ok, but there is one factor that can reverse anything: the BTC price itself What will happen if you don't buy any more GH and price will rise up to let's say $1000 or more? (i am not talking about the price goes down to $1 ) This does not work because we are talking about two options: - should I buy X BTC today and keep them or
- should I buy X BTC today and invest them in GHS?
If you choose the second option and you end up with less BTC than option one, you are loosing money and USD/BTC does not have any effect. Not exactly what i (tried to) said. You have already bought 20-25 GH. And then you never buy any GH again and the btc price goes up to $1000. That's what i meant. Then you should have some profit, right?

I think this does not change my conclusion. When you bought those 20/25 GHS, you paid them X amount of BTC, right? You did not get them for free. Let's say you bought them today, at the current price of 0.0064 BTC and let's say you bought 25 GHS. You would have paid them 0.16 BTC or $73.28 USD at today's exchange rate. If in the end those GHS will mine less BTC, let's say 0.12 BTC and if the exchange rate will be $1,000 you will have received an amount of BTC equal to $120 (good ROI on USD) but if you just kept the original 0.16 BTC instead of buying GHS, you would have had $160. Therefore, unless you mine more BTC than what you paid, it makes more sense to buy BTC and keep them.

i don't really know. I am just asking if someone (me) pays 50 something dollars to buy GH, and then finds out that he 'll never get this money back and decides to just leave it there (no extra GH purchase in the future) what will happen if the btc price goes up. That's all . According to your example, in the next 3 years i'll have a loss of about $12 (if the price never change). I am supposing that you might have some profit if the price reach higher levels (and the pbmining will not close down). Right?

Correct! This is what I try to say. But: 0.1294292 BTC is the full amount, you can mine using 25 GH/s. So the ROI is a total lost of 0.0305708 BTC (this is the win for PBMining).

So, will you buy expensive GH/s or better invest your money directly in BTC?

if i get it right, the only way to make it even or mybe have some profit is to get as many referrals as you can.
If you refer new boneheads who are buing GH/s for expensive money (in BTC) on PBMining, you can reduce your lost in ROI. But don't forget. Buying on CEX is still much stupider than buying on PBMining. Buying BTC is get you the best ROI and you get the BTC instantly instead of waiting FIVE years to get back a little bit(coins) of your invested money.

Maybe u get ROI in like 10 years ?

Gonna throw it out there that I'm customer #21 #23, have been part of PB for a good couple of months now and I have actually got to the point now where I am making profit. Rapidly declining profit yeah but profit all the same.

Profit on PBMining isn't possible for customers. Go back to school and learn basic mathematics. To all guys, who want to buy GH/s on PBMining: I can do the same GH/s power delivery like PBMining, but cheaper: 1 GH/s = 0.0058 BTC (offer is valid until 2014-04-08)
