If we truly get negative I will be extremly happy. I can say none of my ROI excel sheets included a negative difficulty.
It does make sense though with low bitcoin price, those with hosting will be having a hard time with miners such as the old dragons.
yeah s-2's and dragons at 1 watt or more will be tough for business purpose's we may be seeing a lot of 1-1.2 watt gear being shut down.
a 1.1 watt 1th machine right now with 10 cents a kwatt earns a big fat 50 bucks a month. with power costs .
I am using free setup free internet and free machine
So basically a lot of 1- 1.5 watt gear is going off line.
My s-3's do .77 and they can be lowered to .67 per gh so they can hang in until diff of 80 or so.
If you don't have .8 or better at 10 cents or better things are bleak.
I would like to see 2 or 3 minus 1% adjustments in a row. only time will tell.
The key is does a company or 2 build a .3 or .4 watt machine and keep it to their company for mining only
