If I remember you are in Europe. I think I shipped pieces to your country but it is very costly for me to send one to you. You need find one you can pick up.
The problem in my country is customs fees. However, I have already used the ShipiTo service to receive orders from the USA, in order to pay less fees. I know few people on this side of the ocean (who give me some confidence) who are miners. And the ones I know also tend to buy from the USA. Were you available to send these parts? Even if it was via Shipito?

Is there really a Malaysia factory? I have read articles that one is used to get around trump tax.
Yes they do have a factory in Malaysia, I have personally seen some Malaysian made Antminers mostly the 17 series, which to my surprise were a lot better quality than the ones made in China. And ya those gears are subject to only 2-3% tax in the U.S if IIRC. However, ever since the 17 series, I think the vast majority of their gears are produced in mainland china. @joker_jouse, depending on what country it is, DDP shipping could be available from China/HK which would be cheaper than your regular shipping.

Few do this for Portugal. At least you have the option of including these fees at the time of purchase, but it is rarely worth doing this as you pay even more. Just to give you an idea, I pay: 23% of the amount paid for the item + 10~20€ processing fee + if the item has a value greater than 150€, I have to pay another fee that can vary between 5 ~15%. I know that around the world, there are much worse countries. But, in Europe, Portugal is one of the least "favorable" in this field. Furthermore, customs services are a bit complex, so unless it is a company that is already used to shipping to Portugal, it will do DDP. Otherwise, they rarely DDP go to Portugal.

If I was buying 50,000 new units I would insist on at least 5,000 being burn tested for two-four weeks. I would want my people to pick them at random as I would want an idea of just how shitty they are. So I have to think these are burn tested for quality control for big buyers. Is there really a Malaysia factory? I have read articles that one is used to get around trump tax. Maybe not a factory but definetly a distribution warehouse. In late 2021 we received a s19j pro from "seberang jaya industrial estate" which is in malaysia

Current Pace: 104.4559% (1957 / 1873.52 expected, 83.48 ahead) So this night we're going to have the six positive streak, looking at blocktime in the meddle of the period the second week was way faster so as I said before, we're going to start with a bit of extra momentum, probably another positive adjustment. And Bitmain is sold out, a wave of S21 bought by almost everyone from Mara to Cleanspark is going to come online in January so I'm flipping right now to wonder if the grow will ever stop till the halving. ~250+ exa this year, on path of exceeding a 100% growth, insane if we look at power requirements and cost of this, so insane that if we want those e good old days of late 2021 we need a price of 200k per coin! Quite funny, with these growth you look at a statement from Mara saying they plan on powering up already installed 4.1 exahash of gear in Garden City, TX and you're saying (at least I do) meh, seen worse, 7 Exas in UAE, keep them coming, lol! I'm out in the snow playing!

Yup, more like 24eh actually, but ya, let's say 23eh, that is 24000000th / 200th (S21 hashrate), then your math checks out, if we are talking power consumption, those are over 400MW, not counting cooling and whatnot, I find it hard to believe that 400MW came online in 2 weeks out of nowhere, the numbers don't seem to add up.

Hihi, just as we talk about saying millions of th instead of exas, we should start using nuclear reactor instead of 1000MW, we've reached some levels where numbers alone are not really telling all the picture behind this growth. It's more power than what Uganda or Jamaica are using in a year, and this is just growth and we assume the most efficient gear and no cooling for them transaction fees have been going down steadily and slowly, we are now at 38 sat/vbyte, I think we are headed back to <10 sat in just a couple of days.
We're sitting on over 140 blocks of tx with over 10sat/b in the pool, doubt it can be cleared until Sunday night early Monday morning, but the decrease will also trigger some exchnges to consolidate their dust, last time Binance dumped 40 blocks worth of tx alone, so probably it will take more than just a few days. Of course Btc going over 40k might also trigger some additional traffic, so I doubt really cheap fees are that close. Pace is just under the normal but I blame the really slow start, we had a really unlucky day on the second one, with just 131 blocks in 24 hours, so I'm still thinking 2% is easy doable. or hodl hodl hodl we may go to that 200k.
Gonna be a bumpy ride, even if I try shooting the bear in me 100 times, I still see this a little hard to achieve, too many are waiting to cash out some 2x 3x profit margins so probably 70k and 100k will be really hard psychological price levels.

Ya like for real, is it even possible for a minimum of 500MW worth of gears to go online in a few days? I just can't buy into this theory, there must be something else that we do not know, we will probably never get to understand what "was actually happening". I think, however, it is almost certain that we can't sustain this for too long, whatever game there is, will have to come to an end.

But did these machines, equivalent to 500MW, come and go, suddenly on the grid? Was this just a moment, or did it happen several times? Another question, for those of you who are more attentive, did this increase appear shortly before, the brutal increase in fees? Or were the fees already high?

a little bit after so they fired up to chase the high fees.
they backed off a bit as fees dropped a lot.

So I would say that this is some miner, perhaps with older machines, who only turns them on when there is an increase in fees. Taking the opportunity to make these machines profitable. When the fees drop, it switches off again. But, this is also a basic analysis. I asked if this increase appeared before the increase, thinking it was someone trying to make money by causing this increase in fees. And if so, it could be a way of trying to predict when fee increases would appear. Well... maybe I'm already rambling too much with the same thoughts. Look at our PMs.

But did these machines, equivalent to 500MW, come and go, suddenly on the grid? Was this just a moment, or did it happen several times? ... There isn't 500MW of miners waiting for high fees. Bitcoin blocks are random, and thus ALL calculations based on block finding have variance. Using 2016 blocks to determine each diff change is not highly accurate - so daily and weekly swings can be very high, unrelated to hash rate. Here think of it this way ... if you went out and asked 144 people who the next president would be, would you take that as knowing the answer? Yeah it's not really an accurate valid comparison, but it explains the idea that the daily 144 blocks are really no accurate representation of the world hash rate.

Yes, it's true, they are not really a worldwide representation. But that's how statistics are made. Take a sample and make a more comprehensive estimate. Of course, the data is not 100% viable, it only allows for a generalized analysis. Although numbers can be presented in many ways, and lead us to conclude what we want.

yeah all blind random luck. well we were at -16 blocks and we rallied from 38.5 to 39.5 and we are now -19 blocks.
If we wander around like this it means random theory is pretty good.
Or companies are fully on line as of last week. So plus or minus 1% is nothing.
If we now take off like mad and go to +5% it fits a pattern.
last jump we were near 0% and surged last week
so do we do this near 0% and surge due to higher prices.

Yeah it's not really an accurate valid comparison, but it explains the idea that the daily 144 blocks are really no accurate representation of the world hash rate.
Yes, it's true, they are not really a worldwide representation. But that's how statistics are made. Take a sample and make a more comprehensive estimate. Of course, the data is not 100% viable, it only allows for a generalized analysis. Although numbers can be presented in many ways, and lead us to conclude what we want. Alas, unfortunately, statistics is actually quite clear and exact. The problem is 2 fold: 1) most people don't understand it and don't have a chance in hell calculating valid information 2) you get statistics thrown at you by the media all the time that is blatantly wrong 3) yeah one extra - the ranges shown on diff estimators are all bullshit

https://newhedge.io/terminal/bitcoin/difficulty-estimatorLatest Block: 819589 (2 minutes ago) Current Pace: 99.2818% (1094 / 1101.91 expected, 7.91 behind) Previous Difficulty: 64678587803496.61 Current Difficulty: 67957790298897.88 Next Difficulty: between 67495959887426 and 67592036924124 Next Difficulty Change: between -0.6796% and -0.5382% Previous Retarget: November 25, 2023 at 7:11 PM (+5.0700%) Next Retarget (earliest): Saturday at 9:07 PM (in 6d 10h 16m 11s) Next Retarget (latest): Saturday at 9:37 PM (in 6d 10h 46m 41s) Projected Epoch Length: between 14d 1h 55m 19s and 14d 2h 25m 50s so last jump at 1000 blocks we were near 1% and finished at 5% this jump we were near -1.5 % at 1000 blocks we went right near 40k and we pick things up 🆙. If we finish out at 42k and + 5% I would not be surprised. It is not that gear comes on line that fast. a lot is clocking ability. an xp can do 110th to 160th with aftermarket controller the epic model And whatsminer m50s can do 80th to 110th economy of scale allows for a wide clocking swing 160/110 is a 44% jump 110/80 is a 37% jump no new gear just change clocks 🕰️ we know new gear does come online. but clocks can really make a change in % edit we got over 40 k and newhedge.io says we are plus "Latest Block: 819650 (13 minutes ago) Current Pace: 100.1759% (1155 / 1152.97 expected, 2.03 ahead) Previous Difficulty: 64678587803496.61 Current Difficulty: 67957790298897.88 Next Difficulty: between 68076189693234 and 68102659987159 Next Difficulty Change: between +0.1742% and +0.2132% Previous Retarget: November 25, 2023 at 7:11 PM (+5.0700%) Next Retarget (earliest): Saturday at 6:36 PM (in 5d 23h 14m 52s) Next Retarget (latest): Saturday at 6:42 PM (in 5d 23h 21m 20s) Projected Epoch Length: between 13d 23h 24m 35s and 13d 23h 31m 3s" this is and argument for clocking and it was bumped a bit. But who knows as it could be random enough we are now 22 blocks ahead. which means a clear correlation to the price and likely due to the same amount of gear with lots of clocking play.. there is a good part to this. if we shoot to 80k or 100 k we likely would run of of clocking space. and growth would slow for a bit. mean while enjoy the higher prices.
