1 TH/S dragon miner. Has anyone tried it more than 24 hours?

[greenalliancegroup]

Hi everyone

I was wondering if anyone had any experience of running the 1 TH/S dragon miner for long periods of time longer than an 24 hour. Is it worth the buy. Thanks

The 1 TH/S dragon miner seems a good buy for the price.

at $5,999 is juts not a good deal compared to all the 2 Th/s unit coming out in the next 45 to 60 days

My sample unit has been running 2 weeks without a problem.

I love the "coming out in the next 60 days" thing. Does that mean this summer?

Bobsag3 have you tried to overclock it? Or is it voltage locked?

If I can find it for better price than 5,999$ would anyone be interested in purchasing at that point. All the prices are overkill. Thanks

I am planning to get a whole slew of them. I might be able to talk them down from pricing.

[jjj0923]

it's kind of a toss up to me...

wait for black arrow 2 ths box...

invest in more bitmain s1's which give more bang for the buck costwise than the  dragon miner and if one fail I'm not out of business...

decisions, decisions...

It sounds like you have made the decision !

Chinese have been mining on 28nm since January!
Cheapest I've seen it is this...

1TH / 880W = 19999 Yuan = $3255 USD!

I am actually in the process of finding the factory that is going to make the 1 TH/S dragon miner. Would anyone want the miner if I can find it for around 4000-4500?

I feel we miners got to stick together.

I have contacted the manufacture, you can buy the dragon at around 5000 USD+Shipping from China.
If you guys are interested, I can probably arrange a pre-order.
However, I personally don't understand why so many people are still mining BTC?  Scrypt mining is way better in any perspective.

About to hit day 4 and my unit that arrived on Friday is still running at 1Th/s without any hiccups and less than 0.2% HW on BTCGuild.

[greenalliancegroup]

Nice. Its good to hear about those miners running well. I am planning to find the factory and do a group order. I plan to be very transparent with the numbers.

Is anyone interested. Please PM me. Thanks

This 1TH/s miner is using illegal fake A1 Coincraft ASIC based miner produced in China. They are being sold on the black market in China illegally and without Bitmine's permission: http://bitmine.ch/?p=5178

IF YOU PURCHASE THIS MINER THEN YOU ARE PURCHASING COUNTERFEIT HARDWARE AND IN MOST Countries that is considered illegal. Just trying to warn people because we have spent a lot of money on genuine A1 Coincraft chips that we purchased directly from Bitmine at the end of January and we know how much they cost. There is NO WAY that the ones being sold in China for around $4000/miner are legit. It is ruining the Mining difficulty for everyone else for people in China to be stealing Bitmine's intellectual property and selling it for less than the bulk price directly from Bitmine.ch

There is no guarantee that those chips will perform to Bitmine's standards and they are definitely NOT real A1 ASIC chips. Check the price on Bitmine's website yourself for purchasing 500 chips. Their pricing is $43,750 for 500 chips which comes out to be $87.50/chip

How can people in China afford to sell 1TH/s Bitmine A1 Coincraft based miners with 40 chips per miner running between 25-30GH/s per chip for only $4,200 to 5,000? The 40 chips alone cost $3,500 (40*$87.50=$3,500)

This $3,500 bulk purchase cost of the 40 A1's from Bitmine does not include the cost of manufacturing PCB's, cases and the rest of the parts for PSU's, cooling, Raspberry Pi, etc...

The math does not add up so I would be VERY CAREFUL of buying those illegally produced A1 chips! It is like purchasing a fake iPhone. It may work for a little while but it is not the same quality as the real thing. Help stop this criminal activity by boycotting the sale of these fake A1 Coincraft chips from China.

I can't speak of the Dragon miner, though ours seem to have come from the same factory. Ours have an English interface however and different branding too.

We've had some from the first batch running on-stop since the 10th of March. No issues at all.

If you'd like one from a reputable vendor you can purchase here - 28nm 1TH/s Bitcoin Miner $4,999USD + shipping. The second batch is due to arrive on the 18th and dispatch the 21st.

Edit: In case anyone is wondering our cost price does not even come close to having a 3 at the beginning

*YAWN like that ever stopped anyone in the bitcoin world before...

Oh wait thats what Yifu did to all us Avalon Batch 2/3 guys.  Chips just disappear out the back door and all of a sudden "delays" turn a 100BTC investment into a 60BTC return...  Hate to say it but most likely those chips are the exact same ones as the CoinCraft A1 and the fact that Bitmine.ch has a backlog they are working through when these chips are just available on the market just shows how inept and/or corrupt they are.  Avalon ran 3-4months late, I haven't been keeping track what month of deliveries has Bitmine caught up to now?

Sorry but 1TH should be $2500 by now, my cheap ANTMiners I got in the first 1.45BTC batch make me wish Bitmain would have continued his historical price drop "curve" - heck I wouldn't pay more than what bitmain sells ANTS for these days which is 0.98BTC for a 200GH rig.  So basically $3200 tops but really under $3K I would bite.  Everything else just seems "meh".
