Just checked current hash rate (
https://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate).
Was shocked to see
rise since July 11th is more than total capacity beginning of June! Jumped 110,000 GH/s, since July 11thCurrent Difficulty: 26,162,876
next difficulty(?) 41,577,173 59% rise[/color]
Few of the recently made chips will have made it to assembly lines yet. May more jumps of this quantity (not percentage) are likely.
Hope my October order for new ASIC can achieve ROI. May be unlikely when all manufacturers have shipped their current orders.
