Bitcoin Plummets Below $7,500

I'm loving the stock today. The site I bought my 1050ti at has actually cut the price of the 1070 and 1080 cards they have in stock. Its a miracle. 1080 is $640!
 
you COULD argue shame on the banks for giving that person X amount of credit which they can not payback. if it's Crypto or porn.. it's all the same to the creditors spending of $ ya dont have.

Debt is a huge business, they have companies that contract to market Debt itself for petes sake. Why do you think they have cosigners? Seriously, could you imagine making 25% returns on something?
 
What's the saying? When you owe the bank $50,000, that's your problem. When you owe the bank $50,000,000, that's the bank's problem.
Well that used to be true. Now, that still becomes your problem, just in a more roundabout way.

sorry but i dont 100% follow you here but do agree that debt is the core of the business.
 
This may be good for GPUs. It will level out and rise again one day and I will be ready but I am not so sure that it will rise to its ATH. The market was totally irrational. Shit coins were super valued and the fact that anything got as high as it did is pretty crazy.

Hard to say what the market will look like in 5 years. We might all be kicking ourselves because we didn't buy at $6500, or maybe because we did buy at $6500 and it went to $2000.
 
The BTC technicals are pretty bad at this point.

0.618 rally retracement level is breached (~$8900) decisively. This means the rally from $2K to $20K is considered over, i.e. it's not just a correction.
All short and long term MA are breached.
The oscillatory BB bottomed on the daily and hourly basis earlier today at 1PM.
RSI daily hasn't bottomed yet. Look for a reprieve and opportunity to set a new course once it does.

Based on pivot points, $5K is the next sign post. If it doesn't hold, $2K is the next sign post.
 
I think this cryptocurrency stuff will help the young generation be better investors than any other generation. There's no generation that has invested at such a young age and learning about the ins and outs of investing. One of the best ways to learn is to fail and learn from your mistakes. So many people will do this at a young age and be better investors for it.

to mine 1 bitcoin you need over 6500 usd in china worth of electricity

Uh... I don't think you'll need to spend 6500 in electric to own a BTC but whatever. If you buy it, then it cost you whatever you spent, if you mined it, then well that depends on a whole lot of other factors...

Seriously - I've not ever seen such a WAVE of n00bies on HF, not until the mining/crypto-currencies craze... Nonetheless, welcome to HardForum.
 
That wasn't the point of my claim... You're talking about the entire BTC network - duh. I'm talking about solo and such. Hardforum doesn't take take insults or smearing snarky attitude very much, so I would encourage you to be mindful of the rules on HF.

You're technically correct and while that wasn't the premise of my claim. You getting what I'm saying though?
 
to mine 1 bitcoin you need over 6500 usd in china worth of electricity

What are you talking about?


With my GPUs, I mine out .013 btc per day. To get 1 whole bitcoin that would be ~77 days.

Electric is ~.013kw/h for ~525 per month.

77 days is roughly 2.5 electric bill payment periods.

2.5 * 525 = ~1312 && 1312 != 6500.


Give me 6500 worth of electric and i can mine out nearly 5 BTC which at time of this post would be worth 32K.

To be not profitable, bitcoin would have to drop to that 1312 price point. That ain't happenin.
 
So many hoping that Bitcoin will disappear are so very wrong.

There has been a lot of changes in the past year. Countries have started regulating crypto but also many countries have accepted it.
This alone makes sure that the lowest value of Bitcoin will still be higher than when it was this summer (around $2000). That is still x2 gain from beginning of 2017.
The huge drop right now is because there was a bubble that blew up from mid December to mid January. It was crazy how much money entered crypto in one month. 500 BILLION dollar.

Also, mining is here to stay because crypto is here to stay.
If anything, people will buy even more GPUs to make up for lost income.
I myself have plans to expand my mining operations. I plan to earn at least $2000/month, regardless if I need 5 GPUs or 50 GPUs.

That sounds like something from "Zap Brannigan's Big Book of Mining"

if you could only read a bit further , you would see thats it includes the whole package , not just electricity .....
 
this seems to be a bit off. either the amount of electricity or btc per day is off IMO. what is your farm made up of?

15 1070s, 26 1070 Ti's.

Last month electric: (actually paid $263 lol)

Its impossible for it to reset to jan 2017 prices, or dec 2013 prices?

And isnt difficulty going up 10-15% a month?
