Just found this thread...glad I did. Some of you know me from Kano's pool. I've moved my commitment to Avalon (I've only got three S7s in a datacenter, plus to now six S3s at home). Put my first A6 online a couple of days ago, and happy with it. Second shipped this morning. They are, in my experience, as profitable as an S7, better built, and easier to manage in a low-amp environment. The S3s are retiring when A6 #2 comes online, and will be distributed in pairs, w/psus, to some other disabled folks here on the island who have an interest, free power, and a desire to learn about BTC. Anyway...also anxiously awaiting the A7 release. Any further buys on my part will be this next-gen unit (so long as it's competitively priced) and go to Labrador. Might even replace the A6s with one or two, and pay forward the A6s...who knows. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FAa8QG12.jpg%3F1&t=663&c=5umoRBGzWmoT3A) Nice. I have space reserved for two of them. They sound nice, and I also have room for just one. I may buy more if they perform well, but it's looking good for Avalon so far.. I may even replace my one S9 for an A7. Keeping up with the thread for new developments, but I doubt anything too major will happen. I just don't like one company basically having the whole generation in their hands; Avalon might make this one better. I just hope that the miner's efficiency is good enough that it'd be worth buying- it could definitely be a major contender, provided it's reliable enough. I'd also secretly like to see another USB miner from them, although I doubt they'll make any more.

Name: leowonderful .........Post count: 818 Rank: sr. Member .................Bitcoin Address: 1J7f8hF3KmM6Rqscknpeq5R5LtGDxhWA77 ..........Profile UID: 416731 I'm already in one of your campaigns; the requirements are identical, I think I'll make it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I will change signature asap once acceptedJust did it. Thanks for saying how long the campaign will last as well; most stop without warning and usually run until out of funds, which can happen quickly. I don't often have too much time to post, but I can guarantee at least 20 high-quality posts per week, if not more.

So... as some of you who spend a lot of time exploring the forums know, I have zero issues calling out self-proclaimed "professional" writers that suck (which includes the vast majority). In this case, I'm giving a huge +1 to leowonderful. I'll be honest and say that his writing is far from perfect, but it's also of much greater quality than most others'. And when I talk about others, I'm including, for example, editors at major news sources (think CNN, Forbes, Fox, MSN, etc.). I'm actually extremely impressed, to say the least. That said, leowonderful, I may have a couple projects coming up for you in the short-term, ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . Thanks for the vouch! I was sleeping, so I couldn't respond any earlier than I have, but I can't thank you enough. I'll be here anytime you need work done. Prices won't be moving for a very long time, as I've found a perfect balance. If you feel prices are too high or low, we can work something out.

1. The account's post quality is poor and with that, I doubt you'd be able to get into any signature campaign at all. You'd need to extensively improve post quality to even start thinking about getting into a campaign and posting, which most people don't have the time for.
2. That price is pretty damn high, and you should set up a beginning auction price or at least put a C/O into the sale. Sr. Members have been auctioned for 0.03 and 0.04 recently, and I don't think anybody would pay near 0.075 for your account.
3. The account checker token is incorrect, at least for me, and you should consider updating it every once in a while as well. Is the account in a signature campaign? If you could say something this basic, it'd make people a lot more interested.
first of all, I don't like account selling. but I don't think 0.075btc is high price for a SR member account. a Sr member worth even more, I would never sell my account even for more than 0.3 btc.. what about yours ? will you sell your account for less then OP's price? I don't think so.. An account is such a precious thing, and it can be a great source of income, especially if you're above Sr. Member- if you get into a high-paying campaign, you can earn quite a lot. It also takes lots of time to get to Sr. Member- it took me around a year to get here iirc, and you can't buy time. If you can't join any campaigns and are trying to sell your account for that reason, wait a week or even less, and you'll find that new campaigns will pop up. Sure, they may last only a week or two, but chances are they'll give you something. I discourage people from selling for these reasons, but people do so anyways. Unless time is actually an issue and you can't find time to post, try to keep your account.

I am developing a new faucet rotator. The faucet rotator is http://fountrain.com/faucet/Now I want to promote my faucet rotator. How do I do? I am looking for some sites that promote different bitcoin site by display banner ads. (Noted that at this time budget is not so much) There so many free options. Rotators. Banner rotators. Auto surf. Manual surf exchange. Back links. Website submissions. Higher Alexa ranking and google ranking. Make sire your site has something to offer and doesn't look like every other one. Don't use too many antibot features, people get pissed off and want to leave and they never come back. You're going to get botted either way, no matter how many things you put in to stop it. Might as well put one or two antibot features just to stop the most basic bots; for the most part, if you get enough traffic, the bots won't be such a big issue. Just make sure that you keep up with the latest antibot things so that you don't lose too much- bots improve every day, and the software to stop them isn't advancing so fast. Putting up a blog with your faucet is also a nice way to get people; you get traffic from people not only looking to get earnings from faucets, but also people looking for some information. You can also add flash games and things like that. There's lots of things you can do if you set your mind to it.

i would wait for the next gen asic if you really want to mine bitcoin, because right now not even a s9 is very good as investment, the price tanked and the halving is killing it, otherwise you can look at altcoin, with 10k it might be possible to buy 3 rigs and have a very good return
If anything, bitcoin mining is becoming less and less suitable for the normal home miner every single day, and if the S9 isn't a good investment as of now, it's not looking good for a next-generation miner. Bitcoin difficulty's expected to rise even higher than it is now, with all the new S9s on the market. I agree with your altcoin statement, and if you could invest a bit into Ethereum mining and find cheap cards, you may be able to make a bit, although a difficulty bomb is scheduled for Ethereum and mining won't be profitable past that point. Scrypt is looking promising with the Innosilicon A4 Dominator, though, so I would look into that if you have enough money.

Who is the contest winner?
Since nobody was participated in this review contest,I guess it should be you the winner this time if you completed the task.but OP may be forgot about this thread because there is still no update He also hasn't been online since 2 days ago, so I suggest you send him a pm. If things get too bad you can just - rep him; he runs a signature campaign in addition to this so I assume money is not an issue for him. It could also just be that he's looking for a few more people to enter, although it would've been nice if he had announced that earlier.

it'll be difficult to make profit even with the new S9- if you have electricity above 0.10$/kwh, it'll be almost impossible with most miners as most people will have an edge. If you have a cost lower or substantially lower than that, factor in cooling- ASICS make quite a lot of heat, and if you live in a hot place, it'll be hard getting that heat out. After that, if you have a reasonably good electric price and cooling is cheap, I recommend buying the latest generation miner as of now- the S9. Prices recently went down with the last batch, so it's now more affordable. Good luck mining.

You'll need to watch out for expenses like hiring a manager for spam and accepting people in, as well as just the cost of the campaign itself- you may need to adjust the payouts from time to time as bitcoin prices change, your budgets change, etc. Don't be afraid to offer a high paying campaign for even just a week- it'll get you more exposure if people are more incentivized to post.
Campaigns are very effective for getting new customers, but generally people will like a flashier Sr + member signature more than a Jr member- plan accordingly.

New batch same specs?
Just checked - 2 new batches (12 and 13), one the 11.something one the 12.something same as the 2 SOLD OUT IN NO TIME B10 and B11 on specs but price increased about 3% respectively. Good 'ol bitmain with their marketing schemes. Miners will probably go even higher in price-terrible for all of us. I expect it'll take a damn long time for the prices to even get near reasonable, and for miners to stop selling out nearly instantly. We need some competition in the miner scene asap- hopefully the A7 does this, or we're going to see more instant sellouts of miners for a while. B12 and B13 are still available, after 10 hours today ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) That's nice to know- they probably increased production, and prices seem to be a bit lower; I can't see the older product's pages, but it looks like they said that they were making these new batches on their blog- https://blog.bitmain.com/en/batch-12-batch-13-antminer-s9-release/

Your prices are a bit high- prices are all over the place; Overwatch is definitely cheap, but headphones and steam gifts are massively higher than on many other sites; i actually expected a discount with Bitcoins, but it didn't happen. Still a great site, i'm going to write a few reviews for you guys. It'd be nice if you provided some more steam GCs, I feel 20$ is a lot and if you could add 50, 100 and maybe even 1 and 5- that'd be great. If you guys would consider paying in pure BTC i'd be a bit more interested, but I want a few copies of CS:GO for smurfing. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Also, if you could add No Man's Sky- that game is amazing, and i currently have a cracked version and i'd be willing to buy on your site. Hi, thank you very much for your feedback. Pricing is definitely high on our list, we know it's all over the place. We're considering adding a name your price feature. What do you think? Would it be valuable to be able to ping us from the product page and tell us the price you'd pay for a product? The Steam GC's campaign is very expensive. This campaign is to help us get valuable feedback from the community and to get us noticed. I imagine we'll do something more with GC campaigns in the future, but I need to do a deal with a wholesale supplier so it's not quite so expensive. Look for a similar campaign around the Holiday season. That'd be a great feature to add, especially if you're planning on getting more traffic - I've already shown the site to a few people and they all agree pricing is really what makes the site not as attractive as others. Other than that, great work! On a sidenote, how long do the gift codes last?

23% off ? Phh..
I've already reported the post for being in the wrong section anyways; should belong in the Digital Goods section. Discounts are actually pretty average for the pricerange; i bet i could get lower prices elsewhere. His account's dead either way, Vod's reported him and he's probably just using this to shitpost.

You said yobit campaign is closed.If that is the case than it is a high price for sr.member account
I mean yobit campaign is not accept new participants, but their campaign is still running. There's still higher-paying campaigns than yobit for less work, and the price you're asking for is really high. I'd suggest you lower it as you're going to get lowballs and only lowballs. 0.006/day IS a lot, but that's with the maximum 20 posts, which is some pretty hard work; in comparison, there's campaigns giving out 0.007/day for only 10 posts. It does have solid post quality, so you've got that going for you- I seldom see accounts with 100% post quality. I only have 89.89% as of now because I used to post a lot of short responses when I was a newbie and jr- that's 50% of the forum. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Bump. Written 2 articles for DogecoinMachine, I will do articles for you too! I don't only do Bitcoin-related topics- get a variety! Articles will be near or below listed prices except for rare circumstances; either way, we'll discuss this through Skype or a PM. My Skype is le9o z35.
I write the same quality no matter how long or short! I will often go over a limit and charge nothing more, but unless I double the size of the article, you won't be charged any extra, and even in that case i'll only add 1 or 3 dollars to the overall cost. I only take Bitcoins after the article is finished, so you can be assured i'm not going to run away with your money.

You've made almost no response so far; am I denied or not? Just nervous, since I see almost everybody accepted.
Included everything in the PM, I just want to know what the issue is if there is one. I'm not usually a patient person :/
yes, same here please OP make sure we are denied or accepted thank you Just look at the google spreadsheet (link available in 1st page) and check your name there. I see leowonderful in the list but im not sure of Seven Up. After 9 pages I haven't seen an answer form OP that funds will be held by an escrow and who will manage the campaign or else this will end up as free advertisement and spampaign. I'd contact OP; he worked out the issue with me and it seems he just skipped me for some reason. I know yahoo's offered to run the campaign or at least escrow for the campaign, but he's not gotten any response AFAIK. I'd assume he's trying to cut the costs down, but this campaign will take a shit ton to run and I'm surprised OP even has enough from his mixing service to run this. Bitmixer on a huge scale, I always wonder how mixing services can run these kinds of campaigns... dont forget that it might be just a scam, that would explain why it has so much space We'll find out soon enough. Even if they only do just pay once, it'll be quite a large sum for most people. Ofc it could be like you said and they're just trying to get free advertising. Also doesn't look too great for the site(I personally haven't used it yet, but most people think it's not the best). So far everybody's been accepted except for a few exceptions; I don't think OP cares much about post quality at all and just wants advertising. The fact that you can earn 0.049 a week is pretty interesting; they'd need to pay out at least 3 BTC per week, which means 2 per payday... quite an expensive campaign, and it'll probably only last 2 weeks if it at all they pay.

Besides post quality and all of the other things these guys are talking about, it could just be that one signature campaign manager dislikes you and runs multiple campaigns, so you probably won't get into the ones he runs. Post quality is a huge thing though, and I recommend learning better English (not critical, but it helps) and trying to add more to the conversation. Just by doing that, you'll look better on your last posts and also look better as a person. Short responses are not always avoidable, so don't. If you have lots of high-quality posts mixed with short responses occasionally, that's still good- people have things they need to do.
Also, don't spam the forum. I've gotten banned for a week for that (yep, I was new back then). Don't do it, it's not worth it and you'll just be even further away from the forum.
