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.
