Re: The recent price rise is really bad news for Bitcoin

This seems very unlikely to me.

1) If any gov't or entity succeeded in owning enough BTC that they controlled it it would kill the value of bitcoin and its appeal would be lost.  The financial industry would go into this knowing they'd be losing hundreds of millions of dollars to try to kill BTC.  Perhaps that's better than having BTC become a realized threat to their industry.  But the issue with that is...

2) There are plenty of other altcoins ready to step up to the plate if BTC becomes unusable.  The financial industry would have to go through this same process over and over again every time a cryptocurrency hit $15k or whatever threshold they deem threatening.

I just received my first D3 - I was shocked to see 20GHz average!  Smiley   AND very happily surprised to see that I had the option to control the fan speed!   (50% works perfectly and is much less noisy than the auto-tune S9!)

Just wanted to say "hi" to the thread... I'm sure I'll have a ton of questions.  (i.e., pool questions / firmware / etc.)
Sounds like a happy man to have a received a D3 miner capable of doing 20MH/s Cheesy Have you checked whattomine.com recently? Hate to break it to you, but your profit is $2 a day and heading down fast!

only been mining with my 2 D3 for 24 hours and i will say profit is way more than $2 a day. lol

Can you elaborate, at least ballpark?  Still waiting on my three D3s coming in the end of November batch and curious about the real-world profitability.
