Just remember h6  firmware for nov 11 gave me 49th and 14th

since it worked with the replacement psu I have to use it.

make sure you can go back  to the older firmware.  although  the 49th highspeed may be quiet enoguh.

I did not check efficiency since the power cost is ½ the coins mined.

so 24.5th for free vs 0 th was worth doing and buying the new psu. for 275.

24.5th earns 24.5 x .126 or 3.087 a day  90 days the psu pays off 277.83.

right now i am monitoring the solo.ckpool super rental trying to squeeze every dime i can for the ten of us in it.

so i did not get to play with the s9 i have at home.

i did realize that holes could be covered and various patterns of air flow studied.

i e

o.            o.           o

              O

o.            o.           o

do all  holes above on the two sides. simply cover a hole with duct tape to tune best heat results.

the fans could be

<.   >.  maybe best

>.    >

<.    <

>.   <.     i don’t fans will work well this way.

it is a project i will get to very soon.

We can probably get the majority of the hash on the Asicboost boost algo at 0.0191

i will check this as it is a good price


edit

 good call price is better but hash rate available is about 10-16ph

i will mine there at 4ph eu and 4ph usa

eu order is

39963ee8

usa order is

5313094d


hey guys ClaytonBigsby saved us some money 💵 give him some merits.
15246  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Special thread concerning bitmains coupons refunds discounts. on: January 01, 2020, 08:34:24 PM
@ Alec  new miners lets say s19  My guess is an april preorder  with a june delivery.

on topic.

my t17+  64th  has shipped it is due on Jan 2

so it shipped about  dec 30   vs dec 11-20

my t17 42 th shipped dec 18th

vs dec 20-31

That kind of evens out for late or early shipping.  Thus I won't ask for any adjustments or credits due to late shipping.

However  my t17+  was  1354.95 + a 375 coupon  or 1729.95

bitmain values    order at 1079.95

that is

1729.95
1079.95

650  credit.   I think I am double counting the coupon of 375 in my favor.

so 650-375 = 275 credit   due  as a credit.

Once the gear arrives  I will ask for a 275 credit.

I will then be squared away on everything  other then the s17 pro.   I have yet to figure out if I am owed more on that one.  Since I don't know the final price.

All in all,  I got a 1185 credit  and a 114 refund   so far.

And I would say all fall gear works.

and I would say  while it was more work then I want to do it was worth it.

By January we will have 1480th mining.



It is jan 1 gear is due on Jan 2

I sent this in now.

Hi I ordered a t17+ 64th unit on 10-26-2019 . It was due to ship dec 11-dec 20. I paid you via paypal the amount I paid was $1354.95 after coupons .

You adjusted price to $1079.95 > I will attach both documents to this request. I believe I should get a credit for 1354.95 - 1079.95 = $275.00 usd. Since I used paypal to pay this I am going to request a refund of $275.00 to my paypal charge.

I will await your reply. I know it is 3:30 am in China on Thursday the 2nd in china as it is 3:30 pm on weds the 1st here in USA. I will not contact paypal for refund as I will wait for your response before I do anything.

Best regards,

So with luck

1) gear comes on Jan 2
2) it works
3) they refund me $275 to my paypal account
4) I would then simply need to get my last order a s17pro  due to ship jan 11-20

If all 4 things happen I will not order until  Feb or maybe March  since the threat of new super gear in 5nm is arising.

Looks like the fools struck out!!

We must have some funds left? The rentals have been running slower than 25 PH for 2.5 days. Philip, what's the status?
Sometimes 10 , and sometimes 25.
We paid more than we thought because of nicehash algorithm.
Its just not reliable system. You put money but you can never know how its will act
Nicehash sucks. I also hope we still have some funds

we are load with funds more then .5 btc left

morons are jack prices up way too high

here are the 5 orders

eu
8d731a8a    0.072 in btc
4ab6ad8d    0.072 in btc


usa

48ee7476   0.072 in btc    this is hashing a bit I have it at 0.0231
066c2a47   0.072 in btc
b5cb77e1   0.072 in btc


and  .27 in nice hash wallet

so  we spent .7  and have .55 left



https://i.imgur.com/GJhP4As.png    shows wallet


https://i.imgur.com/jUeOrmr.png   shows four orders   all with 0.072 left





https://i.imgur.com/xM29fXt.png   shows the one order I was spending premium  of 0.0231   you can see a-hole above  wasting their money  as 0.0284 ir a 50% premium

this issue of mentally ill morons over paying insanely to rent is why I did not run clubs  that much.

we still have .55 left    we can still get lucky

feel free to make guesses and or predictions.

we will move to about 13.6 diff. on Jan 1.

my guess for dec 31 2020 is under 25 maybe under 20.

lot of factors for 2020.

new gear coming?

5nm due in april may or june.

1/2 ing in april or may

price.

A little over a day and we should have the ETH fork which should at least temporarily improve profits, according to,
https://etherscan.io/block/countdown/9200000

There is a day and 4 hours to go. With the block time going from 17 seconds to 13 seconds we should instantely get 25% more in profits, so if you got low power rates it should help but for most retail miners in most of the USA it won't make much difference, pretty sure most have their rigs powered off already.

I think unless we get a huge price surge of ETH going into the BTC halving or some ProgPOW algo switch then most likely will sell the rest of my GPUs.

i listed two rigs in the marketplace today.
15253  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: My S9 Heater version on: January 01, 2020, 12:50:32 AM
I think 💭 a few holes on each side may improve even more.

maybe a little smaller.  lower 1/3 from intake

higher 1/3 from output.

15256  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: For how long can we actually mine ? on: December 31, 2019, 05:42:36 AM
@ searing bitmain has shown they can sell so much gear super cheap and kill off a coins price.

It is a routine procedure that they do.

Its why I am being cautious right now.

Long term mining for btc does not work past the 2028/2029 1/2 ing

due to transaction limatation.

why use btc to move value and pay big money in fees.

the ltc / doge networks are very cheap and safe to move value around.

they also have tons of asic gear to back the two coins.

look at the product rationally  in terms of moving value what makes btc better then ltc or doge?

frankly if you are moving 1000 usd  or less worth of coin ltc and or doge are both better  btc.

doge will move 1, 000,000 coins in under 20 minutes and cost is really cheap.

I think 1000 usd is around 1,000,000 doge maybe more like 1,400,000 doge

I am doxxed for no reason that I know of on some bs website.  bad buyers dot whatever.

someone made a false claim about a purchase and said I am a bad buyer.

I suspect one of the scammers I caught on this site did it. So good luck 🍀 with the doxxing.
15258  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: For how long can we actually mine ? on: December 31, 2019, 01:42:12 AM
The issue is scaling fees and transactions.

2025  block of 3.125

2029  block of 1.5625

If transaction never rise much past  450,000 a day https://www.blockchain.com/charts/n-transactions

which happened on  May 1 2019

what  will fees be.

if  450,000 x 0.0000100 =  4.5 btc    this will not work well in 2025   since that 4.5 is spread over 450 blocks or fees of   0.01btc per block
if  450,000 x 0.0001000 = 45.0 btc    this will not work well in 2025  since  that 45 is spread over 450 blocks or fees of   0.10btc per block
if  450,000 x 0.0010000 = 450 btc     this gets closer   since that  450 in fees is spread over 450 blocks  or fees of          1.00 btc a block

at 20,000 a coin     a 2025 block  is  3.125 + 1 = 4.125 coins or 82,500     and a standard transaction will be about 2 dollars.

I don't think 2 dollar transactions will sit well  as the low end transaction number.

we need to be able to have  2,000,000 transactions  daily for the 2029 block size of 1.5625 coins.

People will leave btc and move to ltc   as fees are cheap and network is secure.

Well  I don't worry for 2020  , but for 2025 or 2024  then 2028 or 2029  I see problems.

I tell you what bitmain  and canaan are worried for 2020  since they are rushing 5nm out so they see a blood bath coming at the ½ ing.

Why would you improve the s17 pro  which simply kills everything there is?

You fear the ½ ing  and want to keep far and above everyone in the game.

The ½ ing and the 5nm announcement   has influenced me to not buy any gear until February or March.

still stuck with a high share of only

  1,616,494,087,505.111

12,948,593,420,946.380   this is the number to beat

all five orders are going well

screen shot of five orders

https://i.imgur.com/2FmchcF.png



we still have 0.5 btc left in the trezor

I will transfer to nicehash  when the five orders run down.

Sometime on the 31st  / tues.

We should be mining  until  sometime on Weds  the 1st.

unless of course  prices shoot up  I won't pay crazy high coin  for rentals.
