Does anyone know what an estimated difficulty increase would be like, for example how much will a d3 miner make at the end of sept how much will one make at the end of october and how long would one make after the end of november?

Don't forget the iBelink miners that are showing up in peoples hands today, and the shipment that will be going out in Oct.  Also the Innosilicon A5's that will ship in October, and now pre-order for Nov is about to open up with the A5.  Add that all to the hash that Bitmain will add in Sept, Oct, Nov...

And nobody knows the number of miners in each of these batches.  And there are very few coins that are X11 that are profitable to mine so most of that hash will be pointed at Dash.  So it is a perfect storm and going to be a nightmare.

Hmmmmm why do you think it's going to be a nightmare you don't think the D3's will perform like the calculator predicts they will perform as what do you think the average/overall profit margins will be once the first sept. batch will be relased??

They'll fix it eventually. Seems to be a manual process, and for this batch it's slower than usual. I have one Paid/Valid and one Paid/Expired now. Both were Unpaid/Expired yesterday.

[olek82]

for me its still:

Paid
Unshipped
Expired

we will see 

[Longsnowsm]

At least they are finally updating the orders to paid... They really need to invest in an actual order system.

Yeah their system is clunky but a big part of this nonsense is due to BTC network congestion. And on top of the usual mess during this last batch there was a 40+ minute block. One of my payments took more than an hour to confirm even though I put the recommended "1 block" fees.

I do remember Bitmain being much faster with order validation in the past. Maybe they're not in a hurry since this is a 3-month preorder, it's not like this is holding up shipping.

yup, same here.

i have another order, status says:

If it says "Paying" make sure you have paid the correct amount. "Paying" typically means "we have received a partial payment and are waiting for more".

LOL, put a miner under your tree for Christmas!

I'm just hoping my first AntMiner gives me ROI within a few months. November seems so far away... 😕

[makaveev]

Bought couple of units, probably was a bad a idea. Did some forward projections with last 8 weeks as a past sample size, looks like we will lucky to make 10 bucks a day when the November batch comeouts for D3

That is about what I came up with also is we will be lucky to see $10 a day out of these... And that may be a little too optimistic.  All depends on how many miners they are shipping from each of the vendors and what Bitmain is going to be shipping.  Maybe you'll catch a break if Bitmain sales choke off the sales of the other miners.  Hard to know.

I know my Baikal's are just getting destroyed already so I don't think they will continue to run for a lot longer with the way things are collapsing already.

I don't think it will be nearly that bad and I'm optimistic it will actually be much better. If I'm completely wrong and it only mined exactly $10/day indefinitely (for the sake of easy math), it would still only take 7 months (216.5 days) to reach 100% ROI @ $0.10/kWh ($2.88/day in electricity = $7.12/day profit). If that's the worst case scenario, then this seems like a REALLY good bet to me.

Sure mate because coz we all know ROI always will stays constant at 10 bucks a month and difficulty and all other factors wont reduce it. lol!

$10/day was the number that was suggested, I just ran with it. Nobody actually believes the profit per day will stay constant. I think it will actually be much better than $10/day. So do lots of other people apparently. We could all be wrong, but I prefer to be optimistic.

Full disclosure: I don't have a crystal ball.

Fair enough I see what you mean... In my high level feeling, only people making money out of this is Bitmain and the re-sellers

Let me tell you what my opinion is and for this lets take a look in the recent history no more than a year ago. So we have these S9's which at the time of arrival were making 10$/day, now with the rise of BTC-USD they still make 10$day.
When L3+ came out they were calculated at approx 35-40$day, rise of difficulty is present now and they still make the same ammount of money now as calculated in march.
So if the D3 is profitable now to a ridiculus levels i think that it still will be when we get our hands on them but 10$day is some dark dark stuff...

Also order was updated showing VALID now ... i can breath

Happy mining!

Paid but expire, its because off transfer over time limit?

Guys do you think that split of two orders will be possible?
I have ordered one D3 and one PSU in two orders. Both are in October batch. I am thinking about spliting of these two orders to be shipped together in one package.
