1. Bitmain's revenues are in BTC
2. Chips/equipment bought probably with FIAT
3. The price of BTC took a dive
4. He is in China. Even possible to convert BTC to FIAT anymore?

tldr yes, nothing major changed.

can sell btc on many exchanges like btce. Etc. Its what currency to convert and bring it back in.

give bitmain time. its not uncommon to give the tracking info 24hrs+ after they ship, and i am expecting to receive my tracking info in the next 14 hours. (If not after 14hrs ill be a touch more concerned, but they have a great track record that speaks for itself. they focus on shipping, not forums

My bet is that he is in BIG financial trouble. Let's hope he delivers!

Anybody get myUPS notice for batch 2? Their web site still says shipping "before April 10."

Exactly!

i dont know why some people seem to assume BEFORE somehow translates to ON, AFTER or AROUND....

Especially considering we are now on the 11th

Fair enough they have 'issues' but typing a one line explanantion isnt exactly difficult.....look how easy dogie does it , and hes just making stuff up based on previous information....

how can it be so difficult/time consuming for 'Bitmain' to type one line??

FFS!
I agree, batch 1 got shipped on time to what was specified on the site... by my account, this delivery is already 1 day late... disappointing.

Oh dear god, really?  One day late and people are moaning.  C'mon!

Way to miss the point entirely!

Communication!

'Hi Guys, We are going to be delayed as we are busy fixing stuff' - wow, i couldve got so much else done while i typed that!

Why dont u stick to spamming us all with your so-called signature while we wait for our miners, eh?

Oh f$&@ off!  You suddenly expect BitMain to start communicating?  This is their M.O. so why such surprise when they aren't posting on the boards every time you get pissy-pants?

Btw, I'm waiting for my Batch 2 as well.  And so sooorrry my sig offends you so much.  Go complain to a mod you big baby.

Batch 1 people got their miners before the communication saying it had shipped, and before the website was updated. Hmm.. hang on there is something familiar about that, oh yes, just like 99% of all S1's that were shipped.

Batch 2 was much larger, they are always focused on getting them out the door first before anything else. So I bet B2-S2's arrive at peoples doorsteps before any updates are seen here or in your account status.

Or maybe they just fucked off to Barbados with all the cash.

Really? That's simply not true...

As it is still needs one and a half hour to enjoy the April 1st, this message is real:

we are packaging the Batch 1 of S2 and will be shipping them out tomorrow.

Look at the date, batch 1 was due to be shipped before April 1st...

I am getting my S1 today ordered on Tuesday. So not to worry. It's coming....

My guess is they improved whatever they could given the feedback on batch 1. And short lead time.

Haven't heard anything yet.. no reply's on emails either.
Might be delayed some what

For all of you guys concerned about tracking numbers, sign up for myUPS, it's free and you'll usually get notification days before delivery.  You can also release shipment so you don't have to be there to sign if you are comfortable that it will be safe. 

Only works for that tiny, insignificant proportion of the planet that live in the US unfortunately Tongue

Well I am going to go out on a limb and suggest that hardware sales across the board are going into the toilet in the near future given BTC breaking down.

Expect difficultly to slow

Which means maybe our purchase will break even

Super

Not unless they don't ship it ever Tongue hahaha.  We always beat up on these ASIC makers, but we keep buying them.  I'm just hoping they see that there is more profit in just selling the machines hot off the line at a premium and letting the distributed folks do the mining and take the risks, rather than mining for themselves too much.

This is going to be an interesting month for bitcoin, and its just started! sheesh!
