Topic: So who's switching on and off 30Thash ?? (Read 2780 times)
You are not considering the reality that people exist outside of this forum that can casually dump 7 or 8 figure sums into their "hobbies".
I'd put money on AsicMINER. Other than that, it could be a huge mining operation that had a minor issue and was temporarily down.
I remember reading that that chart estimate is based on blocks found, not hashing power. A run of good luck would spike the number.
Right. If chart is based on blocks found. What if it's based on number of shares submitted by workers? Like in pools?
They are solomining.

New ASICMiner record, 61 Thash

That's over 1/3 of the network total.

Has ASICMiner been DDOS'ed lately?

The hashrate drop this week was caused by an internal troubleshooting which took about 10h, followed by a series of bad luck (which happened to involve the whole network).
So that big dive just went back on... thoughts?
Did someone trip over the ASICminer plug yesterday?

ASICMiner is the only known colocation of mining gear large enough to cause a 30TH/s swing in the hash rate.

You guys know you can't just use a 6 hour windows to estimate hashrate, right? Right?!
Of course you can. You can use a 6 second window to estimate hash rate. It just won't be very accurate.
^ Variance, you tard

Why? The point is on 'estimate', not to be exact to the last (M)hash.And what if that site http://www.asicminercharts.com/live/ is showing ASICMiners hashrate as reported directly by the blades?
(BTW, now at 73 Thash 6 hour average)

It must be that miner that uses lightning. Can't wait to get one!
Notice this - last two retarget periods (25.5.-16.6) hashrate increased by 60 Thash!
In that time ASICMiner charts are showing increase from 20 to 40 Thash. So, 20 Thash increase is from ASICMiner, but where did the rest of 40 Thash came from?
In that time Avalon shipped a few units from batch #2, and BFL a couple hundreds(?) Jalapenos. But that's maybe 5-10 Thash. There is still more then 30 Thash of new power unacounted! Some unknown company developed an ASIC in secret?

bingo
something is pushing hash rates through the roof but the SHIPPED ASIC's are only a drop in the bucket
either unknown ASIC or BFL is mining using customer gear
Anyone have a rough idea of what their costs were to build that? ( and what the total dollar cost of shares was? )
Take a look at the original AM thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/asicminer-entering-the-future-of-asic-mining-by-inventing-it-99497"IPO The GLBSE ticker is ASICMINER. 200,000 shares are issued. Initially,
30,000 are for public sale. 170,000 are for private bulk purchase via PMs and the
asset transfer system of GLBSE. The ratio may be adjusted but the total number is
always 200,000. The price per share is set at 0.1BTC."

The max network hashrate were 197 Th/s yesterday.
The graphs on the charts doesn´t show it now, just the counter on bitcoincharts showed it live yesterday.
This is more than 59 Th/s more than todays 138 Th/s.
I find it a bit disturbing, that someone has that hashpower or maybe Avalon just tested their batch 3 before shipping.

You can check asicminer here: http://www.asicminercharts.com/
And here http://www.asicminercharts.com/live/, more 'live' version. I monitored that page for a while yesterday, and noticed a jump in that green column (6 hour average) from 12 Thash to 50 Thash and then back down to 34 Thash!Also, I checked the mining pools stats at http://blockchain.info/pools, and that unknown slice was at 22% yesterday.
I'm thinking that 30 Thash switching is not only from ASICMiner.

What a beast...
