I'd really like to believe that, if it was tho, everybody from Slush, Antpoo, BTC.com, Bitcoin.com etc would jump over in my common sense. And none of you could estimate a reward with given data, yet everybody says it's the most profitable. And please don't tell me about "because they're not patient, because they like daily payouts" etc, now that's really starting sound like Bitconnect ponzi sh*t. When we find a block, my reward better be greater than .05 BTC.
What happens when your reward isnt .05 BTC? Im no mathematical genius but I can assure you that your 1 S9 isnt going to be putting those number up. You obviously dont understand the recent influx of people going on eBay, buying one S9 (some up to 7k dollars), plugging them in and hoping to be bitcoin millionaires within a month. Those are the people that we are referring to when we say they have no patience or want daily payouts. I just dont understand how you could have read every single post since the beginning of the thread and still not understand. On another note, most of the old timers here have real life mining data. Most of us have mined elsewhere and have seen the payouts first hand in our wallets as you have. Over time the payouts are much better here. This block is a ball buster but the next two may come easy. I would be more conercened about the timeframe for getting my ROI back if I were you and also attempting to figure out how long you estimate for it to become unprofitable with 1 S9 per month. I havent used any calculators recently but one S9 on any other pool with an average electric cost of .10-.11 per kw and their generous pool fees probably is making the ROI of one S9 close to a year at current eBay prices. With the push of all the new miners I would be more concerned about being able to stay in the game long enough to collect BTC before getting pushed out. But alas, that is spec as well. Price and difficulty is any guessing mans game.
