Even with a small positive I still consider that a win by far.   With S9's being announced not seeing a huge increase... does not seem to bad.  Also take into account Bitcoin value seems to be on a steady rate up.

On coinbase we have crossed 580 with 581 and some change.  So I keep thinking 600 is possible in next few difficulty changes... which is a pretty nice jump from the 400's.

I would have preferred they wait a bit longer as I really wanted a -2 for the jump not a plus 1.

At least coins are 579 at coinbase.

Yes I am liking this rise a lot, in particular if you look at the closing price for the last couple of Weeks and ignore the intra Day Highs then nearly all Days are up with only tiny pullbacks.



On this Period Difficulty I think some hash may have been added this Morning, if it continues this is going to be a big Day and the Period to Date rate has now pushed up to -3.81%

So the negative trend continues with Yesterday being the slowest Day yet this Period at -17.36% and 119 Blocks. Things have however picked up this Morning pulling the Period to Date Run Rate which closed at -5% last night up to -4.25%. So about 3 Days left to run let's see what happens Today?

Yes Today so far is a slow Day and we are going more negative, my spreadsheet also showing Period to Date at -4.57%. And I thought that my -3% was a bit ambitious... However as we know the hash Rate can turn on a Sixpence Dime.

Nice to keep hearing the negative numbers.  Sadly we lost a tad bit of value gained yesterday on coinbase.  It was hitting around 580 but dropped to around 567 right now.  So drop could have been much worse.  But I really would love to see a 600 something number before having.  Which I think is realistic and not to far off.

Still negative on bitwisdom to:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    199,312,067,531
Estimated Next Difficulty:    197,020,559,256 (-1.15%)
Adjust time:    After 525 Blocks, About 3.8 days
Hashrate(?):    1,365,716,695 GH/s

I have sold off 3 and ½ avalon 6's

I was going to sell everything  from the array.

3 avalon6s are left.
2 s-7's
2 sp20's
 1 s-5

with the negative diff approaching prices over 560 and the s-9 having at least 2 pool restrictions  I stopped the sales of the rest of the gear.

I think I will mine that gear a bit.

Well I missed out ordering a third s-9 and it is closed, but maybe holding the 3.8 coins is better.

Real time coming up.


414762 (Main Chain)   2016-06-04 15:29:22   current block   33 minutes ago


413282 (Main Chain)   2016-05-24 21:23:04  this was first one of this jump


1481 blocks made so far


10 days       =  1440

18 hours     =   108

40 minutes  =   4


1552 = 0%


so

1481/1552-1 =   -4.57%      I may have made an error on this number.

Well we have only 562 left  so +6 is max number   if we do 3 days of 187 blocks a day.


the info below may make the garden a bit less rosy


Bitmain have hacked stratum in the S9 miner.
Adding their own special command for antpool ... who knows what they do with that extra command during authentification ...

We don't allow invalid commands during authentication e.g. to stop DDoS attempts sending rubbish to the pool when they connect.
So, yep as of now the S9 wont work on CKPool.
Any pool that allows the miner to send random rubbish during connection will allow it.

You used to have a special hookup for asicminer tubes.

Been a while since I had a tube.

Will you be able to allow the s-9 in the same manner?

I have two on order and I don't want to point at antpool.
I may have to not order a third or fourth one.

So Yesterday another negative Day with -1.39% and 142 Blocks. Period to date Run Rate, 7 Hours in Today, is at -3.84%. So this is either the calm before the Storm or we are in for a nice negative Period? Price is holding nicely, everything in the garden is rosy.....  Smiley

And at close bitwisdom still negative which is nice to see.  It is a small negative though but if it is close to this in the end hard to argue:

Coinbase is hitting 580 as I type this post.  So still very positive on price surging upwards. I am surprised it's holding so well honestly but I am happy it is.

Yes very nice to see the continued rise in the price and for us in the UK we are now approaching £400 which would be very nice. Who knows what the exact reason is, but I guess some of it is Halving related? Also good to see the continued negative Difficulty, we are Period to Date at -3.81% although as we know if someone throws the switch this could still step up a few notches.

Rich

Really having is biggest thing I can think of.  There is the S9 that I could see people wanting to buy BTC if they did not have any to buy, but I don't think it is the cause of surge we are seeing.  I always thought having would cause effect on price before it happens, as investors know it's coming and it's not like a secret.

I would love to hear other reasons if someone has one besides having and S9 release.  I don't see other big things but it's possible I missed something.

Still seeing negatives which is nice,  hopefully we can manage a negative even if small.  I'm a tad bit of jaded and expect positives at this point, but would love to be wrong.

The great thing BTC took another jump up were seeing 572 at coinbase.  So were talking about a gain of around 30 dollars per bitcoin... which is pretty nice little jump.   If we hit 600 I think we will all be very happy.
