Phil looks like banks are trying a new twist? I pulled/quoted some of the article under the link https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/negative-interest-rates-japan-germany-france-150324580.html"What if I said I wanted to borrow $100 from you and pay you back $99 five years later? Would you do it? Hell no! And yet this is exactly what’s happening right now in the banking systems of Japan, Germany, France, and other European countries. Negative interest rates — where the lender gets paid back less than they’ve loaned — now add up to 30%, (and counting), of the global tradable bond universe, according to JPMorgan (JPM). You may have seen for instance that Germany just sold the first negative yielding 30-year bond issue.In case you’re wondering, yes, this is crazy. “It’s really unusual and really distorting the global financial system,” says Torsten Slok, chief economist at Deutsche Bank Securities (DB). “I spend all my time talking about it.” This is not going to end well Negative rates are counterintuitive, unprecedented — and to my mind — mind-bendingly insane and downright scary. They are like a parallel universe where everything you’ve ever learned about finance and human behavior is turned upside down. ..." Note I was amazed to read this new twist on reality. Can you imagine buying a negative yielding 30-year bond issue? I can't but germany did  wtf? I went to the link it is nuts it states 45% of the worlds bonds are negative interest rates!! https://finance.yahoo.com/news/negative-interest-rates-japan-germany-france-150324580.html"... Exactly how big is the negative rates universe now? According to Deutsche Bank’s Slok, there’s some $15 trillion of negative yielding bonds in the world (out of a total of some $115 trillion), up from zero five years ago. All German government bonds are negative yielding now. And if you exclude the U.S., some 45% of the worlds’ bonds have negative yields. So not chicken feed. ..." Damn that is fucked up. |

Pangolin is in Hong Kong
Whatsminer.net is usa based
If you are in the states and use pangolinminer for a 1 unit order you may or may not get stuck the Trump tax. I have been told that sometimes the gear is not charged the 27.6%
I do not know anything about whatsminer.net except that it had a link with offordscott a broker here offordscott seems to be an okay reseller.

Hi,
I'm looking to expand my hdd mining system, and am looking for large hhds, can be new or used, just gotta be cheap, and willing to take BTC.
If you have anything over 2TB, i'm interested, over 4TB, more interested...
I'm in the UK, and unless your happy, safely boxing and shipping em, would prefer you to be in the Yorkshire area.
If they're 2nd hand, and/or archive drives (SMR) please be very reasonable with your expectations, they can die at any time, and are generally much much slower, noisier, and more power hungry than new drives
Give us a shout
J
I have 3.84TB SAS SSD In US, asking $800ea escrow okay Hi, Thanks for the kind offer, but i have been buying WD My Clouddrives @ £47 for the 5TB unit (when available) That price is very good. |

I have been reading these threads for years. I wanted to mention that nicehash is now migrated there is old nicehash which was the site the funds were stolen from. If you were a 2017 victim like phil was and many other have been the payback numbers are about 75% https://old.nicehash.com/miner/146UJM5kgzLVUV23CXCf33KQKHckoX1gx3this address is from phil's first page post on this thread. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5144362.0"Repayment program × Current status Original Old Balance: 0.00911800 BTC Reimbursed pending: 0.00000000 BTC Reimbursed by now: 0.00711169 BTC Still to repay: 0.00200631 BTC Disclaimer: By reimbursing of your old balance, NICEHASH d.o.o. does not, in any way or by any means, assume liability for the damages occurred because of NiceHash security breach on December 6, 2017." Thus he was paid back 0.00711169/0.00911800 =77.99% of that account. At current payment plan it will take 2 years to get remaining funds of 0.00200631 |

So Phil the two boards did 500-501 - 60 for controller and fans = 440 /2 220 a board? you wrote 230 a Board so I guess you were guessing on controller + fan numbers. will you do some more? I realize that there are a lot to test and that your particular boards may be great bad or indifferent clockers. But more info is cool to see. |
