The latest difficulty predictions are looking like it's going to level off.
Which suits me just fine Wink

Well, I think it's awfully early to project that. All we know for sure is that we increased 28% and then 24%. I would be pretty surprised to see an increase under 10%, though it's possible. We've averaged ~18% for a few months, so a reversion to the mean wouldn't be too surprising. That said, it sure seems like Avalon batch 2/3 will be shipping for awhile, and BFL keeps ramping up shipping. No sign that ASICMINER is slowing their deployment either. The ASIC wave is still building!

There should be a small slow down trend when GPUs disconnect. Mine are switched off since 2~3 weeks. Perhaps actually around 50 TH/s are due to GPUs still working.

Yes, that is probably true. But this is a gradual process, if people have good information and know how efficient their GPUs are. ASICs coming online will likely replace that 50 TH/s rate fairly quickly.
