There is still a possibility other "cloud service providers" buying hashingpower at PBM.
Who knows maybe someone has a business concept "Buy cheap , Sell Expessive"
Not even a bad concept , make sense to me.
I've seen crazily expensive mining contracts for sale on eBay. Two weeks ago, I saw that 1 TH for 1 week was about $325. Granted, they have to charge more, since eBay and PayPal take about 13% away in fees, but charging triple was just ridiculous.
Today, I see:
1 TH for 12 hours is worth maybe $5.50 + electricity, but they want 9.99.
180 GH for 24 hours is worth maybe $2 + electricity, but they want $3.25.
1350 GH for 1 week is worth maybe $102 + electricity (not taking into account Monday's upcoming difficulty change), but they want $115.
Ok, these are decent deals compared to what I saw two weeks ago. PBmining is still a better deal though.
