Any guesses on what the value of the next coupons will be?

$0.00

BitMain is unhappy about customers selling coupons. So it's no longer being done.

xstr8guy, how do you know this or is your comment purely speculation?

How about next time don't give us so freaking many....I had over 70 S2 coupons and had never bought a single one. Plus, why allow donating if not wanting them to be used?

Solid advice.  Will be shaving my head tonight.

Done!! Instant hash rate increase!! Also it seems to reduce rejected shares if you sing a lullaby to the asic.
Guess it just needs to feel the love...

Just got my new S2 in today and it works great! What a major bummer they decided to just go with the kit. This thing is really a great design, I must have been one of the last to order one.

Can't wait to see the S3!

Now I'm ready to see the price of BTC go higher. LOL

Kia ora!
Its going around this forum. Others have been hit with the similar scam. BITMAIN orders should all go through their website and via Bitpay.

Guys please be careful !! I asked about availability of AntMiner S2 and got pw by user called "BITMAIN..", the same nick as nick of our company but with dots at the end !! That's the message I've received:

"Hi,

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=515448.3260

I am bald I picked up my S2's Before 1.) They sold out 2.) Eliminated the $400 off coupon 3.) this over priced do it yourself kit is the only option  Huh

"I am bald" is the only thing I understood here...

Sometimes when I am reading BCT I feel like I am talking to the Pikeys in SNATCH...lol

Is you bald too?

Yup, i am bald. i have found it to be an advantage in BTC mining. Being bald is better for your hash rate. Hair and the static it generates is a destructive element to all asics, and simply must go! ...... this should a new 'thread' altogether... get it?

I think they offer this kit only for the buyer that is in rush to purchase.After their holidays something else
will be announced just like the S1 that went out of stock and later on after 10 days if am not mistaken
on sale again....
In companies like bitmain the income clock must turn fast as a fan not its only like a clock and this is not
good as its increasing the temperature....

  So many people bitched and moaned about the PSU that came with the S2, Comment after comment about sell it without the crappy PSU, because I am just going to replace it anyways.
 
 Now you can purchase an S2 without the Enermax PSU and people wanna cry about that.
 
 Bitmain was purchasing PSU's most likely a thousand at a time, probably around $15-$25 each, and same for the case that many people didn't care for.

  If you don't like the current price, wait till the end of the holidays and see if it moves in your favor.

  Buying a PSU on your own is on your shoulders as to what it costs. There of cheap ways of getting one and  $$$ ways of getting one. You would have been leary of what comes with it anyways.

 If you don't know what to do without a case, look at the GPU rigs, there are a ton of great ideas to use that are nearly free to duplicate.

 Not a DYI'er; then wait ...........the next gen is coming. If you had BTC a week ago, its gone up in value and your ROI well........................?


Dude if you can source an enermax revolution 1000w at 15 usd i'll be glad to pay you 40 dollars per unit for 1000pieces.

IMO the foremost reason for building the S2 was to use up a humongous stockpile of 55nm ASICs before the new ones arrive. Making a machine to compete with the 1T A1 based machines was a perfect solution: it gave Bitmain a stop-gap product and it used 10x the ASICs of an S1. Certainly it was never a cost-effective machine to produce, but the S2 accomplished its goal, the stockpile of ASICS is diminished. Now it's time for it to be retired. Why offer the S2 kit? Well, again IMO, the kit will satisfy some customers clamoring for product NOW, and it will be cost effective for them to sell and ship without the bulky case and power supply
