+2.76 to +3.00 please

Just as I speculated, about long enough for manufacturer to ROI the machine.  Nice business model, they basically get paid twice for each machine.

Thank you for stating it publicly, now if only you'd price them to reflect their used nature!

I only get the comms error on the webisect version of 5.2.0 you posted for me.  I just tried the release of 5.2.0 using --scan antminer@0001 in the command line again and it results in the U3 hashing <10GH/s and dropping to 0 over the course of a minute or two.  So whatever was changed in the websect version also "fixed" it so my U3 hashes consistantly (although it appears to ignore the freq and volt settings and hashes at stock speed ~40GH/s).  Unfortuntelly like I have posted, it spits those comm errors all day and unless I reset it twice a day (unplug/replug USB) then the U3 hash drops from the pool it's pointed at despite appearing to continue to hash along just fine in bfgminer.


I wish I knew enough how to dig in a figure out what the error is caused by, but all I could do was google and nothing useful came up.

Ow.  The stupidity hurts.  Make it stop.

You mean once they've ROI'd their new gear (which is much easier/cheaper to do when you're the manufacturer) they will announce and sell that from their data center, too.

It's criminal what they all doing with S5 "batch 7"; shame on anyone for buying from them and encouraging this behavior.  It's not the price that irks me, but that they insist on calling them "new" and then say some will be dusty and scratched.  Well no shit, used gear is dusty and scratched, call it used and sell it used for whatever price you want (your prerogative), but calling it new is foolish.

I think we're going to see steady <5% growth for a while to come still.

Followed up by another monster share: 178,272,248,454

Congrats to the solver!

Bullshit, it totally matters.

There's a huge difference between an established member of this forum asking for a HUGE collateral based loan vs. someone who just created an account today.  Which do you think would be a more trustworthy person to lend to?

But this OP can't be serious (despite his large text and bold font!) to think someone would lend him what amounts to a year's salary in some places.

Looks like the 2.4PH mining to an address is back on the pool.  Anyone know if this is a large renter or a small farm?

But if you're really lucky, it can pay off.  Congrats to the solver!

It's not shady, it's blatantly deceptive and a lie.

Call them used and price them appropriately.  I hope no one buys a single one, you'd be an idiot to pay full price for a used item.

No, one was Bitclub and they've pointed PH+ here before.  I forget the other PH+ player, but I don't thing they were rented, either.

Is anyone really going to be dumb enough to buy used miners at new prices right before new hardware is supposed to come out?  I hope they don't sell a single unit of "batch 7".

Kano is doing his own S5 work, he is not doing the NH 4BTC bounty one linked.

You realize the irony here, right?  That your very post is also about Greece?

Where are the facts in your post that you request of others?

You mention propaganda, and then the next immediate statement is pro-Greek propaganda.

Bad signature campaign troll post is bad.

My biggest mistake was not getting into bitcoin in 2012 when I first heard about it.  I didn't start looking into it until the very end of 2014, better late than never I guess.

Compuserve in the 1980s; it was social media before the term existed.

There is certainly no shortage of stupid people in this world.

To paraphrase George Carlin: think of your average person; by definition, half the people are stupider than that.

You would have 8x the chance of my one S3+ solo mining here for the summer. 

Oh my god, a 59% block.  Surely the pool must be broken!


I wonder about this as well.  They would receive a majority of each block reward at this pool, so the payouts would be larger (but less frequent) than if they were at one of the big Chinese pools.  I would love to hear from them and know what their strategy is for where to point >1PH.  With that much gear running I'm sure they have to maintain a pretty decent amount of btc incoming.

Why don't you use your own service to advertise your service?  If you can get top trends on twitter then use that to advertise and you don't even need to post here.

You'd be hard pressed to find anywhere online that will release IP addresses of its users.

It's an online forum, you don't have any rights.


As was already pointed out to you above, knowing IPs does not tell you what you want to know, nor will any forum ever provide you with that information.
