Miners, Just wanted to give a little preview on our progress in expanding our data-center capacity. Tomorrow everything will be completed and tested. We really have come a long way in 3 years. Thank you for all the community support. Racks:Much More Power:Panels:High Density Power Rails: ( We have 17.4Kw rails being installed but forget the picture, these are 12.5Kw): HVAC:Hope you enjoy. Please post any questions below, we are happy to help out fellow miners.

That seems like a good setup and you are close to us as well. If you want to get into mining, this is a decent start. Unless that ventilation system has cooling, you might find it tough to run on air cooling during the summer (as you know).

Liability is your single biggest cost if something goes wrong. One electrical fire and the whole building can burn down and unless you're insured for the risk that you are committing then you can possibly go into debt over $1 million trying to chase a couple thousand.
I agree, make sure you get some liability insurance, it isn't that expensive but will let you sleep better at night. -D

We at Bitcoin ASIC Hosting, a subsidiary of Bitfund LLC (WA) have secured a long-term lease on a 5,000 square foot new construction steel-framed warehouse in one of the cheapest electricity district in the United States.
We have been miners for 4 years and been hosting providers for 3 years. Our team has a proven track record engineering and maintaining data-centers built for high-density specific applications.
We are looking to raise capital at this time to take advantage of some pre-negotiated high-value deals on major infrastructure equipment like large HVAC and Commercial Power Distribution gear. This will lower the overall cost of the total build and provide more value for all the investors.
Secured and Completed To-date: -1.5 MW of power approved from the local utility district -PUD has dropped the transformer and all relevant fees are paid. -Fiber Internet from a local provider -Completely engineered power distribution and cooling methods -Insurance on the facility, covering computing/mining hardware -Long term lease with a long-term option on the space (competitive rate) -Purchase of the first phase of high density power rails (what the miner plugs into) -Purchase of the first large PDU cabinets (power distribution) -Engineering designed to accommodate crypto-currency mining operations and Openstack private cloud computing
Building Specifications: -Concrete flooring -Extremely high ceilings -Steel Frame -New Construction (Class-A industrial equivalent) -Customized layout -Great landlord
This facility is an opportunity for large-scale miners or other high-density computing application users to invest in a data-center in the most profitable and secure land available.
Investments can range from direct investment into the company on a loan or equity basis. The most secure debt offering on the property is a short-term loan with interest with no equity, to be paid back by Bitfund LLC. Equity financing is also available for partial ownership of the property and residual income from the facility.
Please PM me direct with your contact details and questions. All inquires will be responded to offline and confidentially. Thank you for your time.

strangely enough, the pot growers, coupled with the bitcoin miners all trying to move into the area are the reason we have the power upgrade moratorium.
it *sounds* like they had a lot of looky-lews that were requesting power studies for buildings with insufficient power to them. after finding out the cost to get a MW of 480 is six figures and change, most of them backed out... thus the power company is tired of wasting its time doing power studies for people that have no realistic idea of how much the price tag was going to be. i know one pot grower that is looking for 144,000 watts of 120v. thats 1200 amps for lighting alone... he is gonna need another 4-800 for ACs, water pumps, etc.
This is exactly what has happened. The PUD I am working with change the 2015 pricing to basically double the build-out cost for high-voltage commercial power projects because of all the tire-kickers. We were lucky enough to secure our power in 2014 when it was cheaper. Currently we have room for some investment capital to build-out out multi-MW facility. We have a 5,000 sqft. building with a very long-term lease. If anyone is serious and want a serious plan and financials, please contact me directly via PM. -D Dalkore that's interesting but you're in Seattle, power rates there are closer to 6c that's more expensive than certain areas in Colorado with a terrible wetbulb. 100 per kw is but whats your cost per KW, 40 to 50? We host in Eastern Washington with our office in Seattle. Our rate are .023 which are amazing.
