Ah, I usually edit out most of the quotes but I'm lazy yesterday. The key to building a mining farm is to not pay high power rates. If you can't get less than .05$/kwh then you might have to wait for the next halfing or do microtrading to properly receive your ROI. I think upgrading your miners to more efficient beasts is the next logical step after you reach your maximum power consumption. Fuzzy, you should store a few from your growing pile of s7's at my place . I've 4-6kwh unallocated at the moment.

Finally, something missing from all of the "ROI" calculators oft mention in the Forum: The plain and simple fact that since here in the USA the IRS wants a piece of ALL BTC you convert to Fiat be it reported as Personal Income (and subject to Capital Gains Rules if earned from Trading) or reported as mining business + folks keep talking about ROI then treat the cost of miner like the business expense it is! From a business perspective a miner is the same thing as an office PC and for Tax purposes is a business expense/writeoff. Last I recall the full amount can be written off in 3-years. Yes is a long time in Miner Years but - I have s7's still making money and some are from day-1 they were available so...
If you plan to sell off your miners (I've eventually done so on ALL of the ASIC I've owned that I'm not currrently running, as well as many of my computers, and plan to do so on my A2s eventually), you can legitimately treat the miners themselves as "inventory" - makes them MUCH easier to deal with on a tax basis and is arguably MORE accurate how their drop in value over time ends up impacting a business.

At this time, Caanan is the only place to order the A721.
That will probably change in a month or less as resellers start getting ahold of some to sell (for more of course).

Sounds like you can buy directly from Canaan.io with Paypal, credit card or bank transfer (Once the ordering goes live)

True. Checked Kano a few sec ago and it shows canaan (Avalon) is running 2,089.15THs vs their normal ~250-300THs so they are um, still "testing"?
