Well, In telegram, we discussed.
He has no free money and cant front the purchase. 
And I cant send money/coin to a stranger and "hope" they're legit.

It's one heckuva deal, but not worth risking a $2k loss over.

agreed and that is why I went with an S9 SE - he said he could pre-purchase up to 1k and the S9's were only ones under that range. That way he could pre-purchase and I could provide funds to escrow - then both buyer and seller are protected.

Hope everything works out for you. 
No disrespect towards the OP. I'd really like an S17 at that price, but with so many scams out there, I hope you understand I cant "trust" any stranger on the internet.

I've wired up my garage to run 3 S17's.  I got two last month in the $3200-3600 range. And also running an S9.   Just keeping my eyes peeled for that last unit.

nice, wish I had some S17's best unit I have is a T17 and a T15, the rest are scrypt miners and S9's

I'm interested in an S17... how do we arrange payment?    Escrow ?

Hi everyone. Today-tomorrow are the last days when I can both pay and pick up the goods for you

will you be providing a tracking number today?
7884  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: 500 s9 Antminer for sale on: September 05, 2019, 12:15:41 PM
There are 500 s9 ant miners for sale that I have found. The price is around 20k usd including shipping. If interested please let me know. I will share details if you agree to a sourcing fee of 50 s9 antminers Smiley
You have "found" ? Cheesy
How did you "found" 500 miners ?
How did you calculate that price including shipping?
Why you are asking a sourcing fee ?
Where is your pictures for proof of ownership?
Where are they located?
Escrow?
Its not like there is many people looking to buy 500 miners at once, could you provide price per miner?
Are they coming with any PSU and warranty ?

Just to let you know, people will be interested by the same way you were interested to provide information for "your sale"...
Without future information you are wasting people time because seems like you don't mind wasting yours...

P.S: How come you were searching for used S9's few days ago here -> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5179766
But now you are selling extra 500 ? Cheesy That seems so legit

agreed with 99% of the above - however, i thought it was 20k AND shipping so even more skeptical if the 20k includes the shipping as that would drop the price very very low.

as for him searching for S9's the other day - my guess is in his search he may have found a seller not on these forums who has a substantial qty of miners - instead of telling the seller of the forums (which hard to believe anyone with that many miners would not already know of the forums) he is trying to sell them - basically, buyer gives him 50 miners and he puts you in contact with the seller.
7885  Economy / Computer hardware / selling 3 BW - L21 Scrypt miners w/psu on: September 05, 2019, 05:49:39 AM
I am selling 3 BW - L21 scrypt miners

they run at around 550 Mh/s and just under 925 watts I paid $400 for all 3 shipped so willing to sell them for $300 shipped in the US (willing to ship outside US but that might raise the price)

nothing wrong with them, the only issue I had with the original seller was these were advertised to run at 825 watts but they truly run at 900 - 925 watts (1 miner ran at 950 but eventually went down to 925 when I lowered the freq)

the only reason I am selling them is to make room for more SHA-256 miners, I can only run 20 miners in my current set up.

the link I bought them from is here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5118332.0

HagssFINN of bitcointalk.org did a really nice review of these as well - that can be found here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2118409

the miners do have some bumps and scratches - one has a fan that has a broken corner, all of this is shown in the pictures - none of this affects their functionality - I have run them for several months with only taking them offline once to blow dust off the chips (I do this to all my ASIC's once a month)

my pictures are here https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tfd6glg1rypun8h/AAChO6enAzR_24e5cMrDpShIa?dl=0

I will take BTC, LTC, ETH, BCH or USD and escrow is encouraged.

any questions, just let me know.
7886  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: BITMAIN.COM Everything Discounted 25 % on: September 05, 2019, 12:39:26 AM
to update on my order - police 686 has obtained miner and provided me with price - 25% off from bitmains price plus shipping ($110 USD)

I have used escrow via forum member OgNasty - and am now waiting for tracking number from police 686

will update once I have tracking and again once I receive miner.

Re-read everything. I didn’t ask you for money.  Although even if asked, no one would have helped, because everyone here is dreaming of wealth.

You should realize that asking for a no collateral loan is the same as asking for free money. And while we may dream of riches, so do you - just by using other peoples money for free. Anything worth having is worth working for.
7888  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to receive a donation in bitcoins? on: September 04, 2019, 09:14:33 PM
In my life, complete devastation. A debt hole formed. The family is disappointed in me. Banks do not give loans and debts must be repaid immediately. The only person who stayed with me is my wife. I love her so much. I can’t cope with these problems and only my wife holds me in this world. Is it possible to receive a donation or a crypto loan without collateral online? And how is this best done?
Why don't you make something that is useful and try to sell it in crypto, i mean what is your best talent that you could only do? You know that there's no free in the real world even if you say you are in debt i know in the first time you wouldn't want to be in that hellhole in the first place yet you continue to do so. If you already sacrificed something to someone then do it again if you want to move up.

If everything was as simple as you say, I would not write here.  In your country, they do not pay so well for talents.

nothing is supposed to be simple - it is supposed to be hard work and challenging - otherwise everyone would be millionaires and no one would have a crap job.

2 x Innosilicon T2Turbo @ 24.0TH - $700 each


how are these performing? power consumption as advertised? I think with 5 cent electric these might earn me about $90 per month profit ea so tempted.
7890  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to receive a donation in bitcoins? on: September 04, 2019, 08:21:44 PM
rather than asking for donations - you might want to look instead for a way to earn the money rather than asking. Control your spending, cut out the stuff that is "want" and stick with what is "need" at least until you can actually afford to waste money on the "want" things.

can't wait to see what Asic is coming.

I cant wait either - even though I have to return my R606 - I was happy with how it performed when it was working so I can imagine that anything new coming will be just as good or better.
7892  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread on: September 04, 2019, 12:23:11 PM
Yes. You need to donit for all newpacs/606’s you have connected.

I did it for the one. just wanted to be sure it was the right driver.

Thanks for the update and great that you got the API running.

I've looked at the API report and it looks like most information should be displayed correctly in Awesome Miner. One limitation is that this miner doesn't support reporting the temperature - the temperature value reported is 0.

that is correct - the temp reports as zero but the hash rate is reporting correctly
7894  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread on: September 03, 2019, 08:47:31 PM
yes - the post was deleted by a moderator along with several other posts. when I run that version it wont go above 200mhz

spoke with seller and I will be returning the miner for a replacement, though a replacement is about 4 to 5 weeks back ordered and I will have to pay to ship it. Hoping the second unit fares better than the first - I am sure it will. I think I have only see one other case of a R606 having issues.

unless Phil is serious lol though I would hate to send him a unit he would have to replace

Quite interesting  if it fails I would be willing to swap my r606 for your r606  and run yours in my setup .

edit: one question, I did install the right USB driver right?

7895  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread on: September 03, 2019, 07:55:00 PM
ahh ok so returned. I will contact minefarmbuy - as for cooling, it is sitting in an open area on one corner of my desk room is at a constant 72 F -- my R606 runs super cool almost feels like ice when touching the casing.
7896  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread on: September 03, 2019, 06:53:08 PM
Yes, eventually it does that, the number of chips drop until it reaches zero and then it goes to "off"

so, you had the same issue? what was the resolution? was it a bad unit? I know there are not many as I have not seen anyone else now besides you that has said they had issues.

and the vendor will help? do you mean by replacing or there is a fix?
7897  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience NewPac / Terminus R606 (BM1387) Official Support Thread on: September 03, 2019, 05:03:47 PM
With as much as has been tried, it most likely is a bad machine. The BM1387 ASICs are really difficult to reliably solder with the equipment I have. Pins are sub-quarter-millimeter dimensions which means virtually zero solder, and the comparably massive belly pads can cause lift. Took us about six months of trial and error to find a stencil profile, placement method and reflow oven speed/temp profile that worked satisfactorily, but it's not perfect. It's basically an exacerbation of the same issue we had with R606, where there'd be pad contact or, at best, an unreliable solder joint, while testing that then gets disconnected once conditions change after some burn-in by the customer, resulting in dropped chips.

I'll keep making R606 and testing as strenuously as I can before releasing, but unfortunately until we start using a different, better ASIC in a new version, this is going to keep happening to a percentage of pods.

understood and to be clear this is a r606 that I have.

what I see as it slowly lowers the speed is 0: GSI 0 - peak adjust: target frequency 550mhz - > 543.75mhz

I'd guess it was frodocooper being overzealous again. That guy's been problematic since he started as a mod.

Additionally, weird your pod is dropping out. They're all tested for 12 chips and run at 550MHz at V5 or lower for 24 hours before getting sent out. Each one is tested in various ways both before and after that burn-in, meaning it gets plugged in and run for various durations at least four times.

If it refuses to operate right despite a good controller, good power and all that, talk to the seller about warranty replacement. The seller probably can give you startup and testing advice also.

Yea it runs great for 12 chips well it says (12+) for around 30 mins then it just starts dropping every few mins till it says 6 chips and 200 mhz then it goes to 0 chips.

I will talk with minefarmbuy (who I purchased it thru) I just wanted to  hear from you first.

I have tried swapping the usb cords - I wish I had a second way to power it to see if its the power brick. I gotta look around I may have a pc psu somewhere that I can try. I dont want the issue to be the unit.

edit: hmm i wonder if the brick for my Apollo will work on the R606 - time to find out Smiley

2nd edit: the Apollo psu does work for the R606 - so its up and running at 550 mhz (setting 5) started at 11:19 lets see if it can make it past 30 mins.

3rd edit: lasted 55 mins before going to zero chips

I assume you launch cgminer from the command line today? Can you try to enable the API for it by also adding something like the following command line arguments:
--api-listen --api-allow W:0/0

At this point it should be possible to point an External Miner in Awesome Miner to the IP address of the computer running cgminer.


I do not launch it from the command line - I downloaded it from the link I posted, when I open/run it, it automatically starts prompting me for pool information

This does not appear to run like any cgminer version I have used before.
As you point out, it does sound like a very custom cgminer version.

Typically you need to start Cgminer with API parameters like I suggested above in order to enable the monitoring interface (API) where Awesome Miner can connect. If you do open cmd.exe and then launch cgminer.exe with the parameters I suggested, are those simply ignored?

ok I understand i think, I created a .bat with the following command line

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://bitcoin.viabtc.com:3333 -u MoparMiningLLC.003 -p x

are you stating I should add --api-listen --api-allow W:0/0 to the end so that it is like this?

cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://bitcoin.viabtc.com:3333 -u MoparMiningLLC.003 -p x --api-listen --api-allow W:0/0


update:

I ran it with the command line above and with what you suggested, in cgminer i saw "API running in IP access mode on port 4028 (1884)"

I tried to add it to AM using the pc's IP address and with port 4028 - the "test connection" fails though.

update:

I got it to work - I had to open the port on the pc's firewall - after that it worked just fine. will pm you the API log as you requested.
