www.dzminercoop.com

==

Please contact thomas_s for questions and payments or to manually confirm your reservations, as I'm in more of a Miner Cooperative Support Role for this particular new model Group Buy (and potentially others). If you have questions about Round 19 unit hosting please contact bobsag3.


1 share is $225 per share, which gives you 1/50th of the miner's hashrate.

Since this is a 3thash unit, that works out to 60 GH/s per share for R19/19B. Unit will be hosted at bobsag3 at the world's lowest hosting/management fees, for a limited time. Incremental and monitored Overclocking will be implemented as we'll be keeping things nice and chilly.

Your share price includes acquisition of an estimated 20 minutes of UPS/Battery Backup + Gas Generator backup, included in the discounted share price to keep BTC flowing during: short outages (blackouts), voltage sags (brownouts), and voltage spikes, as well as to provide power filtering. The special purpose Gas Generators our co-op buying power allows us are meant for providing power during longer outages.


===

If you have questions as to how this whole darn at-cost, Democratic Miners Cooperative that's also a mesh network works, please send DZ a PM or state your concerns publicly as there's nothing to hide in this co-op.  Smiley

Only hurtful or trolling posts will be deleted as we welcome all valued opinions, insights, concerns, and improvement ideas to improve our at-cost (or even below cost) cooperative of about 37 120 members (so far).

An At-Cost Democratic Miner Co-operative with the world's lowest fees
for vetted miner hosting/management services:only $250 per month per miner!

~120 members: 1 Scientist, 7 admitted IT Pros, 3 Network Engineers, 3 Electrical Engineers, 2 Finance Employee, 6 GB Coordinators, multiple vetted host sites.*

*Note: A listing above does not necessarily indicate that this person runs or contributes to the running of the co-operative, but many of the pros listed have made their services available to the co-operative. Also, there could be more than 7 IT Pros, but some geeks are meek.  Cheesy


========================================================================================================================================

This Co-operative is led by a John K. vetted Network Engineer based in Hawaii, DyslexicZombei or DZ, who gets to design prototype IT hardware and lab/field networks in support of cutting edge research projects, and has been in the line of work of T&E and R&D for nearly 10 years, with 50-60 Hawaii/US Aerospace/IT/R&D/Civ.

Our local/remote admin is bobsag3, who is also an IT veteran. There are 5 leaders in the DZ MC, with thomas_s and I doing the actual running of the Cooperative.

Mining Equipment will be operated by vetted IT pros, with backup host sites available. Payouts are on the 1st and 15th of the month minus a $150 host/management fee, the lowest around.

Once sales begin, Refunds are available up until unit ships at 1.5% restock fee. We vote on all buying, shipping, and resale decisions as well as vote on the month to attempt equipment resales after 5-7 months of operations.

Vetted GB Coordinators are encouraged to team up to increase buying power and close out Group Buys quicker. All suggestions are welcome to help improve our Co-operative.

R19x Orders should be placed here: http://www.dzminercoop.com/?product=r19-2-knc-neptune

BTC Payments will be directed to thomas_s via our site for R19x.

For US Customers: for a 3%  fee for USD conversion to BTC, we recommend: Cash Into Coins a FinCEN compliant MSB, and official DZ MC partner, who can get BTC sent to the wallet address you want in as little as 15 minutes to an hour.

Official DZ MC Reseller link: https://cashintocoins.com/index.php?code=dzcoop

For Intl. Customers: We are still exploring suggestions for inexpensive BTC conversion but I can recommend www.bitstamp.net at this time as that's the exchange rate used by our payment processor.

If there's any concerns about registering your payment, please follow up with a PM to Thomas or a support ticket. There's two methods to resolve this:

A. Send a support ticket on our website www.dzminercoop.com

OR

B: PM to thomas_s on this site

Subject: DZ HF GB R19, x shares, x BTC
Details: Please include Tx ID, your wallet address for payout, and any concerns you may have about your transaction(s)

==

thomas_s -  Primary GBC for Rounds 5-19. Co-GBC during R3-R7. R2 member. Send BTC payments and questions for R19 to thomas_s . Set up Online Auto Reservations for the co-op!



===============================================================================================================


I will accept any wires for 15+ Shares.


===

Thomas is handling questions and collecting payments for R19x via our site (unless you require Escrow, in which case you can PM DZ). He set up the automated reservation site and the GB with my input. Great work Thomas, and it's definitely an improvement over me trying to keep up w/ an avalanche of PMs and payments.  Tongue

Thomas and DZ will still handle or assist in:

- Ordering
- Shipping details
- (Optional) Escrowed GB shares for those that insist on Escrow Protection from a 3rd party for: holding BTC funds, post-sales dispute resolution, $500 insurance per transaction at 2% extra cost to share price. Semi-automated Escrow is done thru BTCrow.
- Remote miner setup
- Remote troubleshooting/
- Incremental overclocking
- Payouts or assist in payouts
- Auditing hashrate vis-a-vis payouts
- Dispute resolution and arbitration, if necessary. [Should be rare as we're all adults that don't need to yell. Tongue]

Refunds: Refunds are discouraged because of the chaos caused in Group Buys, but if necessary, you will be refunded before the miner ships, at a 1.5% restock fee. After the miner ships, no refunds are available.

By sending payment, you agree to these Refund terms before purchase.

===============================================================================================================

NEW (10/21) Share Ownership Transfer Fee: There is now a 0.75% Ownership transfer fee if you're buying someone else's DZ MC co-op shares. We put a ton of time, money, and BTC to offer the GB community many of the world's best at-cost and below-cost deals. Refunds and share transfers cause chaos and extra work for us.

This 0.75% share transfer fee *MUST* by paid by the new owner before we will transfer share ownership.

Hopefully you guys have thought about this already,  but dz should all use the same reseller address... get more bang for the buck.  Sell the lots in a group of 11.

Nice to know that we're all on the same wavelength about things like this.

quote from the OP:
"We've purchased 2 KnC Neptunes that are estimated to be shipping sometime Q1/Q2 of 2014."

what does Q1/Q2 mean: (Q1 = January up to March / Q2 = April up to June)

March/April 2014?

this is a long time from now, when i'm correct with that months...

Did they even announce the pricing yet.  Based on this your saying they are asking $11,250 for 3 Terrahashs ? ($225 x 50 shares = 11250)
Are you sure this will be the price ?

that is why you buy a share in r18 due in jan a share in r17 due in feb and a share in r19 due in march. 

 cost is 70 +110 + 225 = 400 and buy .5btc to hold

 risk management at its best.
3 separate orders please.
Each round should be a separate order.

Yes, please separate Round orders from one another. For example: if you bought from R17 and R19. 2 shares in R17 would be 1 order, 5 shares in R19 would be a separate 2nd order...

Our backend tools don't separate this and instead lumps all the BTC together, meaning we have to do all these back calculations which can lead to possible errors.

Its fine if it only happens once or twice, but can cause serious problems if any refunds need to be done as I may allocate your BTC slightly different between orders.

Mahalo to everyone that bought into this round for KnC. They are the gold standard for releasing ASIC miners IMO.

Merry Christmas everyone! If you celebrate or don't celebrate this holiday, my toast of good cheers to you and yours is still the same. I'm thankful for our customers and I'm thankful for you co-op members that have helped make this co-op the success it is today by helping us improve things over time and helping one another out with knowledge. 5 months ago I had no idea I'd form the biggest public co-op in the world for BTC mining.

It's an honor to be the founder and co-leader of a co-op full of so many like minded miners, and I'm both humbled by our success and very thankful to have met my co-leaders, which has resulted in round after round of world class values, and a crypto umbrella company founded upon the core of the DZ MC (with the co-op shielded as a sub-company).

Here's to a successful 2014!

The following rounds will have a hold placed on transfers, this hold means no transfers will be completed until the hold is lifted.

R17
R17-2
R18
R18B
R19

This hold is being placed because a few addresses are still needed and a constant change in the spreadsheet can cause problems.

If you are a shareholder in one of these rounds and have not provided a payout address you will be receiving an email this weekend requesting one please reply to it immediately, if you purchased in multiple of these buys you will get one for each you must reply to each email you receive.


ENSURE YOUR REPLY HAS THE ORIGINAL EMAIL IN IT.

Going to go ahead and bump this, and bring a vote to order.

Want to check with everyone if we want to proceed with a refund on this.

We can either:

Sell the 2 preordered KnCs (we are very very much at the front of B1 Q)
Ask for  Refund from KnC, either in BTC or USD (they seem to be doing both)

Can you summarise why we might want a refund? I've probably missed the news... Have they slipped, or are we just looking at the current diff and not seeing much profit to be had?

I must me missing something or extremely gullible. To me it looks like development is on target, they have a way of compensating for any slippage, and performance is generally better than expected.

That... seems OK to me?

Could we please have a bit more information on what prompted the refund poll?

It's hard to make an informed decision without any relevant information.

Nothing more irritating than going into a group buy thread with a title that says "OPEN" to find it's sold out! Update the title please.

KnCs "plan B" + the recent difficulty + timeline on receiving the item.
I personally dont care, but I think we can actually get more BTC returned than paid, due to the current exchange.

2 shares refund

If we can get a prompt refund from KNC in BTC at today's rate then we make a small BTC profit (no cash profit). I vote for this as long as DZ don't charge the 1.5% "restock" fee. This is not co-op members requesting a refund from DZ, it is the co-op winding up the GB.

Not entirely clear the motivations for the refund are in everyones interests here. Bobsag3 is already doing refunds on the undelivered R17 (Black Arrow) but refunding the original BTC amount which is of course for most people worth considerably less now in dollar terms. I suspect bobsag3 is getting refunds in $ at the original value and pocketing the difference. Bobsag3 if i'm wrong I apologise, but please clarify, you have ignored the issue so far on other threads!

My assumption is that we would be sent the dollar figure in BTC at today's exchange rate. The cost of this group but was quoted in $ in the OP. Hence my comment about making a small BTC profit but not a dollar profit. This is not us requesting a refund, this is DZ winding up the GB and distributing the remaining assets. Those assets being the refund that the vendor provides to the co-op.

Bobsag3, can you please clarify this for us?

We would be taking a full $ refund from KnC (assumed since we only ordered 2), and using all of those funds to re-buy BTC at whatever the current rate it. So everyone would receive the same $ amount roughly they put in, but extra btc possibly.

So far it seems that the general vote is to sell.

There were 100 shares sold in this round. So far the following people have voted publicly to sell and refund in the "poll";

Railzand  2 shares
bakal      1 share (? based off blockchain BTC transfer amount)
Tasweb  1 share
vancon   1 share
gh2k       2 shares
trippn      1 share [EDIT - updated, thanks trippn!]

That's only 8% of confirmed shares (votes) accounted for (plus any share holders who may have voted via PM).

Any of the bigger share holders (I assume there must be some unless DZ bought most shares themselves) have an opinion they wish to make public?

I voted for a refund however this doesn't really owe me anything so the final outcome doesn't concern me greatly.

I vote for a refund, if BTC will be more than what we invested refunded and you can pull it off before BTC price goes above $700 again.

Then I would say Yes, go for the refund and buying back the BTC route.  But please do it quick.

We are moving ahead on a refund on this, I should have a update from KnC tomorrow on weather going to be in BTC or USD.

If In USD, BTC will be repurchased at the time of the refund, and distributed to everyone equally by share minus the 1.5% fee. Should result in everyone getting more BTC than paid in.

Does it have anything to do with the following?

We have just switched banks (you will notice if you check out with Bank Wire our account is no longer a Bank of America in St Louis, but a Local Wells Fargo), due to the many issues we had sending refund wires from our BoA account. We are currently finishing moving over the funds from BoA to Wells Fargo, and anyone who is still owed a refund check by mail will be getting a Wells Fargo business check refund via UPS within the next few days. Tracking numbers will be sent via the applicable zendesk tickets.

I sure hope you are going at this aggressively, Bobsag.. right now the price is under 400 so we could get an amazing return in BTC at least. probably even more than we could have had we chosen to mine. but this has to happen fast!

Hi Bobsag,

So that means the bitmine group buy is running now right? Because I haven't received any pay out for that.

It might be because I haven't supplied my payout address yet, but I can't login to your new website to see my order numbers.

If payout is done before I supplied my payout address that means you still hold my BTC and will send it to me when I give you the payout address right?

Thanks

We're still looking at close to a .5btc refund.  60GHs will never mine .5 btc
We're much better off with a refund.

Also I don't know what the hosting costs would come out to per share for this beast but that will more then eat up most of the mined coin.

Example:
Here's the last weeks payout breakdown for GB1 with Ninja's Group Buy.
This GB was for 30GH per share (currently running at 18GH/s till we get the Neptune delivered) with weekly $4.50 hosting fees per share.  This is high I believe compared  to this GB but just so you can see what I'm talking about.

Dividend - Week #13
Total Earnings: 3.489BTC Payout Addr
Total Shares: 290
Hosting fees: 3.063764 $4.49x290@$425.00/BTC
Amount per share:   0.00146633
Tx Fee: 0.0036 Transaction

5.5 TH/s produced 3.49BTC this week
There are 290 shares at $4.50 a pop for hosting ate up 3.06 of the 3.49 making it so each share was only paid out .0015btc

Given this is with low btc/usd value but this is what you have to consider when you say you want to take the hardware as apposed to just taking the refund and putting it to use elsewhere.  With .5btc you are over half way to your own S1!

any news on this? and on bitmine refunds?

why do i get this feeling that they(manuf*uckturers) are stalling whenever price of btc vs usd goes down, and when price of btc vs usd goes up?

they are so greedy. they mine to refund, but prices of btc goes up, they delay. i learned my lesson on pre orders.

anyway please keep us posted. thaks bob, thomas, dz,  coop team

What do they mean at the time of processing ?  price at time of purchase or price now ?  What would be the difference of getting a BTC refund if you are buying back anyway.  Unless your saying they are trying to short us to take the original amount.

I just got an email stating the refund by wire was sent the 19th, nothing as of yet this morning in our account. As soon as it appears, I will be rebuying BTC at the current market rate, and everyone will get their share of the BTC minus the small fee (1.5%)

EDIT:
Wires have hit our account, 2x $10,082.00. Depending on when they clear/when I can buy the BTC, current market rate is ~492/btc, ~40.98BTC total will be purchased not including the fee.

The other option, is right now with the exchange rate where it is, we could purchase (7) SP10s instead. That would give us approx. ~10TH Vs 6TH with the Neptunes, and we can get them hashing as soon as next week, as well as ~2BTC left over being added to the first payment in leftover. Downside to this is higher hosting costs, $110 per unit per payout. We have till next Thursday (When the BTC clears from coinbase) to make this decision, Thomas and I do not care either way.

0.376 was a mistake, It should have been 0.3376.

Seems off even with fee.  I got back $215 worth of BTC today per share.  Would have been only worth $193 per share the day (May 22nd) if it was purchased at spot $522. (Should be close to $225 which is the original amount we paid minus a fee as of the 22nd value and should be much higher value than the original amount we paid ($225) currently since BTC price went up 19% since BTC shares where purchased)  - Simple looking at the USD values this makes no since at all.

2x $10,082.00 at Spot $522 = 38.6283 BTC per share that is 100 shares at 0.386283 BTC

That is a difference of 13% 0.3376 BTC vs. 0.386283 BTC.  Are you telling me the fees for buying the coins and fees we paid for management come out to 13% ?

Well in USD value you got back less than you started with.  Even though BTC was purchased at 19% less last week, some how we all get less USD then what we started with.  And yes the best way to look at this is in USD since we all paid the same amount in USD (but different BTC amounts).

I have not yet received my refund for the 15 shares I own. I am not the original owner of these shares (I purchased them from Lloydie). I suspect I might have gotten missed. I sent bobsag3 and thomas_s a PM about this, but I haven't heard back from either yet.
