I used p2pool for 1.5 days with my ant.  My shares per unit of time never materialized, so my expected payout never got to 1/2 of what it should have been.  I considered it a wasted 1.5 days of mining.  I'm on eligius now.  BTW, I have yet to see a delay on Eligius payouts.

P2Pool has a large N in the PPLNS, it takes a few days for your share of the pool to max out.  If luck was okay you would have continued to receive payments even after you were back on Eligius.  I've been on P2Pool for a couple weeks now, I've made more than I would have on Eligius.  I switched after my 0.4 BTC payout on Eligius took 3 days to work it's way up the payout queue.

Placed an order about 3 hours ago...they are still showing the order as expired despite immediate payment, but it is just 7:30am on a Saturday for them.

yep it is 8 pm eastern standard time.  best case they catch up in 3 to 4 hours time.

I ordered Wednesday evening and UPS shows they shipped today.
So no delay from their usual 48hr shipping window even though my order showed "unpaid" and "expired" for 24hrs.

Thanks, Bitmain, you guys ROCK! Cheesy

Thanks...that's great to hear.  This is my first order directly from Bitmain and they are making me nervous  Undecided

I want to remind everyone that your ants should be mining on P2Pool.  It's better for the network, there's no need to trust pool operators, and in the long run it should produce better payouts due to reduced orphan blocks.

I have a node in Chicago, p2pool.1js.us, but there are lots to choose from or you can run your own.  I really like how you get paid immediately when a block is found, really beats the queue at Eligius.  Average time to a block is 1 day 12 hours, but I actually enjoy the added variance--it's really exciting when there's a day with multiple blocks.  If we get more people on the network the time to block will go down as well.

I HOPE bitmain release antiminer s1.5 ... similar antminer s1 but with small watt...


yeah they could build it.  I have 4 units I have clocked them at :

250
300
325
350 (stock)
375
393
400    

they work better at 325 but the volts stay the same so the 165gh hash  uses 333- 341 watts .

  they could lower  everything  volts + watts+ hash +freq  and you could do 128gh at 150-160 watts.

What I really want is a unit with a hi-low volts switch.
  
 low volts does 100- 128gh    you get close to 1.2 watts a hash = summer mode
 hi volts does 150-200gh        you get close to 2 watts a hash = winter mode

have a firmware that does not allow low volts to clock above 250 freq  and does not allow high volts to clock under 300 freq

If you are having a problem with your order notify bitmain by PM or email.
Quit spamming the discussion thread please.

Okay I won't tell if they fixed my order yet.  I will say that their order page reads they have not fixed the problem.  

I will also say based on the title of the thread it should be noted that their payment system is not working correctly as they freely admit .  right at this link


https://www.bitmaintech.com/product.htm    


 

Until they change the link be aware that buying may leave you in the same state of

limbo that many people are in posting about on this thread. I will post back in about 3 hours to say if they changed the page at that link.

   A PUBLIC SERVICE ON MY PART

With this price it's actually profitable to buy one of these, or is the price of 0.938 a bug? Do they still ship within 2 days and within a week it's here? I actually have found a spare PSU here of 500w it might work, and with the falling of BTC price of the device and USD/BTC, the VAT falls as well.

However I feel like difficulty is going to go up by 30%(S2 miners coming online soon, and tons of S1s sold due to price drop) per diff change, which makes it 5 months till ROI again.


depends I ordered one at .938 I paid it in 6 minutes.  it had 13 confirms in the block chain and it was cancelled as not paid.  We all know the blockchaininfo/wallet was crashed for days and bitmaintech has had a hugebacklog due to this.

So in my case or your case or anyone else's case  how much does this delay shipping.  I hoped to see my machine in New Jeresy USA on the 26th or 27th of March.

1 machine mines  .02367 a day if oc' to 200gh  but  next jumps comes the 24/25th to  4900 mil  it will then earn .02 a day .  

So if you buy today and your gear comes on the 28th at best  you may be okay.  very hard to tell someone buy until they clear the wallet/crash up

here is their front page

imho the difficulty will slowly jump also when the s2 will be delivered: 1-2 phash now is like the 4-8% of the bitcoin network hashrate, not so much to skyrocket the difficulty
Yeah but many more 1TH/s or 2TH/s miners are being released soon by competitors.

"soon"
I can see where you are going with this, considering BFL and how many pulled similar stunts.

They are predicting only a 14% jump in difficulty. Yes you can deff make profit at .938 btc for an S1.
Bitcoin Difficulty:    4,250,217,920
Estimated Next Difficulty:    4,876,053,400 (+14.72%)
Adjust time:    After 588 Blocks, About 3.6 days
Hashrate(?):    36,467,128 GH/s
Block Generation Time(?):    
1 block: 8.7 minutes
3 blocks: 26.2 minutes
6 blocks: 52.4 minutes
   
Updated:    16:25 (5.7 minutes ago)
This is just the next jump. And are all S2's even online? If only a handful of devices came online and we're already at 15% jump, this is huge.
