And remember in reality you need to pay some pool fee and/or some downtime due to various reasons so remove 5 % at least

are you serious? 5% less?  Angry downtime?!?!?!?! lol... now I'm starting to understand why is better sells miners than mine with them......


5% may be high for downtime, 1-2% is more likely (in a 24hr day that assumes the miner is not mining for 15-30minutes (internet outages, setup rearrangement, tweaking/tuning, etc)

as for the calcs, assume the miner arives at the end of february if lucky, not at the beginning
Add a pool fee and some stales/rejects unavoidable and you are there 5 % is the bottom line for me Wink
Plus shipment in the last day of February and arriving about 5 of march i
I am not mentioning the fact that maintaining a miner is not a newbie friendly thing. It is not like a having a fridge and when red light flashesh just to go to a local store and replace it..And listen to the manager excuses offering you one fridge for free and licking your ass... If you folow my mind.  And so on and on and all that nasty stuff is happening at the beginning when you supposed to make the most of your ROI
A week or two lost makes a big difference

The more people jump into this, the more difficult it is to mine BTC, but the higher the prize of BTC will be.

So if the difficulty is too high for my miners i will earn profit anyway cos btc price will be so high?  Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

so you answered my question... if people keep buy miners, btc price, CANT collapse...
Folks like you are buying miners dude with your thinking... 
Once again good luck and pls when you break even pm pm me I am serious no jockeys here

It's a goldrush.
Everybody think it is easy to earn money.
That drive the difficulty upwards.
Not everyone will earn their money back.
Some will make profit and others don't.
Not all my gear will make their BTC back.
But like all the guys who started earlier, we have deep pockets, we can take a lot of losses untill the hashrate stabilize.
If you pay your Terraminers with US Dollars, then I wouldn't worry much.
BTC price looks very volatile, but compare with 2011 and before it is nothing.
You shouldn't worry about that too much.
The more people jump into this, the more difficult it is to mine BTC, but the higher the prize of BTC will be.
The total sum is that you will earn more if you can keep it profitable.
Have faith.

I bought 2 Terraminer IV in November.. unfortunately "February batch". I'm looking every day about hashrate and difficulty and I'm less and less convinced I made a good purchase.

what do you think about it?
I spent 12.600$ shipping included, bitcoins price is going down (when i placed my order the price was 1000$+ and it was raising, hashrate was very low and difficulty too).

is possible that when i'll get miners bitcoin's price will be more stable on 1000$? or I have to assume that the price will be like 600$?

when i bought miners i checked on cex.io/calc my future profit and it should be like 40 BTC first month!!!! now is 28 BTC that should be very good! but do I have to belive it??!

Thanks!
Dude,

What matters is:
1. If February batch will be on time and will not turn to be March or April batch due to some delays. My feelings tell me that it will be April or may delivery but i hope to be wrong on it
2. What will be diff by then. Let us hope that Chinese new year will slow things down because a lot of miners are silently mining there and everywhere

I would say that according to my feelings you will struggle to get even in both BTC or USd assuming BTC price stays around 1000 USD

And this does not apply to you only but for all preorder shit that is going on.
Nothing against you and Terraminer for sure

If you get your miners on time diff will be to high - less likely
if you get your miners delayed same as above - more likely
The only way to get out of this is:

if you think in USD termes - Mine at a loss for next year or two and wait for  btc to raise. No other way to break even in USD only. But question remains if you both 12 Btc for for instance how much profits are you losing...

If btc collapses it does not matter
The only once who will get out of the collapse clean are ASIC vendors themselves Wink
