L3+ only $462 - $200 coupon.
They must have a new more powerful model coming out??

Was thinking that myself.  I have a couple $420 coupons was thinking of getting some of those for next to nothing.

I  have been GPU mining for about 5 months. I am on the fence a little regarding ASICs. Both philosophically and financially.

Would the L3+ be a good way to dip my toe in the ASICs water?

Any noobie caveats for ordering and paying Bitmain?

Thanks, Frankie

Everyone mining ZEN, it looks like the miners are about to get screwed big time as more of the block reward gets diverted to shady "supernodes" and "securenodes":

I'm giving some serious think [sic] as to whether I want to continue mining this coin now.

I have been mining bitcoin only for a few years before I started to open to door the GPU (alt).

Litecoin is doing great there days. I almost bought a few L3 but I'm short in electricity at my hosting ... so i want to replace my S7 with other btc miners.

It would be nice buy with the 420$ coupon.

My opinion is yes, it should be a good idea to get an L3, they looks like way more reliable then the S9 which is the main reason i'm not going for any bitmain bitcoin miner anymore.

How loud are they if you compare them to the A741 for exemple ?

just set fan to 30%   and down clock freq from 384 to 336  pretty quiet

or set fan to 24%  and down clock freq from 384 to 306  = quiet.

they won't do a 420 coupon  but they will do a 100 or 200 coupon.

The canaan-creative domain was registered in 2013. Wonder why didn't they email using the canaan.io domain though, can't confirm if it's 100% legit.

Hard to say if it's legit or not.
I would just send Steve@Canaan.io you probably already know he's the head of sales and marketing.

I would have thought if anything you might have received an email from someone else in their sales team, or from a Canadian distributor if one ever appears.

EDIT:
I don't recognize the email address that was CC'd; it might be someone from the sales team or it was added in to provide the appearance of legitimacy.

I have spare $200 coupons which I could sell. I have 6 I wont use

I forwarded the email even higher to Jon Phillips and Xiangfu actually.

My group has more than 300 units of Avalons in Canada ~ cant afford any scamming or info phishing.

Canaan still uses the canaan-creative.com address, but it is for email and other use only.

The company website address is www.canaan.io, which we all know of course.

But of course it is always a good idea to doublecheck if you are not familiar with the sender address.

Thanks for this info.  I didn't realize they dropped the price even more.  I just ordered two more units.  I'm hoping difficulty doesn't go up too much with these low prices.  Just goes to show that they can sell these machines for so cheap and still make a profit I can only imagine how much money they make on all these miners.  I'm guessing they could probably drop the price of all their miners to this price and still make a profit.

Edit:  LTC and BTC was available as payment options again too.
