In no way would I consider hashflare to be in same league as hashnest.    Just look at site they talk about "HashCoins Datacenter" - https://hashflare.io/data-center/ .  Hashcoin gear was a scam that never came out with anything Zeus or after on thier gear.  Huge scam hardware company.  I would not invest a dime in them with saying that is gear they use.

Hashnest is legit and linked to Bitmain.  If your going cloud mining go there you at least get a legit cloud mining site.  So possible ROI and not throwing money at scam.

This is a perfect example of why you should wait and not jump into signature campaign's.  Look at other posts on 21st just a LOT of one sentence posts that don't  add much - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=717035;sa=showPosts;start=20 .  With a signature you are held to a higher standard on post's being constructive.

I strongly suggest waiting till full member as you will not lose that much money waiting.  And really get a lot of time to learn the forums, learn about BTC, and possibly be able to help others at that point.   Those that rush into it sadly a lot end up like this and goal is making as most posts as possible.   It leads to a ban in many cases.

So signature campaign's are good if used right.  Just make sure to use them right not a post like above.

This has been mentioned SO many times it does not really need to be mentioned again.  Can you go futher and say how much you are making off faucets and how much time you put into it?

I am willing to be it is dust (small amounts) and getting paid cents per hour is what I say.  It is sad but true they just pay very very little.  You can use this time to do so much better things that will help you long term.   I think fewer and fewer people use faucets as they realize extremely low payments.

There are a few different 220/240 volt receptacle's so there is not just 1 standard.  A lot of people use a PDU going to the 220/240 then split it up from PDU to miners.

I think what everyone is asking is your drawling looks a lot like just the standard US 110/120 volt outlet.   Are you sure your outlet is the 205 volt or more needed for psu?  That is what people have been asking about.

Looking  nice I really like gable fan's personally they do a good job exhausting hot air.  And depending how much hot air you have you can get some pretty nice high CFM gable fan's.

Also looked like you attached the thermostat to the side.  Comes in nice for it to monitor the air heat and only turn on when needed.  My weather varies on temp in Midwest so I love that feature.

Yep it came as always .  Thanks Marco and Bitcoin_Boy$,! Appreciate your time getting these out.

Still  the best campaign around! I'm just about to hit a year and 3 months I believe in this campaign... wow how time fly's

In the Midwest here so we get a lot of different temperatures.  So far I have had good luck to seems to be able to handle the summer heat which is good.  In my mining area I use air from outside push it through miners with big CFM fan's and exhaust the hot air. 

The S9 has done very good with the varying weather.   This week I could have high of low 90's F which is hotter then I like to the lows in the 60's F.   So it is handling  a variety of weather good.

Not always true it could be in some cases but a lot of cases just holding BTC is not a bad idea.  In a matter of not so long of time we went from 350's to high 600's so a HUGE jump if you had in altcoins you missed that.  Which would stink missing such a massive jump.

A lot are pump/dump and just not worth it.  Only one I really keep an eye on is Ether as i think it has possibilities, but I still keep by far majority in BTC.  So I guess what I'm trying to say is use moderation.  Invest some in a good altcoin but keep some i BTC forum specifically right now with having so close.   Even just holding a lot of campaigns you can reach 1 BTC a year.

This is false you will not make a 1 BTC per month through sigature campaigns.  There are some like mod's or some user a campaign will pay more for.  Here is kinda the page to look for payment - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0 .  So the best are mid .30 or so.   So that leaves a LOT to earn from trading.

I do not think you can take mid .30's each month and consistently change it to 1 BTC a month.   Yes you can make a nice amout of extra money  but day's of 1 BTC per month from sig campaigns are just long gone.   BTC value has went up to a point where they just can't pay that 1 BTC per month per user.




Not sure how it is in Vietnam just as I am not familiar with local working laws.  But in  US at 16 you can work I believe without restrictions,  at 14-16 I believe they are way's to work but laws to follow as a minor.  But a lot of 16 year old's can get job's and buy coins with it.   Granted not all jobs some require higher ages like those selling alcohol or firearms for example.  But in US a lot of jobs are open to 16 at least legally.

It is in around 15 and a half day's or so - http://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/ .  So yes it it fast approaching.   So most miners will keep everything online and get all they can before  having.

But there are always a few who try to sell and instant ROI.  I  just really suggest caution right now on Ebay as I mentioned above with selling a unit with so much value.

Hashnest is only cloud mining site I send people to currently.  They have the trust being tied in with Bitmain.  Sadly there are just a TON of scams out there so I personally would not go by price or likely you will see your BTC ride off into the sunset with someone else.  Hashnest does not guarentee a ROI but it at least gives you a fair chance with being legit cloud mining site.

Other option is purchasing gear and having it hosted somewhere.  This is also a valid option to know you are actually getting a real miner, not scam.  But again you would need to pick a host that is well known and legit.

I think this is hard to say as we don't know if you are allowed to modify location. If you are allowed to modify location we don't know what your looking at on type of cooling.  I would guess high RPM fan's and good exhust fan's. Or is it a location evaporation cooling is possible (for me personally my climate does not work with evaporation cooling).  So there is a lot of unknown's as we don't know what equipment is being used for cooling. But with 50 miners there will be a lot of heat.   I think you are going to have a hard time finding warehouse that allows modification and has the electricity needed and rents.  This is why hosting companies are so popular.

Have you started to look at warehouses that have  the electricity needed for 50 S7's?  I just don't think you will find a ton of them for cheap.  But start with that and then find the one that allows modification out of them. I think it will be not so easy to find locations that have these two things unless your purchasing it but I could be wrong.  Rentals I just don't see many being in this area, and if they are I would guess a very long term lease.

I personally would be afraid to ebay something as new as a S9.   If you got a bad buyer 30-45 day's if they keep it and mine would really add up.   Even  no returns does not stop it if "bad buyer"/Scammer.  I'm sure some will do it but myself I would not risk it there so early with the S9's current  value.

So you really would have to sell on forums for BTC in my mind since BTC cannot be reversed. But I don't see getting a big ROI with this as forum buyers are normally pretty current and  keep up with the website price.  But it is true you might get lucky since there is not a S9 batch currently up.

And as I expected my post did not stop people from trying to apply - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=877765.msg15323834#msg15323834

The front page is still current if you look at it there are no spots. As many others I know not the news you want but it is still current.  So no spot's to apply for.

On a different note has anyone heard from Macro just wondering with last log in if anyone has talked to him recent?

That is a good amount of electricity with 50 S7's so I would start by looking if they can even handle that amount  of electricity. I would imagine a good amount can't handle it and those who can I am guessing you will have to do some wiring.

So I would look for being able to modify location as I have a feeling you will need to do wiring, and cooling.  And not all are going to let you modify the location.   And really best start  is finding one with the amount of electricity as you need as I really think that will really lower amount of possible locations.

Basically to mine bitcoins you need an asic.   No matter how good your laptop/desktop is  they just cannot compete when mining BTC.  There are alt-coins which are kinda a different story.

Basically the CPU mining is dead so you will need a decent GPU.   You can look up Ether but it is only coin really worth mining on GPU (my opinion there).   So you would need a good video card.   And laptops you can kinda forget they are not made for mining.

On this I would bring a laptop and test internet there.  I had a hub that was giving out and started to cause random outages.   If internet though the machines should beep if working right but I would still test internet and not assume.   That hub was quickly replaced once I figured out it was it.  

Also I would test PSU's if you are able to.  I use one close to - https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-Automated-Supply-Oversized-Supplies/dp/B005F778JO/ which does a great job when if I need to test PSU's.  I know you might not have one on hand though.  In morning when you test just curious is PSU fan spinning?  

DHL is very much based on location.  Some people will love them others will run into issues.   I am on the very edge of my  DHL driver's route so not so great for me.  Any shipment that goes DHL I can count on him calling me end of day and asking if I can meet at X location or I won't get it that day.  Worst one was around a hour and half away.... I did not have time to meet him so went next day.

I can't find it the name of it on their site but if you don't have gurenteed delivery by them, they reserve the option to send last leg through usps vs driving it to those on edge of route like me.  So again some will work great, but if on edge of delivery they are a pain.

I have went through a lot of the popular pool's on 24 hour runs.   I decided to go back and do a 3 day run on Antpool (this time making sure to get more screenshot's of entire dashboard page).  During the run the miner itself did very well getting a GH/S AVG of 13,991T reported on the machine itself  The pictures below show the results from mining on Antpool for 3 day's:

It's very rare if not putting money twords an investment. Currently 1 BTC is around 600...  so to get 600 a month for free is kinda dreaming for most.   Even best paying signature campaigns do not reach this area so you would need investments in my eyes.

Now it could be alt coins,  mining, etc.  It really depends on what your best at.   But as I have said bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme so if your wanting to come here and expecting 1 BTC per month without putting any money in it's very very unlikely.  It is hard to find something that could repeat it every month two or everyone would do it... and it would pay less.

Look at mining for example if you make 1 BTC this month you might not next month due to difficulty changes.  So you would need to continue to re-invest to hit it (unless you invested much higher at first).  But finding something that can do 1 BTC each month is not going to be easiest thing, and a  LOT expect it free which just does not happen as BTC holds fiat value.
