Which is not nice :-)

However, that should be enough motivation to you for working at some new 12 Th/s-miners for the ordinary people :-)

They can turn them all on at once.  It's about having the power and cooling ready as much as the hardware.  If the data center was setting up the power and cooling while the machines were being installed, then it could all come up at once.  But realistically the hash rate is just based on the coins found over X amount of time.  So until you get a longer period of time, you don't know if you're looking at luck or real hash.

I wonder if these data centers are really profitable for Bitfury.  They add more hash, but then raise the difficulty on themselves and their other data centers.  As folks like Bitmain continue to sell container ships full of miners, it makes massive deployments questionably profitable because of the work towards deploying such an outfit.  The home miner doesn't pay a staff, doesn't pay to rent a facility (At least it isn't calculated into their mining profits), doesn't pay for installation equipment, etc.  The home miner is at a big advantage and will eventually erode the data center's profits regardless of where they are located simply because the data center needs to pay a staff, and the organization itself needs to pay a salary to its people.  Where as the home miner only pays attention to their price per kwh.  A staff and rent is going to be much higher than whatever power advantage they are going to get out in Iceland on price.  Not to mention they have to pay for all their engineering and next generation engineering. 

In the short term, they will earn some coins, but over the long haul, unless they plan to keep those coins and speculate, it's likely they will go out of business.  And one day the difficulty will drop down a few percentage points. 

June 18 - June 29 was BitFury Georgian DC. 20MW deployment in 1.5 months. They've started in mid May.
What we see now is what George Kikvadze calls "Summer Surprise". It's their Icelandic DC.
I believe we can expect a continues cadence of 20 PH/s from BitFury every 2 months.

There are basically two scenarios I can think of why they would set them up in stages, test them on a couple of pools, take them down to test the next bulk and the switch them on bulk by bulk. However, none of these scenarios looks good for BitFury in the long term....

Please don´t forget to pay for the sp30 groupbuy hosting by tomorrow, if you want it(300$/m including shipping and installation, 6m contract).

If you were part in the groupbuy, you should have gotten all relevant information via email.

 

Thanks. We try to be transparent.
The PSU is supposed to limit itself in 110V, so I believe for most clients the system will just restart frequently. But there is a risk of PSU breaking, I seen it happening.

Thanks for the quick response, warning and subsequent fix. Seems to me like the usual for SPTech. Admit the problem, fix the problem and make the customers happy.

The plot thickens

SP30 users with 110V:
Please update your FW !!asap!! to 2.2.32.
Don't use your miner with FW 2.2.30 or 2.2.31, it can damage your PSU!

300 PH unrealistic zvisha? Bitfury, AM and KnC, BitMain and others didn't get the memo.

Not so sure that is the way to hedge given that BTC price could go well over $1000 USD.

Maybe about half of the August production?

They have stated previously that August production will pretty much continue through August, so yeah, the ~1000 units will be shipped starting next week. (and shipping every day during August).

Front and back rack ears are included. I think the post is only one page back.

What about the Sp-30 ears ? Not listed in the FAQ ?

Lol, those 55nm chips are HEAVY!

No. But I do know that their logistic can do 20 metric tons of equipment per day.

Even if it's a single DC deploying 20PH+, certainly they would do it in stages, no? Do you really think they spend weeks setting up and then flip the master-breaker and BOOM, 20PHs?

It's another BitFury DC, this time in Iceland. They're keeping their 2 months cadence for massive deployment.

August batch 1 starts shipping this week.

Here is the link they have for them.

old question but still... what model of ears rack can I buy for SP10 ?
