It's good seeing this dangerous new technology getting slowly crushed to death under the iron-heeled boot of state oppression.

It's funny how everyone was afraid of bitcoin getting crushed by nation-states, when in reality, most countries left it alone and its downfall was its own user-base comprised of hyper-egotistical, greedy, selfish, antisocial man-children who couldn't come to an agreement if their life depended on it (their money depended on it and they sure couldn't do it).

Don't forget to say "thank you" to our colleagues from China for the exemplary job they did at Huobi.

I was watching that 20K coins dump live and it went through the order book like hot drill bit through butter before it switched to CHEAP COINS! phase. Did somebody get "hacked" again, or is some miner a weak hand and quitter?

A number that means mining is highly unprofitable and should force miners to dump more coins causing increased downward pressure.

Whats so special about $225 in this regard? Don't mining costs depend on electricity costs?

Just did some math.

To make ~$225 a day by mining, you would need 110,000 GH in mining power.

110,000 GH * 10 Watts/ GigaHash * 1 kiloWatt/1000 Watts * 24 hours = 26,400 kW in power a day.

If you're paying US$0.009 per kWh (well below the US and even global average, think rural Chinese miners using heavily subsidized power) it will cost you around $235 a day in electricity.

So $225 is that point where it's fallen below the B/E and doesn't seem to be picking back up quickly. This causes miners to dump their coins to cover costs, putting further downward pressure on the price.

I'll be honest: I am surprised that we are still at $225. A year / half a year ago I was expecting that we will already be in the lower double digit Bitcoin apocalypse days by now. Doesn't change my expectation of the exact same outcome in the end, of course, but wondering how long this will still take.

no, the problem is that at some price level below $200, the mining rewards dont cover the cost of electricity.

the Butters claim that this will result in people turning off their mining gear, the difficulty will reset and the problem will fix itself.

except that's never happened and there is really no indication this is how things will pan out. Probably what would happen is we'd have a period of uncertainty followed by miners using their hash power to fork the chain and steal Butts.

I'm not sure that's what would happen. Since the peak back in December of 2013, we haven't seen the price dip below $200 for more than a very short period... if we see sustained price levels below $200 (e.g. for at least a few weeks), I have no idea how it'll play out, but whatever happens I'm sure it'll be entertaining.

I honestly didn't think we were getting this low until college tuition was due. Good work colleagues.
