With the price which falls, I think that it is completely useless to mine for the moment, with the difficulty.. Some Cloud Mining companies are probably going down too soon, zeushash !?

The difficulty to begin with was already too high. Bitcoin was on a steady decline over the months and it hit rock bottom a week ago. I stopped mining a bit ago, but I don't blame anyone for stopping now while they're ahead. Saving the Bitcoin while paying for the mining, which I have seen some do, is a horrible idea. The charges will keep racking up while the BTC never rises up in price. For me, it was nice while it lasted, I'm sure it was for you too. It was minimum. Nothing too notable or to make a difference in OP's case.

I was really happy to buy my antminer s3 on september, i knew that ROI was gonna be impossible but mining is so much fun, to know that you are mining is.. awesome , had to turn them off and I'm just setting up some nodes to help the network.

Thinking of doing the same because my miner runs only occasionally for (gamble) solo mining.

By the end of the week, I'll be retiring my lone S2 and all my S3's; only running SP20's and S5's.
Starting to feel like an end of an era...

I think home miners quitting the mining business also has effects on the bitcoin economy as a whole. In the 2013 BTC boom hardware was solely bought with BTC, fuelling the rising prices of BTC. In 2013 und 2014 I spent most of my BTC at buying hardware. After my miners were obsolete in spring last year I did not need additional BTC. So I kept my BTC except some humblebundle purchases. So loosing the home miners is not a good prospect for bitcoin.

Home miners, are bitcoin users, those big bitcoin farms are not bitcoin users, they're abusers and dumpers. I can't wait til they decide to boot them self off the network.

How is the noise between the S2 and the S3? Someone is selling an S2 on the classifieds and wondering if its worth getting as a home miner.

For the sake of argument, the S2 and S3 are about the same volume.
