we have 801 blocks to go.  and slipping lower (-1.72%)


https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

price is 238

 would have to say the last 4 months have been stable price wise and difficulty wise.

from jan 20 to may 25th price has been 228 to 238  with a peak near 298

and diff was 43.9 Bill on jan 20th it is now 48.8 Bill

Pretty smooth for 4 months.

I wonder what the next 4 months will bring?

I'm thinking we will see new gear sometime within it.  But I could be very wrong on that.  New gear/chips has slowed down to a crawl with low btc to blame in my opinion.  I think the companies broke the cycle of new gear and are enjoying using the old gear for a little extra and slow the R/D down a little (although some could have chips or something up there sleeve, waiting for right moment to launch).

I just don't see near the hardware expansion it seemed like we were always doing.  And eventually halving will come into effect and could be scaring some off.  I'm unsure how halving will be done with existing miners.

There needs to be either a significant hardware improvement (< 0.25W) before the halving or there will be a huge diff drop and/or price rise. As it stands now most hardware including the S5 would become unprofitable overnight.

@notlist not sure what I will be writing come Sept 20-25

hard to think diff will be 55.5 bill  and price 248 that week but maybe the builders of gear realize that the big boys are going to put a chip every where you can think.  If I were bitfury ,knc, bitmaintech ,avalon, sfards  and I thought 21 and quallcom  were going to sell routers all over the world with 1 watt 10gh chip in it  I might not want to build gear anymore.

  I might do exactly what is happening mine and stay stable.

100,000,000  10 gh routers             = 100 ph 
300,000,000  10 gh electric meters  = 300 ph
600,000,000  10 gh tv sets              =  600 ph

I find it interesting were getting a negative number.  I don't think there is any new coins to attribute it to.  Price is hanging in high 230's.

I'm wondering if just luck or if summer is taking effect.  I was thinking summer we might see some old gear drop off (existing dragons,  etc).  But I'm not really sure what to expect with difficulty moving so slow.

So it is 10:18 PM the 25th are we closed?

suchmoon provides the prize money  so he has final say.

But we did give a lot of extra time.  So I would guess it is closed.

I think let's consider it closed.

 current real number is -1.95%

about 2 or 3 minutes to go.


here go to http://btc.blockr.io/charts

171 on 5-17-2015  most about 95 of the blocks were last adjustment.  bitcoinwisdom still uses them for the guess in the future.

so above is 27 over norm of 144 for the day,  but only 10 for the 'real' count this adjustment.

143 5-18  -1        +9 running count
138 5-19  -6        +3
138 5-20  -6         -3
153 5-21 +9        +12

110 5-23  -34      -22
145 5-24  +1       -21

141 blocks made   a -3

grand total is -24

with 1204 made  so   1204/1228 =  0.98045 - 1 =   -0.01954   which is:

 (-1.95%)  true real time number.

Honestly, I'm a bit confused by the charts on bitcoinwisdom.com at this point.  The reported hash rate for the past 504 and 1008 blocks shows a very definitive down trend.  However, the 2016 block line has actually trended up.  It's completely the opposite of what should be happening to that line...

The last 2016 blocks include that spike to ~370 PH/s that we had before the last adjustment. It will move down if the current downtrend continues, but the drop is not going to be as sharp or deep.

148 + 1 = 149 blocks    you need add the 1 since 357337 was made today.


so 149 blocks with 55 minutes left = at lease + 5 today
