Amazing increase in difficulty. I rub my eyes: we've got +18.08%

If this trend continues, many people do not reach the ROI before Halving. Even with the steep increase in the value of BTC. It seems that even in January and February will see double-digit growth difficulties.

Just something to think about for when the price really starts moving up. The hash rate is going to be unbelievable.

The halving ETA keeps moving closer and closer : 2016-07-21 12:10:50 UTC (31 weeks, 6 days, 12 hours, 40 minutes)

Network capacity is more as well as more space is available due to a larger number of blocks per fixed time period.

I see halving in early july.  I am not sure who's hash this is. if sp tech put the sp 50 batch out .  they may have been this bump

okay people 3 new members  all joined the forum  this month  they are marked above.  suchmoon and I have decided what to do with prize btc and prize compac usb.

I realize the prize is very good so new names are to be expected  but I will track and make adjustments if this pattern turns excessive  in fact I am inclined to not let any more new members pick this adjustment.
  The three in can stay in but no more new members is looking like it may happen here.  Since suchmoon pays the btc I will defer to him on allowing the 3 new members to stay and have a shot.

 If he does not want them in I will drop them off. We have mentioned in more then one of these giveaways that a rush of new accounts would call for action.    NO New members will not be accepted in this contest they will need at least one month old sign up and decent  posting.


I have put down how those three new accounts will be handled.  AND no more new accounts
For now I will wait to see what suchmoon wants to do with the three.

And I am banning any more from this point on during this adjustment period.

No more for this adjustment.  


And suchmoon can decide about the three that are in. He has posted that he is reviewing the 3 but is inclined to keep them.  He needs to look on a better screen then his cell phone

Ok, I don't like doing this but I have to agree with HerbPean. These are totally utterly worthless user accounts very likely farmed by the same person. It would be unfair to the other participants to leave them in so let's remove them.

I will tell them this if they are willing to give me their mailing addresses by 1200th block made also know as 816th blocks remaing.

 in case those  one of those picks win. I will send the winner  a compac usb stick. And they are not eligible for the btc award. All three newbies must satisfy this or all three will be eliminated.

I won't accept po boxes business  address only address with a real name.  BTW when I send  prizes out here and I have sent them out on more then one thread I always want a real name for a real address.

So in theory I need 3 verifed different addresses to award the stick.  Seems fair  .  and we can leave those as unpick-able picks so if they all give me real addresses for the stick up front.  and one of them wins they get a free stick.

but the .316 btc rolls over and next round I give away a new free stick.

No regulars get hurt and if they were all legit and one wins this time  they get a stick. It just means I give sticks away two times.

From the next contest on account must be  at least 1 full month and  a junior member and pre-vet with me via pm

It's not too late to pick.

However it is too late for ROI, apparently. Especially for us poor schlubs who bought batch 1 S7s for 8 BTC each  Shocked

got 2 batch 1 but also a batch 4 for 3.6btc ... So avg cost went quite acceptable ;-)

When there are 816 blocks left then the contest closes as stated on the first page.  Insane hash on the network, someone just flipped the switch on a mega farm or many mega farms.  This looks like a hash war

This is going to be one heck of a rise.
I miss the summer as well as others heh, but the price is nice to see for a change in the action.

I hope we see something around 400 that sticks for a bit and levels out for a while for other variables to catch up and even out.

I am not surprised to see avalon holding hard at their price, but I thought they would try to be a bit more competitive.

Maybe we will see a fire sale and then a holding pattern for a month at least.

So many new miners too. It has been a rush of people who picked up S7s and built out 10 - 50 - 100 TH mines.

This is crazy...

Thanks!

This is INSANE.  Undecided

Not sure what to think. This isint just S7/A6 being sold. Maybe the SP50 made their way to an industrial setup in massive quantity? The Gridseed supermega data center flipped the switch?

A while back i asked about measures to prevent people from entering multiple times. It did not seem like an issue at the time and thats the reply i got then. But seeing now how so many "new people" are showing up, i support "raising the bar" a bit.

We'll definitely break record for difficulty in 2015. It's almost %100 guaranteed to get more than 10.44% which is the highest % of 2015 in November 24. Now expecting more than %15, that's crazy.
