Sad to see final thread, it's been a lot of fun thanks phil for running them. It sure is high already I hope it goes down as price does not seem match the difficulty jump up, which makes margins smaller... and smaller.
And I agree ETH is interesting they stopped a theft but at a high cost... price went down even had the ETC come out of it. It was a unique situation with a lot of powerful whales that did not want to lose money.
yeah frankly I could go for 50-100k but for lack of protection I stay in the 10k to 15k area. Right now I have : 4 s-9s = 5200 27 gpus + pcs = 7800 6 or 7 k in mixed coins 2 k in cash which adds to 22000, but the pc gear has real value so I can be higher in my investment Haven't kept up with these too much phil it's already coming to an end for these diff threads? It's been a pleasure having you run it back from the 0.5% guessing. Also Bitcoin itself hasn't been hacked AFAIK, it is just the exchanges that have to be treating funds like fort knox. I still feel that it is pretty secure holding your coins as long as you don't do sketch stuff. |

Big peak huuge !
Possibly a burn in test for new gear, or another large pool firing up and testing their setup? Whatever it is, it looks scary. We'll have a 300G difficulty before long (and I remember saying we'll have a 100G diff...). |

We'll have a 300G difficulty before long (and I remember saying we'll have a 100G diff...). well the s9 at 10 cent power and a diff of 300 makes $3.20 per day at a diff of 400 makes $1.56 per day at a diff of 500 makes $0.59 per day but if you have 5 cent power the s9 makes $2.25 usd a day at a diff of 500 So I can see this moving to a diff of 500 it will take time but looks to happen. |

The "Next Difficulty" website paints an even darker picture +11% (range of +8 to +18) using their algorithm and numbers. The BTC price is also still holding in the range of $600-$610. No major changes on the price front for weeks, isn't it? http://www.nextdifficulty.com/ |

With all but the eastern US seeing cool temps not too much winter heat is coming online. I'm still trying to recover from the 107F it was here on Monday in Los Angeles. I turned off everything but my AC.

the spike is back again.
and it dropped off a tiny bit. Still a 6 to 9% jump looks very possible we are at block 1074 we start at 916 since I want someone to pick that winner and we end at 616 which means about 2 day window to pick Bitcoin Difficulty: 241,227,200,230 Estimated Next Difficulty: 260,463,155,682 (+7.97%)
