The monero network hashrate has increased alot with new private pools. To be able to hardfork they need at least 50% of the mining wallets to upgrade. The monero team is taking decentrialization and privacy very serious, Ready to D-Dos at the forking day?

Then you will have a new altcoin like ethereum classic, and the old monero will still live on. The only way to do this properly is to hardfork the chain, and force the wallet upgrades.

What if the old monero becomes monero classic? It's devs and exchanges who determine the name, not miners unfortunately

With a change of the pow it might not be enough to change the firmware, you need to make another chip. (expensive)

Someone still should make a doomsday clock for $.1kWh and current network hash for large coins.
Live prices from Nicehash profit on the 1080ti. $1.45 after power cost. The 1060 3gb is down to $0.6 and this is less than I got on my 4 year old 750ti's in december. if bitcoin is dropping down to $4000, ppl will mine at a loss with el cost @ $0.1. Summer is comming, and some of you won't be needing the space heating anymore in your houses.

Good old hawaii war elephant 250w, $0.1/kWh, power costs to run 'only' $0.5/ day. Still profitable. We need to cut another 50%. Sh0rtcoin is the best coin, hands down the best performer of the 2018 so far.

winter is here, stay strong Not yet... Still have to drop another $1500 or network hashrate growth at the current pace will probably do it in a month. It's coming though. New miners are extra stupid and don't have a off button. Not sure who is buying new cards at 2 year ROI, but apparently there is plenty. Just think of where cryptos will be in two years, where they've been two years ago, silly pricing.

I buy private Nvidia miners. Send information and/or inquiries to my PM box.

50% is too much (too short_optimistic, i.e. pessimistic) for BTC. Some altcoins, maybe.
