'The right to privacy matters'

What is GBTC and what does it have to do with diff adjustment?

Is it your thought that this will raise the price of BTC?

http://www.nasdaq.com/symbol/gbtc/stock-chart

looks to be put on hold see link above.

there is a rally of sorts as I see coinbase.com at 232 usd

Well according to difficulty its down to -1.78%
So with the oscillations we might see somewhere near 0 it would be fun to see it be exactly 0 in percentage terms haha
Adjust time: After 504 Blocks, About 3.6 days when I was checking it out.

0 is more likely then +5

with 75 percent finished block wise the max we can do is 3 or 4 %

we just seem to be bouncing along very close to zero gain.
My house got a bit hot today so I lower my power for mining and my hashrate by 240 watts and 300gh

So whatever new gear sold now

S-5
s-4+
avalon 4.1 is being balanced by downclocking for heat.

I would love to figure northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere percentages.

My guess is 70 percent above the equator but no info on that just a guess.

GBTC could start today or tomorrow. And price is a little ($ 6-8) bit up. If this happens till weekend , then I guess we can wait for a + in diff for this time.

Even if it isn't negative, it will be a small positive. As I mentioned, I think this is strictly the oscillation of variance, as opposed to anything substantive in terms of actual hashrate.

I believe this is up to date.

145 Apr 19th half old adjustment
155 Apr 20th + 12
157 Apr 21st + 25
149 Apr 22nd + 30
131 Apr 23rd + 17 blocks is real time number
124 Apr 24th - 3 blocks is a real time number at the end of the 24th
159 Apr 25th + 22 blocks
151 Apr 26th + 29 blocks
135 Apr 27th + 20 blocks
150 Apr 28th +26 blocks
130 Apr 29th +12 blocks

1494 blocks made we are plus 12 so our real number is : (+ 0.809%)

Really flat with 522 blocks left

Bitwisdom still showing a negative:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    47,610,564,513
Estimated Next Difficulty:    46,876,026,659 (-1.54%)
Adjust time:    After 506 Blocks, About 3.6 days

I think there just might be a chance of a second negative.

151 Apr 26th + 29 blocks
135 Apr 27th + 20 blocks
150 Apr 28th +26 blocks

we made 1368 blocks so far

'real' time adjustment rate is : (+1.93%)

bitcoinwisdom is: (-0.97%)

coinbase price is 224usd

Bitwisdom showing down even more now :
Bitcoin Difficulty:    47,610,564,513
Estimated Next Difficulty:    46,991,591,586 (-1.30%)
Adjust time:    After 627 Blocks, About 4.4 days

Would be nice to have two negatives in a row, but i don't think we will get that lucky. I hope I'm wrong though.

As of last nite we were 26 blocks in the plus , but we have some under numbers today , so negative is possible. My guess would be +1 % TO +2 % is most likely.

+26 or - 26 blocks when compared to 1400 blocks made show very little action one way or the other..

2 days at 130 would get us to negative we did do 131 and 124 on Apr 23rd & 24th.

I think most of the mining world it threading water waiting to see what happens next.
We miners are very much at the mercy of coin price. Why expand when coins are cheap.

14 million coins = about 3.5 billion usd may 2015
10 million coins = about 10 billion usd dec 2013

the above = slow diff

i didn't follow too much, who won the last diff change?

and there is another peak to choose?

Nobody won last week. Its rollover. This time prize is 0.2 BTC and rules have changed a little bit.

Anyway, picks were closed 3 days ago. They are full from -2.5 to +5.75 without any interval. But its very uncertain , however it seems we will get a positive rate according to last 3 days.

And closing out the night bitwisdom went down just a little bit more:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    47,610,564,513
Estimated Next Difficulty:    47,331,767,323 (-0.59%)
Adjust time:    After 799 Blocks, About 5.6 days
Hashrate(?):    345,791,889 GH/s

Price is heading downwards slowly currently at 227. Hopefully it can change to up again, that would be nice.

Small move overnite and coins base is 223usd at the moment.

While I won't complain about an increase in BTC price, a rise from $218 to $230 won't really have any significant effect on mining operations I don't believe. I don't think there are Petahash's sitting on the sidelines just waiting for a $15 bump in BTC price. Now $300 will motivate some folks to restart operations in my opinion.

I think it's not so much about someone restarting mining, but perhaps someone not turning their Ant S2 off just yet. By the way I purchased my S2s nearly a year ago and they are still (barely) profitable at $0.10 USD per kWh. Marvelous. Spondoolies SP10 is another ancient model still running strong.

yes or a small miner downclocks and upclocks avalon 4.1's or sp20's

since the power efficiency changes with the clocks.

we have made 1218 blocks we are +20 so we should have made 1198 blocks this means we are +1.66 %

We had some very low days the 23rd , 24th and the 27th were very low.

The 20th, 21st and 25th were very high. this pattern looks like variance more then a trend. but who knows.

We are not going to get a huge jump at once I don't think. I think we will see smaller amount's if we get gains.

A 6 percent gain in one day is still very very nice. Look at it percentage wise not dollar raise.
