why people thinkt he diff is locked now? i still see the diff increasing in all the coin on whattomine, and i can easily buy gpu on amazon, if i can everyone can, there is no shortage of gpu, there are plenty available

What? None of the good mining gpus are available on Amazon or anywhere else for the matter unless you want to pay 3 or 4 times retail.

what you are talking about i see plenty of 1070 available https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=1070, many arrive on 12 june, which is not 28 days

I don't know anyone who mines on nvidia. That's not to say it doesn't happen... Higher price (easily 1.5x to 2x the cost of AMD for the same hashrate) which means longer return.. Lack of cuda optimization in many miners. Noobs are going to be looking for AMD because that's all anyone ever talks about for ETH. Larger farms are looking for returns, paying twice the price for the same hashrate doesn't make financial sense.

what??? nvidia is very profitable at the moment, you don't mine ETH with nvidia, and it's not 2x the value for the same return, with skei or x17 nvidia is doing more than amd, much more, i can't see the reason to buy amd now

Small miners buying GPUs off of amazon are a drop in the ocean.

The real shortage is for larger miners not able to get bulk orders through right now.

In a month when AMD has more chips out, you better bank on all of them going direct to farms and difficulty spiking.

100 small miners buying 10 gpu each isn't different from 1 big farm buying 1000, what i'ms aying is that the diff is increasing even now, people are adding gpu
