(on isaicminer.com home page)  Hmm I think its a demo page It might be hash though since their is an english button Which does not make much sense either ^_^ http://www.iasicminer.com/index.php/action-channel-name-homeBut just in case Choo Choo XD (I'll check later if the number changes ^_^) Ah wait at 19 mill so not quite yet XD https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

It looks like a snapshot of the network at a previous time. Could it be a display of how the network is while a customer is mining? 80PH would be about 50% o f the network right now.

Yep its definitely a placeholder a nice one though especially when you take into account the present difficulty is almost 20 billion at present. Heh last year at this time it was 50 million

lol, at 5.8 blocks per hour they would be mining almost all blocks  so it's definitely just a placeholder.

Solo-mining or...(and think about it)...in Discus Fish? Would explain DF's steady growth to parallel GHash over the past 2 months...

BTC0.34  No comments on this? btc/usd tanked And Bitcoin investors don't quite grasp that the value of Bitcoin ASICs depends on said bitcoins having value. So that twelve-year-olds could understand: You can charge more for Bitcoin miners when Bitcoin is worth more. You can't sell Bitcoin miners at all if Bitcoin is worthless, or when the electricity costs are higher than the price of the coins mined with it.

BTC0.34  No comments on this? btc/usd tanked And Bitcoin investors don't quite grasp that the value of Bitcoin ASICs depends on said bitcoins having value. That is not the point. These bitcoin investors are bullish concerning the long term value of bitcoin in USD. And now they have to spend less dollars to get the same amount of shares promising the same amount of dividends in BTC! I can see why Bitcoin bulls would be buying Bitcoin now, but why would they be more inclined to spend that bitcoin on AM? Are you suggesting that spending one BTC on AM shares now would get you more dividends per BTC later?

BTC0.34  No comments on this? btc/usd tanked And Bitcoin investors don't quite grasp that the value of Bitcoin ASICs depends on said bitcoins having value. Bitcoin/USD exchange rate being down helps us as AM investors. FC has already paid for the materials to build our mine (fairly safe assumption), he is going to be able to bring online a static amount of hash-power. Lower btc/usd value means less new entrants into the mining ecosystem, less investment from current participants and generally slower network growth. Lower btc/usd value means that we will be able to hold a larger % of the network for longer increasing our BTC dividends. (which is what I care about at this stage) As someone who has no interest in selling BTC for a long while, this is all positive in my eyes.

This is predicated on other players not having sunk money into their product--an unjustified assumption. Lower BTC/USD price makes mining less profitable--electricity and hosting costs, which must be paid in fiat, remain constant, while the return--price of the mined BTC--is lower. It's reasonable to assume that the price one can charge for hashpower will also be lower.

It's reasonable to assume that the price one can charge for hashpower will also be lower. That is true, which is why a company like AM who has lots of already paid for, inexpensive, in-hand hardware will do better than those who are hoping to sell pre-orders to fund their next round of NRE, chips, etc. The squeeze is on for all asic producers and miners and the ones in the best reputation and position to ride it out will be the ones left standing.

It's reasonable to assume that the price one can charge for hashpower will also be lower. depends on your capital and whether you sell devices or mine Makes no difference whether you mine or sell. Self-mining requires hosting and electricity--both to be paid in fiat. When (electricity+hosting) cost more than (the bitcoins mined with that electricity and hosting), the gear is at the break-even point--it is worth nothing. That's why both miners and ASIC manufacturers depend on high Bitcoin exchange rate. No one in his right mind would spend money on mining gear that doesn't break even.*
*Truth. Unchanged by the fact that Bitcoin miners have done just that. Constantly. AM's business model relied on the coin of these lunatics. As did pretty much every other ASIC manufacturer.
