Thanks for the answers, that is what I had pretty much summed up myself. I guess the question is whether to try to be one of the guys who gets a $20 buyback before the show money runs out and they slam the doors shut on the buyback window. I have been renting out my rigs these past days to the "believers" and was just wondering if maybe I was missing something and should mine some of this latest greatest scamcoin myself. Multicoin pool is showing about a 10 XPY/day potential for my 1.8 Th, and at the current going rate of $9 would = $90, which is right about what some fools are paying me to mine today.
I doubt it's anywhere near 10 XPY per day for that hashrate, more like 5, and it's less than $9 now too. I other words, renting out is a safer bet in a declining market like this - if your ultimate goal is BTC, and not XPY.
