Okay, so ASIC is going to be better. Is it more efficient in terms of money spent per GHash? I ask because I have $176,000 US right now. I have another $50,000 or so coming in within the next month. With all the power that is about to hit, is the price of Bitcoins on the verge of another major drop? I still want to do this, but like I said I want to be able to add whatever new blockchain I want. perfect examples: Geistgeld and Liquidcoin both look extremely tempting right now. I wish I could mine those in addition to the ones currently listed in P2Pool.
