History

We have a large stock (hundreds) of Antminer S5 have been happily hashing in a data center that has good environmental conditions.
Each has been inspected to ensure that each ASIC and the fan are 100% operational before shipping.

Each miner upon arrival will appear like new. They will be shipping in their original packaging.

Shipping

We will ship to the continental US free of charge via Fedex Ground. Shipping out will take place every day of the week except Sunday, and excepting holidays. Make a purchase before before 3:00 PM PST and we should be able to ship it out on the same day.

Terms of Sale

These miners are guaranteed not dead on arrival and this product includes a 14 day warranty.

Note that we understand that some buyers purchase products from multiple vendors. However any returned item eligible for warranty must be the exact same item with the exact same parts as verified by serial number and seller's mark.

Pricing

$269.99 each, with up to a 10% discount for larger volume orders.

These charges are the buyer's responsibility.Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to making an offer or buying.

Most of the wording of that extract comes from my lawyer, which is simplified in some ways to help a judge understand, embellished in other ways to help our case, and on the whole leaves out the rollercoaster that made 2015 one of the most memorable of my life.

I did in fact bring my customers out of the facility in the middle of the night. That was on a Thursday, and we were locked out the next Monday.

98% of the miners I left belonged to my two largest clients, and I'd say 2% were customers I had missed.

You're free to not send miners here.

Remember, at the previous facility which experienced problems, ASICSPACE was an independent contractor which did sales and customer support. We neither owned or leased the facility.

I have LordPaco to thank for his graciousness in allowing me and my customers to escape an impossible situation, and things have been running smoothly and our customers have been happy since we made the transition.

The judge allowed us to get some remaining property we had left in the facility, the bulk of our customers were taken out as I described.

One of your loops is likely causing you a problem.
Find the problematic loop using the debug page and deactivate each asic one by one till you've found the problematic asic.

Hope this helps.

GSpgh has never sued us, he has clearly fabricated that since he can't point to any public record or post a picture of the judgement he claims he has (he could redact any of his personal identifying information).

He is right though that we had major issues during the summer. It's something that anyone who looks into us can easily discover and not something that I make attempt to hide.

Last Summer, the mine/data center owner, was an HVAC contractor/contracting group. They underestimated the amount of cfm needed to cool 2 MW.

What really brought the situation from bad to disastrous was:

1) 2015 was the hottest summer on record for Western Washington. http://www.weather.com/news/weather/news/washington-oregon-idaho-all-time-record-highs-june-2015

2) The Antminer S5 had a bug where the fan would stop spinning, but the boards would become unresponsive and lock-up, continuing to hash without any temperature control kicking in.

We had one S5 customer lose 50% of their boards due to the combination of high temperatures without safety cutoffs.

We had customers with Spondoolies miners get through the whole ordeal without losing a single unit.

We gave out over $60k of discounts to customers on account of the environmental conditions, I'm sure if we did not do that then there would be many more angry people posting here.

By the end of the summer, the situation had soured with the facility owner to the extent we were no longer comfortable working with him, and moved to LordPaco's facility in Quincy, WA.

GSpgh if he wants to disparage us has plenty of factual ways to do so without making up a story about me not paying out when I supposedly lost a lawsuit to him.

Sincerely, Robert Van Kirk

This would be a matter of the public record, if there was a judgement against me.

Care to post a picture of you have of this supposed judgement against me?

Such judgement or picture does not exist because your post is slanderous nonsense.

If anything you say is true, please provide a single iota of proof.

*crickets*

Are you going to exclusively host the miners that will be sent by us or will you be hosting self-miners which can be bought simultaneously? (just like a typical cloud-mining service)

We don't do cloud hashing at all, and have no plans to offer cloud hash at this time, and I don't see that changing for the foreseeable future. We strictly do collocation: You send us the miner: we provide power, networking, and cooling.

What if I want to terminate the service after a year or two? Will you be sending our miners back or will you be paying it's equivalent cost price? (at a reduced rate of course)

We offer flexible monthly contracts which can be broken at any time, for instance if, you'd like to sell your hardware and upgrade to a newer model. However, if you want the miner shipped back to you, you will need to pay the shipping costs.

Can we get full access to our miners' configuration, giving full freedom for users to select their convenient pools as well as setting up their payout addresses anytime?

New customers of ours get a username and password so they can login on a portal on our website. Once they've logged in, they can see a page which displays their miners' temperatures and hashrates. Each miner is represented by a rectangular tile. If you click on a tile, an authentication dialog pops up (root/root) just as if the miner was on your LAN. Once you've filled out the dialog, you can set pools and have access to all the options within the miner you normally would have access to.

Will you be live streaming our miners in order to verify if they are maintained properly? (For instance, Genesis Mining is having a 24/7 live stream of their miners here => www.lifeinsideabitcoinmine.com

I'm currently living at the datacenter, and I'd like a little privacy, haha. This is a good idea though.

In the meantime, I'm gonna watch this thread and will eventually contact you after the construction gets completed and if everything goes right.

Construction already finished on the facility that pictures are posted for early in this thread. We leased space at that data center from the data center owner, however, we were forced to move about 50 miles away to Quincy, WA this summer when the owner was not able meet the cooling demands that miners require in the Washington summer.

The Quincy site is currently fully operational and we are offering the rate of $55/kw/mo (7.5 cents/kwh) to both small and large customers.

We have 1 rated MW online today. We have plans to expand further, but the expansion is in its preliminary stage, so I don't want to comment on it now.
We are based in North Central Washington. More specifically, our 1 MW mine is in Quincy, WA, not too far from a bunch of other data centers which include Microsoft, Yahoo, and Intuit.
We are on the public power rates which can be found on the website of the PUD of the county we are based in.

You can always ship directly to us from the manufacturer. Also I've heard of some cheap hosting providers in Sweden, you ought to check them out.

Robert

You'll get remote access through a portal on our website. Once you've logged into the portal, you'll see little tiles. Each tile represents a miner and displays hashrate and temperature. If you click on the tile, you can access the miner's internal configuration page. An authentication dialog will pop up just as if you were on your local network.

If there is a mechanical problem you'd just text me or submit a ticket and we'd get it taken care of.

Right now the cooling is fabulous, but that's not saying much since it's December.

What I can say is: LordPaco has over 100kw of his own miners in the mine, unlike how in our previous facility, where the owner had none. LordPaco has a strong interest in keeping the place functional; he's not going to let his own equipment fry.

Robert

We're open right now.
Currently we're still called ASICSPACE but are considering rebranding after the issues we had at the previous facility before we moved our customer base to LordPaco's facility.

Informally we call the mine "The Coop".

Also, the empty slots you see is capacity we are currently selling at 7.5 cents/kwh ($55 per kw-month).
Hosting includes remote access to your miner through a portal on our website, and we're fully insured through Farmers.

Thanks for the encouraging words.

I am working with LordPaco and I'm very proud to be doing so.
The man is passionate about Bitcoin and mining, and he knows how to set his mind on his goals.

That calculator is a bit off.

There are 365 days in a year. With 24 hours a day that's 8760 hours in a year. Divide by the twelve months of the year and you find that there are on average 730 hours in a month.

$55 per kilowatt month, divided by 730 = 7.53 cents per kwh.

It was a large undertaking, but it definitely was the right move. I'd had enough of the situation, so when the opportunity to leave presented itself, I took it.

It took my team and about two dozen temp workers several hours to clear the space of my customer's miners and my business' property.

The move was done secretly in the night. Had the facility owner gotten word that I was going to empty the place, the doors would surely have been locked before I would have the chance to relocate my customers.

The move was rocky. I'd be lying if I said there was no downtime, but most of my customers got steep discounts in exchange.

Here's a picture of the new place:

Our customers are currently happy and we're selling at $55 per kw month.

Hi all,

I know it's been some time since I updated this thread.

We were forced to move locations due to inadequate cooling provisioned by the facility owner.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Robert

Hi Stefan,

We did have a period of network and cooling issues, but I'm glad to say that has been resolved and customers will be refunded for any downtime.

I'm working to implement some new technology to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Robert

Hi! I'm from ASICSPACE and let me add some information:

This customer's miners did receive damage, the cause is still being investigated.

Temperatures in the data center have been elevated due to record setting high temperatures over the past week, but it appears that the temperature control limits on this customers miners were set to "off".

ASICSPACE staff did not manually do any such thing, and we are working the the developer of our management software to see if is at all possible that it could have changed that setting.

We'll update this thread after our investigation.

Robert

Hi Guys,

With BTC price low, here at ASICSPACE we are having a sale on some excess capacity in the mine.

If you can bring at least 150kw, then we can get you a screaming deal on Bitcoin miner hosting.
