Well BFL just upped their prices and lowered their performance. So that might keep people from buying more. They claim they will start shipping in the last half of April but who knows with them. Has a lot of people with their jimmies all rustled over at bitcointalk.org over it but then anything BFL rustles a lot of jimmies there.
Wow, I would have bought a second SC unit if I had known they were going to literally double the price. They're really capitalizing on the higher bitcoin valuation.. when the bubble finally bursts I expect a pretty big drop in their prices.
They might actually be close to release if they're upping the prices now. Who knows. I mean, they claimed they would ship in December, too.
Oh yeah some have good reason, some I suspect are trying to get people to cancel their orders so they move up in the line. Others just have a hard on for bfl
Its going to pop sooner rather than later. It is getting a lot of press though, mainly because of the Cyprus banking problems. I did see an article for a bit coin ATM on cnn money yesterday. So its certainly starting to catch on
That's the way I feel too. I've long since paid off the video cards I'm using and I've already paid off the 3 jalapeno's I bought so if I get those before the difficulty really goes up, I should make some decent money.
From your mouth to <insert deity here>'s ears. At that price I could pay off my rig in a month or less. And potentially build a couple more.
Well current price is $182, was a high of 194 earlier today. Lot of volatility in the market. I'm wondering if buying and selling might be slightly more profitable than mining but I never try to time the market or hold on to anything I mine. Basically I have a auto pay out set with my pool of 5 coins, transfer those to mtgox, sell, transfer money to dwolla account, transfer money to my bank account, rinse and repeat.
