I see this thread pop up all the time and everytime I look at I think "damn thats a good deal" (in a US cowboy voice)
I live in the UK and Im trying wrap my head around the price, so its 1.47 bitcoin plus shipping. This includes a full unit with all four cards and total hash rate of 1.4TH.
Thanks
Well partner, you're in luck, cause we've got the best damn Prismas west of the Mississippi! That 1.47 Bitcoin is gonna get you 4 cards totaling' up to a big ole' 1.4th/s of pure bitcoin processing power! That's enough to make your grandpappy's block erupter cry home to momma. If you're ponderin' spendin' that 1.47 BTC somewhere else, don't forget - Broke is what happens when a cowboy lets his yearnin's get ahead of his earnin's. That's all cause you from deep in the Heart of Texas! ♕♕♕ |

It is a great idea, but how bitcoins will be contributed for all of the people ?
Only some will benefit from btc even if it lasts for 1000 years. It is a tool for survival like a hammer it can do good or bad. Plus only some get to use a hammer in this world. |

all nonsense propaganda put out by KNC. No company can grab 40 percent sell mine and sell the coins in order to crash price.
I could go into long details as to why but the simple answer is:
bitmaintech
asicminer
bitfury
can all ramp up to 100ph in two months if they choose to do so.
The big companies have figured out to not grow quickly the risk is big.

if difficulty keeps growing slowly, there is a chance to get Roi even for small miners.
maybe the top 5 companies had been reading these threads and decided to slow growth down. would be nice to see 1-5% for 10 jumps in a row. |

I have an issue on one of the 3 r-boxes it is running very hot compared to the other 2. Not sure what to do. Not the psu. tested problem is the same unit. set at lower freq 290 vs 320 helped just a bit. I have not disassembled unit to see if heatsink paste needs a change. fans work one unit just runs hot. It did not run hot when it first came. so failing chip or heat sink paste fali are indicated please advise  Have you fixed this problem? yes i did . https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=612390.msg9024166#msg9024166 |

this might http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182305&cm_re=psu_700w-_-17-182-305-_-Productbut not sure. has 672 + 672 = 1344 watts single rail on each psu. each psu has 3 cables use 1 full one on two boards split the 3rd cable on the same 2 boards. all draws off the one rail and load should balance. the 3 cables will be doing 600-650 watts for 2 boards it may work. if this works it is 69+69 = 138 usd may be a good choice cheaper then a evga 1300 see photo:  yours is a no no the 4 rail system makes it very hard to balance the loads. also max watts if you can balance the loads is 636 + 636 = 1272 watts that is the most optimistic number see photo:

Even at the new, "slow" rate, difficulty is growing over 100%/year. ROI declines accordingly.
well we don't know the new rate. we had .98 % we had 2.81% right now we have 1.65% for bitcoinwisdom and .25% for bitcoincharts. so at 2.81% diff in a year diff jumps from 35985 to 69980 that is 94.4 % which is how you most likely got your 100% number. but at .98% diff in a year the diff jumps from 35985 to 45475 that is 26.3 % which would be amazingly low. The numbers are very simple the slower and lower network growth is at the 350 usd btc price the better it is for the big builders that are mining. realistically I find .98% a jump for 26.3 % in 1 year hard to believe in. Times are very interesting right now. also zen-gaw miners are attempting to attack btc with a new coin so if btc drops to 200-250 I could see the network shrink. |

guys a new scam. I mention it here because I got a .0001 btc payment with a note telling me I was to receive a 16.34 btc payment just go to https:////bit - safe?  ----------- altered so you don't try it. So I went to a safe pc put the website in and it asked me to sign into blockchain info or coinbase so they could deposit the coins. We all know they would pull coins out not put them in. I think they felt using the high number of btc might attract a solo miner. I googled around and found many addresses on blockchain info got this message today . so beware. |

Now what you think about the BTC future and the after effects of the current situation if we see in the perspective of mining.
The value of bitcoin directly affects mining in a delayed fashion, that has been shown time and time again. As the value remains strong, or gets stronger, the number of big miners will continue to increase over time. However the reverse is not true - mining itself does not directly affect BTC value. It has indirect effects through bringing more players into the bitcoin world, and through the sell off of mined coin, but most big miners will be dumping more of their mined coins sooner to pay off the considerable running costs. This means the bitcoin economy will stand more and more on its own based on what it was always actually based on - perceived value by the market that creates the economy for it, and hardly anything to do with mining. Unless some threat (security or otherwise) hits mining, it will have less and less influence on the bitcoin economy itself. In short, the answer to your actual question is, the mining situation will have hardly any effect on BTC future. The only way it might is if some large famous company decides to create a large mine - the mining itself won't affect the value, but the association with that company will increase people's confidence in it. This is why altcoins that differentiate themselves by their mode of mining are ultimately futile. The mining is the least important part of the perceived value and consequently the economy surrounding the coin. Altcoins were originally meant to be a testing ground for new ideas for bitcoin in ways that can be incorporated by it. However once it became clear that bitcoin started getting real value, other coins were being created in an attempt to be part of what they missed out on with bitcoin - mining it while it was cheap. But the arguments for any actual benefit to the altcoins being generated compared to bitcoin continue to revolve around some perceived technically better way to mine to keep cpu/gpu/home/small miners/no ASICs. Firstly there is no way that can happen - anything can be made into an ASIC. Second, if something develops real value, big players will always come in - why wouldn't they? Finally, as I mentioned with bitcoin above - the value of the coin has virtually nothing to do with mining. If your only real advantage is a different mode of mining, then that's not enough to sustain an economy. Especially if your mode of mining eventually converged to the same endpoint anyway with ASICs and big mines. What's really different then, and why would anyone want your also-ran coin? That's not to say that something won't come along to supplant bitcoin. It's just that it needs to be radically different in design and approach. How? I don't know, but if your starting point for a new coin is getting the bitcoin client and then modifying it, and ending up with something that is 99% the bitcoin code and model, are you not already just doomed to being another bitcoin clone? A few alt coins can be used as additional security but there is not much need for the current 25 plus on the market. 25? There are currently 500+ http://coinmarketcap.com/ I did a typo meant to type 250+ not 25+ nah.... go for 2500 to cover all. Point is ..... FCK scam coins. well not necessary is more accurate. 10 or less is more then enough |

If you got a PM from me yesterday, send me that label. Shipping Monday.
Is this the shipment your already paid for arriving Monday? Are any of the units arriving unspoken for? I generally only buy equipment I can have in my hands within 5 Business days.  two or three of us have asked about this so far the answer is no. |

first off this should be in alt coin mining section.
next this will continue to happen due to btc price being low. good luck hope for price to jump up.

LOVE THE TWO FANS IN THE DOOR to circulate air, I do a similar thing with a basement window and one of the dual fans ($20 bucks) window units myself! yeah cooler fall weather really helped those tubes cool down. @op the price drop on the r-boxes is tempting. |

If I pay today what is estimated time I would receive a Prisma ?
Along the lines of this question. When will you have one on asicpuppy? |

perfect thank you.
try using freq 212.5 see if you get the hw to drop. you are correct those numbers suck. I have had my hand s on 20 s-3's I have had 3 dog's so to speak nothing made them better above 212.5, but all 3 of them ran decently with freq 212.50 or freq 206.25
Seems like the HW errors are directly related to the 'x' on one of the chips in Miner Status. Once the chip gets X-ed the HW errors stop increasing. This is at 212. I will also try a bit lower and a bit higher and wait for that chip to be thrown out of the pool. x chip is dead and can be for different reasons. clock too high psu too weak if results improve with 212 clock run the 212 clock. i forgot the exact name of the psu that you use. it was a gold 1000 watter but they differ in rail structure. if you have multi rails it can be a problem. |
