Wow ibelinks sold out again, even after news of d3 and a5. Thought they take longer or not at all. Demand is there.

Innosilicon could have an edge over the d3 if they use a chip with a smaller process, eg if d3 chip is 22nm or 16nm, then innosilicon could just use a 16 or 14 or even less. The problem with that is it will cost more for them to make, but its better for data centres as its twice the performance in the same amount of space, the space is something data centres want, which would also explain them trying to target 100+ unit buyers only and not home miners. But with their past performance with late delivery and altered specs id say the d3 is a safer buy, if u get the chance. Who knows they could just attach 2 d3 clones together and call it 1 unit of 30gh, like they did with the a4. Their pic on their site is 1 unit, but that could just be something they made up on photoshop with a pretty yellow fan , however it doesnt show how long it is, could be almost 2 foot long instead of 2 d3 linked and attached together parallel. Bitmain always has the best chips.

BIP148-UASF last step... "change of POW" ... How can I buy "GPU manufactures" stock shares ? Nvidia and amd on nasdaq better off shorting them soon particularly amd

Anything can replace eth for mining it just has to be very pumpable and have high rewards per block and offer something new and better then the rest. Something new would do the trick. a Zcash 2.0

Someone mentioned they offered 6-7k for 1 but they sounded like they wanted more then that
|

Eth making its come back

Whats next? pandaminer x11, ebit x11, geass x11 , pinidea 10ghs things are gonna be screwed in 2 months.

Hollyyshiiitttt, very nice. at September??? It said with this speed we dont have to worry about increasing the difficulty for the next 2 years lol... Pre order august , its only on the Chinese version of the website,

Good bailkal sucks always sold out for anyone outside of China, now we got some real competition that blows their junk out of the water I bet bitmain is reverse engineering other ppls hardware There prob using their 16nm chips

Looks like Innosilicon just punked bitmain lol

Expect miners EARLY AUGUST
UPGRADE KITS COMING SOON
I am with you but i want to know why there is no official announcement on ibelink.co I am still with iBelink The shipping date is on their website, upgrade kits are for owners of the ibelink product, they have offered the same upgrade service in the past - dualminer.com http://www.dualminer.com/iBeLink-DM384M-Dash-and-X11-Miner_p_36.html " The DM384M system we have delivered is a well thought out design. We will continue to use this structure for our next generation X11 ASIC miner. Existing customers will be able to perform a DIY (Do-it-Yourself) upgrade to bring your current DM384M miner to a state of the art X11 ASIC miner. We will ship you two types of PCB boards (8 hashing boards and 1 panel board per blade) to replace current ones. You will be able to reuse the PSU, cooling fans, heatsinks, miner casing and even the Raspberry Pi to reduce your mining costs. One advantage of using multiple hashing boards instead of one big board is that it allows you to replace possible faulty hashing boards with minimum extra cost. We will continue to improve the stability and usability of our software by adding more functions and features. If you have any suggestions, please let us know." They've offered upgrade kits before, and im sure this time they will to satisfy the customer in time for the d3 release. I feel you bro, you probably bought miners from this group buy. This is how bad this group buy was. Dash price 2 months ago was 85 USD, if people had invested 7500 usd they paid for this miner in Dash back then you would have purchase 88.23 DASH. At today's rate those 88.23 Dash = 14068 USD. With 14068 USD you could buy 5 (FIVE) 15ghs D3. Stop trying to convince yourself that this iBelink buy was good. People that purchased iBelink 2 months ago just gotta man up and accept they got PUNK'd by Bitmain. Unlucky, Punked indeed, i wont disagree with that. didnt u try and buy 2 ibelinks but then canceled cause u had trust issues? bet u feel euphoric u turned down a successful groupbuy. , well at least their not vapourware or arent getting delivered. At least the group buy has a shipping date now. Sux to be wrong sometimes. Bet bitmain makes some feel better that they missed out. No one knew bitcoin would double and dash would almost triple, a lot of people who spent their coins on anything 3 months ago is kicking themselves too, especially if they spent 15k of it. 3 d3s for the price of 1 ibelink, sux true, but by the time anyone gets their d3 (if they can buy them without selling out and having to wait months, batch after batch) then difficulty will really skyrocket when a major player builds them and ships them out like toasters, if they dont premine on em first. Firmware issues and such, delays, they even got a prototype? a picture of an l3+ doesnt cut it. They might take longer then people think to make, meanwhile a minimum of 3-4k will be mined off the cost of an ibelink by the time the first d3 batch hits, if its on time, and then another 3-4 weeks for next batch and so on. Why do you think d3s are so cheap and powerful? cause they know once they hit they will destroy the profits of not just every other brand of miner but also themselves, They arent some small workshop like a lot of these other producers are, the fact their cheap isnt good, the rarity will be gone. Dash is already expensive and now bitmain joins the party, well the party will be over in a few months, whats made dash expensive is the fact that it is so hard to mine, huge hardware shortages, bitmain will end that party, profits will be much more modest. LTC was cheap when l3+ came out, dash is already high, how much higher can it go especially with where its network hashrate will be in a few months with these cheap miners. Ibelinks might be short lived but they will own the hashrate for a good month or so and they will make ROI , with upgrade kits in the future, who else offers that. Ibelink was suppose to deliver to groupbuyers first, then advertise on their webpage for public selling, but what choice did they have, they must have found out about bitmains plans only at the last minute, which is likely, im sure bitmain doesnt advertise its plans to its competitors, so yet again not their fault, and especially not the groupbuys fault. At least their offering upgrades i think in a way to satisfy their customers, who else would do something like that? None of this lack of luck is the groupbuys fault, despite how some seem to relish at this recent situation as a way of further put others down. Plue One. I guess at this point - having bitmain making an ASIC miner on your coin is a lot like being made fun of in the "Simpsons". You've made it but do you control your future? Also, buying an ibelink isn't getting punked. People are still going to make a profit. This might work out better then i thought, if people dont buy ibelink and giants and drx s because of bitmain releasing their unbuilt miner in 2-3 months then its more profit for ibelinks owners, much more.. even more if people accumulate coins now before the difficulty bomb. Even the new giant owners have a chance.. now their who everyone should feel for.

Hi, Further the conversation on Skype. Total cost would be: Miner+shipping=70000+543=70543usd Ship to: Aleem Khan -------------------------- Phone:------------------ Bank info for receiving payment please find from attached file. After you done the transfer, kindly provide me the payment voucher and your passport, if paid from company bank account, please provide the copy of your business license.
best regards. Baikal miner
$7000/unit??? OMG... This is a joke Haha with the new bitmain miner it will be 1 Star product 1 star service Let's see... Baikal New Giant 2GH/s ($7000) vs. Bitmain D3 15GH/s ($2699) No wonder why the new giants never advertised their price online, their advertised prices shouldn't be 7k now, and ibelinks arent selling out.

This is whats good about ibelinks pc case design, its upgradable, try upgrading a tube miner and keeping warranty, good luck with that, upgrade kits might help make up the difference between these and the d3s in price and performance. Ibelink isnt out of this race yet.. Yea keep dreaming..lol I said they might help, depends on the new specs and cost of new boards.
