Dec 17 to Dec 29th diff thread (-0.32%) to (-0.12%)

[philipma1957]

Sat morning here in NJ, USA

(-3.83%)  next diff

324 usd current price


https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty


Numbers are nice usd price is a little better.

I sold a second coin.  this one for 328

So since the paycoin boost on west hash/nice hash  let me earn 2.77 coins instead of .7 coins

 I was 2.07 coins better off.  I hedged and sold 2 coin in the last few days…… thus I have .77 coins which is still more then the .7 I would have earned if the paycoin boost did not happen.

But I have 680 cash in the bank from the 2 coins…   This is  a certain and done deal.

I am looking to hold my coins for now. But I kind of wanted to spend a little cash for the holidays.

^+1 its been a great week.

My XPY experience is similar: during the timespan that would have netted around 0.75BTC ive made about 2.4BTC on nicehash and directly mined 12XPY (about 0.3BTC)

when paycoin ends, Ill drop back to bitcoin mining and its likely the difficulty wont scale up quickly enough to go positive for the next jump. my money is still on a -1% change this period, which alone is a great christmas ROI bonus

paycoin looks like its not doing too hot though. the 'magic $20+ face-value coins' are still only $6 each on the free market which means GAW will have scammed a lot of investors, or be forced to throw a lot of money into buying back at $20 as they promised to

Gaw has the money if they use so much of it to bring up to 20 no one knows.   I to enjoyed nicehash extra profits.   I also mined a few XPY for fun.   Will just hold those for the fun of it.   

[philipma1957]

they only have to bring 'staked' coins to that price.  

so if you do not have an account on zen with a staker you get the going price.


I have 2 stakers and 5 staked coins.  not too much to worry about. one way or the other

XPY mining has been extended until noon EST Sunday: https://hashtalk.org/topic/24715 Nope, 0 rewards. Nothing to see here, move along

Yea I thought the same.  You can mine another day but zero reward. 

Guess back to BTC for us all.  Now interesting to see what BTC does.

[Biodom]

nice hash is back to regular payouts.
It was fun while it lasted. I did not get in in the first two days, so got just ~3X payout. Not bad.

[Grix]

Bitcoinwisdom's estimate is now down to -4.66%, haha. I think the last few days is just variance, I'm guessing somewhere around -1 to -3% next diff if the hashrate stays relatively steady.

 a  while to go 11 days

Where ya been? It wasn't variance! Everyone was selling their hash to Paycoin miners, lol. But the POW phase ended today and everyone is back to mining BTC.

XPY rebounded nicely to ~$10. I have now sold off the last of my Peecoin. Now we just need someone to come up with another SHA scamcoin that gets all of the clueless fools excited again. I heard Titcoin was pretty sweet.

XPY was a great coin for us miners.   I was able to get in on second day on.  Mined a few of my own when the crazy rental's died off.   Most exciting sha mining in quite a while.

I've heard from a very reliable source that Titcoin has a floor of one trillion dollars.

And to pretend that this is not off topic: we are 25% into the current cycle, and 5% down in that interval. I think at halfway point (3-4 days from now) we'll be around zero and then it will depend on the exchange rate.

[edonkey]

Sounds like I missed out on titcoin. Damn!

Well at least I got in on nicehash rentals at an insane rate for a few days. That's probably worth a pair of titcoins...

well dang, it did. Looking at some charts theres a 50%+ upswing in the last 24hrs. shouldve bought up a bitcoin worth while they were rock bottom, and sold before they next hit rock bottom

I don't have a lot in paycoin. 5 of them , but it would be good if it sticks around as the second tier coin to BTC.

  I think if it worked out okay it would help BTC.  It has some strength that BTC does not have. It has some flaws that BTC does not have.
Remember LTC was silver and BTC was gold. Was not true but this coins does have quite a few different options.
(Biggest flaw is central control by GAW-ZEN).  It is supposed to be be very liquid to spend at a regular store.

I have an idea that may explain the drop but I will wait until tues before I post the idea.

Keep in mind that this is based on the last X blocks - not sure how big X is but quite sure at this moment it still includes the peak of XPY mining. This will fall off in a few days, so there is going to be bump up, question is - how much exactly.

I believe it is 504 or ¼   of the 2016 in the adjustment.  If so We  still had pressure up to  sat so 3 days after sat is tues.  We should see big gains well 2-4 %  and since we are 4.5% neg we may get back to -1% by late tues or early  weds.
