Hey finlofs I guess you haven't been round here long. Everything in your rambling post has been gone over time and time again. You are repeating yourself like a mad man. Read page one, then take a chill pill. Alternatively sell your shares the stress is killing you. lol

i know yall like to point out icebreaker's bad trade he made by turning 120k icedrill shares into a sierra, but at least he turned his "worthless" shares into something.

You do realize that is Sierra is officially worthless? His best bet was to get it inside of October, which did not happen.

Can I ask a legitimate question?
How is difficulty rising so fast/hard when the people producing the machines are starting to find it hard to get a decent price per g/h ratio? Who is adding the difficulty? Is there a private company who has some next level generation ASIC? Or is it just a whole bunch of people new to Bitcoin buying miners and not actually realising that they aren't really profitable?
I just ask as I'm curious if we will reach a point where people will realise that the difficulty/profitability ratio is not worth it and ditch their mining equipment, thus resulting in a difficulty decrease?
