and that is a good point, What rodeo clown was pointing out is that lets say BTC/USD jumps to say USD$5000 tomorrow, what would the price for contracts do, as it would make them seriously unattractive over buying from someone who charges in USD
Would PB change price accordingly to stay attractive or everyone else will raise their prices accordingly to capitalise on the high BTC price
option 2 would be my guess
So......... I've been with PBmining for a couple months now and have noticed them do the following a couple times now. Beginning of this week the price per GH was 0.0048
BTC then we had the BTC value jump, they dropped the price to 0.0046
BTC and then on Friday we had the Difficulty increase and they dropped the price again to the current price of 0.0044
BTC. No guarantees that it's because of price but sure seemed like that might have something to do with it. Like I said they've done this several times in the past. It would be a complete pain in the ass to chase the value of BTC/USD/CAD and drop the price, due to the fact that the value is fluctuating like crazy all the time as we had a $20USD drop in value over night.
