Press Release on DigitalJournal (http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/1986775)


That's right, more mining hardware! In addition to our $25,000 Mining Equipment Challenge (http://digitaljournal.com/pr/1986775), we are now doing a raffle to celebrate the evolution from MMXIV into Maieuticoin! For more information on the coin and direct links, please visit us on our newly redesigned website at mmxivcoin.com (http://mmxivcoin.com)

It's very easy to enter. Tickets are .02 BTC per entry. Just post here or send me a message saying you want to enter and I will PM you a unique BTC address for your entries. Winner will be drawn at 100 tickets sold so each ticket is a 1% chance to win. If we don't reach 100 tickets, I'll raffle a single unit instead, or offer everyone a refund (depends what the ticket holders want to do), but since both of our raffles have sold out for M, I don't think with offering BTC as a payment option we will have to worry about not selling out

I will keep doing raffles like this all the time if there is community interest. This is our THIRD Raffle! The first two were for MMXIV only to enter. After getting a lot of PM's asking if I would accept BTC, I decided to just do a full BTC raffle instead!



You can keep track of the total entries so far on this doc:

Here is some proof that my raffles are legit from the first batch!

Quote from: Bitmaintech.com
Bitmain is proud to announce the sale of AntMiner S3 for 0.75 BTC each to include International shipping.  S3 is hashing at 478 GH/s while consumes 366 Watt power from the wall.

AntMiner S3 is the third generation Bitcoin mining rig made by Bitmain. It uses the state of the art BM1382 chip powered by the 28nm tech process with ultra-low power consumption, targeting the best combination of power efficiency and low capital expenditure for mining investors.


Specifications:

Hash Rate: 478 GH/s±5%

Power Consumption: 366 Watt at the wall

Power Efficiency: 0.77 J/GH on wall

Power Supply: 12V DC

Size:  331 mm x 137 mm x 160 mm

Fans: Two 14038 fans mounted on both front and back ends.

Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 35 °C

Complied with: FCC / CE

Network Connection: Ethernet

 
Notes:

Power consumption: This figure depends on the PSU efficiency, ambient temperature and the accuracy of the power meters.

PSU: You have to prepare your own the ATX PSU. The S3 ships without a PSU. There are 4 PCI-e connectors for +12V DC input, but it only needs to connect two of them if without overclocking (PSU not included). Don’t parallel connected different DC input from different PSU into the same Hashing board.

 
Features:

Stand alone: The S3 mines stand alone, needs no proxy server.

Quiet: The customized heat sinks mounted to the hash boards, one box over S3 to control the air flow, two fans mounted on both front and back ends that mean fans are able to work at lower speed to dissipate all heat easily. This design let S3 run at much lower noise level.

Stable: Running 24 hours a day with minimal downtime.

Accurate: Hardware Error got from the sample unit rate is as low as 0.01%, hundreds times better than some competing products.

Efficient: High energy efficiency to save your investment on PSU and electricity bills.
