Bitmain Points ( A new feature, What is it) ?

[mikeywith]

Odd...
So if everyone is close to 1 point per 100$ spent, why am I closer to 0.5 per 100$ spent.

I will contact them to ask about that, and I'll try to extract all the info about those points from their customer support.

Your points are pretty confusing to be honest, i asked one of the resllers whom i trust, he got about 800 points for an order of $80,000 , so pretty much close to 0.01 points per dollar, or 1 point to $100.

I guess maybe you have some orders placed on the 29th itself, that day might not count towards the final points as it says "after 29".

Yeah, if everyone else is 1 point per 100$ just ignore my calculations for now, I will have to take another (better) look at it.

If you go into your account and click on "Sale Order" then "Shipped" to only show the shipped orders.

Then on the right hand side of the order info there is a section that says "Total order price: XXXX.XX"

Thats the total after discounts, coupons, shipping etc.

Add the ones up since 29th October and it should work out to 1 point per $100 spent.

Well it does for me.

Yeah, I just went over every single mail and order and I am exactly 1 point per 100$ as everyone else. I am not sure how I miscalculated the amount of $ spent last time...

Also, I have contacted Bitmain to check if they will give more info, but support hasn't even heard about those points, they were surprised when I showed them screenshots of it... So I guess we will have to wait.

Well good at least it is not a mistake.  I wonder what these are going to be worth.

I have 43  if they are 10 bucks a point it would be 430  which would make a new s19 more attractive.

Coins are low  8700-8800  maybe they will do a good promo for this new gear.

[favebook]

I am not sure if they are even going to have worth in $.

Bitmain and promo? Two words that I can hardly see used together in same sentence.

[philipma1957]

They gave out tens of thousands of dollars in coupons last fall and allowed paypal purchases .  Pretty much was a promo to buy gear for Oct and Nov 2019.

[favebook]

Is it still a promo if you "raise" your price to account for those coupons? Look, I might be sceptical but in my country (at least) for Black Friday, all regular prices go up and they just slash them and say it's 50%(or more) discount, while it might be 0% or something small like 5% discount compared to last month.

I am just saying that it is highly possible that they are doing just that but even more subtle as they first release gear with high price and then send out coupons and slowly lower the price to it's real value.

Dear ---------,

Thanks for your consultation!
We have not decided how to use point system yet.

Best regards,

There's an answer to all of your questions.

P.S. I bolded things I edited from their email as they are quite bad at English.

They gave me 9 points for my order of the t17+

I went from 43 to 52

It would be nice to know what I am getting and holding onto the point for.

I have a 47 dollar coupon in hand. It expires april 30

I have a t17 due to arrive on May 1

I may order another one next week.

I will go from 52 to 61 points.
