As expected, small miners will forcely to shutdown their rigs due to decreasing of their revenues. How I wish to set-up mining rigs pero as I see how it kills small miners from cost. Parang hindi ko na babalakin pumasok bilang miner ng BTC.
The days of GPU crypto mining are long over now ever since nangyari yung pangalawang halving ng Bitcoin hindi na nakita ng mga gpu crypto miners natin na profitable yung operations nila dahil na din kulang yung hashrate output ng mga GPU mining rigs nila kumpara sa cost na natatanggap nila. Senyales na yung pagbaba ng mga graphics card sa merkado na nagsasabi na din na may nawalang demand dahil sa crypto mining. The above price chart shows yung price trend ng Radeon RX 580 which is one of the popular choice when it comes to crypto mining from around 300$ nung 2018 naging 200$ nalang sya at present. Now ang tanging use nalang ng mga gpu natin is para makapaglaro ka nalang talaga at hindi mag-mine ng cryptocurrencies. Kaya tama yung desisyon mo na hindi na tumuloy mag-mine dahil hindi ka talaga kikita lalong lalo na naka-experience na ng pangatlong halving ang Bitcoin. If may pera kang na-ipon para mag-mine ng crypto I would suggest na mag-trade o invest ka nalang ng cryptocurrencies which is more ideal for us na late adopters.
Historically speaking, hindi nagkaroon ng major cause ang bitcoin halving back when 2016. But the ATH of bitcoin reached after a year. Yung 2017 bull run season. So, as we look at the DNA of bitcoin. During bitcoin halving, bitcoin price just going sideways. But a month or a year after, we will all see how the price becomes aggressive.
That is a positive insight to the value, but if we look at the interaction of miners and traders. Malaki na namang adjustments ang gagawin para maging stable ang transactions. Kung mawawala ang napakaraming small miners, assume that fees will increase and later on, price will follow the same.
Medyo conservative ako when it comes to predicting the price movement of Bitcoin, kasi never kong ginamit na basis ang historical price movement ng Bitcoin and treat it na mangyayari ulit ito, medyo wala kasing sense yung magiging assumption mo pag ganun ka mag-analyze. Tama ka na nangyari yung bull run after a year from halving pero hindi mo naman masisigurado na ganyan din mangyayari during this time kasi iba naman yung sitwasyon ngayon kumpara dati. Most safest way para hindi ka matalo sa trade mo is wag ka gumawa ng prediction ngayon and just monitor the situation closely, wag ka maging komfortable dahil may nangyaring bull-run a year after halving.
Dun talaga ako sa Fees na-aburido, damang dama ko yan eh... Hindi makatarungan tapos expect ko pump tayo kabaligtaran ngyari, mapanlinlang talaga sa crypto, di ko akalain na kabaligtaran pa ang mangyayari kung kailan makakalahati na ang mamimina after ng halving.
Tulad nga ng sabi ng iba parang kalimitan lang ang pangyayari parang walang ngyaring halving IMO, tanging Miners lang siguro ang makakadama nito ng husto.
Grabe naman yung hindi makatarungan hahaha, I just gave a chart showing kung gaano kataas yung fees last 3 years ago kaya hindi na din ako maka-reklamo sa tinaas nya ngayon. Like I said temporary lang ito and this might be due of the temporary lost in hash rate combined with a lot of users willing to pay a higher fee. Lahat ng ito magiging normal din in a short period of time. Sobrang baba pa din ng fees ng Bitcoin if ikukumpara mo talaga sya dati. If hindi kaya mag-bayad ng mataas na transaction fee I would suggest na gumamit nalang ng mga TX Accelerators, here is a
guide from Zepher which I will always remember.
It would be interesting to see also kung ilan sa mga small miners ang nagsara this time pero given na hindi masyadong bumagsak ang hash rate, it is enough to say na insignificant na yun.
Lumalabas din na mas maraming minero ang mas nakapaghanda ngayon kaya hindi na nila kinailangan mag-shutdown. Kahit na bumaba pa ang reward, nakagawa naman sila ng paraan para bumaba ang cost of electricity na siyang pangunahing gastos sa pagmimina. Kumbaga nakahanap ng paraan at naging mas efficient na sila ngayon. Ewan ko kung ilang porsyento ng mga current miners ang gumagamit ng green energy ngayon pero papunta na siguro lahat dun. May report noong 2019 na 74% ang gumagamit ng renewable energy -
Bitcoin Mining Is Shockingly Mostly Powered by Green EnergyMeron pang mga bago:
Atlas Holding LLC, the private-equity firm that runs the operation, has installed some 7,000 crypto mining machines at the Greenidge Generation plant in recent months that can mine about 5.5 Bitcoins per day. The 65,000-square-foot facility in Dresden, New York, was built in 1937 as a coal plant and later converted to natural gas.
The machines work off so-called “behind-the-meter” power, which makes it extremely low cost, the private-equity firm said.
It's a good thing that you brought this up dahil may natatandaan ang issue about dito. Politicians and environmentalist always point out that Bitcoin mining o crypto mining are "waste of enegy" o nakaka-dulot ng
polusyon but they always fail to point out na madami ng crypto miners gumagamit ng renewable energy para sa kanilang mga operasyon. Also if ikukumpara natin yung mga ibang sources ng polusyon katulad ng mga factory, kotse, at food production di hamak na mas mataas yung nako-contribute nila sa polusyon ng mundo. Ewan ko ba baka nag-hahanap nalang sila ng rason to oppose Bitcoin o sadyang wala lang silang alam sa crypto industry kaya bato lang sila ng bato ng mga statement nila na walang basis.
