Any batch 1 B3 owners out there?
I received a notification from Bitmain that the partial refund for the B3 was completed however I have not received any payments to my BCH address. Anyone else having the same issue?
"Hello Customer,
Good day. We are writing to inform you that we had just completed the first round of the B3 refunds, the refund amount is 0.61228814 BCH, refund date is around 12 June, please check your wallet for it. Please feel free to contact us in case of any further clarification
Best regards, Bitmain Team"
Same here. It's been 12 hours since I got the email.

Yes, I'm a batch 1 B3 owner. Had the same email this morning and I can confirm I have now received the partial refund to the BCH address I gave them. You could try entering the BCH address you gave them here to see if the transaction is recorded on the blockchain. i'm fallowing this thread but not b3 owner...can you elaborate more.. so..batch 1 owner paid 2.6k usd (right)? and get about 530 usd partial refund Not sure what everyone else paid for their batch #1 B3 but I paid 1875 USD, minus a 350 USD coupon I received for an earlier purchase, so 1525 USD (plus shipping). I received the promised partial refund of 0.61228814 BCH (~545 USD at today's exchange rate) a couple of days ago, meaning I paid a little under $1000 USD for the B3. The refund is actually greater than it seems when you consider the BCH price drop. I only paid about 1.3 BCH for the B3 so in fact they refunded almost half of the cost. My B3 has been working almost continuously since the day it arrived about 1 month ago and has currently made about 600 BTM (roughly 300 USD, or about 0.33 BCH).

Although you may have gotten your B3 pretty quickly it wasn't Batch 1. Batch 1 started mining on May 4th. I've made over 1700 BTM since getting mine. Not saying you didn't get a better deal....

[/quote] It shows now 1875 USD. Thats the corrected price with the discount. Batch 1 actually was 2453 USD with PSU. Check how much you sent them. Also: I am Batch one buyer and made only about 500 BTM because I received mine somehow late.

That's when mine was despatched (well, the day after, 5th May). It took about a week to arrive from China though. Pretty sure it was Batch #1 ... Ordered it on 25/04/18.

Yeah, but what did you pay? Looks like I was mistaken. I was looking at the despatch email which stated I paid the equivalent of 1875 USD. The order confirmation email states that I paid the equivalent of 2453 USD (before discounts). With discounts, 1 PSU and shipping, I paid about 1.83 BCH (now about 1.2 BCH following the partial refund).

Hi Bitmain,
More GPUs are getting in. We need stronger firmware to increase the hashrate.
I suggest to start uploading a lot of emails to bitmain about New firmware. If we not, then all of us in few days can put in ours B3 straight to the bin. Got an answer from Bitmain: Thank your for your proposal and for considering Bitmain. We have forwarded this information to the right team. We will contact you if we require any additional information. Regards, Sarah Bitmain If we start sending an emails to them maybe they will take some action to realise new firmware 😎 Got another an email from bitmain: Thanks for your consultation We will consider your request about the new firmware of B3. If we make decision we will contact customers. Best Regards, Yucheng Bitmain Well, if we will keep sending email maybe soon we will have new firmware 😎

Yes, but unless bitmain included more powerful chips and decreased performance on purpose to slowly increase afterwards with firmware upgrades, I dont think we will get crazy high hashrstes. Considering chip temperatures, maybe a slight increase is still possible. But I would not bet on that.

I think he does included more powerful chips and decreased performance on purpose to slowly increase afterwards with firmware upgrades. Will see i hope those chips can do much more then what they doing now.

If Bitmain were able to release new firmware (that greatly increased hashrate) it would just push difficulty up.
Those who updated first would have higher earnings for a short while until everyone else updated, after which their earnings would likely return to levels similar to what they are now. Assuming more hashing power means greater electrical power consumption, we could actually be worse off than we are now in terms of profitability.
I think the only way that the B3's profitably is going to increase is with an increase in the price of BTM. For that to happen demand must exceed supply -- More people need to want to buy BTM or miners need to stop selling it.
