You might be right, you might be wrong. Who am I to say? I am not a time traveler from the future. Many of us like to gamble.
I sold half of my video cards at the peak of the market just about two months ago, intending to buy them back when prices dropped.
And even though that strategy worked well for me, it was still a gamble. I have not yet bought them back and now I am not sure I will.
But the other half are still mining away, and after selling the others at near 100% profit, this half has cost me damn near nothing to own.
If only electricity were free too.
Your electricity is in your bitcoin. It doesn't evaporate.
Gridseed does not solve the issue, by charging you $200 bucks or more above and beyond for the same KH/s. That $200 premium can not be cashed out with bitcoin. You need to wait, and let the system pay itself off, that will take a while. (i know in the long run its smarter/ but there is a curve where the two lines intersect, and at this price point, that intersection is far far away)
Also like I said in the previous message, there are technologies that will help you get that power cheaper then what your power company is charging you. You did not have to wait for gridseed to employ those, if you are mining smartly, you are thinking of reducing your costs on both ends, and power generation is one of them. If I can pay off a turbine or some panels with this tech, than I am gaining an asset from mining indirectly. Also, I use the heat of my miners in the winter to heat my greenhouse. So I make money that way as well.
