Title: possible KnC/bitfury hosting..?
Post by: eestimees on July 25, 2013, 11:29:39 AM
Hi,

While I was adding mem for one of my servers in DC, I realised I could offer hosting if anybody interested.

here are some thoughts:

1) i'm in estonia - close to sweden and finland to ship me your devices (i don't have time to go and pickup my self)
2) i have orders from KnC and bitfury myself
3) i have several businesses one of them is offering VPS's so with some thinking I could save you from VAT (i think we must sign a contract that I will "buy" KnC device from KnC but all right to the device belong to you or something.. this is a legal thing and needs a little thinking with persons who know these things, but anyway if i'm hosting your device i will not do anything without hosting contract - a signed contract is a must.
4) KnC device is little more than 4U, if I install a shelf, I can rent you 5U space, I don not know how hot these miners are, but maybe you can put 2 miners on one shelf.. DC room has proper cooling, where cold air is pumped out the floor in front of racks, so each server/miner/device can intake cold air.
5) i can install some linux firewall and a switch infront of miners, where agreed tcp port(s) are for forwarded to your device
6) you configure you own device, I'll help to that point where you can remotly log in (i setup IP and after that you change you password and configure mining)

price for 1U space is 150 eur for 3 months + VAT.. that includes all costs (space, internet, electricity, possible manual restarts..) sorry can't do without VAT legal business and no monkey business.. if you have your own business inside EU and have a valid tax ID you don't have to pay tax, I must check from my accountant (who is on vacation at the moment), but I think that selling service to US is also VAT free, but I might be wrong.

paymen is by invoice 1 quarter in front, if payment is late, device will be powered off after already paid period ends and will be powered on after money is in bank account.

so KnC needs 5U = 600eur + 20%vat -> 720eur / one quarter (3 months)

sorry no monthly payments, I don't have time for that, this is not a business, it's just for fun and earn a few euros for beer or something.

If there will fit 2 devices, then price is the same.

Bitfury is a smaller so you can fit more devices there.. maybe 4?

this is not official offer, these were my thoughts..

If community wants it, I can do that.. as I'm pretty much unknown here, I can prove my identity and whatever things to some trusted member..
I'm active btc miner from 2011.

So hit me with you thoughts and tomatoes :)
