The next difficulty is estimated at about 40% jump and even with the current drop in price my miners are about 3 to 4 times more profitable then when I started in April. Stop trolling.
3 to 4 times more profitable.... right... I think YOU'RE trolling. So that's like mining today @ $3-4 a bitcoin at current rates. Who the hell would mine at the current difficulty level for $3-4? If you pay for power, you'd be lucky to make more than a couple of dollars a day.... I call BS. don't believe me look here. http://www.tvori.info/bitcoin/charts/ compare where the pretty green line was on april first to where it is now. I said 3 or 4 times more profitable, not 3 or 4 times the price. Looks more like 2x more profitable, rather than your claimed 3-4x... Maybe 3-4x before the bubble popped @ ~$30. price dropped a bit more since i posted but you get my point. it was a good idea to mine in april and its an even better idea now. |

844 blocks to go, 11 blocks an hour = 3.19 days till diff change
estimated as of this post = 821945 or a 45% increase
Uhm, 9 blocks per hour is a 50% increase. 11 blocks per hour is (11-6)/6•100 in percent; go ahead and solve it. I don't think the current block rate dictates the difficulty increase, but rather the average block rate over the entire difficulty span. I could be wrong however, but I know that the last difficulty increase did not reflect the block rate at the time the difficulty increased. |

The estimated difficulty is changing all the time and the block rate has been increasing dramatically and has been above 8 since the last difficulty change and now it is about 11. I still believe it will be above 50% and possibly above 60%. |

I'd say around 50% since it is at 45% now and few days are left.

I don't think he was lying... look at the P/D ratio back in April: http://forum.bitcoin.org/?topic=7427.0 it was below one while right now it's about 2.5. Also, I'd say 50-55% difficulty increase on or slightly before June 16. No idea about P/D though, anyone care to guess? |
