Hi all... Where can I download the wallets from? The URL's in this thread and many other threads are pointing to a dropbox location that is not reachable.

Hi all -

If a business wants to PAY a vendor using BTC but does not want to get tangled up in the complexities of owning BTC as it related to taxation etc... Does anyone know of a service that will make a bitcoin payment on the companies behalf, while the initiating business pay in USD?

I know this is a long winded question, but business today can RECEIVE payments via a paymebt processor which takes us out of the exchange game, which is nice. i am not talking about RECEIVING BTC/USD but PAYING a vendor with that only accepts BTC without converting USD -> BTC -> USD as you can do  with Coinbase.

I want to know if any of you know what the fastest way is to change USD into BTC for large amounts? Coinbase and most exchanges offer ACH and wire for large amounts but takes about 5 days to clear, which is what I am trying to prevent.

I know I can buy using VISA/Mastercard and have it immediately, but that is for low amounts.

Does anyone know of a service that changes USD into BTC quickly for larger orders?

What is your best performing pool you use on your L3+? For me I get the best results $ results from litecoinpool.org.

Hi all -

I have been wondering if the recent market correction will impact miner pricing in any way? What are your thoughts?

I have an L3 and I ran it in the house for a few weeks. With the study door closed, it sounds close to a regular AC, that is true, but when the door is open and you are in the room, it is noisy like hell.

There is a guy on Ebay selling a "Lite Sounds Box", check him out. I bough one and it drops the noise in half.

I am constantly looking for other companies, but there are few of them to really keep on the list. Help me keep this list fresh as you find out of other profiiders and pricing. I agree, in Q1 and Q2 we will see new models come out and I hope we will see some price competitive offers.

I am in the US, put me down

I am in if you are still perusing this

I have been keeping an eye on the pricing of all new SHA-256 miners that is being released and their associated pricing. I compared all of them in table format based on the information that is available today (22 Dec). How will you guide your buying decision for your next miner?

I am keeping an eye on this one too, but the efficiency gets me. At 1600-2000w that is quite a bit on the power will. Most of the competators lands around 1200-1400 at most.

It is my guess that $200/Th is going to become the new norm

I want to double-check, what site did you guys order from, baikalminer.com?

I am also interested, but why are we aiming for 30 orders, when the MOQ is 6? What will the process be?

It is simple supply and demand. They can set their pricing based on what they feel they can get for the products without competition shatching their customers.

Dont get me wrong, I was set to buy too, but at $2700, I sat out. I am monitoring all the vendors right now: Bitmain, Ebit, Canaan and thers and it looks like $200/Th is becoming the new norm.

Has anyone ordered from Baikal? I would like to hear your experience with both the company and their product.

I had the same problem with payouts. Take these steps:

Enter your wallet addresses for the coins you want to mine. Remember these are not BTC wallet addresses, but addresses of the perspective coins. Use Cryptopia and/or Bittrex. Disable all the coins you DO NOT want to mine.

Initially I tried to only mine LTC and got no payout. Now I don't even try LTC on this pool, I use a different pool for LTC. If there are no blocks, you get no payout of course.

Hope this helps

My L3+ works just fine. My config is:

URL
stratum+tcp://hash-to-coins.com:4444

Worker:
username.workername

Password:
Yourpassword d=65536

Hope this helps. Mine runs great

ponro, any special configuration you use on this pool? $25  a Day is good.

A question for the L3+ owners:

As of DEC 11th, what kind of daily revenue are you pulling in on this pool?

I am considering to switch, but would appreciate your feedback
