Looks like this is a good earner, but question remains. Has Antpool actually paid you guys out yet?

It doesnt seem that the miner monitors fan speed in this miner version. As far I can tell it runs the fans on full and completely skips the fan test cycle that usually occurs post boot with other Bitmain models.

It also runs incredible cool at just under 35 chip temps with sub 30 board temps. Thats with no cooling in a warm weather climate.

Obviously its because of the low wattage requirements. So are these fans total overkill for this miner?

Appears they slapped in stock S9 fans with no rpm governance or checks.

Can anyone confirm this?

S9 fans on something that spends a quarter of the power what do you think? Turn the fans down, chips can run at like 70 and it is still fine. Don't waste the energy/ create extra noise for no reason.

from 20mh on my 1080 to 31mh, not bad I guess, not close to the 40 I was hoping for. What oC seetings should I use for ETH? Will using this program with 1070s have any negative effect on those guys using a different program to mine? I feel like i have a terrible card if others are hitting 40mh.

It's happening, the idea of decentralization are gone

Let's make Bitmain more powerful than ever, let's forget about tech and such ideas

The real purpose is money, money, money, let's squeeze everything until ends very soon
Gpu don't gurantee decentralisation and in real world less then .1% miner actually cares about tech. It was always about money. This is how you survive and thrive in a capitalist/realist world.

Yes, GPU guarantee decentralization, it worked and it's working

Cryptos are supposed to fight against monetary system, banks etc, not being equal to

We can all buy these units= decentralized.
Bitmain should always keep it to 1 unit per customer, unless they want another fork situation to happen. I think they have learned from their mistake.

I'm looking for reliable hosting for 20 Antminers D3 and L+.
Anybody can advise me something?

I don't know what to recommend.

No one responds to my inquiries. Everyone is full, waiting list too long. I have nowhere for my January incoming miners now, this has stopped me from buying more. The ones that do host have terrible downtime.
 
I have access to the cheapest electricity in North America. I just wish I had enough miners on my own to make the investment worth it. My current site can only host 30 miners and I am desperate to setup something bigger.

If you guys have a lot of miners and are interested in quickly setting up your own facility contact me. It doesn't take much, lots of industrial space for lease, just cooling needs to be setup.

Re: BTG REDEEM (bitcoin gold) - STEP BY STEP (quick and dirty)

how long does transaction take from Step 5? I tried it, showed up fine, but never swept it. Kinda lost. wasn't much mind you like $40, but still upset if it doesn't go through. Swept it twice, no change in balance, maybe takes time? Perhaps my current private key and coinomi are not compatible?

Update: looks like BTG team is working on the integration of my current wallet. I will be back and try again in a few days. I wonder how all these people got their BTG gold already? IS there like a futures market for BTG? Weird.

Ventilation Question

Hey guys,

I am looking for 2 fans, one to exhaust hot air and another to bring in cold air. I am planning to have between 12-15 miners in my small basement room. I need to calculate what type of fan I need.

My miners: 10 L3+, 3 D3, one eth 6card rig

What type of industrial fan do I need? 1200+CFM is ok or do I need more?

Thank you guys, links to these topics would suffice.

At 20k of units being dumped along with others already..not to mention more in the future

maybe not getting one, you all dodged a bullet?

I mean 20k really? sheesh

1k,10k,20k makes no diff right or wrong getting some...if you can't get in

gonna be worse imho for the next scrypt-pow L3+ batch
]

Maybe, maybe not  Grin I mean wasn't the same thing said when the L3+ first came out? they are still profitable if you can get your hands on one. It just sucks that freaking bitcoin will not stay consistent right now. On the current path, I'm guessing it'll go back down to 3800.

Luckily for me, I already have 13 D3's coming in beginning of November. Hopefully they can advance shipment  Roll Eyes


Ah...I was on that train in got some L3's and on April fools day (april 1st) announced a 6 buck floor on LTC price thus justifying my
12-14 month ROI and 1/4 off equip deduction in real money off taxes for equip that year.

the price went to 50 bucks

so yeah, what you say could happen...I'm saying with the amount of units for x11 out in the world (or coming) it kinda MUST happen imho
for ROI....

not a slam....just saying..longer odds then normal with the volume of equip hitting the world from 5 different manufacturers....



I completely understand lol. You may actually be 100% correct, I think my 13 will do me for now. I think we all may of have dodged a bullet with them releasing 20k and they sold out in 2 hours. its crazy stupid. Its even stupider that we couldn't even get in to get any. That math verification is killing a lot of legit orders. I know I did the math right!! haha So is there anything in your opinion worth purchasing? I'm hoping to get 3 more of the S9's when they release the next batch.


Also--Do you guys think they are done releasing for the night? It's been a solid 45 mins and it seems like the site is calming down.

I don't think so, they will do another small Crypto only batch for people who didn't pay. Go to bed imo, I am.

Hi what model&Brand of PSU is compatible with L3+?

I have the same question, I was thinking of getting a 1600 watt evga gpu to use on my L3+ for 2 weeks while the one I ordered gets here. Some advice would be helpful. Thank you gents.
