Order's like that on S7's and Avalon 6's could keep us at these high difficulty's.  I hope we lower it some, but I think what I wish and what happens are two different things.

Also price around 395ish most of day so pretty stable. But we just can't break that 400.   Once we do I think it will be interesting how fast it goes up.

High price, efficient gear coming out, and cooler temps for a majority of the mining population equate to high difficulties for the whole winter I think.  This thing is going to keep climbing 'til the halving, because of the factors mentioned and probably because a lot of people are going to be in a push for the 25btc block reward while it exists.

since we have about 435ph older gear  and about 135ph newer gear

And my .25 watt s-7  at 10 cents is better then a washington state .51watt  s-5 at 5 cents   more gear will be added as long as price support is there.

395 usd is good for   ^ diff

300 to 325? 

 they have collected more then 35,000 btc  for s-7's  which could be 7000 units or about 35 ph

Yes even with the new diff increase we are still at +5-6% for the day. Keeps going up and up.

Do you know when Bitmain will stop building the S7? I assume they only ordered a limited amount of the S7 ASIC chip. Once they run out, its going to cost millions to manufacteur more.

yeah that would be a nice piece of info to have. 


@ bitmaintech feel free to let me know how many more you will build.

And while you are at it  please put aside 2000 chips for sidehack.

Thank you sirs Smiley


Yeah !! please !! Tongue

I think very wishful thinking on getting him some chips.  I'm actually surprised he got some on first round.  It would be great as I would love a POD out of some new chip. But i think scale is small where they can just as easy put it in their own machines and make more money chances are.

So I don't expect chip sales unless you show up with a lot of cash.    So no small order, order a batch and then they would do it chances are... but that is a lot of money to tie up.  And for community to round up that kinda cash not easy.

I just hope this week difficulty slows down a little bit.   I really want those 5 percents again, I liked those changes much better.

What is the bitmain purchase BTC address again so we can calculate how many units of S7 were sold?

i dont think bitmain expected these kind of sales.. i know i didnt.  that said im sure they will have an endless supply of chips ready for production as long as the btc keeps flowing in.  i may be a bit off but 1 btc per th is more expensive than miners cost 12 months ago.  correct me if im wrong.

I can't believe the amount of hardware coming online, it's amazing.  I expected one large-ish jump but we've had several now and there's no immediate sign of slowing down.

Early spring will be very interesting to see if we are at the 100G diff threshold and on the cusp of the halving, I can't wait to watch that roller coaster.

So what are you Guys thoughts on how much of this increase is S7 and early Days Avalon6 based and to what degree we are beginning to see SP50 & Bitfury 16nm deployment, or.... is all that yet to come? I guess also at the moment, with the price the way it is, if farms have the space & power there will be very little old stuff being turned off which all adds up?

Well we moved more then 130ph

Oct 15 2015   60,883,825,480   0.12%   435,823,399 GH/s  My s-7 and batch 1 s-7s  started coming in this jump

Dec 06 2015   79,102,380,900   8.77%   566,236,898 GH/s

So most of it is s-7  I did look at s-7 btc addy on bitmaintech and I am well over 7000 s-7's based on btc deposits  so that is 35ph out in the open.

My readings and other info from posts and links  show over 5ph in  avalon6's  So that is easy 40ph  far under the 131ph added.

So 2x the 40ph = 80 ph   and I think 80 ph is too high for s-7+ avalon6  that leaves us 51ph 'missing'  .  I have to believe some is Bitfury + Sp50.

I would love to know if the sp50 does well under .2 watts as claimed.

Still even with 131 ph at highest efficiency 435 ph is not very high  we will go up.

 I do want:
260ph new
435ph old

around 700 total.

I am lazy but looking fast current prices of 390 usd would support  100 diff / 725ph.

a  1150 th machine with .51 watts the s-5 makes 20 usd a month at a diff of 100 a price of 390usd and power at 10 cents

So we certainly could approach  a diff of 100 and hash rate of 725ph in the early spring if price stays at 390 usd.

Price seems to be setting in 390's.  Which is not to bad at all. I still want to see 400 +.

Were less then 5 dollars from it but I'm guessing there are some sell walls to break through.  Also it's still very early but here is bit wisdom.

However    we are still going up ,  boy  of boy  a  price crash to 180 like last Jan would be very interesting.

It would make all gear other then the s-7 and avalon 6  losing gear unless you have 8 cent power or better.

I was thinking along those lines yesterday... basically that would be the only reasonable way for me to ROI on Batch 1 S7 (in BTC terms). The one that I paid 8 BTC for. Arghhhhhh...

On the bright side, Batch 6 at 4 BTC is probably going to break even and might even make a coin or two if the resale value holds up.
