I have 10 BTCs I want to invest to increase my hashrate. This is a nonbinding auctions, since I can anticipate people disagreeing with the best offer. But I plan to use all 10 to buy hardware.

I prefer hardware I don't have to host.
Shares in GB are okay, but no I'll host my miner for you deals.
Securities are okay, but lower priority.


This is a great way to cash in on your hardware!!!

10BTC is a good wedge of hashing power, But I might suggest you just get new, Get a 1TH S2 for 6 coins and try and order 4 S1's now.

Problem is, I bought my S1's only a few weeks ago at a bargain price of 1.9 BTC  :o

You will not find many users willing to let it go for 1 coin, Unless they have a large amount of hashing power to:- either have paid it off all ready, Or able to cut a loss also to make a S2 preorder.

It's hard trying to keep up, I remember doubling my earnings by buying a second 5850!! PMSL

S2 batch 1 is 6.88 btc and batch 2 is 6.343 btc and they are sold out. Good luck get an S2 for 6 btc.

I ordered before I posted this and got it when BTC was a little higher,
The bitmain site runs it's BTC prices off dollar value of the coin.
Amazing how BTC can fluctuate like that.

maybe I can help you find a nice wallet for those 10 btc....I have plenty of ants looking for a nice antfarm.

How about this for a deal:
12 x Sapphire Toxic 280x (Brand new in box)
2 x Asrock BTC-PRO Motherboards (Brand new in box)
12 x USB Risers (Brand new)

Mine new scrypt coins or even scrypt-N, scrypt jane (Asic proof coins) and see a ROI WAYYYYY quicker than you would with any asics mining btc...

And not to say the least you have AWESOME resale value compared to asics that wont have ANY resale value other than scrap metal after you have ROI

You are better off not wasting the coins on mining  :P

Ohh unless its for Scrypt..thought you wanted BTC gear my bad.. Spartan has good offer.

i have 25% of a neptune hosted by dzco op. i would be willing to sell this off if you r interested

10btc worth of miners would likely consume too much power for a residential grid connection...

From the 12 toxics I'm able to produce 9.4mh/s at under 3500watts. They are the best bang for your buck and most sought after cards. I have 56 of them running and 14 sitting around unopened sealed boxes collecting dust lol

For 10btc you can get about 1.8 TH of sha256. At 1W/GH that comes to 1800W. Easily doable at home.

the dragon miner 1TH units are cheaper then the S2 - currently around $3250 shipping a few days sooner than the S2 that was $3799

however:
1) btc prices dipped slightly since the S2 went out of stock, so BTC/BTC prices are pretty similar
2) The dragon miner semingly cannot overclock. The S2 stands a very good chance for overclocking based on the bitmain track record (i will be moderately dissapointed if my S2 cannot achieve >1.15TH)

howver - hardware immediately in-hand is a huge benefit, and it sounds like you have some space and power for it. I would suggest buying 10 antminer S1 units and some server supplies to run them all

Sorry for going off topic. What do you mine with 56 GPUs? :o

For the moment it's vertcoin

I have 12 Antminers with assorted Gold rated PSUs that I could part with for 10BTC shipped from NY.

Follow three easy steps below.

• Sign up for CEX.IO
• Buy hashing power
• Start mining.

I assume you are in the US?

LOL at overpriced GH/s that you can never profit from.

Depends if OP wants to host, 10 BTC in cex.io will yeald 961.5384615384615 GHs (at time of post) if he wants to consider hardware, This can gather 1.8TH.

I do run equipment on cex (as well as others), But I dont buy there for this reason, I make much more by paying the power costs.

when will we get ROI from there?
GHS price is overpiced there

7-9 months in my case.

If you are buying gh/s at cex.io you might as well rent it from me.

The question is can I trust you and how reliable your service is.
With CEX.IO, once you buy GH, it's yours for life. (unless I get goxxed by CEX.IO)
Can you provide same confidence and service with cheaper price?

I see your point.

I only have 1.6-1.7TH/s,not a mining farm like CEX.IO. I have had maybe a hour downtime in the last 3 weeks mining. I can't sell you GH/s for life but I can rent them out for 24hour-7day contracts if someone was interested in mining an alt coin. I don't see the point of paying bitcoin to mine bitcoin.


Point taken.

if you are looking to invest it in any kind of cloud mining, there is someone doing a comparison here;

10BTC will get you ~1.4TH on PBmining for 5 years.

the budget is large

hope you lucky

mining contracts cost more than operating yourself (obviously), so if you really want to invest well then you should buy ~2TH for 10BTC (there are a few good deals in this range, depending whether you can spare 2w/Gh or prefer 1w/GH)

I run a 3TH (soon to be 4TH) farm of antminers, and its quite simple with almost no actual upkeep needed (clean the f--king heatsinks every 2 months). just lots of heat and noise that can be tricky to handle in warmer climates or in a small apartment/house.
