Besides the rise in price is also the corresponding rise in difficulty. When I started this pool in 2015 you had a pretty decent shot of hitting a block or even two by renting 1PH. The very first block I found was with a rental like that. Now, a 1PH rental has a very slim chance of finding a block. Of course, the difficulty when I started was 65,848,255,179. A bit different than what it is now

it is why I used the 1btc example if I rent 1btc at close to the fair price 1/13 or 1/12.5 is my math or percentage chance of a block

problem for me is 10,400 is simply not doable..

1 btc at nicehash would get a lot of hash now

.0812 btc is 1 ph for a day but your chance of a block is around .0812/125 or 153 to 1

at 10000 a coin .0812 btc = 812 usd a lot to lose if you miss.

at 500 a coin .0812 btc = 40.60 usd not too bad

I need my bigger rentals last spring when coins was going over 2000 I realized the only way I could lose out was a cold streak with the rentals . So I stopped them .. At the moment I have 30 gpus mining

here is one gpu of my 30

in 2 weeks time I will earn enough to do a rental here. and I will if it misses I will lose 55 usd
