Bitmain Announces the Antminer R4 and APW5 Power Supply, Designed for Silence

[philipma1957]

Dear Bitcoiners

Yes, its true that we are launching the second batch of the Antminer R4 today.

Please don't forget to adjust the BTC exchange rate  

A )  741 vs 774  please at least try to be closer
B ) I just spent a fortune on some Avalon 721's So if you were to sell the R4 at a good price you could rack up.
C ) I could buy 1 or 2 R4's so a nice price would help
D ) I call them as I see them so this gear may be a nice item if you drop price a bit or offer better warranty.

Is this going to happen or is everyone just going to pay an extra $55 for their R4?

Yeah that exchange rate is horrible right now.

To those who have an R4. Is it reliable? Or same issues as the S9?

If it is reliable I might get 6 units.

I was hoping they were more reasonably priced...

But apparently they have plenty of buyers at this price point, so what do i know.   lol

[dogjunior]

They are going for $2000 on eBay. So buy two and sell one, you got yourself a free miner. That's my plan.

[HagssFIN]

The batch 2 is sold out already, it only took like 45 minutes.

[dogjunior]

WOW that was fast. No more for sale. DOH. Decided on another one and now my cart says not enough R4's left.

[HagssFIN]

Now it is for sale again, most likely some orders expired or something.
I'm little worried since my payment has not confirmed yet.

I guess I barely got my order for 3 in just in time.

Glad I set my alarm for this one. Mine will go to my friends office where he has free power and we already have some almost silent power supplies. If these are as quiet as they say it will be no problem to run them there, and we should make a small profit over time. Were not in the R4 for the big bucks, just enough to cover costs and get something back. Hopefully BTC will keep going up over the next few months. I don't think its going down.

I really hope Bitmain keeps these new batches this small so the diff stays low for a while. Im actually glad it sold out so quick, but only cause I got what I wanted first.

Does Eastshore accept Bitcoins?

are there any trusted retailers that do accept bitcoins?

I answer to myself  
Bitmain does say in the e-mail that "If your payment is submitted on time but receipt is delayed, we will confirm the payment and then update the order to "Valid" ".

So I hope I'm still all good.

I have two in my home. They are very quiet.

[ZymurBits]

And they're sold out again!  Guess I need to be quicker on the draw.

[VRobb]

Traveling today, just landed, and got my order in.  Luck and Timing are everything!

I didn't want to play games with the order stock, so I paid and then put a note in with my order showing the current exchange rate and an address they can refund for the overpayment.  Not that they will, but at least I tried to get my $55 back.
