Been out of the Antminer game for a while but saw an article that they just released an Antminer S17, is this also an April fools joke?
Last Antminer I've heard of was the Antminer S9 and all of a sudden they skipped it down to S17. Really surprised they are still in the mining game after the failed IPO and the massive losses they suffered last year due to the BCH price crash.

Their selling of the miners specifically for BCH was a concern of mine while it was going on; imagine for the split; they picked the alt; invested; then, pumped it with their miner; then, when the time is right; dump dump dump because they have been paying bills with the BTC intake anyways. Not too far fetched... seeing how ETC went; would have made sense... tin foil hat aside. |

Gender: Attack Helicopter Yeah. That one. Definitely that one!!  On a more serious note, those of you who have flogged used hardware... I've got 14 ASUS RX 570 Expedition OC (4GB) that are gathering dust in my attic. I can't face the drudgery of selling them one by one on ebay. Does any of you know of a used hardware buyer (preferrably in or around London UK - to save on postage) that would potentially buy in bulk (if such a thing even exists)? |

I'm in pretty much the same position. Think imma just hold onto them until ETH moves to ProgPOW (if they do..) |

It seems to me that if you are engaged in the extraction of Ethereum, then today it is an unprofitable occupation. But if you look for promising new coins, you can make good money on mining. A promising coins appear quite a lot. Just recently came Veil for example!

Just an idea, could start a combined for sale listing thread -- x gpu xyz in UK from dragonmike(profile link) x gpu abc in Canada from soothaa (profile link) Could be a useful way to help people navigate more gear, thus more shareable etc |

Wow if ETH and XMR go up slightly more then I would have to dust off my GPU rigs again and power them up. Really hope this rally continues for the next few weeks or so.
Wonder what will happen to the difficulty. I am assuming if ETH gains 10% in price then the difficult will go up by at least 5%. Tons of rigs are mostly powered down instead of resold to gamers because its only been 6 months or so of low profits. So there is a good chance those people will power them up again.

The spam hackers are starting to target me for stupid crap.... if they only understood that attempting to SSH into my server from the internet gets them a full ban off my network; soooo..... yeah... I know the bots are present that regularly try to log into any seen SSH/SSHD server with a wordlist or a stolen passwords list; but my IP ban list is rather excessive now; and growing (slowly now) each day.... And it is sensitive enough that I have accidentally been banned trying to remotely login myself... there's only one specific way to do it; and I tend to forget that caveat sometimes =P Initially; I had my server take any failed attempt; and start 1000 parallel instances of 3.14159Mb pings to the other end for the next hour. two hours later; I realized how much traffic that turned into; and swapped to the perma-ban list. I think the attempts are slow enough now; that Ill turn that little puppy back on.... Just sharing to remind you: Be sure to change any default password anytime you have one: your routers, your miners; everything. Its easy to get fucked if you leave a gaping hole such as that. I wonder if im being targeted with miner usernames because of my use of this site.... idk; that's specculation. |

I think it would be better to find a mining altcoins that has asic resistance, ETH is getting slightly increasing its profit today i think it would still be better to mine in ETH  |

I'm mining UBQ because it has its own algo (ubqhash) that can't be mined with current asic miners.

Trying to figure out what I'll do with the few I have.

well you could sell them to me mine point to viabtc.com 18 units. these earn about .36 LTC a day SO 1 earns 0.02 ltc which is about 1.60-1.80 USD a day remember the power deal is zero cash ½ my coins for me so. my l3+ earn 18 x .85 = 15.30 usd a day or 460 a month. they are paid off so it is something. and I point 200 mh to tbdice on solo mining my she-256 earns about 0.022 btc a day I get ½ = 0.011 a day or 55 USD net 70 for BTC and LTC or 2100 a month. |

What would you offer for 4 L3+? We could probably scrap shipping, I could meet you somewhere off I-78. Quick glance at ebay I saw one go for $122 |

Not running Vega 56, but for a Vega 64 I get 2100 h/s with Team red miner. For a 6 card rig I get a little under 1200 W from the wall. |

Not running Vega 56, but for a Vega 64 I get 2100 h/s with Team red miner. For a 6 card rig I get a little under 1200 W from the wall. I am 1700-1800 on the Vega 56s. Total of about 7000 and the threadripper is doing 750. So 7750 and 800 watts. Pretty good. I am turning about $1.50 profit after power each day. The nice thing is stopped mining BCI with this rig but I now earn Decent interest on the 8000 BCI coins I have. No where like the old days. Dec 2017 seems so far away. |
