it seem we have a serious spike here.
Eh, I think it looks more like a 3 to 4 percent spike when you review the 24 hour average. It also appears that the hashrate is headed downward at the moment.

Hey All,

Phil is one my favorite on this forum and for all his hard work on this thread I would to be the first one to sent a gift (some BTC) as a small gesture of thanks. (I will be sending you something to your first profile's BTC address.)

I highly encourage all of you to do the same, but it is, indeed, up to you.

Hope everyone join me so you can buy some more of this adult's liquid we call Alcohol so you can enjoy it during your vacation from this thread and warm your heart for the incoming winter ! (Or maybe one more GPU !  Grin)

Phil, thanks you so much for all the hard work with this thread. It's been really a fun ride.  Cool

Thanks for doing it for so long, Phil.  It's been fun and one of the things that kept me coming back to these forums despite me not mining for many many months.

It has been a lot of fun,  but for now this is it.

wow the last one.  Well thanks for all the fun times Smiley

Yeah  I just am a little too stretched to run the thread anymore.

I have the Solar Array going with the bad s-9 boards 2 of 18 so far.  I do not know how long the gear will last.
I have a lot in the ETH & XMR gear  which takes time.
I did my Kitchen and while it came nice  the contractors took 3x the promised time 90 days vs 30 days.

I also plan on 2 baths and a bedroom over the next six months and I don't want to get jerked around like I did this time.

Lastly I no longer have a signature to use to fund the thread.

We gave more then 6 coins away.  Of which I did 3  the other was funded by a different forum member.

I had a few donations from some guys that was good and made up for lost funds with bitfenix which was where I kept the funds for the thread.  All in all this was a lot of fun.

When we first gave away coins BTC was under 200 bucks  it is now near 610.
Diff was under 40  it is now over 225.
blocks were 25 they are now 12.5
s-3 was 500 s-9 was 2000

Miners were .8 watts in the form of the s-3
Miners are now .1 watts in the form of the s-9

So diff went up 6
½ is a factor of 2 
gear price is a factor of 4
so  6 x 2 x 4 =  48 worse


efficiency went 8 better
price went 3 better

so 8 x 3 = 24 better

so mining profit  is 2x worse

'The right to privacy matters'
This is the final Diff thread  Been doing this a long time and I am a bit burnt out.

I jump prize to $50.00

picks will start at    1116  and end at 716.

Last jump  we had the rounding rule happen  the bitcoinwisdom number was 2.30%

but actual number was 225,832,872,179/220,755,908,330 = 1.02299808819346

that is a 2.299808819346 % jump

so

wpt1wpt1  had 2.2 which covers 2.20 to 2.29999999999999999999999....

pusttiu  had     2.3 which covers 2.30 to 2.39999999999999999999999....

so the actual winner was wpt1wpt1

I am awarding both the prize of $25

Since these thread were always meant for some fun.

I also bumped the prize up to $50  for the last thread.

And if the rounding rules happens again I will give two prizes.

I had a lot of fun here.  So to all that ever posted here  especially seriouscoin  thanks for posting and playing.
