I just found this chart.
Difficulty http://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty
Some article: http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-mining-network-vulnerability/
I'm wondering if a random country decides to take this as business and starts the mining as a government...
Then this would take off like even crazier...
Any thought?

I know a couple of Nigerian princes who recently came into a large sum on money - maybe they'll go for 20nm ASICs Cheesy
