how much would 10,000 rock2 return when bitcoin is at 10,000kusd? any way to tell? its going to be pretty much like 70-120 a day im thinking
or 50-80 usd a day
...
When Bitcoin first hit $10k (Dec '17) the difficulty was 1,347,001,430,558, with 9,642 PH/s hashing.
These have both increased by a factor of ~4 in the last seven months.
Before operating costs, now 1 TH/s would gross ~$15 per month at current difficulty
if the price was $10000, whereas at Dec's lower difficulty that would have been ~$57.
It is extremely unlikely that we will see December level profitability again, certainly in the near future. That anomalous (freak) rate of return was what IR decided to use as typical for the future, with their 357% etc. ROI nonsense.
How much each token will receive depends on how much hashrate output is allocated to it, which in turn depends on how many miners are being deployed. With the small amount of mining actually being currently done, any ROI per token will be minimal.
As I pointed out in a previous post (not deleted yet), there is also the question of the 20% operating cost allocation.
Whilst miners that consume more than 20% of their output in operating costs (like the S9's do now and will probably continue to do so) are being used, it must be asked, "Where is the extra money coming from to pay the bills, from what account?"
There are three possible options:
1)From the 20% re-investment allocation
2)From the 50% profit distribution
3)From the Ice Rock 10% retention
If they choose 1) or 2), then they are effectively using (your) previous invested money to pay (you) dividends, which is a classic definition of a P*nzi Scheme.
