I have one S9, currently, and an incoming L3+ that I would like to send to a host.  

This has worked well in the past and the individual I use for my other units is full.  

Does anybody have a lead or know somebody reputable or have negative experiences to share?

The ideal situation would be:
  • month-to-month
  • pay in BTC or PayPal
  • VPN access
  • positive reputation

I appreciate hearing your thoughts on the subject and potentially introducing me to someone.  I can't have these in the house.  

Thanks

It looks like all of the facilities are full, unless you want to add 100+ miners to their racks.  GigaWatt is opening more space in January.  

I'm going to rent a warehouse and put about 20 to 40 miners in it.  I may consider hosting to pay the rent on the building, but we'll see what I find.

If you're renting and setting up your own hardware, you could host 3 miners for me perhaps?

I'll have to see what the numbers look like - mostly electricity and extra switches.  It's something I'd be open to considering, but probably not for a few months at best.

I found these guys that do it. Smiley You have to call or fill out the contact form but I have 10 bitminers in their datacenter.

Does the country matters for you? Btw in this country Bitfury built great datacenter. Well, I know one man who has some free space in Bitfury's zone, he is mining and is seriously in this job. If you want ask him if he accepts your proposal. And the country I am talking about is Georgia. Here is the profile link of that man: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=71831

Newbie question:

I have a 10x10 cage and two 42U cabinets in a NYC datacenter for an existing business. We are quickly migrating most of our applications to AWS, so there is a lot of empty space in the colo facility. Would it be worth it for me to get some mining hardware in there to offset the cost of the unused space? Also, would the existing power (multiple 110v power strips per cabinet) be sufficient?

I would prefer to keep them in North America.  I think Georgia has came out favorably to crypto.  I'll check out his profile and may get back to you.

GigaWatt has a couple of openings in January, but they're are doing some weird ICO thing where they want you to pay in their tokens.  I don't really understand that I have four D3s coming next month.  I'm thinking about building out a place in the basement for about 10.  I don't want to wait until January w/ the consistent jumps in difficulty.

Do you have any miners with the individual in Georgia?

If you run 110, you'll need to get an ATX power supply.  The ASIC PSUs are designed for 220.

I've looked into rented space in a data center and I've found it wouldn't be cost-effective, but if you already have the space ... it could work out.  The biggest additional expense would be the electricity.

Hi

We have 1 Megawatt capacity (around 700 machines) in the largest Tier 3 Data center in Iceland which is very secure and safe.

If any of you wants to have space to host their miners, get in touch with me in Whatsapp +44 7452718805 or ajay at sweans.com

Because of high demand, this will be sold out soon. For questions contact me asap. For VAT and import and hosting things.

Ajay

I'm going to rent a warehouse.  I may have some extra space to colocate a few miners. I'm looking for a place now and will need to build it out. The goal is to have it up and running by the end of April/May.  Let me know if anybody is interested.  If I do end up hosting, it'd be 8.3c KW/h and $50 per month.  This would help cover the extra upfront costs and additional insurance. 

I'll post more information as it develops.

It doesn't work for me to send, either ...

Do you have a miner you're interested in having hosted?

Anyone out there that is co-hosting at a location mind sharing the prices they are paying?  and current state they are in?

I've looked at a few links on here and prices seem pretty high in compared to what you would mine (service charge of $100 plus, not counting power/etc). 

Thanks

Thanks. That looks close to what I've seen.  

I'm working on plans to host miners and I've been thinking about either charging $50 per month, plus 8.4c kW/h for energy or $100 per month in mineral oil. It's the same price, but one is greener.  I don't know if people would like their chips in a bath, though.

Are people even expanding their machine base these days?

Not sure.  I had similar thoughts as you.  $50 a month and between 7-9c per kwh.  I've been talking with the power company figuring out how they charge commercial rates vs residential and have learned some things along the way.  There is a sweet spot for pricing but I don't have enough miners to cover it myself yet but it's still cheaper than residential during the summer.

I'm not going the mineral oil way, that sounds like a pain  Wink

Utah rates are 14.5c per KWH during the summer, maybe people would consider moving away at that point, that's a huge expense vs paying <9c and a small service fee or something.
