1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Bitmain Launches the New Antminer T9 Bitcoin Miner on: April 15, 2018, 04:33:46 PM
Are the T9+'s a good investment at $1500 including shipping. They same to be quite more reliable than the S9.
Not at 1500 considering they were selling for less than half that if you had a coupon, and they're still in stock direct from Bitmain. I'd suggest trying to find a coupon and buying direct from Bitmain, as they are currently going for $771 with a PSU.

I'm sorry I meant 1150$. With cost per kWh around 9cents
You're going to break even in just over a year if BTC prices hold and difficulty also holds. The latter is extremely unlikely, and because of that I would suggest against it. Difficulty's going to kill you in the long run and draw out your break even time by a lot. Coin prices may rise, but you can't count on that when mining.

Tbh i guess bch should rise by the end of summer.
If you think prices on BCH (or even BTC) are going to rise in the future, it's a better option to just buy some BCH and hold versus buying a miner and mining BCH considering your electrical costs and the cost of a T9+ for you.

I advocate for mining, but in your case buying and holding makes more sense if you think BCH will truly rise.

Thanks for your help. I'll consider my actions.

5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Antminer D3? on: December 28, 2017, 01:52:08 PM
Is the antminer d3 even worth it these days? At like 1500usd it's cheap to buy but you would have to be sure that the price of dash will only go up right?

Well from what everyone is saying it seems I have been scammed. Anybody else know anything about whatsminer.net?

I don't think so. They're just a reseller from what I see. Their prices are a tad higher than pangolinminer that's what makes me think they're a reseller.

2 months ROI with curren5 diff. if I preorder now I basically receive the miner on march it SHOULD still be profitable if not 2months ROI it will be 3months. Am I right? What do you guys think?

Hey this question is for anyone that ordered one of these miners in the US.

Im looking to pay using bank transfer/Moneygram/Western Union.

What information did you use to pay for the accounts ETC.

You can only use bank transfer for orders valued 5000 USD or more.
You need to use Bitcoin for orders with lower amount than that.

You'll get the payment information from Pangolinminer when you go through the order process with them.

You can also use paypal

whoa, 80celcius++ , from your opinion, is it a good temperature for long term survive?
New to ASIC-based miners I take it?
For a couple years now as general rule they prefer to run hot. 80C is actually rather low compared to Avalons or Bitemain's miners. They are typ 85-100C.

So you're saying the temps are OK?

Yes we are both saying temps are ok.

I think that subject has been discussed plenty now.  Cheesy

Please don't ask one more time if the temps are ok.

Ahahahahahha. Thought they were like cpus run worse when hot.

What if u put it in a portable fridge and add inlet and exhaust or only external fan on inlet. Would that work?

Nah. I only need it for one miner. Can i do it with different sound insulation or styrofoam?

So you only left the sides open? And you used insulation foam right?
