Hi folks, I'd like to introduce myself, I work with Aegir at Advania and can help with any queries you have on hosting your mining equipment in our Thor Data Centre facility. You can contact me directly on brian.rae@thordc.com or through PM on this site (or Brian_R at WHT). I'm online most of the time day and evening, so should be able to help pretty quickly in most cases. Glad to see Advania active here. How is the bitcoin payment integration going? I am sure that you know that payments are non-reversible and that you pay 0 fees for any payments that you receive and you also don't need to deal directly with bitcoins since you are receiving $ directly to your bank account. Please have a look at BitPay.com or BIPS.me. |

I hope my math is wrong but 200k S3s would mean 100PH/s which is simply absurd. It would require 10-20M$ AT LEAST just to build them so your number is WAY out of line... Just like AM who was dreaming of selling 60PH worth of chips in 1-2 months.
20,000 units maybe, so ~10 PH. The original quote states 200k units. That's two hundred thousand. |

preorder is always a bad deal
sp30 will earn much less btc than in hand hardware you can buy now
dont forget about hosting fees due to ridiculous cooling design
unit should be 4u and have 8x120 fans
also that promised specs can be not achieved,
remember terraminer or bfl?
What in hand hardware? So because 2 companies which started as a scam failed/scammed you think that SP30 won't reach the specs? I know that you haven't really thought about it, but please do an effort to think a bit more. |

Wow, I forgot how bad the user response was after that. Now hardly anyone even remembers it... There are also security problems: Images can be used to execute cookie stuffing and cross-site request forgery attacks; they use a lot of bandwidth; and they prevent bitcointalk.org's HTTPS from appearing totally "kosher" to browsers. These issues could be solved by hosting all images at bitcointalk.org, but this isn't worth the trouble.
I guess I decided that it was worth the trouble after all.  /joke on So you can do your own stuffing  /joke off |

I tell you what, wire up 12 of them for me ONLY with DELL $20 PSUs and send me a picture
of that fucking spaghetti sandwich wiring hazard.
I have no doubt that jimmothy will send us a picture with the wiring because he loves the spaghetti monsters |

I edited my post and added link to their news
Go look yourself.
I read the news, but it's simply stupid. The demand for Neptunes CAN'T be bigger than the wafers because they had a lot of refunds and people ordering now are going into Batch 3 so Batch 1 and 2 shouldn't be a problem since they knew for more than 6 months how many units they need and if we add the tons of refunds something doesn't add up. But it's KnC. Expect the worst! |

Good luck with those 2 weeks and deploying those miners in a DC. |

Just wondering if Batch 1 or 2 have started receiving their Neptunes yet.
NoNo more Neptunes shipping ! From KNC last news (link) : Each and every production-ready Neptune processor we’ve been able to produce has been shipped out to customers
[...]
the demand for Neptunes has been bigger than the successful yield of 20nm wafers has been able to satisfy. That means they don't have any 20nm chips ! That means no more Neptunes will ship ! It's going to take weeks before receiving new 20nm chips ! This can't be true. They had A LOT of refunds so they must have a lot of Neptunes available. |

Bitcoinwisdom that you linked yourself is still estimating +15%. Don't be fooled by day to day variance.
true right now it is a lot of guess work….. using times between blocks days in advance is meh. besides a builder like bitmaintech could have 200,000 s-3's built and ready to ship right now. So while it looks like diff jumps may be low it is more because they hold back the gear. I hope my math is wrong but 200k S3s would mean 100PH/s which is simply absurd. It would require 10-20M$ AT LEAST just to build them so your number is WAY out of line... Just like AM who was dreaming of selling 60PH worth of chips in 1-2 months. I still expect the difficulty to go up this adjustment, but bet it will be a smallish increase of ~5%.
5% seems a bit too low. My guess is around 10%. Exciting times. |

Wish I had never heard of bitcoin securities. Would be much, much, much wealthier with just my original bitcoins.
I've lost more on Bitcoin mining ASICs than I have lost on Bitcoin securities, but I feel your pain. What gear did you buy and when? |

HashFail also promised MPP so nothing new... Edit: Upgrading 1.4.8 to 1.5.2 ... done. Yes, sorry, I forgot to upload image earlier, now all works. This image has option to configure top and bottom boards starting voltage separately. That is not relevant for miners you have because you all have single corner ASICs inside, it is ONLY for miners that have TOP and BOTTOM boards from different batches - I have several SP10s like that in my lab so I added it. (also if you will send your miner to us for repair in case you drop it or something and we replace a board you might need this functionality) This image also has fix for a loop stability issue seen on some miners from version 1.4.XX something with DCR type 1. It also shows top and bottom board temperatures in the main screen. Regards` DC2DC DCR inductor flag loop 0 (0xD0) = 0x0

here is my recent e-mail discussion with bitmine Kerim (Bitmine AG)
Jul 01 10:47
I will ask what this money is for. But I guess it is to cover future costs of the facility in Iceland.
Best regards,
Bitmine AG, Bitmine.ch
WHAT??? Them too? Fuckers! |

This is KfC own t's and c's; therefore It would be up to KfC to vet every customer and prove that they have done ample due diligence to assure they haven't sold to any residential customer. Methinks they would fall flat on their face in this matter. Why? By agreeing to the T&C you have stated to them that you are a business customer. Why should they have to investigate whether you were lying? by placing such restrictions and then offering a free web portal for sales. Any lawyer would find ease in tearing apart KfC arguments. It is quite simple to assure business-to-business trade, by requiring company number or VAT registration number. None of this was carried out and it was the case that KfC simply put up a web shop for all and sundry to make purchase of their equipment. Sorry to burst your bubble mate, but VAT number was required. It wasn't required since I and many others were able to order without a VAT number. If it was required then we couldn't order. |

In time for deployment means early enough that finished miners will be ready when the tanks are ready.
If you want to test something with the chips, you obviously don´t buy a bulk amount of chips and have them laying around, you buy some chip samples.
You don't really think "testing" means testing? I am not quite sure what you are implying. You get some some chips and build your first blade designs. If it works out fine you go for the bulk order at bulk prices, nobody buys a Ton of chips just to have them lying around and loosing value. (Well anyone but hashlast ) I think that he is implying that "testing" will be "hashing for ourselves". |

Ignoring the fact that repeating the same thing is simply stupid I will just tell you both that the S3 is out of stock so you can't order it right now.
Uh, no it's not. Corrected, but still waiting for a live power measurement. |

^this
Those S3s sure look good. 6TH (12 x S3) July 15 for 9 BTC or ~ 9BTC for 6TH (SP30) in September (hopefully)
9btc buys you 6TH in 2 weeks or ~3 months. It's a pretty simple choice if you ask me.
Ignoring the fact that repeating the same thing is simply stupid I will just tell you both that the S3 is out of stock so you can't order it right now. Edit: Mistake. S3 isn't out of stock. |
