My last months electric bill came in at $14,072.82, and that was with a temporary discount of $1,584 the co-op passed onto me.
Wouldn't it be great if they accepted BTC for that bill? No real difference besides a day or three to convert BTC to USD and get it deposited into my bank. Unless, of course, BTC had value independant of fiat. |

Bittersweet Block day for me ... what with the 14% difficulty increase and the huge selloff in the past few hours, I've now switched off all my miners as they've gone below breakeven on electricity for me.
Last two blocks averaged 110TH for me as I also had to switch a few off prior due to electrical issues.
Oh, wow... Sorry to hear. I've been kicking around some 'what to dos' myself with a potential upgrade, keep the old one running at a loss, etc. but nowhere near the scale you guys are operating on, for sure. Mine is essentially $75 more in electric each month; nothing compared to the $750 more in electric you guys are dealing with. Too bad electric companies don't accept BTC.  My last months electric bill came in at $14,072.82, and that was with a temporary discount of $1,584 the co-op passed onto me. Yikes, I don't envy that bill at all.  |

I’m somewhat screwing myself on my electric bill right now with 2 of my miners being S7’s. I could replace them with 1 S9 and have more hash with less power consumption. S7 just aren’t worth anything anymore for me to even feel like dealing with getting rid of them.

Two S5`s here (till some real hashpower arrives for me,and that being the case while the rest of my few ancient miners sit in boxes  ) so Amen to that  |

I have a storage locker with a bunch of outdated and inefficient miners (M3s, S7s, A742, etc) - if prices do go crazy again, they'll be sellable. |

Best of luck with all that volcano action. Stay safe! Ah! Thank you for the kind thought. That's on Big Island (Hawai'i Island), several hundred miles from Kaua'i. Actually, the major portion of Big Island really isn't nonfunctional, but it ain't fun, either. I've got friends (an MD with Red Cross and several who are Team Rubicon) whom have deployed to the Puna area. No one has really been injured by this event, though (well, one fellow...but we won't count that one...) Mine on...  |
To infinity and beyond...on two 741s and one of only 3...nope, make that 4...full nodes in Hawaii...on <30A. (I have other gear on the Hoth ice planet)

There will be a very short failover - failback on the UK node in about 1 hour 02:00 UTC
This will ONLY be the UK node, no others.
It will be 5 minutes at the most.
If your pool2 points to another kano.is node then you should just failover to the 2nd node then back again.
AWS has found a problem with the underlying LS hardware, so I just need to restart it and it will move off the problematic hardware.

Unfortunately, I hit a snag with my farm move. Won’t be back online until after the 8th Missing these blocks with 1PH hurts like hell now Anybody heard from SmurfBerry? Hope he's getting everything straightened out. |

The UK node restart was longer than anticipated due to the node losing it's IP address. It took 18 minutes. It's all ok now. My mistake The default AWSLS is to have a dynamic IP, so any restart loses the IP address ... oh well my mistake I guess for not knowing that in advance - but they didn't mention it when they told me I had to restart it, or mention it anywhere on the Instance creation page: you just get an instance with an normal IP address. Looks like I'm going to have to plan to restart all the nodes in the near future and change their IP addresses to static (a new IP). I'll let everyone know when I'm going to go it, it may be a week or more though until I do and of course I'll stagger them so that only one node at a time will have a transient IP when I do them all. The normal operation is to never restart them, alas when problems occur with the provider (AWS in this case) and they require me to restart a node, it will lose it's IP so there'll be another 10+ minutes of DNS change outage - so I'll plan to do that once for all nodes to switch to a static IP on restart, in the near future. |
