Looking to donate another S7 to a KANO member in exchange for receiving Bitmain coupons.
Coupons WILL be used towards S9 purchase and WILL be mining on KANO POOL ONLY!!
S7 going to KANO member must also keep the S7 on the pool as it is now.
Coupons needed are $300 and up and I would need x2 in order to release the miner. Also willing to pay a small fee for coupons instead if nobody wants to keep this type of "exchange program" going.

For anyone looking to order from Bitmain. Especially us Kano guys!
I just placed an order now.
They are now accepting BCH, BTC and LTC as payment.
First I have seen this.
Yeah, I ordered one with BCH and one with BTC. Will be buying more when the rest of my BCH is available. Luckily I stocked up when everything was down so it's like an extra coupon  |

Are the hash cards interchangeable on the S9 miners with all of the different machine combinations?
Have 2 machines with some issues with hash boards ...one is a 12.3 ?? and one is a 13 or a 13.5 I think...
I assume the hash boards will interchange but will only hash at the rate they were designed for right?
I'd like to send a couple of boards off for repair. Anyone know of a good place in the U.S. that will repair them?
Any idea on what they charge for repairs? If it is to much for repair I'd be buying another new one..
Thoughts?
PS. I did just purchase a brand new s9 Antminer 13.5 on Bitmain for mid-april delivery for $755 (using BTH) which includes delivery. I did use a coupon for $420 off though.. great deal if you can find the coupons!
No, they are not. I have a stack of S7 boards with the heat sinks off and some with chips that fell off. If they are of any value whatsoever, let me know. I highly, highly doubt it though. |

Just sold 3 Avalon A6 machines. It was nice having these little guys, but it's time to start maximizing my efficiency. Until the 841's come down in price, I have to stick with Shitmain and their fabulous coupons. Hopefully whoever purchased these will keep them on Kano.

DONATED. You should have it now.
Thanks to both of you for " Paying it Forward" FYI thats the reason you get the coupon.. :-)
No need to get screenshots of the purchase, we belive you.. just get the serial number, MAC address, Firmware revision, file build date. and a DNA sample and we should all be good.. No need to go to the effort of the screen shot :-)
Hey, I said there would be a screenshot so there will be a screenshot. It was just for transparency reasons so everyone else can see how great this pool is. So.....here are the coupons I received and the S7 is getting packed up to go out in about an hour. Thanks everyone!!! As soon as my BCH arrives, I will be completing the purchase.  |

That was actually me. I goofed up, but I've received a couple messages saying Bitmain will give it back if I explain to them and I did so we will see.
If you have another coupon though.....I'm looking for 2 over $400 towards S9's FOR KANO POOL ONLY!! I will also donate an S7 running on Kano to another willing member pledging to keep it on Kano. All I need are 2 more coupons @ $400+ each. Just 2 more!!
Oh you're the other one i gave a 420 to. Just as back as pecker hahah. Sorry pecker. I hope they get that coupon back to you. I don't have any more of the 420s to give out. If they dont get it back to you let me know and i'll hook you up with a 220. Wait, is someone giving away S7s for coupons? If so, let me know!  I'll clarify. I have an S7 that is hashing on two boards (2.8 TH/s). I would like 2x $400 coupons to go towards S9's to be pointed at Kano Pool. If I can acquire 2 more coupons, I will donate the S7 to a member mining on Kano Pool if they promise to keep it here. I've had some interest on trading for the S7, so if someone has 2 coupons they can get me, I will just donate the S7 to that person. I'm not looking for $200 coupons at the moment. Thanks all Ahh I had to re-write this message becuase I do not know how to read.. Ok, so will a 350 USD work? Since you will donate the s7 to minerSRQ? and miner SRQ was asking me for the same coupon for the same reason? I can do that, if the 350 USD works unless you get another better one? Let me know. I think I can roll with that. I'll PM you my Bitmain email and as soon as I get both of them, I will upload a screenshot as proof and I will get the shipping information from minerSRQ and an S7 will be on it's way. |

Interesting... I have an S7 with only ONE working board (575MHz). Seems like a perfect match, but I only have a $400 and $220 as the highest coupons in my account. Thoughts? Get someone to donate the second one so you can have my S7 |

Holy crap where did my math go wrong on the power, you're 100% correct 800 * 1370 = 1,096,000
Thank you for the info. Once i get passed the business plan ill reach out.
Also chuckled when you said "a warehouse with a roof big enough". Basic solar math, presuming you want to run on 13.5TH S9, with a real world consumption of around 1450 watts: * (1) typical panel, lets say a 130W one, will produce about 4 hours of power a day at 80% of its rated rate (since the rated rate is optimal during noon soon in the tropics): 130*0.8*4=416 watts per panel per day * Each miner therefore requires about 3.5 panels * 1 megawatts of power = (690) 1450W miners = 2,145 panels at about a square meter each, so call it 21,450 square feet of roof space over a data center that doesn't need to be over 2000 square feet in size, likely larger. But wait... Nobody is going it invest that type of money to run miners for 4 hours a day, so lets add batteries and enough panels to run for a full 24 hours: 80% efficient charging batteries = 2145*6/0.8 = 16,100 panels. So about $2M in panels. Batteries to carry say, 3 days of butts, will match that cost. So now your at $4M. Oh, but wait again... we only have enough panels to keep ourself running for 24 hours and now, after a butty day or three, we need to run AND charge those batteries. Better double the array size (now $4M and 32,200 panels). Plus battery chargers, inverters, etc. Add at least another $2M. So, we have $6M in solar infrustructure to run 690 miner at something like $1300 each current pricing (sorry, Bitmain doesn't have 13.5's listed right now, which this math is based on); eg. ~$900K in miners. At $0.10/kwh, and 1MW of required current, each hour cost $100. So in about 7 years you will break even. Except that your batteries will likely have been replaced once in that timeframe and likely be coming due for a second round, at $2M a pop. Good news, electronics are likely good for 10-15 years. Oh, and since we now have 32,200 panels in our little setup, your going to need about 320,000 square feet of south facing roof. That just a bit over 7 acres ON THE SOUTH SIDE. So a 640,000 square foot warehouse of which you will be using around 2000 square feet. Or perhaps you could find a 6000 square foot building and provide about 1% of your power for a mere $60,000 - but why bother. Granted, you could grid tie, and eliminate the batteries and half the electronics, but then you need to deal with paying retail power rates and likely being credited wholesale power rates. Not aware of many NEW grid tied solar contracts that allow for reversible meters like they use too. They electric companies have wised up and paid off the right politicians to protect their turf.  |

EDIT: I'm embarrassed.....but I feel it's necessary to bow my head in front of the tribunal and report my mistake. I prematurely completed the checkout to see how easy it was to apply the coupon to finish the order for an S9. Well, I'm still waiting on the rest of my BCH to be deposited from Coinbase and the goddamn order expired. It only gives you 1 hour to complete payment. When it does this, it DOES NOT GIVE YOU BACK THE COUPON!!  I reached out to BITMAIN (as if that is really going to do anything) and explained, so we'll see if they will have any pity, but doubtful. They will give you the coupon back to use once you explain what happened, at least they did for me... but you will just have to reorder once they put it back into your account... Not real user friendly when they make you have BCH (which I dont keep) or a wire transfer (which is also a hassle) ... I wonder why they dont take BTC? Best of luck! Mine on with Kano!! Oh man, that makes me feel better!! I hope that's the case. I plan on ordering more than that, but trying to do them individually with coupons because the price is so smokin' hot. Still stands that if I can get the larger coupons from any members not using them and want more hash power to go towards this pool, I will donate the lower performing miners to members willing to adopt them and point them back at the pool. Really looking to get he $400 and above coupons (of course, right?) I figure this way everyone is somewhat benefiting. |

Just wanted to give a shout out to clgrissom3 for donating a $420 coupon going towards another S9 to Kano Pool. Thanks a lot!! I also just decommissioned an S7 that was only running on 2 boards. That being said...... I have an S7 that was hashing on 2 boards for a while at 2.8 TH/s if someone smaller is looking for a CHEAP addition. If there are anymore coupons of $420 that are not going to be used by someone willing to donate, I will donate this S7 to someone willing to keep it on Kano if I can get at least 2 more coupons to go towards S9's

Pecker can have the one you were going to give me. I can find them off Ebay for not much more and I can swing the funds either way, so if this helps another member getting another I'm good with that.
I appreciate the offer greatly.
[/quote]
Thanks..that is awfully nice of you!! I did not mean to try to take one away from someone, if there was another available I could use it...
You guys ROCK!
Mine on Kano!
[/quote]
You didn't, just passing it down the line. I have other means, so I'm not that worried.
These are the kinds of things that make me laugh in the face of those who have been groomed their whole lives to believe government intrusion of the free market by means of forceful distribution of wealth is necessary.
We seem to be doing just fine on our own.

holy crap. ok i guess i'm giving away two. i thought i offered it to you first. PM me.
If you have another one I'd love to have one as well... I have a spot for 1 more machine, but could really use the bigger discount as money is tight.. I as well will always mine on Kano !!

$1500 per S9 /w pSU?
yes $1500 cash with psu online already the guy has two more. i might just take them also only problem is he wants cash ill decide tomorow If you want to buy one from bitmain ill GIVE you a 420 dollar coupon. More hash for the pool I've heard the coupons can be a little difficult. Is this true, what is all involved with redeeming them? i used one last week. miner shows up on monday. [/quote] So you just enter a code and it takes it off the cart total and you're done? How much were the taxes and shipping? |
