Dear all
I have spent close to 3 years on the basics of this venture, I can now categorically claim 4.5 cent per KW.
Am interested in containerised mining operation
My electricity supplier also has a suitable location in an industrial estate.
Electrical supply up 2MW.

Am looking for technical and financial partners
Realistic prices and suppliers for ASIC's, cooling, cabling and containers.
There is absolutely no legislatory and authority risk......in fact there is support for establishing a 'data centre'

any advice is welcome
free or paid (small lighting fee)
interested parties, words of encouragement, ideas, suggestions, horror stories, cautionary advice,  potential partners....please post replies here in the first instance.

thanks for your interest.

Understood on the hardware.
But if I want the power consumption numbers like 3rd party firmware, is there a way to get that on the bitmain default firmware?
thanks

I must remember this: a kiss is still a kiss, even if it's only the wicks.

Ain't no mixening going on here. They just made dee same predictening, in their own sweet (different) ways. Perhaps?


Average of 200% per year seems a little pie in the sky though. That would bring her to 50M$ in 10 years. Somehow, it seems a bit too much. Not that I would complain.


Timing matters. Reaching disgusting fuck you levels with a foot already in the grave would have little effect on the average human's happiness level.

In udder words
Hold my stash
In udder words
Baby, kiss 1M!

Thanks. That's what I was afraid of.  None of the 3070ti's or 3080ti's are marked as LHR or KL or V2,
so even the KRs and V1s are LHR. That's deceptive.

Anyone know of a list of LHR and non-LHR GPUs? There seems to be no consistency in labelling even
within a brand. There is also a lot of contradictory information about how to identify LHR.

What ETH 2.0? The earlier the better mate many people refuse to join the train years back simply because people keep talking about upcoming Ethereum PoS and oh ETH mining is coming to an end, none of that happen till this day

Use nbminer-nebutech v39.2 (think this is the latest one), you should get around 65-70 Mhs depending on the card.

So it's true that temp isn't GPU mining friendly now I believe this is true, I have RTX3060ti that mine away at 61MH with 125watt and when browsing online I saw few people using same card with just 115watt, I really care about saving energy as possible so I decided to play with the GPU, mind you temp was 60°C but after reducing power down to 120 I lost 1.5MH, I was confused but the 5watt safe is not really much and I added a small table fan this make the temp dropped to 56°C and hashrate up to 61.5MH, it seems the more cooler a card works the better? By the way it's a gigabyte 3060ti non LHR, should I just buy a permanent fan for my rig instead? Or not worth it

Hey Guys,
Quick question, is there a way on the default Bitmain firmware to get the power consumption? Maybe via the API or something?
Thanks

This year there were many different ASICs with hash rates above 2 Gigahesh, for example Linzhi Phoenix Miner, but the profit is still good.
Ordinary miners will not get these video cards, I think large companies will buy these video cards.
Vitalik promised us a POS algorithm, but it seems to me that it will be postponed again.

It's so nice for my 2nd favorite thread to be relevant again.

Go Bitcoin go.

What you mean bad ones, bad at mining or bad at warranty (EVGA all the way )

Watching this with curiosity. Since my 670gtx burned i've been considering one big card that would pay for itself (no need profit other than the card)
Highly considering 3080ti, its a new model (not mined to the ground), as i keep seeing them for 1200 euros. Would they pay for themselves or close if i mine on my spare time?
I use it like 2 or 3 hours per day. Could mine for 21H per day i guess.

Looking at all these numbers for RVN in this thread, unless one doesn't care about power efficiency, makes me think you can get more out of a 3080ti.  I'm getting ~0.19mh/watt RVN from a lowly 3060 (non ti) LHR=21.8mh/115watt software.  For me many combinations netted .15-.17mh/watt, few gave current efficiency.  

And why do you think the so-called gold market cap will crash 5 times?

First thing is that half of that so-called market cap is not in gold that stays in some vault in a bank and is in jewelry, are we going to seriously see a drop in demand for jewelry just because bitcoin is a better store of value? The cheapest engagement ring still is above 2 grams, multiply that by the population of the earth and you end up at least 3 times the gold reserves of the united states, even if we assume half of the world population is way too poor to afford one there are plenty who would compensate for an entire region of the city.

But leaving that aside, in order for gold to lose 5 times that value it would need people to massively sell it and this is just like bitcoin, if you have people who believe in the value of something it doesn't make sense for them to sell so cheaply and 5 times below the price they've bought in. And now the most important part, how are you going to convince ordinary people who don't care that much about technology that something they know has value, something they knew for a long time and something it's advertised all over the world as being of value that is less valuable than a bunch of numbers in an app? Not to mention that you can't have bitcoin plated rims, no matter how much you try.


Hihi, imagine this
People dump 50% of the shares in companies, land, houses, everything that makes wealth, and buy bitcoin with that money. What is the result? You will have half of the value in wealth and twice the value in currency. Guess where that leads to! Not a pretty place!
