Hello, So far I've found out that: * Cloud mining and off-cloud mining are apparently the same. * There's a way to determine earnings per day, and it involves the golden number. * There's a maximum amount of BTC that can be earned per gigahash. * And there's more. Learn those, and the other findings at: http://omarbessa.comThanks for reading! ?? |

Really no need to fix those controllers if we can use a Pi!! So it's either buggy ethernet controller with uncertain fix or Raspberry PI with uncertain capability (possibly unreliable and/or underpowered) in an uncertain setup. Raspberry PI + cgminer is not enough, you need an OS running on the PI, as well as an own power supply and the shown UART->USB adapter, and without custom OS image with proper implementation you are bound to command-line to operate cgminer manually, instead of having a nice web-GUI like on all the other miners around. AM should have gone the right way offering a proper control unit with proper web-GUI, everything else is sub-standard nowadays. Personally, I would much rather run cgminer over ssh (rather than have a GUI). Way more powerfull (you can do whatever cgminer can do, rather than what the web interface to cgminer lets you do). One of the first things I look for in a machine is ssh access. I think most people here can ssh to a machine and type ./ (I hope at least  I was about to write some perl scripts to connect to the web interface on the tubes, but got busy. With these, no need, I'm excited. I know it isn't for everyone, but 100 times more powerfull. hey bro you get the tubes? I gave you a trust. for the sale. I am holding back on these long tubes for the next shipment. I think I will buy one then. |

There are usually natural variations in difficulty. I've seen a drop like this before simply due to variance,
While its usual, I doubt its natural. I see a clear pattern that hashrate tends to drop in the second half of each difficulty window. Its almost as if someone is throttling his hashrate to prevent the next adjustment to be too large. That doesnt seem to make a lot of sense financially, so you could theorize the entity is diverting hashrate for a blockwitholding attack (is that still going on?) It does make sense if you have 300ph offline. putting all that online means you have 55% of the network. so each jump add a lot then back off. after 10 jumps the network grows enough to handle the 300ph |

He was good to me. I am giving him free ad space until the 27th.
Then I will sell my signature for a flat rate and guarantee 200 posts a month for that flat rate.

My mining days are shrinking and I am going the buy and hold route more then ever.
And that is part of the reason why miners selling off all their BTC will not drag the price all the way to zero. If the price drops by enough, even existing holders of BTC will be happy to buy up all additional coins that come on the market. It certainly won't drop below $10 (at least not on account of miners alone), probably not below $100 and it wouldn't surprise me if even $200 proved a firm and unbreakable support. Once the price stabilises, the global hash rate will adapt to the rational level given that price. as it drops in price I will buy more as I feel it will be around a long time. |

well they mined like mofo's added tons and ton's of gear diff will jump 14% or more and they got diff to jump at least 2 days quicker the 25th or maybe the 26th vs the 28th.

Bitmain, congratulations on the release of the S4. Unfortunately, the pricing and efficiency do not justify the purchase.
Amen! all of that HYPE! for nothing! Already better price points available in the market now. Even from Bitmain on the S3s and purchasing a power supply. What confuses me is why go through all of that just to disappoint your buyers? simple, they want to drive people to their cloud product where they have more control over the customer and less exposure to liability . Very well stated, hadn't even crossed my mind. Went from selling a somewhat decent product to a cloud hustle. well the unit is about 1600 usd shipped to me in New Jersey ,USA I can buy 2900 shares of their cloud for the same price. So 2.9th and no hassles vs 2.0th and hassles Or I can buy from cex.io about 2.2th easy to trade shares this makes the s-4 very hard for a little guy. I did get 1 s-3 on ebay a week ago and I ordered 1 s-3 on ebay last night. my cost for the 2 was about 540 usd. will stay with them for now. |

I will provide a DHCP enabled RPI image for my customers purchasing rpi controllers. For an extra $20 I'll add Wi-Fi capability.
I'm spoiled with the ease of the S1's and S3's. I will need one myself. Stupid question with RPi we can add any pool correct? Was or is the BE controller limited to a few pools? With the RPI, you can use any pool. Due to the processing limitations of an RPI, I'm not certain it would be able to handle more than a couple Prismas. The block erupter controller can handle 8 units but it is limited to ghash.io and slush at the moment. yeah I had the shorter tubes. you could daisy chain up to 8 of them on the controller. but the controller allowed 2 big pools . slush or cex.io plus 2 little pools A) mmpool.org B) solo mining at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=763510.0 ckolivas the writer of cgminer runs it. the big problem of the controller is only 1 pool at a time with no auto rollover. Rasp pi that crazy sold me for the r-boxes was and is very easy to run…… It needs a power source a phone charger like this works http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-AC-Wall-Charger-Travel-Power-Adapter-for-iPhone-5S-5-4S-iPod-andriod-phone-/301278705316?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&hash=item46259c36a4 |

If I buy 1 price is 3.528 + .103 to ship to USA I am trying to figure out hosting option. okay seems that the .103 btc is to ship to the hosting data center 11 cents a kwatt to host. seems that shipping to the usa is free so 3.528 btc to the USA price is too high for me either way. good luck to all buyers!   |

So we know for sure that they only require a Pi to run...not that POS controller? If so I might have to pick up a few.
yeah have to agree with you that the controller is not up to par. while mine worked fine it has the 1 pool limit with no roll over. and very few pool choices. while those two issues scored for me I know that it hurt you. I am thinking of having 'crazyguy' program a rasp pi for me and ordering 1 or 2 of these. I will delay until crazy nails down the rasp pi for me. +1 why not crazzyguy add a raspi on this so after recieving the item you will surely sure that is plug and play You lost me on this? We are just waiting to see if it truly ONLY needs a Pi to function. From how I read it I think it needs the controller and a Pi. I am hoping for the rasp pi as a standalone. I will wait for details. I sold off my tubes at a really good price due to my great luck with them. basically 2btc in and when all was said and done 3.7btc back for plus 1.7btc So I do not have any controllers or tube parts. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=790451.0The house is pretty empty right now for a change. Edit: that adapter is looking good. |

NO shipping/shipping pricing
NO power cable
BAD pricing !
Customized PSU if broken, DOA, ETC = more downtime & wait for a replacement & pay MORE !
DON'T BUY even with coupons !
assuming shipping remains the same (most likely more) USD 200 + USD 1450 (S4) + USD 10 (power cable) = USD 1660 for 1 unit of S4 = TOO EXPENSIVE !
People listen up DON'T BUY so the GREED can be stopped ! or you can happily continue to flush your $ or BTC down the toilet bowl.
i truly agree with you the watts are 1380 at the wall ! not too good ! |

4 s-3s do close to 2th 1.8 - 2.0 they would use about 1480 watts for about 1.9th the s-4 uses about 1380 watts for about 2.0th Specifications: * Chip Operating Voltage: 0.72V * Chip Quantity per unit: 160 * Hash Rate: 2,000GH/s guaranteed * Power Efficiency: 0.69Watt/GH/s at the wall* Over clocking: About 10%, but not guaranteed * 3U Rack 432mm*442mm*133mm * PSU inside: 1400W, 80PLUS gold. Power line not included. You may look for one line with no less than 16A in your local market * Temperature: 40-50 degree Celsius tested in the mining farm * Fan Speed: 3900RPM * Stable but a little bit noisy * Ethernet connection, Stand alone * Certificate Compliance: FCC/CE well look on the brighter side of things.. these s-4's will make your s-3's more valuable . watts are mentioned at .69 at the wall so this unit pulls 1380 watts I pulled images from bitmaintech website. that is a server psu.   |

The 1st Batch of AntMiner S4 is 1,450 USD per unit (excluding shipping), with dispatch estimated September 29th. Batch 1 will go on sale at 22:00pm Sept. 25th Beijing (UTC +8 Time Zone)
about 1 hour to go. well I dissed the price like many others have. So lets see how sales go. For today I will not buy but I will keep an eye out on the sales. I am always curious about gear just for the sake of the gear. BTW they do not need to sell these to miners if they pull low watts they can just mine with them. |
