So first full Day of the new Period and we did -4.17% with 138 Blocks. Slowish start this Morning and the Period to Date Run Rate sits at -5.9%. OK so far....

look at this screen shot:

There was recently a blackout in Seattle... that corresponds to the drop off of this spike.  Who has the 1 EH datacenter in Seattle that blew the grid?

[HerbPean]

adds to   172  so 166/172-1 =  (-3.488372093023%)

12 Digits after the decimal

The calculator on the Mac mini rounds to 12 digits.

And I know that there is a tiny chance of a number like

2.5999999999999999 which  would round to 2.60. Since my claculator only goes to 12 digits .

If indeed that happens  I will pay both Picks since the odds would be more then 1 billion to one.

At kexkey some may earn the,nickname "numbers". Some have called me Phillie numbers  as I am quick with math.

Sometimes you can refer to a person as your "numbers" guy. A slang that means you rely on that person for math choices because he is,good with numbers.

Yeah I was joking about all the rounding issue. I mean 12 digit should be plenty enough for what we are doing.

I figured you were.  i tried dry humor with my reply but it does not play well in type.

I would be extremely happy with a negative, I'm not sure we will see one though.  April 28 was technically a negative but not by much -0.01%.   It's been since March 4th since last decent negative -3.10%.  I hope I am wrong.

Bitwisdom is higher then real:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    199,312,067,531
Estimated Next Difficulty:    207,824,409,631 (+4.27%)
Adjust time:    After 1769 Blocks, About 11.8 days
Hashrate(?):    1,431,198,131 GH/s

Price has remained above 450 on coinbase is a good thing.  Were around 453 hopefully we can gain ground I really would love to see 460 again.

[Mikestang]

We might see a flat adjustment, but I doubt we'll see significant negative until after the halving, if even then.



Looks like the burn-in test of the next gen hardware is over.  My guess is now we will see the last gen stuff coming offline and being resold to make room for the new gear, and then the difficulty will go up up up.  When will we see a 500G difficulty?

my guess is we won't see 500diff very soon


the ½ ing and the new gear will kill off everything that is older for a lot of miners.

once the ½ ing happens  a 14 th machine using   .1 watts  is

 -  at a diff of 479 at 10 cent power pulls in  461 after power
- at a diff of   583 at 8 cent power pulls in 645 after power
- at a diff of 744 at 6 cent power pulls in 879 after power
- at a diff of 1154 at 4 cent power pulls in 1171 after power
- at a diff of 1546 at 3 cent power  pulls in 1350 after power

I used 5% diff jumps  based on the above  diff will not rise at 5%  and I used today as the day you start it up.  so if btc is going to work we are going to see flat growth  not 5% jumps

On adding I keep thinking we will see next gen.  I honestly am surprised there has not been anyone to release it yet.  I keep thinking we will see it before having from someone but I could be wrong.

If we don't see next gen before having it's going to get even tighter on profits at least for me.  But value took a good jump .. nice to see coinbase around 467 and China is awake now.  So hopefully we see it go up even more.

[RichBC]

Wow just up in the UK and look at the price... $472 Had to do a double take, does anyone know the reason?

Rich

Don't know reason why but I wont complain.  It seems that China is driving it I think looking at timing of it.  But I have not heard of any news or great things to be the reason China is pushing it up.

[RichBC]

Yes let's hope we can hold this price and then build on it. So Yesterday was -6.235% with 135 Blocks and this Morning off to a slow start with the Period to Date Run Rate down to -7.8%. Let's hope the Price & Hash Rate trends can continue, but getting both I guess is just a bit greedy...

[adaseb]

The high to beat is the $504 high from Nov 2015. After that we are approaching highs from 2014's.

Too bad I pretty much sold all my ASICs for GPUs.

346 blocks made


2 days     288
14 hours    84
40 min        4


376 = 0%

346/376-1 = (-7.978723404255%)  

This is great but we know they can add 1000ph anytime they want to.  They are pumping value to do sales. Along with Diff drop.

Buying an expensive s-9  at 450 a coin looks bad ,

 buying it at  650 a coin seems better.

We saw the big pump from 200 to 500 last fall

Maybe we pump from 450 to 650 this time.

My issue with this is it is clearly manipulation of Diff and price.

Well  I guess that is good. But these days 50 ph is a drop in the bucket.

413282 (Main Chain)   2016-05-24 21:23:04  this was first one of this jump

so 383 made

2 days     = 288

21 hours  = 126

20 minutes     2

so we should be at 416

383/416 -1 = (7.932692307692%)


but  we saw a 1000ph spike   so real time does not mean much if they can 2x the network anytime they want to do so.
