Self moderated thread. Never a good sign......
I wouldn't worry about that. Bitfury has good history. The key will be pricing. |

I've raised this question before: This PMS01 chip is proprietary design of AM? @Friedcat: what is the qfn next to the pin header that's labeled PMS01?
It's our own string-based power management chip for solving the Prisma-related problems. Naming a chip PMS is just asking for intermittent trouble. |

This is not a HYIP.
This is our real power available for the contract.
You'll need to provide some proof of actually mining. Mine a few blocks and sign their generation addresses and post the signatures. |

No. I suggest trying to refrain giving advice when you have no clue (or only assumed clues) of the actual circuit setup in a country with different electrical codes than yours.
There's only ONE RCD in the picture. The things labelled B40, B32 B20 etc are NOT RCDs. There's a reason why this profession is regulated.
So what does your electrical code specify for the maximum continuous load on a 40 amp circuit? |

Interesting. Tell us more. Do you suggest running a UK 40 amp circuit at higher than 80% continuous load 24/7? |

I don't think PBMining is under any obligation of paying with freshly mined coins (Does HashNest do that for example?). As written on the site itself, PBMining consolidates from various sources, including hardware running on different pools, as could be found earlier, as well as rented hash capacity.
Pretending that, because payments are not freshly mined coin there is a fraud, is therefore abusive.
You can trace incoming payments from old customers to payouts to new customers. That's what a ponzi is. It's that simple. |

For example if I have an Antminer S4, which has a 1.4kW PSU, this is consuming 5.8amps? Therefore I can only have 40/5.8 = 6 S4's on this RCD?
Almost. You shouldn't run a circuit above 80% continuous. So keep your 40 amp circuit at 32 amps or less. 32/5.8 = 5x S4s. |

Nah, no access to that.  I was wondering if it will give a login page if I manage to find its IP? I found (what I think is) its MAC address using wireshark, and have given it access to the network, but none of the IP's seem to give any access at all to the control interface. myminer.io is empty as always... Yes, if you hit the right IP address with a web browser it will prompt you for username/password. |

LOL. I paperclipped it wrong. It was actually getting a little power, but not enough. Now it's booting up for real. |

My thoughts exactly .... though for 300Gh/s @ 220W it is less wattage per Gh compard to the others, but is the premium on the outlay recoupable in the short run to justify the purchase .... I don't think so.
The S4 and SP20 are actually more power efficient as well as cheaper and more reliable. |

How old are the people that keep accusing PBMining of being a scam? I assume you were publicly educated since you seem to have no understanding of innocence until proof of guilt.
It wasn't just a guess. From the minute PBMining announced their contracts, many people ran the numbers. It was virtually impossible for them to fulfill those contracts honestly. The only solution was if they were paying old customers with funds from new customers. That's the simple definition of a ponzi. And yes, a ponzi is a scam, no matter where you went to school. |

End of the year, have about 10K to invest in equipment. What would you do?
Buy some bitcoins. They're at a really good price right now. |

personally, i think that larger dies are the way to go. i think having tiny dies, thus high numbers of packages and larger boards etc.. adds more points of failure, and more board power losses.. so I'm in favour of larger dies in general. not necessarily huge ones any longer (as they require exotic cooling, which we've all seen isn't as reliable).
Large dies are very hard to power and cool. Just compare the companies and die sizes and you'll see a very strong corelation. Late CompaniesBFL: Large die HF: Large die CT: Large die KNC: Large die On time companiesAvalon: Small die Bitfury: Small die Asicminer: Small die Bitmain: Small die Spondoolies: Medium die It's pretty clear that the companies that tried big dies has the most delays. I do agree the Asicminer dies could grow quite a bit and still work well. |

Well I'm not near any of your "levels" my knowledge isn't going that far yet whether to how my house and wired and etc. I'm most likely going to run the machines at my house in one of the extra rooms I have, windows are provided, I'm going to put in some fans. Since the temperature of the room matters, I might split them half half and put the other half at the apartment I go to for school. My main question is that these PSU devices, do they save the overall electrical charge or something? What's their main usage?
A typical room can handle a single SP20 if you have 120V power (US), two SP20s if you have 240V power (EU). The PSUs can be regular computer power supplies, the kind that gets used in a regular tower computer case, although for the SP20 they need to be pretty high-powered. |

Well, at least payments, however low they may be currently, are still coming. For them trolls who keep hammering that PB is a scam, I don't know of any scammer who has ever been that dedicated to supporting his customers, obviously moving heaven and earth to recover from whatever catastrophe happened.
There was no catastrophe. There's nothing to recover from. He's a scammer that is worried that he'll go to jail. That's the only reason he's doing anything. |

Yup this is exactly how I see it. HF really produced very little things of value in the end.
What was the percentage of customers that actually got a working product? 5%? 10%? 2%?
Was there even a single customer that got all of what they purchased, including the MPP machines? |

We publicly apologize for the fact that we have an unresolved issue with WU values in combination of our board and the cgminer were caught faking a screenshot. Our developers are dealing with this issue photoshopping a new screenshot.
FTFY. |

Do you mean the correct PSU devices for this? i don't plan to get any until I'm sure of what I want. Any suggestions if I'm on the right track?
Getting the PSUs is pretty easy. Providing all that power to all those PSUs, and keeping the temperature in the room cool, that's the question. A regular household circuit isn't going to be enough for that many miners. |

says the guy with a "buy & hold" signature. ^^
hehe Of course, if he had asked, should I buy or mine, I'd have given a different answer. Miners are good for the network, but at this time they are rarely the most profitable way to earn bitcoins. Remember, always calculate your profitability in bitcoins. |
