Can you paraphrase that for me?

It always fluctuates.  Eventually it gets low enough that people buy it up.  Then it rises.  Until it gets to the point that the folks who bought it want to sell it.  Then it goes back down.

Rinse and repeat.

So I have checked my router internet bandwidth usage and with my 6 miners running there is not much traffic... maybe 20-30kbp/s.

My router is upstairs and it connects into an IP over Power adapter which goes into my basement and connects to the matched box in another power outlet. The ethernet connection then goes into a linksys 24 port 10/100 switch which all of my miners connect to.

I continue to see the miners perform under their baseline rated hash rates (8GH/s each). I know that the workers screen averages over 10 rounds but they are always dropping down to 4-5GH/s. When I log into the miners GUI they all say they are running at 8-11GH/s... But the rewards reflect the 4-5GH/s and not what the miner says...

Based on the low bandwidth usage I didnt think that was an issue but wanted to check and see what you all thought... Any ideas why I might be seeing such a difference?

I am using BTC Garden Miners that are rated for 8GH/s...

Thanks in advance.

 too bad you weren't around 2 years ago when BTC/USD rate dropped from $10.00 to $7.00. OUCH, that was a bad hit.

Good for you! Welcome to the club.

LOL

Thank you, KNK. It looked so cool and mysterious, but it was just more of the same

so true

If you really believe that switch your miners off for the next 19 and half hours and save some hydro.

My tea leaves are telling me otherwise so I'm leaving the switches on.

Just curious, for those that pay attention to the pool stats,

Does the pool hashrate ever drop during a significant price drop in btc?   I've seen it drop after a few long rounds, but nothing related to price.
