I am joking Micoley but anyone who still holds a large chunk of cash in Argo should be worried today
Ant pool 108 e/h
Foundry 166 e/h
Marapool 4.3 e/h

What don't we know?
Bowler just admit you were wrong and move on, or maybe you find it too hard to say you were wrong?
Argo goes into administration tomorrow
Is ARGO in a pool with other miners or are they mining solo?
Marapool mining blocks slower than most, though peers only get a fraction of each block.

Fees still looking juicy 30+ hours after halving. Long may that continue!

Rewards starting to climb again. I’m not seeing a big uptick in hash yet but I also might not be looking at the figures correctly. Block average is now getting longer.
Mara just chalked up another block 840088 10 BTC in TX fees 13 BTC Total. Awesome.
Sorry brain not working, 6 blocks an hour not 10, so not a massive drop in hash after all. Makes more sense!
Yes good luck all, getting exciting again.
85 blocks since the halving which should be 8.5 hours, but here were are 16 hours later, so potentially hash has decreased more than I expected, but will know more over the coming weeks.
Yep well done all who navigated the last month or so without losing too much of your gains. In hindsight I'd have been better staying in cash for a while but am pleased I circled around between various miners and mstr. At least it was a better strategy than hold and hope would have been when I was pretty much all in on Mara a while back just before their results.
Wednesday things certainly shifted and through Thursday and Friday I tried to follow signs of strength. I'm now 95% miners and nearly half of that in Mara. Not felt so confident about the upcoming days and weeks than I have in the whole run. Whether that's a good or a bad omen remains to be seen - but agree to it being exciting times.
Here's hoping we all see some decent returns in the near future whatever approach you've gone for.

Wednesday did seem to be the turning point and the bottom for now, now the market has to start pricing in this tx fee mayhem, no one anticipated that.... hopefully we all get some good love next week but like always expect the unexpected.
@CLSK - Well MNS already got the 1st part of his 4th April prediction correct. "Expected drops leading up to the halving due to uncertainty in the market, and some further drops immediately post-halving before things settle" Its was a brave strategy to ignore fomo and stop out of the miners approaching the halving, but it has paid off. Maras SP for instance has fallen 10-15% since 4th April. There has been a slight upturn with the miners since Wednesday. Of course no one could have foreseen the ME disruption coming last week just before halving. PI did hint it might be coming. Whether MNS gets the 2nd part of his prediction remains to be seen... I dont think anyone can predict what's going to happen next week... exciting isn't it! Gulp...
Its getting tasty again 11 BTC 9 BTC 7 BTC , would be nice to see mara chalk some blocks up today, they have a little bit of hash with foundry so those figures will be higher but come on the mara pool!
Same to you.
Youre mentally unwell.
Get a grip you berk.
Why mention my bet chaebol. no one won. just stirring things up as you bear grudges. lol. go and make yourself some horlicks.
Poor chaebol bearing grudges. he hated clean spark the best performing miner. the bet moron between me and money never sleeps was clean spark and no one won as it ended at 16 dollars on the 18th april. clsk bet with him was on the price of bitcoin and clean spark. nothing to do with me. stop twisting posts to make me the bad one. you should of bought cklean spark at 2 dollars oh clever one. lol.
Well Stingray lad Argo go into receivership on Monday after running out of money yesterday
Fees easing off now, 3 BTC fees per block just now.
BTC has not been a P2P ecash system for many years now. Sure you can use layer 2 as a cash layer, but really it's digital gold/real estate/etc. has various use cases, but let's just call it a financial asset and not pretend it or any of these coins are going to replace the $.
BTC transaction fees have exploded at the halving from a median $8 to $160. Transactions in each block have doubled..
The launch of Runes and other Degen BTC inscription projects have made BTC unusable as A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.
There are 200,000 transactions waiting forever in that memepool and the blocks are full of what looks to be inscriptions.
Stupid high fees are great for the miners but as more and more inscription projects roll out it looks like the end of BTC as any form of L1 P2P cash system...
Big Blockers may yet have their victory on the Block Battlefield
Bitcoin Cash, same Genesis block, same halvings, same 21M total supply and the same miners with fast transactions and near zero fees could do very well
BCH is on a charge as BTC fails and is unuseable
High fees are good for the miners tho
Mns is waiting for a miner drop post halving, presumably next week, to buy in, might still happen but might go up instead - who knows at this point.
Oh right. Im seeing MBeck and CLSKBull graciously congratulate MNS on a great call.
You on the other hand see something else.
'Well done" MNS x;)
Really chaebol. your wrong again. the bet i put on with money never sleeps was shaere price on the 18th april clean spark. that was it. if the shares were 15 dollars or below he wins. if the shares were 17 dollars or above i win. it ended 16 dollars on the 18th but was briefly 17 dollars. so technically no one won. but do not let your lies and grudges get in the way in having a go at me. get your facts right. lol.
