Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the
subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The
subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Need an opinion... I bought a Antminer A3 and have been running it for a couple days, the rate of decline is pretty fast, was 330 SC per hour and 36 hours later it was at 120 SC per hour. I know the rate of decline will continue but to who knows where...
If you just bought that thing and were offered two Antminer S9's in exchange for the A3, and the S9's were only 3 weeks old. Would you do that trade? No Cash exchanged.
Fair deal, Good deal for me, or good deal for the other guy.? Just wanted some ideas. A3 made me .0205 BTC ( After exchanged SC to BTC) in 21 hours. Before I seen the rate of decay.
And of course, they would be pointed here - but don't let that influence your opinion. :-)
I have an A3. I would trade 2 S9s for the A3 if anyone wants to make the trade straight up. Please request PM follow up (only) on any sales/swaps/hosting offerings/etc |

So - a warning in advance for once (recently) about a restart  I'll be restarting the main work generator back end, in about 9 hours at 23:30 UTC Everyone will failover to their 3rd pool - yeah your 2nd pool SHOULD be another kano.is node - so you SHOULD failover to your 3rd You'll fail back pretty quickly, though ckpool takes about 5 minutes to restart properly, so it can take up to 10 minutes to fail back properly. This will affect everyone mining on every node. (It's not an update, or anything, it just needs a restart soon) Mine on |

Hadn´t really thought about the issue of all nodes going dark. Have just changed my 3rd pool to something other than kano, not saying what.  Hopefully it will get very little use. |

Well, I Did it, Took the two S9's for that A3. Have one pointed here already, and the second i have to use elsewhere to get past the .01 Threshold to get paid out on an off brand pool. Should be done in about 1.5 days, then I will bring that one to Kano as well. ( I know... i should point it here right away, but my poor GPU has been working there for EVER and it needs help to get to .01) |
