My pool experience with cloud zenminer dot com

[philipma1957]

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

asic pricing for alt coins  keeps dropping . I got total of 32mh for really good prices.  better then most anyone. I still think this will profit but frankly the entire alt coin market is being hrt by asics flooding the market.  


 my 599 usd  investment  has returned .21552543btc

I withdrew 0.21 btc of it so far.






they offered an antminer S-3  deal I grabbed it right here.





and in under 3 hours I am active  see screen shot

ya i bought a war machine...first 24 period was .03 btc....hopefully it keeps getting that

ya i bought a war machine...first 24 period was .03 btc....hopefully it keeps getting that

 I did lots of math and this pool is far far far far far better then

 cex.io or cloudhashing or scrypt.cc


cex.io----------- a gh is  .0046  or 465 x .0046      2.139 btc for an antminer s-3 .   I paid 490us or .81667btc  for the s-3 on this site .  I had a coupon and  some store credit.


with no deals  the s-3 is 549 usd or .915 btc  with free hosting for a month and use of a psu .  

 this destroys cex.io price.  plus you own the s-3 and they will deliver it.  plus I used a cc  so I am safe for 60 days against fraud/


and this coupon worked on my hosted s-3  GAW25

so it took off 25 usd.  so the 549 s-3 = 524 for now.  i do not know for how long.

Thanks for doing the review.

I can confirm the deal looks great compared to other sites. Guys at GAW are working hard to build the brand and I can promise you this is just the beginning. They are constantly improving and adding new features.
If you want to influence the project just go to their forums at hashtalk.org They are open to suggestions

@OP

send me a referral link, I'm interested in trying the site out too

@OP

okay I will send a pm


I sent a referral link


I sent a link to coupons.

They are like shopping at newegg/amazon etc you need to figure the best way to get the discounts.

my antminer s-3  was 549  then a 25 dollar coupon then 35 dollars in points earned = 489  then 2% with my amex card = about 480 usd

3 hours to have it start mining …  30 days free hosting.  I can ship it to me after 30 days or have them host it at 90 cents a day.  

this is a good deal.  I earn 4900 points for buying it. At 10000 points I get 35 bucks off.

Hey , good work on this i am trying out just a fury just too see how Things are . but do they only have btc guild added to sha256 pools ?

[philipma1957]

Hey , good work on this i am trying out just a fury just too see how Things are . but do they only have btc guild added to sha256 pools ?

as of today it is still 1 choice btcguild .   they may need to do only btc guild since btcguild is USA based and zenminer/gawminer are USA based.

Not so sure what they can offer other then btcguild.

Tell you what when I get my payment tonight I will post back if there is more choice on that end. For me btcguild is ideal

I have 2 s-3's posted at btcguild at my friends office.  So I can compare my hash /btc to this hash/ btc  ..  I should always be close to 2x on my in office.

If there is a big difference  I can point it out to zen-gaw

[mrcable]

from what you have posted and what i have  seen it still shows that scypt is best Return per buck spent . and that Nice hash site is kinda good payoff if you ask me

So far the scrypt deal seems best but in the future?  for me having both is more comfortable I like to hedge my bets.

But the s-3 deal may be good for resale on ebay.  mine it 30 days  ship it to my house and then sell it.  Very tough to decide what to buy. Buying a falcon and a s-3 was just an easier choice.

I also wanted to be able to day by day compare of the two.

my earnings are below.

the .022011 btc is the falcon
the .008365 btc is the s-3  it is less since it is not a full 24 hours newly added today
the .002861 btc is the gridseed blades

I hope scrypt continues to be on top in terms of profitability as I've been focusing my attention there. Also why i follow this thread intently. 

Anyway, I believe GAW and Zen will be doing a joint promo tonight or tomorrow. The promos are good but still aren't as good as what philipma1957 got. A falcon for $500. For those that are interested, here's the link you should follow

hmm your falcon got you .022btc and my war machine gets .03btc a day...shouldn't mine be closer to double what you make? and really right now how do i know they aren't taking out hosting fee? i have no idea what it is suppose to make a day or what it is actually making you on clever for your pool?

I have been bouncing back and forth on the pools. the last day I was on nicehash.  I think .

One pool one day sucked. It was multipool it earned .0156 on the  23rd of july


I tell you what  My falcon  is on nicehash  right now.

 It reads 25.78mh  and it reads .02100517 due.

If you move your war to nicehash and keep it there .

 we can match payouts.   not tonights since we both have not been on the same pool for 24 hours.

 tomorrows  payout should be 2x for you.

 if we both stay on nicehash  for 24 hours from tonight's payout to tomorrow night's payout we have a comparison  basis.

BTW the ability to track if payout are correct has seemed a little hard.

But I will stay with nice hash and I will keep watching there numbers here:

https://www.nicehash.com/

they are paying .8961btc for   1000 mh  with the current stats for the day.   so if you check it all day and divide by your hash rate  in my case about 25.mh  you have a number to compare to
My falcon should be 1/40 of .8961 btc or .0224 btc and that was close.

I purchased the s-3 for 2 reasons
 1) I wanted some 256 hash  
2) I own 2  s-3's already pointed at btcguild.

I can see my btc earned  one my in house compared to  my earned on zencloud.

I should be close.

below is a screen shot of most of my  falcon earnings   the .08 is the partial s-3 first day the .014 is the partial first day of the falcon .  the rest are different days of the falcon it bounces a lot if the pool was lucky or unlucky.   multipool has been the worse pool.  then wafflepool.   So I do not use those two.

[/b] your first payment Is not for 24 hours it was partial![/b]  if you look at the screen shot my partial payment for the  first falcon day was .014…btc

I'm also wondering, what's it in for them

Where do they earn money?

[philipma1957]

Well do you mean the pool's like nicehash, coinking etc or do you mean  gawminers/zencloud?

The pools charge fees.

Gawminers gets your payment for the gear then after the free hosting they get a hosting fee.


ZenCloud must have a contract with both the pool and with gawminers ---  just a guess don't really know.

I mean about ZenCloud

yeah, I know about their fee

but the fee is supposed to cover their electricity costs, and the gear isn't expensive

it seems like they're doing charity

I mean I don't mind

ya it isn't expensive anymore cause nobody is buying it anymore plus it probably didn't cost anywhere near what they are selling them for to make them...

@philip my 2nd day was also .030 btc too...yes i have switched to nicehash this morning and the expected payout went to .037 vs the .030 it was at...but ya still no way of knowing if they are taking the hosting fee out right now...i guess i'll just have to wait 30 days n see if it drops...course with the amount it makes a day dropping as well that might be hard as well...oh well .06 btc made for 2 days off the 2.08 it costed...so 2.02 btc more to go

EDIT: just looked at my zenportal estimated payout== .0422 btc yep that is double...i'll take it

Thanks for the thread.  I bought a Falcon today during the sale.  Wanted the War Machine and had it in my cart but when I went to complete it, they were sold out.    Sold my 2 Blades on Ebay which actually paid for the Falcon, so definitely happy with going from 11mh to 27mh and not costing me anything.
