I would look at ROI as triple what you see to be conservative. Only other large factor could be a bull run and if you buy you're set and geared for it, in place of scrambling to acquire hardware at higher costs. There's a lot to weigh, I wouldn't purchase unless the capital you're using isn't going to hurt if ROI isn't achieved in a time you're comfortable with.

looks like spec had changed for the full, unless I'm late to the update from being on holiday. but 42k sols at 970w. Hopefully with OC's on cheap power.

Maybe be we broke Bitcoin with four blocks in a day.

May have been a nice wake up for them should you have lost your house.

I think all frodo is saying is their fork made their efforts void more so than than the introduction of overt. Or maybe I'm misinterpreting as well or am just had to many beers to see straight or read well.

That's some good communication to notify you that it's about to be shipped. I guess they are for review/breakdown. Is philip's on the way to? Wish we're getting a demo, makes it easier to sell to buyers when we've seen it can perform. We don't care to keep anything, just run it, pull it apart and ship it back since as a company we don't mine.

Simplest phrasing is: "to market". With a Q4 release pending bull or not it would be more of a matter of speculation. I can't recall if they released specs yet, but without physical product performing it's hard to say. My expectation for any asic right now is 25+ TH/s at about 1500- 1600w to trend inline with current industrial modeling and have enough ROI to entice mass market.

Still want to watch not just your temps but power expenditure. Max profits will be more of a factor in coming months. Nice though to see market stable in the $30+ish/day range.

Yea, T2T is the best option out currently. My S9i though is considerably quieter than my avalons and the early s9 when all at 100%.

Would be great to see -ck's work on these products again, along with some other collaborations we've been working towards (no collaborations with -ck and mfb to be clear, just a thought).

Was speaking with my sister who manages B2B integrations on the software side. Would be nice to work in some business access to manufacturers help streamline their bulk and non retail products/items.

Yes have to while the weather is decent. Rain is supposed to be coming. Probably try and take my beard mountain biking. Just need a meme with a hipster on a bike with their long beard in the front basket to complete this image in my head right now.

I was looking up some fans this morning. Can hear the ball barrings on one of my units need some love.

It was obvious once the T2 came out. From Halongs postings and pull coordinating with Innosilicons surprise announcement.

Halong had better market appeal of a start up, particularly working with MyRig as sales/support. When consumers support you there's no better marketing. A simple powered by or with Innosilicon asics would have done the T2 hugely while retaining the Halong brand. Then my opinion was they should have waited for sales with the T2T being their frist T2 model. As the T2 was just barely an upgrade IMO.

Sure T1 deliveries were poor, software/hardware needed work but most of that was worked out in a reasonable amount of time. AB to me is a non issue, if anything it helped drive decentralization of hash. Unwelcome surprise for some but nothing a user couldn't work out easily. Malicious or misleading, no. On the unfortunate end now pools like slush are much larger. Then good side is so are some smaller ones.

Mostly the hipcup with the T1 was the over extension of some partners. To make anything work you have to know your limits. It would be like us promoting tech support. Not something we focus on, so not something we're best at. Brokering, routing, transfers, shipping/receiving, sales, sure. Basic troubleshooting, ok. Beyond that, we're happy to let others take care of what they do best.

Oh, and yes, that's the T1 firmware you're after. I still might talk to -ck about what is best to use.

I can see I'll be missed heartfeltly. Maybe everyone should take a trip to Crater Lake? Block % My recreation budget is pretty tight now, time to buckle in for the winter.

I should travel more if this is the case.

Hopefully they do blades for the A9 for immersion. It seems that it's just a small adjustment on the PCB layout to change how everything is attached compared to what you pull out their standard tube housing. Hopefully they drop the huge MOQ if they make the next series. Even then, if they allow advertisement we'll be happy to set up a batch buy for everyone in the world to participate in.

Have to keep in mind moving to Q4 soon and more and more efficient gear will continue to hit. Hope I can replace my s9's for the T2T or something else in the next months. Unless you have a large op with cheap power and just want to bulk up on cheap gear. My S9i is much better I than the original s9, I imagine the s9j continues but still not as efficient as the T2T at least from the posts philip shares and a couple others verifying. 

Well hopefully it depends on the when you reserved. Early worms, early hashers?

Apparently these boards are limited in quantity and won't be advertised. Not sure what the cost is for them but MOQ are pretty high to make my dreams of a blade tank in house not possible with these unless we can get a group going.

Also, looking at the pictures I might mount these to be able to pull a single blade out at a time. Then I'm no pro ... .

Those look great. We'll see for my next round since we started the group buy for APW5. Bookmarked the page for now.

What? Stalkers should make you feel sexy. Desired.  ... block? % & beeerrr.
