Ah no for sure I did not. I'm cash poor. I just mine and that's it  

Was the D3 available again for a little while today? I wonder if it will go to the Hashnest? Do you think them mining for us is a good option?

I didn't get a reply overnight from Inno. I am sure they are slammed with email and requests. I will try a couple other email addresses I have to see what happens.

If you get any PM's from me assume it is a scam at this point . We are still running down leads and details. As pointed out notice the spelling of the name sending you the PM. Too many scammers here so be careful.

The replies to this thread are to gauge interest and should not be viewed as a list. Once we have details and it appears that Inno will work with us then we will start to make lists and figuring out how the order process will work.

We will need trusted members of this forum who live in other parts of the world outside the US to possibly help take delivery of miners to forward to other buyers near you. In the past Inno would only ship in volume to a location and then we had to pickup the additional shipping from that location to us. For larger orders they were willing to direct ship. So if you are interested in helping and have good trust ratings here on the forum please speak up. That will help a great deal if we are able to get the group buy setup with Inno.

At this point we don't know if Inno is willing to work with us or any details yet. I am hoping that we can setup something similar to the A4 preorder.  Demand is much higher this time so we will have to see if they will work with us.

Phil has graciously offered to help us with this group buy so all funds transfers for this group buy if it does happen will be done through through Phil's escrow.  I will NOT be handling anyone's funds for this group buy.

Please stand by as we reach out to Inno. Please keep posting your interest in buying here in this thread. Thanks!

BIP91/Segwit looks like a sure thing now. With a big probability of being locked-in at first activation period ending in the next hours.

I'm interested to see what the price will be at this point. I have a feeling its going to be astronomical...

Looks like price is reacting to the probability of SegWit locking in! Those of you who bought at 1800~ have made a lot of profit!

Typically Bitmain is more serious when talking about shipment dates.  Inno had considerable delays in past so it's important to take into account.  Many users of this forum claimed about delays in Inno A4

Group buy?

The website downtime (which was about 14 to 10 hours ago) was due to an issue with the server handling website services, not to DDoS. Said issue only affected website services, and is unrelated to the DDoS attack of July 18.
By the way, "Is it down" is designed to check the status of websites, so you can't use it to check the status of mining servers, since Stratum does not run over HTTP.

I also received a scam PM from Lonqsnowsm: - Notice the Q instead of G

Are you sure the problem wasn't with your connection? The logs say that globally the hash rate was stable all along, and I've had multiple users confirm that their mining was completely unaffected while the website was down.
Unless you're talking about the DDoS attack of two days ago, when some of the mining servers were indeed down for 15 to 30 minutes (which is why one should always have multiple failover servers configured).

So what do you think? It seems to me that Jihan Wu doesn't command enough support for a chain split. It will be better for him (and for everyone else) to stay in the original Bitcoin chain, rather than risking his money and reputation in building another one. Anyway... it is his call.

Can confirm, just contacted Dominique from Inno that this is indeed true.
30.2 GH at 750W
Would be interested to work with a trusted member of bitcointalk to organise a group buy, as their MOQ is 100 units.

Any other info on bitcoin-miner-store.com? Anyone ever order from them?

The D3 is interesting. Normally Bitmain owns the efficiency war, not looking that way this time if the product specs are to be believed from iBelink and Innosilicon.

Sorry for the inconvenience, the website experienced some issues in the last couple hours. As far as I can tell, the mining servers were unaffected. Everything should be back to normal now.

yeah I was thinking that as well, it seems like an arms race right now for X11 asics, It'll be interesting to see who comes out on top, my guess it will be a 2 horse race at some point.
