In any business there are 2 options: whine and whine because you can't get in; or fucking get in and shut the fuck up.
This! It's unbelievable to see people thinking they deserve the S5 at a certain price. Until you buy it, it's Bitmain property. They can put the price they want. Either accept the price (And buy) or don't. No need to whine. here we go again another TROLL. |

I would think they are trying updating from every version, multiple batch versions of controller and parts. I could see reasons a firmware could take a while with testing. |

And price is now: Price: 439 USD ( 1.474 BTC ) Up almost 100 dollars within a week. Yikes  Hope this means we will continue to see lots of btc rising in value. *Also I should say for lack of a better term "I have no dog in this fight". I'm not here to lecture Bitmain on how to price items, or start argument. Just stating how it did go up to document price as of right now. |

I could not find an explanation on that price increase.
It really sucks.

I like bitmain hardware, so I will give only one of the two theories I have. Theory 1 is they really have not raised it much in BTC they were just adjusting mainly for BTC value. The amount of btc will not be the difference in most peoples final ROI. But they did adjust to current BTC price. It was this adjustment to current price that just shot it up like a rocket. |

Tell me... what other miner can you buy that reaches might ROI under a year?
FTFY. If your electricity costs can't let you ROI under a year, blame your utility company, not the device manufacturer. We do not all have the benefit of living in a despotic banana republic where energy costs to the consumer are no where near the cost of energy production. I am also pretty sure the uptake of bitcoin (or crypto-currencies) in such countries is no where near to that in the countries that have utility companies supplying energy at realistic market values ..... I think that alone qualifies any so called whining (let alone that this is a public forum). |

I bet you (and I know their last one was less than a day ago), but if the BTC rate hovers over $300 and looks like holding there, then there will be another price hike today. |

If you are not on either side of the fence, by definition you are bang on the fence (and after a while, it must hurt)! Also I believe you'll find that you speak just as loud with your money if you purchase old hardware ..... but I stand to be corrected on that last one. |

This is my last comment I don't want to get trolled. And you are pushing it off topic. I on almost all gear have bought new so yes I spoke with my money to many manufactures. Yes Bitmain is one of them, yes on multiple models. The fence definition is a stupid one. You are using it to troll and stir up this thread even more. |

Its called "preparing the field" for the next crop of S7 If you can push up the price of the old hardware, then you can "Justify" the massive cost of the "next Product" My forecast fwifw:- The S7 will enter at $700 (3BTC) and the S5 will drop to $300 |

The fence definition is a stupid one. You are using it to troll and stir up this thread even more. I concur this may be getting a touch off-topic, but the fence definition is spot on in any language culture you choose to define it, and you are sat right on top of it (thus it must hurt after a while so get off it!). |

I for one am out of this game for a while purely on the pricing, and seeing bitmain control the market to the extent of being able to dictate competitors' pricing, I may be out for a while yet. If however you are right and the S5 drops to (what now is 1BTC) on the S7's release, dependent on the effect the release has on the BTC rate, I may be back in sooner with the S5 or SF100 (certainly not the S7). |

So I downloaded the firmware from the 3rd party at Nicehash and am trying to see how to install it. I see on the site that it says: Instructions how to replace stock AntMiner cgminer binary are included in the zip packages as README file. So where is the README file? It was not in the zip file. https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#asic |
