To be honest, I've been watching the difficulty estimations change a little too much, and I'm convinced that all the sub 2% swings in the next estimated difficulty are just variance, plain and simple. Crossing my fingers, though, I really want to see the diff drop. For once my payouts might... actually... increase! ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) too many days away to really know, but it moved to (-0.65%) about 40,037,572,339 https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficultysome are lower http://www.bitcoincharts.comhas it at 39807376875 this is (-1.22%)http://blockexplorer.com/q/estimate39421642542 that is (-2.17%)

Actual changes in difficulty of only ~2% would likely be that a net amount of miners would have been taken offline

Generally weekends are lull periods in new hashrate. Though there could be a 5%+ jump in the following difficulty adjustment with the bulk pricing spondoolies and bitmain have for the weekend

spondoolies sp20's have been shipping the bitmaintech coupons had to help sell the s-4's. So 1 or 2% jump looks pretty sure right now.
I purchased 2 sp20's and kind of want to get one more. I know I am not the only one doing this.

I expanded aswell. With winter weather hard to pass up cheap/free cooling. It will be the big centers that really give us a jump. I thought they would wait till next gen, but the SP gear appears to have quite the lifespan with it's underclock. Guess time will tell.

Guess time will tell. yeah .55 to .57 watts on underclock will really allow for long use. With my higher power costs I need to get efficient gear. BTW I grabbed a third sp20.

I thought they would wait till next gen, but the SP gear appears to have quite the lifespan with it's underclock. Guess time will tell. even so, its virtually impossible to see 15%+ jumps happen many more times without an increase in BTC value. Its infeasible for people to routinely add that much to thier farms without rapidly hitting thermal or power limits and needing to rely on cloudmining or find a dedicated location. I think we will see +0.2% this increase +10% next +6% after + 2% after, followed by a few more small increases unless hardware prices or bitcoin value changes

I will be happy welcoming a 1 percent jump. Wish they were all so low. I don't think we will see negative, but I hope I'm wrong.

I am. and I am also converting s-3's to sp20's on a smaller scale.

So about -0.35% unless 100PH was added right this minute. I'm pretty damn happy about this, considering most of my profitability calculations made 3-6 months ago were assuming 4-7% jumps at this point in time.
I think the next jump may be fairly big though with the influx of the black Friday deals by bitmain and spondoolies. it's likely that each company sold 5-10 PH during that sale

well I grabbed 3x sp20's that will be about 4th underclocked and about 2190 watts I know that at least 1000 s-3's and s-4's sold I could figure the exact number looking at btc addresses. I know at least 2000 btc was sent to spondoolies addresses that is 1000 sp20's. I looked at this address https://blockchain.info/address/15QTGigFgnMpqcg5tQwBszQ94me98ZTVkr and some others . So to think 10ph will add in the dec 2 - dec 14 diff period is reasonable. but 10ph is now 1/30 of the network so that is 3% jump. My hope is under 5/6% for the next jump.

Around 3 hours till change on btcwisdom: 40,047,488,260 (-0.63%). Will be a interesting few hours.
I think some of the S4's might be on the network already. I think the SP20's will be brand new on network over blackfriday sales. We will see I'm hoping less then 5 percent on next jump.
