I have to agree as after the next diff increase to be scheduled 25%+ Y'OUCH after that my miners are pretty much done Undecided

The only hope then becomes SOLO MINING and catching Lightning to come ahead. The real culprit here is EXCHANGES!!! They are the DEATH OF US........ And Yes we only have ourselves to blame!!!! Because we gave our Bitcoin to those who have MONEY and and all these PUMP and DUMP chumps care about is FIAT! not BITCOIN! We gave them THE POWER TOO KEEP BITCOIN DOWN!!! If only PEOPLE HODL? IT might of been a different story........... BUT anyone that sold BITCOIN FOR CASH? YOU ARE TO BLAME....... and companies like BITPAY they are destroying not helping Bitcoin because they SELL IT RIGHT BACK and keep BITCOIN DOWN it will never rise like it should with these companies and with RICH people able to take Bitcoin from MINERS hands THE JOKE"S ON US!! We do all the work buy the equipment, pay for electricity and with a couple thousand dollars they just REBUY and DUMP IT DOWN and us MINERS are the ones left HOLDING THE BAG...........
Maybe the next generation if Miners will LEARN ? NOT TO SELL........but with companies like GHASH in play that's highly unlikely and noww it's way too late ........... So we only have ourselves to blame and Yes Miners will say " I HAD TO MAKE ROI" you should of learned some simple ECONOMICS beforehand! ANY TIME YOU SELL YOU DEVALUE! People shot themselves in the FOOT ! GAURANTEEING NEVER TO HAVE ROI because they couldn't LET GO OF THE FIAT!!When BITCOIN was suppose to replace it!!!!! DUH.........Only if they HOLDED on to their BITCOIN would we have a different story! We were THE FRONTLINE it was up too US and we FAILED MISERABLY because we couldn't LET GO OF THE FIAT Cry

This is why SATOSHi probably left BITCOIN because HIS DREAM for BITCOIN ? WAS TO REPLACE FIAT! NOT SELL IT FOR FIAT Roll Eyes

You are exactly right... ive been mining since march and dumped 20k into it./ I haven't once sold my btc for fiat ever!! I have only used fiat to pay for power bills.. all my mining revenue goes into more equip which I purchase in btc.. but as of late its a losing battle. I often compare it to the chasing the dragon scenario so many heroin addicts go thru...:/
