 fan version. One would think to redesign they had plans to make a good amount of them. Price is around 424. So above 420 hopefully that stays.

Looks like 6% is LIKELY at this late stage. 7% is quite POSSIBLE. That's a lot of hash rate in the last 10 days!!!
