indeed.

I got this pm from OP - will see where it goes.

so you will order one? I give 466.50 to escrow? and add shipping once you actually ship?

if so, that is fine with me.

once received escrow would release funds to you - if this works for you, I will start a pm with OGNasty, you and myself.

dont care which shipping you use - whichever is cheaper between DHL, UPS, FEDEX

there should no issues with any laws.

that is why I provided my zip code above - you should be able to check the shipping it is a US Zip code 34669 (Florida, USA)

huh? the miner is 622 on the bitmain site - you state that you can get it for 25% off - that would be 622 * 75% which = 466.50 - are you saying that shipping brings it to 933?

per my post above -

I will take one S9 SE - they are 622 USD - you state 25% off that is 466.50 USD - tell me what final price would be to ship to 34669

So the miner is 466.50 - I need final price which includes the shipping cost so that I may set up escrow

I hear you. The wife now wants me to give up building a larger mining building on the spare lot and to build her a house instead lol I just need to convince her I need the larger mining building so I CAN build her the house lol.

looking forward to seeing pics of it at completion.

keep up the good work and progress Phil!

what is the cost?

is there a dev fee/will a percentage of the time mining be spent mining to a "donation" address?


how does this address SSH issues, if there are any?

is your code open to review to see if there are security risks to the user?

tell you what - I will bite.

you have a 1k limit so that pretty much rules out any of the upper end miners, so for a S9 SE - they are 622 USD - you state 25% off that is 466.50 USD - tell me what final price would be to ship to 34669

I know Phil stopped doing escrow - so I would say we need to escrow with @OGNasty here on the forums

please note - we have a cat 4 hurricane that is supposed to hit soon so if I am slow to respond, know that is the reason why.

how is this pertinent to this thread?

ahh yea wish I had the room for 500 miners but I do not. thanks though and glws

@TimeBits not sure if your comments were to me or to pooya87 as you quoted us both.

but  I do not buy BTC on an exchange, I mine it. As for work, I work each and every day as well. My mining company is a second job that I do in addition to my full time job. But your idea of just freely distributing BTC goes against the point of it as well. It was never intended to be used as a welfare system or charity network and to be handed out for free.

But I do agree that it will not become as mainstream as intended while these big mining farms hold the majority of it. But I also think that once all the coins are mined and all that is left is transactions that more people will be able to have it.

as for asking people - nearly everyone around here and I live in poodunk nowhere knows what Bitcoin is - though most of them dont know how to get it.

agreed - I love my ASIC's my prior comments are simply to point out that the only way to make it easier for those that cannot afford ASIC's would be to do hard forks on a regular basis making ASIC's less viable and gpu's more viable

I doubt that will ever happen and I hope to keep on mining and eventually get even more ASIC's

I think he was more or less referring to how there are corporations with thousands of miners and then linking them in a pool is working towards centralizing thst which should remain decentralized.

this is true - difficulty will drop and the amount people get will equalize out to be approx the same - the difference is that more people could be involved instead of big corporations that have 10's of thousands of ASIC's running.

I only say that forking will eliminate existing ASIC's - without regular forks though, there will just be new ASIC's made.

That being said, I use ASIC's, not a lot but I do have 20 various ASIC's atm - very small mining farm.

just hard fork btc every 3-4 months - will eliminate ASIC's as they are useless after a hard fork - they cannot adapt to the change. Some Altcoins do this as soon as a company produces an ASIC for their algo

any of these still available? do you have a MOQ? does this include the tariffs - my guess is not, but got to ask.

nice on the power consumption - mine is pulling close to 125 watts vs your 299 for 4 - shoot, with 8 you could get almost 700 mh/s for 600 watts - that beats my BWL-21 which is getting 550 mh/s for 900 watts
