I'd like to be more optimistic about Bitcoin prices, but with the history of the last year, it is hard to be.  What will happen that could pop the price up?  Litecoin has had a slow lumpkin dive all year as well.

The Chinese people who paid for that farm are fools.  The time for profitably mining bitcoin is so over with.  39 billion difficulty is insane.

DAMN do I wish I knew in December 2008 what I know now about bitcoin and mining and the spikes and dips in its price over time and all that!  I'd be a BILLIONAIRE now!

Dammit dammit dammit!!!!! Angry

In 2-3 years from now you'll look back and say "why didnt i invest in mining equipment when the difficulty was so low and before the price hit $10,000?"


You might say the opposite , if the price drops. Its hard to predict what will happen.

Bitcoin has been like this eversince. Back in 2011, it went from 250$ back to around 65$,

and then in 2013 went upto the 1000$ mark, so its always an unpredictable market.

Wow they missed a whole lot of needed thihgs. Its amazing for a country that has firewalled Bitcoins farms like that exist, and now we see what is included in the bi-weekly drop in the value of bitcoins. The chinese have a one day millionaire mindset like the Filipinos. they did so many things wrong and so many things right bin this picture. I wish i had the resources like they do.


You guys do understand exactly what this is right. It is a manufacture mining farm. the manufactures of the miners own farms like this all over china, where the machines that you buy from them are "tested" when you make a purchase they pull the miner off the rack blow the dust out replace the fans with lower quality shitty fans and replace the PSu with a lower quality PSU and sell them to you.

Its sickening how they are destroying bitcoins value with thier ignorance and selfishness.

If you cannot ROI in BTC you are better off buying BTC and get a bigger fiat profit than if you mined.

Is this farm making any profit? Inquiry mind likes to know.

of course it is. Likely paying low power costs and difficulty increases have really stagnated along with the price - a god thing for mining.

another rocket guy here $10k LOL. its like you need the NY stock exchange to accept BTC in order to achieve that dream of yours.

I'm not saying rocket, I'm saying that bitcoin is growing in acceptance and recognition. Its gone from a few cypher punks to early adoption phase.

I'm not saying $10,000 will happen, but i think that in the next 3 years bitcoin will either be under $200 or over $10,000 depending if it actually continues to grow and gain utility

Bitcoin keeps growing, people keep building around it but the price could be at 3000$ in 3years not less than 200 or more than 10k$ Wink

what if someone destroy that place? how can they secure it?
They don't publicly give out the location of the warehouse housing the miners. That makes it more secure for them, because then the owners (and the article author) are the only people who know the location of it, and what goes on inside.

Good article, they must have invested millions.

A big farm would see an advantage by destroying other big farms so they better be careful.

on my last s2 miner then will be gone for good - been taking half my btc and putting in wallets and buying GH with hashlets cloud mining with the other half so I can help keep the network rolling.

Tough to make any moola with electricity bills and the price drops of btc. At this point I'd rather buy a btc then pay a $300-$400 pge bill

There's no way I could sleep in a warehouse with all that noise, flickering lights, and industrial cooling.

Not least of all is breathing all that toxic air coming from miners, warehouse, power supplies.  Definitely can't be healthy long term walking around that place 24/7.

The heat, the noise, the power bill, the work (unpack & install new miners, monitors the others), all these worth ?

yeah and it is very likely the power cost is under 5 cents a kwatt.  If you look there where a lot of bitmaintech boxes.
so how about 1000 s-3's at 5 cents a kwatt? plus if bitmaintech built the place the gear was not .58btc a s-3 more like .2btc.
Competition against that is not really possible for the little guy.

I think this is what new miners are failing to consider.  They think the S3 costs 0.58BTC or whatever number they have on their website.  The true cost to male it is some fraction of that, so when manufacturers want to build their own farm they can always beat home users.

Yeah I am pretty sure my garage days of mining will be ending this spring. The heat i get will be helpful for the next 5-6 months. after thatI will just pack up the gear. and call it quits.
