Sorry for the noob question but at roughly what hashrate are people hitting blocks on a semi regular basis and thus making their operation profitable?

Cool concept guys. I only just stumbled upon it. Did any of your runs result in a solved block?

What's your thoughts on the Canaan Avalon machines?

Efficiency is less of a concern with potentially free power


I am in Australia. We only have 240v.
 

I have the possibility of a friend hosting a miner for me in a spare room at his business without being charged for electricity. Could someone recommend a relatively cheap (<=$1500) but powerful miner that would suit this situation. Obviously an emphasis on higher hashrate over efficiency. Thanks in advance.

Could anyone tell me what is the official manufacturers website of IceRiver? Thanks.

I was just wondering if there is a bitcoin mixer that is considered reliable and safe to use? Is there a mixer that is the goto of most of the members here on the forum? Thanks.

Has anyone used swapzone.io? I'm trying to find out if anyone has had a good experience with swapzone.io. They seem to have been around a couple of years but surprisingly little info or reviews on them.

Failing that, could anyone suggest a reliable, anonymous crypto exchange to me? Thanks.

I've been out of the loop with miners for a few years but would love to get back into it. I always enjoyed having new hardware turn up in the post, setting it up and having it make money towards the next bit of hardware. Unfortunately I got caught up in a scam a few years back and got fleeced of all my mining income. Bad decisions, bad luck. Anyways, moving on. I have been currently looking at asicminervalue.com and I like how things are laid out, showing you ROI on different units etc. When you click on a certain model miner, a big list of retailers comes up underneath. What I wanted to know from you guys is how trustworthy are these retailers listed there? Is it as simple as picking the best deal and paying up or am I going to check who is and isn't trustworthy? Is there another, better way to find good deals and trustworthy suppliers? I'd love to hear from you and thanks in advance for your input.

Canamprayer: Could you please PM your supplier's details? I'm in the market for a miner or 2. As a newbie on the forums, I couldn't pm you. Thanks.

Where would you suggest would be the best place to shop for these miners? Thanks.

I realize that the likelihood of discounts at the moment on Bitcoin mining hardware is probably fairly low but I'd thought I'd ask anyway. Does anyone know of any sales on Bitcoin mining hardware with black friday sales on the way? Thanks.
