Is this miner in plans at all ?

Nope, its just speculation.

At the mods I thought my joke was funny, but I understand the deletion.

At the op there is no way an s-5 will be built for many months to come.  Now if some one puts out a .2 watt miner

 the s-5 may show up as a competitor.

Builders don't need to build miners faster if they have a good miner on the market.  Once some real .2 watt gear is built something like a .25 watt s-5 will appear.

So far bitmain is really good with power efficiency, I believe they would come out S5 with 0.4 watt at least.

This is almost exactly what I said a few days before they announced the S4...lol

I'm waiting for the 10TH miners for $500 to come out.

What do you guys think, like a year from now?

count on it  when who knows but it will but will that 10TH really be all that then .

or just improve what they have now and sell more for less and make more .

There won't be an S5 available for retail sale, in my opinion. If BitMain develops an S5, they'll stock their DCs with them and if you're lucky they offer some cloudmining up for sale. But most likely it will be just another massive private mining operation.

Home mining is dead. But don't lemme stop ya'll from speculatin' & dreamin'.  

Mining is still alive with cheap electricity.  I will agree it's no longer the 3 month roi guarentee.  At one time I could be sure to be in profit at 90 days, now my calculations are going longer. I think Bitmain will continue to sell to public as it is a benefit for both, with them selling public the gear is cheaper for them as everything is in bigger quantity.

I do agree there will be a day when most are "cloud mining".  As i like hardware i hope it is still a little ways away.  Cloud mining is getting cheaper though and will continue to be more and more attractive.

nothing is ever dead till its dead and gone and we no longer here about it . how i see it . right now its not dead depends on what you term as dead  . but my thought on dead is dead and is no more .


like gold mining by some one off the streets that is truly dead . Some still try it and lose all they have etc .but home mining is it not dead in the sense of how you do it and what you want form it .


oyea  How greedy are you  ! .

I personally agree home mining is not dead.  I know I still have not switched to cloud mining.  For me personally it is still cheaper to mine with hardware, espically now that winter is so close.

Cloud mining should be more profitable then own hardware now cause they can get cheaper shipment charges, cheaper mining hardware and cheaper electricity charges due to bulk..

Are you idiots still wanting to BUY DONATE with your hard earned money ?

I would just flush mine in a toilet if i hate money that much

It is cheaper but still not as cheap for me..... find me one where you own the hardware and can get less then 10 cents per kwh.  It just is not to that point yet.

And look at some hardware such as S3 and S4 there is still no bulk discount they are selling good without it.  If you went with prisma or something you could get bulk discount.

[Muscleminer]

It should be some 6th/s unit, right ?

[notlist3d]

No, the S series goes to small miner to big

S1 small 180 ghash
s2 big  1000 ghash (or 1thash)
s3 small 440ish ghash
s4 big   2thash
c1 (middle)?) 1thash
s5 small but either 600-800?

The c1 is using their new miner but is pretty expensive (most are at launch) it may be a middle inbetween miner still for home use though.

c1 1thash (liquid cooled 2 s3 boards oc'ed)

2 C1s come pretty close to the S4 in price when you add PSU's and water kit.  The S4 is probley slightly cheaper.  If you have PSUs laying around that are 1k watts + then C1 is better deal for you.

[Dustdevels]

The S5 has been ninja announced lol ybitcoin magazine has an announcement on it and if it stands true to the add were looking at another week before they fully public announce it though it could be longer

This is very true.  Why release when you don't have to?

Um, to gain market share and push-out your competition.

But there's nothing to release because Bitmain don't have a more efficient chip yet and may never have one for sale to the public. Home mining is dead and the current generation of ASICs is probably the last that will be released to the masses.

Electric is like .22$ a kwh in sweden, they'll have a hard time if they're sticking there with their warehouses. Homemining is alive though im doing fine with my 1th at 700w & .06$/kwh but thats just me.

i dont know where you get your numbers from, i as a private household pay $0.165, if i opt for a longer contract (with higher usage), i can get it down to $0.105.

 (since im looking to buy a house, i wont be getting the cheaper option until ive bought a house)

http://issuu.com/ybitcoin/docs/ybitcoin-volume1__issue4/7?e=0/9799106

is it reliable? Would it be of S1, S3 family (small, standalone, no PSU) devices or one of S2 and S4 family?
My bet is on it being a hybrid between S3 and Prisma (AM). Maybe 1.2-1.3 TH for 1-1.1 BTC, hopefully.

[BTCish]

Does anyone even knows how much TH/s will it have ?
