Dont tell me this is the end off multi pools ?

Soon its going to become Half a 0.005/Per MH Then 0.0025 then Half again, then Electricity takes the lead and then people start selling their gear Roll Eyes

... Im curious if profitability will increase again

Maybe now the ASICS will come, they dont need much electricity, GPUs eat too much. Same that happened with Bitcoin sha will happen with scrypt. Every day I see it more and more clear. First ASIC scrypt are a bit expensive, but just wait a few months and see.

Highly unlikely. SHA ASICS were orders of magnitude better in processing power than GPUs. scrypt is memory intensive and the basic idea was for it to be ASIC resistant. Even in a few months their only advantage would be energy consumption (and in some cases noise, space and heat). In addition BTC was just one coin, you have hundreds of scrypt coins then scrypt jane, variable n etc. All the asics in the world would have to spread their hashing power among many coins. I'll keep buying video cards and if all fails i'll just turn them into a gpu farm and still make money from it. plus they are great in winter
