S9 now in pre-order on bitmain site. Price:       2100 USD 14TH We have just over 1 month and 4 days for halving, is going to be tough this will make RIO in a good time manner first few weeks mining with it will make about 0.7 to 0.8 BTC for 3 weeks mining then 1 month at 0.9 BTC after the halving. So that's 2 months month without any change in diff. Going to take at least 6 to 8 months to RIO and even then going to be tough to make in that time with diff jumps market price. Nice kit tho shame BTC is not higher in price and diff lower but meh mining's mining.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Don't forget that the last generation S7 Batch 1 shipped a MONTH late.  I'm still furious about that, as well as a B1 S7 that caught fire and was returned for warranty, only to be lost and never replaced.  Angry

I ordered about 18-19 s-7's most were for a few clients.

 got 2 s-7  batch  1s really fast   but one was the dud.   Which after 9 months of complaints I was comped the proper amonnt  for it.

My best s-7 was a batch 2 that cam late but was and still is a true star.   runs at freq 625  does 5100 gh with 0.0001 error rate and if I run it at the 575 rating it does .248 watts a gh. truly the best s-7 I got.

the others were meh. I was one of the few people to get the s-1s on time.  But I ordered in the first 10 minutes of sales.

For me  the solar array is great longterm stable cheap power but we face a  8,800-10,000 watt cap.  It is close to free power from now on.  Startup cost were borne by buysolar.  Miner cost by me.

What does it all mean for me I need efficient gear since the free power has a limit.

we ordered 2 units of s-9   and are selling off all the older miners.  I think we will not get the third and fourth s-9's until  late July.

 Just hold  the sale proceeds from the avalon6's s-7's sp20s' and s-5s.

Hmm, I lose - I NEVER expected the S9 to ship this early.

 On the otehr hand, that price is WAY high.
 Looks like I'm going with other options for a while, waiting for the inevetible price drop once competition shows up.


 The REAL loser might be Bitfury - they SHOULD have been first out of the gate on this generation, but now looks like they're going to be second at best....

I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

Well OP was party right.

...

"Anyway, my guess is 10 TH/s, 1500W (they tend to creep up with each release), two weeks before halving, and too fucking expensive."

...


It's too expensive and they did wait a long time to 'test their miner'.
There is no way you get ROI though which was to be expected too. With Bitmain having a monopoly on asic miners, it's safe to say home mining is definitely dead.

Give it 2/3 months and you will see the only miners who can mine with profit are the manufacturer themself. Home miners/ semi large miners will not be able to continue their mining operations anymore.

I agree with the price is too high. The Bitfury might already have its miners in its own farms for many  weeks.
