My pool experience with cloud zenminer dot com

[philipma1957]

new thread link is here:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=743152.0


Note to mods this thread is in the wrong place as of July 28th. I am now mining with an antminer s-3 on the pool  and mining on btcguild along with the scrypt mining. I would think I should be in the pools section of btc/mining

this section:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=41.0

I could be wrong so no need to move the thread if you do not want to move it.

Edit Mon the 28th of July.


I added an antminer S-3 On July 28 >>>>>>>>>>    cost = $489      1 month free hosting

I added  a 27mh falcon on July 21 >>>>>>>>>>>    cost  =  $599    3 months free hosting

I started with the promo gridseed Blade on July 17th   cost = $0          Lifetime Free hosting


I ask mods to move this to mining pools in the btc section since I will be mining  with an antminer s-3.  If you want to wait until I post a screenshot of the antminer okay.

I talked with the ceo of gawminers yesterday and I agreed to try his company again.


 This is my try with his cloud.zenminer.com  option.  I am in the cloud using a gridseed blade.

this mines at mutiple pools and converts to btc.  So I feel it can belong with btc and not alt/scrypt coins as it does result in btc payout.


First full day is today.  Note yesterday was  a part day and I earned 0.00025832 BTC

 I have about  5.2 mh   mining at the clevermining choice . >>>>>>>> this number fluxes every few minutes.

 the payment should be 0.0035376 btc

I will post it when it comes..


 I will do 10 days at each  choice. They are as below.  

 1)Clevermining

 2)CoinKing

 3)NiceHash

 4)ProfitPool

 5)WafflePool







Full disclosure I talked with the ceo of gaw and told him I would run an honest fair report on this account. My cost for the account was $0.

the small 0.00025832  btc is a few hours of mining done yesterday.
 
I also put this thread  that I can edit and mod the thread..

Here is a screen shot of my account: I plan to post 1 screen shot a date updating the results.

okay I got really busy setting up my new s-3's yesterday.  but here  request to the mods.  this service is cloud based and includes both scrypt and 256 coins.

Right now I am mining with scrypt on this service.  but like cex.io this has both options .  this thread does not belong in alt coins.  I ask that you move it back to pools or speculation not alt coins.

You are the mod not me.  If you don't move it it is okay.  If you want me to mine and demo the btc part of cloud zenminer.com  in order to have this moved back to   pools or speculation please pm me.

I was given a demo gridseed blade from gawminers ceo .  He contacted me asking how to get me back as a gaw customer.   So we exchanged pm's and  I told him I would do a thread showing his pools setup.

After a day Of running my free gridseed blade. I said to myself : "self  you should put your money where you mouth is buy a miner and have it hosted."

So I made this purchase:




The miner was purchased at 800 am and by 11 pm or so was activated.

[gybigp]

Thanks for the info.  I've had some issues with GAW Miners and have been hesitant to make additional purchases.  However, I've been looking at some of their hosted offerings because of the cost of electricity where I am in Japan.  I'm extremely skeptical of purchasing equipment and leaving it with a company trusting they will be here tomorrow, next week or next year.  I had a week of free hashing a few months ago and I thought it paid out very well.  I think they called it Buy a Hash. You got a week of hash equal to the items hash rate you bought.  In my case it was a Gridseed Blade at 5.2 mhs.  I'm very interested to see how their hosting works out.

thanks I will post 1 screen shot a day with info on the 2 scrypt miners.  I am looking for a 256 miner so far they do not have one at a price I like.

when they offer an s-3 with fast activation

I think I will take it.

[reyhan12]

how did you get 3 months free hosting and 275 coupon off?

[philipma1957]

how did you get 3 months free hosting and 275 coupon off?

the free hosting is still available. the coupon was offered on this site as a stealth sale.  I will see if I can find it.


If I can not find the coupon.  there is a sale from their one miner sale site.  a gridseed blade for 199.  

  I just purchased 2 of them. 

edit still   looking for the  thread on the stealth sale .  I will look for it better.  they are still selling the gridseed blades now.

[reyhan12]

no worries. I found the thread and i think the coupon is expired. it was a 24hr sale.  . also, the 3 month free hosting has been reduced to 1 month. lucky you!

[philipma1957]

no worries. I found the thread and i think the coupon is expired. it was a 24hr sale.  . also, the 3 month free hosting has been reduced to 1 month. lucky you!

yeah I saw that and jumped on it.  the gridseed sale at 200 a unit may end up a pretty good deal.

I pulled .05 btc out of the zen account  .. so 31 usd back so far.  I will post a screen shot tonight.

It seems that gaw miners runs specials if you grab one just right they are very good prices.

[EvilPanda]

Good job, I always liked your professional approach. No trolling or childish comments just facts.
Keep it coming.

great work. can't wait to see the results

[jeezy]

Thanks for this review man. Looking forward for your summary after your tested it for quiet some time.

[damiano]

I like their pricing and the hosted option, but I would want to mine LTC instead of mining on a multipool.

[reyhan12]

yeah i check this thread twice a day for updates. great stuff.

really interested in getting a falcon. I am just waiting for another deal to happen. how many days for the .05?

[philipma1957]

yeah i check this thread twice a day for updates. great stuff.

really interested in getting a falcon. I am just waiting for another deal to happen. how many days for the .05?

here is a screen shot for all my deposits and the 2 withdrawals done so far.

so far it is doing really well.  if it keeps this pace up this will roi in  about a month.   I am doing close to .03 a day.

Now some advice for protecting yourself.

1)  move the money out of your account and into a safe wallet. Right now I am withdrawing each night.

2) Buy into the hosting  with a cc.  Most give at least 60 days protection.  I timed my purchase.  The cards Statement was July 14 I purchased July 18th.  Next statement will be Aug 14th and payment will be due on sept 8 or 9.  So I do not lay out any money. I collect  .02 to .03 vtc a day for up to 50 days before I owe payment. I am covered for 60 days if company goes bust.

This is a major reason I got more into scrypt coins over btc I can use cc and paypal to pay.  This does protect against bad companies.

[philipma1957]

made a withdrawal of .04 btc so far I pulled  out  .121btc .

 that is about 75 usd back in  4-5 days of the falcon and 6-7 days of the gridseed combined.

[reyhan12]

that's not bad. just wanna do some computations. so your total investment in zencloud mining is around $800?

[srt1234]

A free Gridseed blade, that's not bad.

[philipma1957]

that's not bad. just wanna do some computations. so your total investment in zencloud mining is around $800?

actually less  as the falcon was on a sale  so I spent  599 for it.

the gridseed was a promo  to get me to come back  as I was a big spender with them and had stopped buying from them.


so my total  spent was 599 for 32mh.   


with zero sales or deals or promos this would have been more like 999-1049. 


The thing is they are running a lot of promos. 

So if you catch  a good one so far this looks good.

[philipma1957]

quick up date I earned .023 yesterday.

 So far my earnings have been around .147 btc from July 17th to July 24th

I will post a screen shot tonight.

I have  earned a bit more then .171 btc from July 17th to July 25th.  I withdrew .171 btc so far

I will post on sunday night.  This needs to get back around 1 btc for me to break even.

[crashoveride54902]

nice a free blade lucky man, but ya pretty soon they are going to be giving this stuff away at the price drops they are doing to just sell the miners lol
