HASHNEST Discussion and Support Thread

Not to mention if it was true and Bitmain were still denying it, Moaning Sweden would have a legal right to sue for libel.

I can't see Bitmain wanting to hurt their own business.


Still looks like MS have been caught out selling lies.

There is no legal mechanisms to sue any Chinese business representative.

They are "holy cows" in biz

Well I think we all just need to watch this space.

Bitmain are going to deny it until the moment they stick it on their website

Yeah right, because Bitmain would deliberately want to discredit their "partners" wouldn't they?

Well if the Antminer S9 is coming soon, then yeh, I think they did discredit their partners although perhaps by accident. Reason below.

I have worked in companies where if you are low in the food chain, you dont get told anything until the last minute so perhaps the support people do not even know themselves that the S9 is about to be released and so that is why they answer the way they do.

Only other thing i can think of is that someone from Bitmain did not tell Mining Sweden not to advertise the S9 in any shape or form until the day that Bitmain had announced it themselves.

So Mining Sweden were told, yep the S9 is on its way and so Mining Sweden put it up on their website just like they did for S7 preorders last September.

I also think that was shady move of Mining Sweden just to bring attention of new customers.
Everyone know that Bitmain is working on new mining rigs, so I don't think they had to deny, if it will be truth.

Why do you think it was shady?

So are you telling me that if you were in the same position and you had an email from Bitmain telling you that S9 was coming out soon, you then would not advertise it on your webshop already to get some extra business?  I mean, its not uncommon for Mining Sweden to advertise pre orders as they did it last year with the S7, allowed people to preorder mining shares before the S7 came out, so there is nothing new there

Not sure what you are trying to input, but from my suggestion "shady" was coming only not correctly penetrated space of bitcoin mining infrastructire.. nothing more!

Oh it's real, the next Diff jump is freaking huge and I bet the one after that will be equally huge until people start turning off the old gear.

[daniele_83]

BitCoin price should rise to $600-700 after halving reward... an S9 should be something to think about, a good investment.

[asriloni]

When will the S9 or the 16 nm miner on sale. There were lots of talk about it early in the year. But we still do not see it.

yes but there is just remour that S9 is coming there is not official new till now any company ..so we have to hold our breath till that moment

[deadpoolx]

What a big jump in the diff!

[bapparabi]

What a big jump in the diff!

Yes there is quite very high jump in diff . but also there is also change in price

Yes, I hope it keep the level, or we'll see miners suffering.

I Guess we will be seeing the redemption period soon for the S5s with the huge diff increase

[ps_jb]

I Guess we will be seeing the redemption period soon for the S5s

Yes - finally

BTW diff increase was OK - compared to 20% we've seen recently

[ps_jb]

Finally S5 gone

Lets check pool's hashing power - S9 should be plugged in for tests

[cloh76]

S9 Anyday now

We have our page on FaceBook now! We will publish the new product at the first minute on our page, and you can leave us messages here as well.

As i understand upgrade to S7 or redeem is possible only if someone own more then 10.000 GHS. What if someone have little amount of GHS in S5?
Do i have to forget about this now?

[biggbox]

The hash prices for S9 will be damn high i supposed. I remember the high prices for S7 when it first launched. Need to wait 2-3 months for it to cool down?

yes that is correct but still not sign of s9

[keyscore44]

I also remember high price of S7 at the beginning. If they relase S9 with so high price no one will buy.. I don't think we have to wait 2 - 3 months. I expect that after 2 - 3 weeks, maybe one month price will be 20% - 30% lower.

I repeat the question: What if someone has a small amount of GHS in S5 - I should forget about it, or there is some possibility to turn it in BTC?
