best guess would be sample/test chips added so far. it is just impossible for AM to find those 5 blocks with their same hashrate and considering the overall increase of hashing power worldwide.

Exactly.
This is much better than an announcement. Hashrate is actually going up.

Ahem, yes. To quote a classic, Yippee Ki-yay motherfucker!
It's been a long road (in bitcoin timescale)

5 blocks in 26 hours is excessively unlikely (~0.008%) without a huge increase in hashing power.
Good times are coming.

If it wasn't a crazy fluke we should know within the next 12-24 hours.

I think if we find 7 blocks in 2 days, we can definitely all but rule out variance.

Can you ever really rule out variance Tongue

have you checked out the hashrate increase
http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ a lot of new asic's just came online.

I see no changes to the hashrate could be variance 2% on blocks found in the last 24 hours 1% last 48 hours

Screw that, this isn't variance, this is MOAR POWAH.

(or it is just luck... which is boring!)

I sit on Just-Dice a good amount and watch people lose their money, not only that but my background is in psychology. What we are seeing today could very well be variance, because variance is a bitch.

The other possibility, is that this is old hardware coming online. Remember several months ago we had huge issues with deployment space, we could be seeing the results of new space opening up, and finally turning hardware on.

Guys, I don't want to ruin your little circlejerk party here, but we saw this kind of luck in the past. Its useful to come with conclusion after several days(2+). I personally burn myself once, when I was very exiting awaiting Gen2 and saw this kind of luck.

Haha, you guys are seeing 4 blocks/day and you're so excited about it, that you're writing 2-3pages about it, i don't really want to see what will happen with this thread when Friedcat actually delivers Grin

That's exactly how I took this - wild positive speculation based on no real news. There is going to be a serious squeeze if gen3 delivers at or above expectations. Less and less liquid supply on Havelock as people xfer to direct.
