Right now, Difficulty is set to change in about six hours, ~7PM ET. The change is estimated to be 3% - 4%, below the ~6.5% required to generate excess capital to be paid out to SELL.

So, I will issue the report tomorrow at Noon, like normal, and the MINE dividend will change, but SELL will not be issued a dividend (barring some major increase in the next six hours).

Just wanted to make this clear so that there's no confusion tomorrow.

This a great time to bring up jjdub7's comment from this past week - there is a minimum increase required in the Difficulty for a SELL dividend to be paid. Right now, the Difficulty increase percentage for this period has been hovering around 5% - 6%, below the ~6.5% required for any SELL dividend to be paid.

Difficulty looks like it will change Saturday afternoon, so the report would be issued on Sunday.

For those of you that don't have one yet, my favorite site for tacking the Difficulty is https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty


2070 - if I remember correctly, there was a minimum difficulty bump in order for SELL to be paid.  It was around 6.5% the last time the topic was covered.  Is this a constant minimum percentage inherent to your model or does it change as we move between rounds?  Thanks as always, man.

No problem - yes, this is a constant figure for any Period, not any specific one. It just has to do with the number of daily dividend payments made versus the number of days in the period.

Each day pays out 1 out of 200 Days worth of the dividend Reserve. 1 / 200 = .005 (or .5%).

13 Days of dividends = 13 * .5% = 6.5%. This seems to be the mathematical 'sweet spot' - just shy of 14 days, which is of course the 'Standard' Difficulty period time period (no increase/no decrease).

So, if you're paying out .5% per day, the difficulty needs to increase by at least .5% per day, otherwise the Reserve is decreasing faster than difficulty is increasing. Hope this helps-

Dividend was paid and Auto-EXCH is back up, so I'll be reposting the EXCH ask in just a minute. The four shares purchased after noon were not exchanged before the dividends were paid, and the other four were actually purchased yesterday, so no adjustment needed.   Wink

Dividends were scheduled like normal for today; I'm just now able to log in (as I believe everyone else is as well finally).

I'm guessing the dividend script was taken offline, so dividends should hopefully be paid soon for today.

There were eight shares purchased today after noon which shouldn't receive the dividend but will; I'll cover these extra dividends out of my pocket.

I've removed the EXCH ask until the dividends are paid.

I'll be traveling for the holiday weekend (July 4th in the US), so posts will probably come later in the day than normal. Dividends are prescheduled, so there shouldn't be any issue there.

maybe the last difficulty jump was the deathblow for a bunch of older farms and they're being shut down

although asic "burn in" is probably more likely, the incentive is there to jack up the difficulty and suck up all the early adopter advantage before shipping
