Wow! Looks like this miner might actually ROI.

I guess the ones who got the first batch are at a huge advantage.

Well I dont know about roi in btc but maybe in fiat.  Looks like holding and buying more btc served me just well.  And I'm seeing some nice gains on the diff too.  Don't see any drop anytime soon.  Congrats on those that didn't bite for batch one.  Gonna save a nice chunk of btc when they go back for sale Grin

Best regards
D57heinz

I am happy with doing both hodl and buying batch 1.

My big decision is do I sell my remaining 3.5 coins or hold hoping for 700.

Do you have a target price when to dump? My 20 S7s I just sold made me quite a few BTCs since last September. Haven't sold any except for buying some 390s and Nanos.

Well maybe bitmain miner still greyed out is a indicator that it may drop.  They looking in getting more btc. That is the goal here.  Since long term btc will continue to rise barring no catastrophes.  It's going up fast which is scary. I don't like bubbles. But I'd hate to also miss out on a huge spike.  Id say if You don't need to sell don't.  I'm regretting selling my btc that I tranferred from my eth mining last week.  Could be up another 300$ right now had I kept it in btc.  Meh can't win them all

Sold .8  for 510 after fees.  Holding 2.75 for now.

Don't really need to sell but wanted at least some sold over 600 in case of crash.
Would be nice to see it move up again.
I will sell .8 more  if it goes to 700 this week.

 I find the hardest thing about the game is taking profits Grin Grin

sell 20% now
sell 15% at 700
sell 15% at 800

not an exact science  but I sell off in bull runs in patterns like above.


my liquid btc was 3.5

I just sold .8btc at 640

I will sell   .7btc at 700

that would drop me to  2 coins.

 these were gear sales in the 540 to 580 a coin area.

Hehehe that was a good one.  Cheesy  Wink

On your strategy that's prolly wise. It may top soon here.  But hell this could just be the first of many bigger legs. Hard to say.

we were building an ascending triangle since last October (8 mo or so). This upmove is the breakout out of that triangle, so i don't know about wave count. We very well might correct here, who knows. Back in late april, i bought a few coins for an upcoming S9 purchase. S9 turned out to be overpriced in btc by 2X of what i was expecting (although I was projecting a ~10th miner, so less than 2X considering that it was 13-14Th), so i kept the coins for a nice gains so far.

Maybe in two mo i will be able to buy two S9 for these btc, as i was expecting in the first place.

EDIT: That said, those who will start mining on S9 from this Tue-Wed will enjoy the most $$ profitability (mining reward vs cost) we have seen in the last 3 years. Too bad it will last only a bit less than four weeks at this level. At current btc value I calculate $693 in revenue until halving per ea machine with $80-95 in electrical costs (at 8-10c/kwh).

Why mining is not profitable after halving?

What can be the exact reason?

One on Tuesday direct to SEG Mining.  I won't get to see it, but it will be hashing for me.  Electricity / Hosting too expensive in AZ.

I don't know whose fault it is, bitpay or bitmain, but their price is seriously lagging the actual price (666 on bitstamp or 671 on coinbase).
People with basic web programming skills should be able to connect a realtime price indicator to the website, I assume.
Right now, people would basically pay extra $50.

EDIT: they adjusted immediately after my post. Someone is reading this forum in real time, LOL...and few seconds later they greyed it out.

EDIT2: now there are some news from EU that explains the sudden surge in btc price (hint-something failed)

it is still 0.6-0.7 btc overpriced.
0.65btc/S7 X2.72 (difference in hashing)=1.77 BTC.
Add 30% for better efficiency, 2.3 btc would be fair right now, much less after halving, of course.

I'd love to buy a shiny new S9  Grin but as others have stated why jump it before the halving? Price tag is a little high. It's probable the S9 will drop in price over the next few months anyway unless difficulty and btc price have something to say otherwise....

Either way, nice work Bitmain. You've outdone yourselves on this one.
