[BITMAIN]

Auction Promotion

After we shipping out the unofficial group buy units tomorrow, we will start a 24 hours auction immediately (The 3rd Round Auction) again in the auction board. The rules are similar: uniform price auction. The quantity is much more than two previous auction: 120 units; And we introduce two other rules which is good for winning bids.

Auction will last for 24 hours, in China's Wednesday.

The winning bids will be shipped out in two days: Thursday and Friday.  (Dec 5th~6th) The highest bids will be shipped out first, though the pay the same uniform price.

We use UPS shipping, and we accept only Bitcoin.

Coupon
All previous auction winners will have a 0.1BTC coupon per unit bought, and each unit can use only one coupon. for example, a forum member who has bought 3 units from us, and he bid 5 units in The 3rd Round Auction, he can save 0.3BTC in the final amount. If the same forum member only bids 2 units in The 3rd Round Auction, he saves only 0.2BTC.


Quantity Discount
And this time, the final amount will involve a quantity discount. The 3rd~5th units will have a 2.5% discount. The 6th~10th units will 5% discount. Units larger than 10 will have a 8% discount. Quantity Discount will be used after the Coupon, if both of them valid.

If there is any misunderstanding involved in the above two rules, we have the right to decide which explanation is valid.

Apparently they pull around 375W so a good single rail 600-650W Gold PSU would be my choice.

Something like EVGA SuperNova NEX 650W '80 Plus Gold' Modular Power Supply

Hi Bitmain,
it's me again, any news on USB AntMiner U1's pricing / availability?
Sorry, but I have many customers asking me daily when, when, when.  I don't want to let them down or I may loose them.

merv77 and cxboyminer, U1 is under some final testing and re-check. If we ship a usb miner with something wrong, it will make your customers even more down. From the most recent progress, we estimate that we still need one more week to solve some problem. Let's relax and let's face the reality that developing a hardware will not always be fast and smooth. To provide a product on time is kind of pressure, though much less than having taken preorder but delay the shipping. That's why we again feel so right and lucky that we did not and need not to accept the preorder money.

 If we announce U1 is ready, we will mean the U1 is stable and efficient. Price and order method will come together. Order-payment-shipping will be a super fast move, let's work together to change the business practice of mining rigs.

Advertisement again: we will auction 120 units on auction board tomorrow. See you~

could you explain this?

No Program needed. Once you set it up, it's a self-contained BTC Miner.

The miner has Web Based GUI in it..

cgminer is build in!

BITMAIN,

What program do we need to run in our computers to use AntMiner U1?

Will current copies of cgminer and bfgminer work?

Will you be providing a working miner program to download?

Thank you.

What time will the next auction start and will you provide a link?

Also the USB connector on it is custom so you can't mine on your own PC anyway.
You must use the WRT.

BITMAIN - would you consider selling an adapter to connect a USB lead to it?

Thanks Bitmain for the update, wish you luck with finding the problem and hopefully takes less than a week 
Cheers

When does the next auction start?  Or did I miss this one too.  I really must venture outside of the Custom Hardware subforum once in a while.
