you will be over 99% of blocks made.
thats good enough.
of the 153 to check I believe only 30 or have made a recent block.
At this stage of development of the analysis, in 4000 blocks, I was unable to almost automatically identify the miners of 129 blocks. This means that I was unable to identify about 3%. I don't know if it's worth spending time doing a manual check for that 3%. Even so, I did a manual check, and noticed that several of these blocks were mined by WhitePool and SecPool. So I'm still in the dilemma of trying to get even more information. This now seems to take a long time, but once I have the file ready, I will be able to update the data in a few minutes. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

We know some people are solo mining with custom firmware so you will not get every block identified.

At 8% if it will be the case this is going to be the largest jump in hashrate ever, of course it comes after a decline but still it might go above 40 Exashah, the previous records were 34 and 30, it's just insane how it keep growing. Fees down, price recovering a bit, with this ew jump we're going back to 7.5 cents per th/s. Also fees in % reward has hit a new low of 5%, lowest point since November. And riot is planning 100 exahash till 2025 ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Funny thing, with all these swings 4% down and 8% up the hashrate still looks just as distributed as previously, as If every single thing is affecting all pools nearly the same with little variance.

So the summary of the two above comments and some rough math, the s19j for $3473 will produce in revenue about $11.35 per day. If you have "free" electricity, if this were to continue, your miner would be paid off in about 306 days. The next halving will happen during those 300 days, so it will obviously extend past 306 days.
Is this summary reasonably accurate?

No. coupons reduce price to 2431 . If you have limited free power ie you can run 1 of these free its cheap. first 90 days you get back 1000. Next 90 days you get 500. So if it arrives feb 5 or 6 you get a lot back fast. If you have free power.

It seems that that logic, that many miners turned off their machines, because of the cold problems in Texas, makes some sense.
We spent a good part of this cycle with a value close to 0%, and now in the final phase it is almost 8%. Many turning on the machines.

Bitmain dumping the j xp series, so they are probably done with the S19 and only focus on the S21 from now But honestly ... After Coupon 16.1 $/T vs 17.5 $/T with one at 21.5J/T and the other at 17.5J/T Still the s21 look more attractive with coupons (of course if you have them) They also dropped the price of the hydro to 8.4 $/T, but the efficiency on that is just bad! Still weird, they have a ton of pre-orders, do they have also a ton of stock, I wonder if we'll see the most efficient gear at $10/th if the halving doesn't come with a price bump! Latest Block: 828397 (31 minutes ago) Current Pace: 105.9973% (1838 / 1734.01 expected, 103.99 ahead) Next Retarget (earliest): Tomorrow at 9:18 PM (in 1d 3h 59m 17s) Down to more realistic figures, so counting the -3.8% last time it because just an average of ~1% per two weeks, rounding error.

If things continue at this rate, will the cycle end sooner, or will it even mine more blocks than normal?
