Lophie is back again with the weird connections and questions.  Grin

Guys considering that GPU mining was returning only ~40%ish considering electricity cost. Do you think during this slumpy week for the exchange rate that many miners will pause mining which would boost ASICMINER network hashrate% and therefore... more profit BTC_BTC?

<Answering myself: Go home lophie you are drunk. Please don't spend your dividends on excessive booze it is bad for your health>

Why would they? That would be just stupid, they just need to hope price rebound back and hold onto coins. They just cannot sell them for immediate profit

I rest my case

Will take me a while to climb up again, But where is a will, there is a way...

Another way of looking at it is the blades are a lot cheaper now as measured in $ so perhaps sales will actually go up?
They are priced in BTC, they produce BTC, the BTCUSD rate is irrelevant here.


No, if you are long on btc it's clearly a bargain.
No, that's exactly like just buying BTC and not spending them.

If you spend them for another BTC-producing asset is irrelevant relative to BTCUSD.


I accept your argument that the btc:usd rate doesn't affect return. However, the cost of entry to the product has lowered, making it affordable to more people. I would expect that to drive sales up.

Imagine the corollary. If btc:usd went up to $1000, a blade would now cost $49,990 cash price. How many do you think AM will sell per week at those prices?

No affect on the demand of BLADE...as long as the return of BLADE maintaining the same level.
only things will affect is who buys the BLADE ,and  how to buy the BLADE.
if a BLADE cost $49990 ,its return remains the same, then its potential buyers will switch to rich one ,or group buy.

I see your point, and while it does make sense, I don't think it weights so much.

I guess that this kind of "market" would auto-adjust, and if the price of BTC would go up too much, people who wanted to spend less would just either buy a minor product (i.e. USB miner) or buy shares such as PTs or virtual mines.

So, yes, sales could be slightly affected by such a thing, but not as much as someone might imagine.

What's the roadmap to increasing the hashrate ?

Current hashrate is now less than 30%, more like 20%.

Look at all the stocks and most have only taken a 10% hit tops, but AM is where most people have their money that they wanna get out so it's taken the largest undeserved hit.

Stupid would be mining at a loss and hoping for a increase in the exchange rate. Sensible would be to stop mining at a loss, and buy BTC for USD instead, if you think the price is going to rise.
