You might as well add sidehack to this, considering how he's opened up sales for his usb miner!
Or not. It's your list, after all.
I'll consider it. If I do update this then a number of companies will come off or go to some other list as they've been dormant too long / closed. After Yiazo (which is one of those), the next smallest company does a few $M turnover. |

Overall I would actually still gain if we did show untrusted.
That's two different things, counting all ratings as trusted, and 'showing' all ratings by default. |
|
|

Most untrusted feedback is garbage, and any serious scam accusation can very quickly be forwarded to someone with DefaultTrust rating ability. Have a look at my untrusted feedback, I have 100's of negatives from the BFL 'trust competition' and about 20 more from a permabanned guy onto his 12th account. Yes, I never trust the untrusted trust by default, I check the reference and see who its by. The main point we are trying to raise here, is that someone might be scammed because there was a warning that they are scammer, but it was in the untrusted feedback, so they couldn't see it. And it was too little time for the news of them being scammed to propagate to a default trust user. None of this affects me at all, but I guess it would make scams a tiny bit harder to pull off. Actually quite the opposite would happen and more scams would occur. Dogie is right in this case. Legit users usually only have one or two accounts while scammers tend to have tens. Let's say that person X gave the potential scammer a negative rating; the potential scammer uses his other accounts to overwrite it by leaving 10 positive ratings. Since all feedback is considered as trusted, the potential scammer would look like a trusted person. Doing this we would effectively enable all sorts of manipulation related to the trust. Trusted members would go into the red zone pretty quickly for various reasons. It would only be a matter of time before trust ransoming became a thing. "Give me btc or my network of accounts will spam you." |

Untrusted feedback should DEFINITELY be shown by default, however not in the trust rating you see next to your profile picture on the posts you make.
Untrusted feedback should be taken a little less seriously, however having it hidden by default just makes it potentially less chance of seeing they are a scammer. Untrusted people (like me) may leave a trust rating, with solid proof that they are a scammer, but people who do not have "show untrusted feedback" on, will not see it and continue deal with that user and might get scammed.

So maybe the "mass production" in the title isn't quite accurate, or only for small values of "mass"?
While it's interesting to watch, it seems unlikely that SFARDS is going to change things much given the prices they charge, and the small scope of "mass production", at least at the moment.
Well it probably means the chips are (and have been) in mass production, but there is still a delay until chips -> machines. |

Dogie, it wasn't directed at you. I know you can only comment on what's allowed or known. But one thing you can help with is getting better clarification on this psu for us. I've contacted support but there answers are vague and I'm left back where I started. This is what you are here to help with since you can put it in terms we understand not operator answers like "It should work, just buy it and see".
I'm not contracted by Bitmain any more, so I'm in the queue for information with the rest of you. Contact their support through a ticket: https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-usThey can help you get the PSU for the S4. This psu they are selling is a good psu, but requires OVER 110 electricity. So if you are running 110 yes you need a different PSU then the one this thread is for. @notlist3d - Have you tried anything from the link you posted? Seems like a dead site unused for months. Maybe Dogie can agree, is Zendesk an old site and should all correspondence be through Bitmain's main site? Zendesk is the US team, Bitmain site is the CN team, although US team usually takes the tickets from the Bitmain site and actions them via Zendesk. Go to Zendesk. |

"expected to start shipping next week" (weibo). Could just not have listed stock yet - keep an eye on it (as I know you will)  [Speculation] Was probably a tiny batch using test chips, so now a small gap until proper chip batches come through. |

It would be nice if Bitmain could review their own threads and answer some above questions asked. You would probably get more sales that way.
Can you answer these questions above please.
Just for the record this isn't me you're waiting on, Bitmain replies will come from the BitmainWarranty account. There are a lot of threads though so they may not be checking all of them on an hourly basis. My information regarding the APW3 is also from release time so things may change. How about you or Bitmain comment on the S2 upgrade kit? That's up to Bitmain. |

Innosilicon was the first company to produce a 28nm Asic
Are you sure? The Innosilicon press releases were dated around mid April 2014, where as the KNCMiner Jupiter was shipping in October 2013. |

I could not find anything to suggest they ever finished development on the L1, but maybe you have some info I am unaware of.
Just like you can not find anything about the S:Next-one, they are self mining with the L1 ...... So basically a free loan from pre-orders to get things rolling Nice racket Did you say racket? You ain't seen nothing yet! What with all the disgruntled ex-employees tossing a fair amount of the brown-stuff about, its bound to get more interesting ..... just keep your eyes peeled! Don't know if I would want to keep my eyes peeled in the middle of a sh!t show but I do think the second they cut doggie from the payroll we will have a lot more information. Something tells me Doggie knows a lot about his Bitmain partners. Even if he does know a lot about partners he no doubt signed a NDA. So he will not be passing on information such as partners. I could be wrong. But I just don't see Dogie breaking his NDA, and I'm guessing he signed one with Bitmain I do not know for a fact. I do have an NDA with Bitmain, and although it allows me to make disclosures under good will its still an NDA. However there aren't any conspiracies to whistle-blow on, its pretty mundane in Bitmain land  . Why do you suggest the L1 didn't exist? It did.
Show us a picture of them They existed in the sense that they were ready for production, but order numbers were too low for it to make sense for anyone to go ahead with it. It was cheaper to pay the customers much better than they would have with the L1 than to make them. While it might have been a different story if Litecoin didn't nosedive, the project was pulled and the design shelved. My comments were in reference to the L1 being compared to a piece of preorder vapourware. Yes the L1 should never have been preordered (and if they did it today it wouldn't be), but no it wasn't vapourware. |

BTW: Has anybody got a spare PSU for an SP10 for sale?
Later Edit: A capacitor exploded and caught fire.  Not sure if I can power this board up any more as it might have shorts in that hole .. The top board looks fine though ... the heatsink is black a little, but I guess the rest is ok. Would an exploded capacitor be dealt with by SPT? This is how it works with the top board only. There was no dust to dust off after 16 months of operation. Awesome design. It is funny that the 12V power to the hashing boards comes through 2 screws and it needs the bottom board distancers to screw in (nut). Some crazy glue and two regular nuts did it instead. SP5 confirmed? |

If he was at least on default trust that would be enough, i find it quite weird that no one on the default trust has him on their list, i mean there are plenty of default trust people that have like 10 sent feedbacks and thats about it, arent they wasting their power?
He previously was, but it only takes one dedicated scammer to spam anyone with him in their trust list to have him removed. Because it works. |

Final specs and price: The miner is 1.72T sha-256, 54M scrypt, 970W power consumption. The price is RMB 8000 Yuan, namely 1290 USD. Way overpriced for a miner that will produce a total of ~ 100-150USD profit after power cost and litecoin halving. Would take nearly a year to ROI lol. Even at half the price it would barely be worth it. Yeah I could justify 400 MAYBE 500 max, but 1200$ no thanks Sfards, litecoin doesn't give me enough faith to throw so much more money in a mining machine like this. I can't rationalize this pricing at all. Why would ANYONE want to purchase this at that pricing ? Major mining farms included. It doesn't make any sense. Its been said many times before but not everyone pays the same electricity prices. |

S5 is sold out...
S4+ is sold out...
Please wait the official announcement for any new hardware.
At the moment, U3 is the only miners in stock
A picture says a thousand words ..... button for S5 is active, ditto the price hike  The S4+ is still sold out. Guess they found some more S5's. Interesting post shows a disconnect somewhere in communication. Did not expect to see more S5's after post. Maybe they will post to explain? Sales are set by the CN team and its probably the US team manning the BitmainWarranty account. Plans do change. |

Some of you want to see us publish evidence, sure, that is why we came out and stated that we have them ready to help any legal case for the court of the law. Due to confidential nature, our legal department is not yet ready to send all the signed contract to the open forum for outsider's viewing pleasure. Afterall, some of you are not trial judge here and we are not under any legal obligation to disclose legal contract to the open forum to prove our innocence. We don't need to. However, if you have a legal case pending our help (or anyone want to visit our office to read them), you are welcome to ask your lawyer to contact us for our evidence assistance. We have evidence behind everything I say here and we want you to know that.
Again, thank you for your interest and opinions.
Joey
For the record, I offered to look over some of the documents and verify 1) their existence and 2) their contents, under NDA if required. |

Hi, With the summer hotness I was tired of continuously adjusting my S5 frequency, so I decided myself to dive into shell coding and wrote a small script to do it automatically. I'm pretty happy with what I got: every 20 minutes the script checks the temp sensors, increase or decrease the frequency and restarts cgminer. Thus I keep the temp between 58 and 62 °C at all time. If you're interested you can download the script on github: https://github.com/kmitz/Regul Installation notes are on my blog: https://jomcflyatwork.wordpress.com/ You can ask me questions in this thread or PM me for help. Cheers! NB: If you worry about my script stealing all your coins, just check the script, it's only 40 lines and very straightforward: 1)read temp 2)write new frequency in /config/cgminer.conf 3)restart cgminer You may want to disable variable fan control if you haven't already, if it gets cool enough your 3 variables will keep flip flopping. |
