'The right to privacy matters'

Any drop is always welcome.
Glad that mysterious 50PH.s went and stayed in hiding...

you and me both.

with 103 blocks to go we are at -3.40%

https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

price is 222 usd

so about 12 noon on Sunday eastern standard time we will know what the adjustment is.

I am very interested to see the upcoming number around may 2nd or 3rd. I wonder if we drop -5% with the upcoming warmer weather. WE need a price thread but that is really hard to guess.

what happened to the 12ph that where on tron?
what happened to antpool, is it back to full speed?

so y the -4%? Roll Eyes

inefficient farms for btc but ok for pumped shit coins?.....

Also most mining is Northern Hemisphere and the heat is coming.

For me summer rates jump from 13 to 16.9 cents. Add in heat factor my winter rates are 10 cents and my summer rates are 18 cents.

For others worse then above. Now I sold off 12 sp20s and 2 s-5's . I kept the 2 avalon 4.1's . I clocked them down to 1600 gh vs 2200gh as I don't need the heat they make.

I suspect a lot of miners are starting to down clock. So a home miner may have a 20% drop off. Since we are not the big amount of network hash rate our 20% drop turns into 3 or 4 or 5 %

Yep. I had to down clock my S5s to the default 350.

so you may have dropped from 1300gh to 1150 gh say 10 or 11% x tenthousand others just like you and that is 15ph . Yes the southern hemisphere adds some as it is cooling say 3 -5ph a net drop of 10 or 12 ph

and you are right at our current -4%. we are now at -3.70%

https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

we have 127 blocks to go

I went back up to 400 with mine for today as it has cooled off sufficiently to keep miners running under 50C. How hot do you allow the rigs to get before dialing them back?

The s-5s are really sturdy what are your error numbers? As in under 1.0 percent is okay. under 0.100 percent is good. under 0.02 is really good.

So if you are really close to 1% errors back off the freq.

as for temps I suggest
under 60c as very safe.
60c to 65c as so so .
65c to 70c as pushing
over 70c for 24/7/365 as foolhardy

The auto shut off is 80c but there are reports of it failing to work. So I would not run in the 70+ range.

11th downclocked to ~10th
sp20 and sp10! the last one not so much but sp20 is reaching 120C per more than half of asics at ~25C ambient temps
s3+ and c1 have no problems with higher temps. sadly they need to go as i want one miner edge or 2...

I am looking at www.bitcoinwisdom.com

(-3.50%)

221 blocks left

Bitcoin Difficulty:   49,446,390,688
Estimated Next Difficulty:   47,717,551,792 (-3.50%)
Adjust time:   After 221 Blocks, About 1.6 days
Hashrate(?):   327,923,230 GH/s
Block Generation Time(?):
1 block: 10.5 minutes
3 blocks: 31.4 minutes
6 blocks: 1.0 hours
Updated:   0:10 (5.3 minutes ago)

www.coinbase.com is at 224 usd

with 221 blocks left negative is certain we would need to do all 221 blocks in under 24 hours time. that won't happen.

Pretty amazing another negative. Looking back a year ago I would have never guessed so many negatives in the future.

I was guessing positive, man was I wrong.

not so sure what to think. I saw this starting when the s-3 came out and the s-1 was downclocking to 1.2 watts

thus the new gen was 1.2 to .8 watts I predicted the big slowdown would be worse with the s-5 only doing .52 watts.

What I missed was price dropping from 350-400 late last year to the current 220 now.
My guess is if price were to jump to 1000 usd or better yet 2000 usd we would see insane growth I am not to sure what is best for the coin. Have to wait it out.

I'm still not sure when all the A1's will be removed. I thought it would have already happened. But with so many negatives I think there are quite a few A1's still providing hash.

I think there is a lot of "old" gear that one day will come off just not sure when.

I don't think we'll see prices like that for like two more halvings; but since the number of block reward coins then will be 6.25, at $1000/BTC a block would still be worth basically the same in 8 years as it is today.

I don't think the price going below $200 will affect the difficulty much. It might affect it by around -5% or so. We were below $200 for a couple days and the difficulty wasn't decreasing anyways.

For miners its worse because about a month ago, price was almost $300 and difficulty is pretty much exactly where it is right now but we were making 25% more.

Its not a linear curve.

Price might go down 50% and difficulty might only go down 20%.

I think the reason being is that many miners right now have free electricity and for them it doesn't matter what the price is because they are always pulling in a profit.

Yeah and while I have a 2.4 cent setup it is only 2 s-3's . In a friends office.

I will soon move 2 or 3 avalon 4.1's to another friends place he has 0.07 usd power and while 7 cents is not as good as 2.4 cents it is decent.

the whole game will turn into spot mining only in under 8 cent power places.

My big thing is getting a summer mining area. Cooling by fan's and extraction of heat is a lot cheaper then AC. A cant pay AC bill to cool all of my gear, so currently next few weeks will be making my new summer mining area.

last summer I switched to gridseed blades 17 of them. mistake first off my pc like running 12 or 13 of them not 17. then the ltc market crashed.

only good thing was power was down to about 1500 watts. this summer i want to stay under 1000 watts.

I got rid of inefficient gear. The A1 1T, and S3's (hated to get rid of them loved them). I will be starting summer with around 10k watts. I thought I would be much lower... but I ended up going from 12k to 10k. So now I have to perfect the fan's and exhust. Hopefully get some of the parts this weekend and start out on it. I'm lucky to have a lot of room for miners.

I'm really looking foward to the summer design I have. Will be nice to have them all in same room.

I have some very good fans that I won't be needing.

I can send them for postage only let me know itf you want them my zip is 07731

Thanks for offer. But I had a coupon and some gift cards I used on fan's. I should have them soon.

I've got some of the electrical. Still going through it on list.

I'm hoping to have a little done this weekend. We will see if it happens or not. Hopefully it at least is started if plans go as I think.

My big thing is getting a summer mining area. Cooling by fan's and extraction of heat is a lot cheaper then AC. A cant pay AC bill to cool all of my gear, so currently next few weeks will be making my new summer mining area.

last summer I switched to gridseed blades 17 of them. mistake first off my pc like running 12 or 13 of them not 17. then the ltc market crashed.

only good thing was power was down to about 1500 watts. this summer i want to stay under 1000 watts.
