what happens when the maitenance costs outweight the amount of bitcoins hashed by the shaers on CEX? I think the profits are minimal at the moment but we cen get into a negative equity sooner rather than later. And the price of the shares does not seem to be anywhere near the market price. It has to be pegged somehow...
It's amazing how ridiculous the cex.io GH/BTC prices are. I can't believe anyone would pay the going rate of
BTC0.0038--that's nearly 100 times the actual value I calculate with 12% difficulty increases, which values 1 GH at 0.000051. Currently 1 GH brings about
BTC0.000017 per day, but maintenance is 0.18/30/450=
BTC0.0000134. So net profit/day is .00000347. Yes, that's 5 zeros.
That means a 1096 day ROI with NO difficulty increases. Is that sane?
With 12% diff increases, we are about a month away from implosion. Please be careful.I will be watching with interest when difficulty reaches 37.5 billion--that's when SHTF. This depends on BTC price, of course, but not that much, unless we go much higher.
