Somebody needs to invent a thermostat for bitcoin miners so that they kick in once the temperatures drop too low.

that is a multiple rail pc tricky to set it up. I have purchased from them before. Ah I forgot about the multiple rail stuff. Good catch and thanks for the info! |

LOL Love the PSU clamp  yeah that test bench sees so much gear. I have to be careful I do not knock the psu's over. I have 3 clamped 2 seasonics and the evga. I think I have had more then 200,000 worth of gear run on that bench since aug of 2012. At least 1000 usb sticks 35-45 gpus' 16 s'1's 8 s-3's 50 5 chip gridseed units 25 gridseed blades 6 small r-boxes 2 new r-boxes some asic miner cubes a few asic miner tubes And quite a few mobo only pc's for the gpu rig's. and with all that mining and turnover maybe just maybe I made 10-15k since aug 2012 here are the 2 seasonics clamped with a fan on them . Knowing me I would knock the crap out of the clamps as well. I was thinking maybe some "L" brackets or something like that to hold them in place. Glad to hear that you were able to make a profit out of all that but must've been a lot of work setting things up and moving them on. That seems like the best option at this point for mining. Order newly released items. Mine with them for a week or two and then sell them right away while they are still close to their original value. That or free electricity. I'm thinking with free electricity The S1 would be better since they could be had for $50 each. I saw a post with them for $50 shipped but I think that's over now. At $50 each you could get 16 for $800 and pick up the server psu's and breakout boards as Finksy recommended. I think each one could run 2 S1s. So figure another $640 for 8 power supplies with breakout boards for 2.8 th hash or 3.2 th leaving $60 for wires but you need like 6000+ watts of electricity. Then you repeat the process trashing all the S1s when S3s are down to a reasonable price and reuse the power supplies. |

How to Send my Monero Coins to Bittrex? Need Good Instructions. I tried but just getting Unknown Command. Thanks!
In Bittrex you have to go to your XMR wallet and create a payment ID. Once you have that payment ID + the Bittrex wallet (base address) you can do the transfer. The command from simplewallet would be: transfer 0 Base_Addresss amount Payment_Id |

You could get an ASICMiner Tube for around the same price/GH no?

Good stuff, but wouldn't your start date be out like at least 7 days for the miners and the power supplies to get to you?

Can you run S1's without fans?

im starting to suspect hashnest and their promotion of a scam. 2 days and i havent recieved any free hashes . im starting to suspect its just a way to manipulate people into checking their site out since one of hasnest demands is to make a account there. is hashnest starting business with a scam right in bitmains thread? i havent recieved nothing and if you look around theres more people complaining about the same thing. bitmain can you clarify this issue please? is there anyone who got hashes from hashnest ? come forward and speak .
I'm not sure it's a scam. But it's certainly not a good idea to "invest" into. It'd be the same as me telling folks to sent me 1.6 BTC, and over the course of the next year and I'll slowly send most, but not all, of it back to you. M +1 +1 I really do not see the logic/benefit in providing that service, are we missing something? I'm guessing they have this giant farm that they used to mine for themselves. But hey BTC isn't as profitable as it used to be. So why not open a "cloud mining" solution that charges more than what we can earn in BTC mining ourselves? If nobody buys no big deal because the equipment is still mining for ourselves. If people buy fantastic! We charge them a little bit more than what we can make mining ourselves so either way win win! I suspect at least some users are buying to resell to someone less informed. ie, the money is on the trading, not on the mining. M |

Commercialization has pretty much killed mining. Manufacturers mine with their equipment for 1 - 2 months before selling it to the public. The public buys the hardware with the illusion of ROI, but I believe that the majority of people that have been burned realize this and they will stop buying new miners. Even with free electricity some of these "new" miners for sale will take years to ROI with the difficulty change. Unless the price of bitcoins skyrockets things look grim. Plus I doubt that the price of BTC will skyrocket considering these huge monster mining farms are mining and dumping their BTC daily.

I had bad experiences with GAW as well. Obviously not everybody has a bad experience otherwise they would be out of business. My latest is that they decided to take away my free GAW appreciation blizzard and free hashlet. I guess they didn't appreciate me all that much at all. I tried contacting them through their freshdesk helpdesk and the ticket has been untouched for over 4 days now.

I wonder how much this article has to do with BA deleting all the old posts.
|

|

yes but how much did they spend in hardware costs to get that hash rate and how much did the warehouse/electricity cost? |
|

Unless they are getting a fantastic price on the hardware and electricity I wonder how these things are profitable. People can barely break even on new hardware these days and that's without building a warehouse to run all the equipment.

Just wanted to let everybody know that I bought 4 units from him. I used escrow. The miners were shipped the next day and he was nice enough fast enough to get it to me before the holiday weekend so that I could start mining a few days earlier. Thanks for the excellent transaction!

Check that the power to that board is good. Chances are it's not getting enough juice.

The concept sounds interesting, but I just don't see how the zen pool can be that much more profitable than the other pools. Sure it's great now but how long can they keep up that level of return? I wish there was more transparency in it.

Honestly a "good deal" would be 1 BTC. The prices on asics are going down down down, and I even overpaid for my S3 yesterday at 375 dollars. I should have paid 250.
Yeah with current prices and difficulties buying hardware these days just doesn't seem to make sense unless you have free power. Of course I'd take it for 1 BTC though  |
