1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Minimum break-even time for your rig? on: February 14, 2014, 12:47:20 PM
What did you order?

4.5 BTC = 6x Hex16B in late November, 1/6 came December, 5/6 arrived January, ROI = 2.25BTC so far, est. 0.05BTC per day (50 days more!).

5 BTC = 2x Hex8A1 in January, looks to be shipping on time, ROI = est. 0.1BTC per day (50 days+).

I earned 8.8 BTC with graphics cards. My plan to reinvest BTC into ASICs to make more BTC, is er... hopefully going to break even one day! Cheesy

Todays $500 BTC price is very cheap compared to the cost of hardware to keep up with difficulty. You have to be crazy to be a miner! Some people lose huge fortunes pre-ordering miners! I know someone who started earlier than me with GPUs who could have been a $millionaire if he had just hung on to the BTC and sold at $1000+ instead of pre-ordering with BFL!

I've never been in it for the $ though, I just want to help create a bank/debt free currency, I spend in BTC to change the world one bit at a time!  Tongue


It's nice to hear people are not in it only for the money Smiley
2  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / With new BTC value, what is your $/Gh/s requirement? on: February 13, 2014, 09:32:21 AM
Hey!

With the fall in value with BTC, what kind of dollar per GH/s prices are you looking for in bitcoin miners?
3  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Minimum break-even time for your rig? on: February 13, 2014, 09:01:31 AM
You mean maximum break-even time I would still be comfortable with? 3 months, and the hardware has to be in-stock, not pre-order.

Yeah maximum break-even time. Would you ask for a shorter break-even time for more expensive equipment?


Depends on what you are willing to spend. Antminer S1 are 1.45BTC right now, in Slush's pool (which is having crappy luck), I get .006 per block and about .02 - .05 per day depending on luck. That will put me at about 1.5 months to hit even. I wouldn't go anything than a S1 right now. Price is too good to get anything else.

Yeah at the current btc value, it's a nice price. I wonder why they aren't sold out though.

Well it was was 1 month when I ordered it, 2 months when it arrived, and 3 months since the price crash!  Cry

All the fun of the block chain! Probably cheaper to buy the coins right now than a miner.  Roll Eyes

What did you order?

Hey guys!

Still interested in buying ASIC miners even with the recent fall in bitcoin value? I'm just wondering: what would be the minimum break-even time that you would buy a bitcoin miner with?

What kind of break-even times are you looking for in your rigs?

willing to pay $30.000 for 15TH power delivered in next 45 days!
I don't care about power consumption and I'm located in Europe.
also I am dead serious about this offer.


Hi, thank you for your interest and your offer. I'm afraid the chips cost us almost $90 each and we can assume a power of 28 Gh/s per chip. So only the chips would cost us over $48 000. This is not including the cost of other hardware, production and logistics.

We can provide big rigs for $8 per Gh/s. Or perhaps for less for first customers to get things rolling.

Hello,

I am with a team that wants to produce bitcoin mining rigs. It seems people are eager to buy mining equipment, but we'd like to know what size rigs we should make. We estimate that it will take at least a month for the first rigs to come out for sale.

I would like to hear your opinions on the amount of Gh/s you want from the machine you'd buy. Also, would you care to tell me the price you are willing to pay for it? Smiley


Thank you for all responses.

Will you be making bitcoin rigs using your own design chips, or just buy chips from someone?

We would buy 25Gh/s chips and assemble them on our rig.

Hi guys, just wondering what size and cost would be the miner for you. Or would you rather have a miner less than or equal to 100Gh/s?
