you could buy 1 or two of these cases.---- my 2 arrive on Friday I will setup a build and see how they do.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5330379.msg56774805#msg56774805




fill every other slot with a 3090 gpu like this.


Pretty cool case, eliminates the need for risers, but standard slot spacing has become obsolete.
Many cards are now 2.5, 2.75, 2.9 slots, etc. More flexible spacing would be ideal.


If you could get nvidia 3060ti fe cards you could do 12 no issues.
If you could get nvidia 3070ti fe cards you could do 12 no issues.


Since I am going for 3090 six of them  will do just about 1800 watts
and I can do 3 rigs to a 30 amp 240 volt circuit.

Thanks -- getting visas and such might be a challenge, but interesting.

I guess a smaller "farm" (50kW) would be easier to get up and running in light commerical areas (say in the US).

Okay you are USA based correct?

Yeah. I would suggest a mixed farm

A few L3+ rigs to mine LTC and Doge.

A few gpu rigs and maybe a few BTC rigs.

Go for

32.0k in gpu
 7.0k in ltc
 7.0k in btc

hold 5k for fuck ups

fill every other slot with a 3090 gpu like this.

https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4315713

and a six card rig would be close to 16k



buy a  goldshell

1️⃣Goldshell LT5 pro 2455M:  6772$

or some of these

1️⃣refurbished Antminer L3+ 504M with psu : 850$.







and maybe get a

1️⃣Avalon 1246 81T:  5545$





I have some l3+ with psu to sell


this is a typical price on ebay from a good seller 1300 or best offer which is subject to tax in the USA

https://www.ebay.com/itm/284415280395?


I can do better  with a payment in btc or ltc.

around 1050 with free shipping.

I mix mine

BTC about 1.5ph
LTC/doge now about 6.6gh
Eth about 3gh

It needs to have cooling. Fans fliters.
Moderate climate is good.
Safe from theft.
Good internet.
5 cent power or less.is really good.
220-240 volt power.
My 2 cents ... With such conditions, only Ukraine comes to my mind ... with the only difference in electricity costs 6 cents / kilowatt. In the rest, everything is as you indicated ... quite a civilized country, stable Internet, electricity supply and a very favorable climate. And if the owner of the mining equipment is ready to move to a new country, then he will be very surprised at the affordable prices for food and housing for a comfortable life.

8944  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Next bear market might not be that bearish on: August 19, 2021, 12:57:53 PM
I have been saying at least since this bullrun started that eth 2.0 will only start on the next bullrun, anybody saying eth 2.0 is coming this year or next is blatant lying, eth devs focus on hyping cycles, yeah you might listen something about devs saying eth 2.0 might come this year or next but that is only hyping and nothing real. So the truth is, they want you to keep your eth so they can push the price to a peak then they will empty their bags and then crash eth 20 times then keep eth down there and then eth 2.0 coming they will hype and earn more money. Do not be a sheep thinking eth long term, if you think long term you will not get the best of the crypto market, remember that whales dont earn money only on bullruns, they earn money on bearruns too.

This is a prediction I agree on.

They will allow POW as long as possible

ETH hash is back to all time high.

ETH mining makes a fucking fortune for AMD and Nvidia.

Slow chip production is predicted until 2023. 

all these factors suggest mine on and grow your farm very slow but steady.

Were are adding 3 more 30 amp 240 volt circuits to a gpu room.  That is about 30 x 240 x 3 =21600 watts x .8 = 17280 watts or 17.2 kwatts an hour more power.

I got 2 of these cases.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5330379.0


I will be trying to use them to make 6 card 3090 rigs. so they will use about 1800-1900 watts a case. we could add 9 of them. 3 to each new circuit.  they should do 660mh a rig.

I hold bitcoin directly, as well as put some in my retirement accounts (that don't hold bitcoin, but an ETF that claims to hold bitcoin.) If you were an institutional investor, you can't really go wrong with the funds. And if you are an individual investor, you can't go wrong with putting a little bit into your retirement accounts too. It's still best to hold bitcoin directly / physically / private keys, but a lot of people either have difficulty with that or don't understand enough to do it safely.
I agree being your own bank can be tricky and cause a lot of people to panic lose their funds but this is made easier with the hardware wallets you can get. It does not protect from sending to scammers but it does protect from most software attacks and physical theft.

Yep if you have a 401k and 10% is in a BTC mirror fund it gets the volatility effect and hopeful uppity of BTC.  With no risk of having it lost or stolen.

I have 3 PayPal accounts with about

2100 usd  in BTC
1100 usd  in BTC
 450  usd  in BTC



I have cold wallets and some exchange coins.

8946  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is $48k the next Bitcoin benchmark? on: August 19, 2021, 12:38:37 PM
The general cryptocurrency market has been exciting, with Bitcoin gaining an all-time high of $46k since may 2021 in April Bitcoin made an all-time high of above $65k before correcting down to below $30k in mid-April.
Will $48k Bitcoin price be achievable this week?

So far this has held up we crested above 48k a few times and faltered.  Nice call by the op.
8947  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will not be able to stay above 45k for ten days in a row ever again. on: August 19, 2021, 12:27:04 PM
What I mean is that it's the proven max price bitcoin can sustain under the most optimistic assumption. The real value is zero, as I have proven.

You have not proven anything. The objective value theories, which can also be applied to the stock market, are based on the difference between the real value and the price assigned by the market to the financial asset at that moment. Good analysts who know how to make good appraisals of objective values, give predictions in which the objective value and the market price tend to get closer and closer in the long term.

In your case, it is only moving away.

Actually he is correct that BTC will be zero value some time in the future. Since we humans may last only 1-5 million more years. Once we are gone BTC will be worthless. Grin

So in a way I do agree with the assessment that he has proven scientifically  that BTC will go to zero.

I just don't think it will happen in the next 200 or 300 or even 1000 years. Grin

This is a fun topic, it is definitely good that you took it over, we are going to have many of these, it will not be 50k, it will not be 55, it will not be 60 and all the way up. You know which one I am most excited about? 100K, that is a big milestone, 10k was like that, it took a while for us to get back over 10k after the 2018 bear run, that 10k was so sensitive that we had many many times that we went over it a bit and then crashed, it kept going over it a bit and crashed.

I believe same will happen to 100k as well, which is why I am so excited about the potential of it one day happening. I know it will not be tomorrow, but I know it will not be impossible in the future neither, it is going to be something that will eventually happen one day. Let's hope that it doesn't really take too long, I would love to see that before 2023 hits and that would be a good period.

Well I did not take it over. this is an homage to Proudhon he has been a bear since 2011

 
Yes, I have bought some. Because I believe it will rise much further, even in the short term.

Pffffff, I'm selling and recovering initial investments before the big crash.

this is his first "big crash reference"
8949  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: 2021, time for a new general & diff speculation thread... on: August 17, 2021, 01:13:33 PM
100 th at 30 watts a th is 3kwatts or 72 kwatts in a day round to 80

so

  3 cent 2.40
  4 cent 3.20
  5 cent 4.00
  6 cent 4.80
  7 cent 5.60
  8 cent 6.40
  9 cent 7.20
10 cent 8.00
11 cent 8.80
12 cent 9.60

and viabtc is paying 38 cents a th or $38.00 for 100th

so if 3x the diff a 10 cent mine drops to 38/3= $12.67 - 8 =  4 a day profit.

When mining sucks the squeeze is worse than that.

We saw 6 and 7 cent miners struggle with good gear.

that would mean diff could go up 4x or 38/4= $9.50 -5.60 = 3.90 a day profit for a 6 cent miner.

This means Diff growth has to 2x when I do not know maybe Jan 1 2023.

It also means diff growth of 3x is likely by Jan 1 2024.

So I predict
 Jan 1 2023 over 24 diff
 Jan 1 2024 over 40 diff

8951  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How many GPU's can I fit in 1000W PSU? on: August 16, 2021, 10:34:39 PM
Just wondering if I can fit 1 more 3070 in here or would it be squeezing it bit much? PSU RM1000X



This is an alt coin topic.

The answer is yes you can but you need to change your power setting on the 1080ti

Drop it to 60% your hash will go down to 38-40 from 44-45

but you can safely add the 3070 with over 55 hash.


I asked mods to move this to alt coins.
8952  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Can you buy 3070 this much? on: August 14, 2021, 06:39:52 PM
If it is under warranty and new it is an okay price not good.

Okay.

1000 under warranty is good.

But at 1400 in 50 days time you may get back 350-450 usd

And non lhr cards will have more value so it will start to look good.
8953  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: The new AMD Radeon Cards on: August 14, 2021, 04:32:42 PM
I heard that new AMD 6600 GPUs are damn good for mining is there anyone on here that have get themselves one ? Also can we get them for MSRP price ? If that's possible won't miners start buying those instead of over priced GPUs
I looked at the prices for these video cards in my country, in stores onga were sold for 650-700 dollars and were quickly sold out.
I'm not that AMD fanatic to pay that kind of money for a budget video card.
At the manufacturer's MSRP, this is a good buy, but video cards are not available in stores.
Probably they were bought by miners directly from the factory.
AMD priced rx6600 for 379$ msrp. What a price for entry level card Smiley 32mhs card for 379$
Comapnies got very greed

So you get 1 for 380. it uses 55 watts  does 32 mh

Lets see some math on that..

55 x 24 = 1320 watts a day make it 1.4 kwatts or $0.14 to run it.  Lets say you can squeeze it into a rig already running.

32 mh at 11.2 cents an mh = $3.58  pre power profit or $3.48 a day. 105 x 3.48 = $383.60


So fully paid in 105 days.

If you have 10 cent power
and you use viabtc at 11.2 cents an mh


It is pretty good price  one could argue 299 or less would be better price.

But on ebay the 6600 goes at

https://www.ebay.com/itm/353621477284? $615. note I do not know who the fuck the seller is but he is a low priced buy it now seller.

at 615 it takes  615/3.48= 176 days

Just woke up.  Let me figure out numbers and do the send.
Deal was done at 41,013 price seller gets 300
so 300/41,013 = 0.007315 btc I rounded up.  It needs to go to


specdro        = seller     =   31rqTRsnyYEzdK1aGtrCmz6oBoUDtvEbcs



At specdro please confirm the above btc amount and address. I will send the coin once you do that.




I agreed to accept $300 in BTC and buyer is paying for ESCROW.

My bitcoin address is

31rqTRsnyYEzdK1aGtrCmz6oBoUDtvEbcs

I will wait for the shipping address from escrow and send the tracking number. I’m paying shipping costs.


I will do this for 10 bucks I will eat the  tx fees. When I pay out. (unless they go stupidly high in the time it takes to do it.)

Seller = specdro
buyer = chillfactr


I need a refund address from the buyer.

I need a payment address from the seller.

Once I have them I will give an escrow address.

I will take BTC or LTC fees are low right now.


I hold all funds.

Ie 325 for item 10 for escrow ? for shipping.



when coins clear  from the buyer I tell  the seller to ship.at the moment I need addresses from buyer and sellerand let me know if you guys are using BTC or LTC
let me know the shipping cost.So assume funds are sent I okay seller to ship.assume gear is shipped seller give me and buyer tracking
buyer gets gear has 1 day to complain  that there is an issue. after than buyer is on his own.
  We can do this on the thread to cut down pms.Except for shipping address and tracking.
So what coin what are the addresses for buyer and seller.
I will then issue payment address.
Escrow Address will be a coinbase address so if coinbase goes fully bust I will make every to fix issue but ultimately coinbase would be responsible.
To specdro read my trust I have done this a lot. With very good success.https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;u=64507

Good uppity on price. Over 47500 and diff dropping 1%

I wouldn't count on that drop, we are still too early but my guess would be on the upside, maybe not another 7% but most likely up, it's hard to estimate difficulty while prices keep changing this much, but as it stands right now and regardless of what the price might do, from now on, we are most likely only going to go up. sadly.

yeah its early I think we shifted to +2 or +3

Still floating at 47k-48K

since diff is about  15.55 vs all 23.1 when coins were 63k

the math is:

23.1/15.55 = 1.4855


and 1.4855 x 47.5 = 70.5k

So the earnings a miner does now would be like mining a 70.56k coin back in April 2021

So while we are yet to hit 70K as a miner I am earning the equivalent of 70k+

Yeah 2021 this time it is different has a bit more truth  as each day passes.

Oh next  diff is due in 13-14 days and we are at  +4.07% which is fine with me

if we stay at this rise diff will be 16.18. far lower then the 23.1 it was when coins were 63k.
