AM is back on business @1,2btc/Th and in massive quantities tho

That's true, and IIRC FC said his goal is to drive the competition into unprofitable territory. As in he's going to undercut everyone so badly that they all go out of business.

It will be interesting to see how it plays out--I look forward to AM's new gear.

Where do you see it (AM gear), apart from rocket box and XBTEC? I see only github announcements on their facebook?

Re Bitmain-they will adapt to whatever competition shows. right now-not much, hence higher prices.
This should increase prices in the aftermarket (good for those with S3 already).

The Eighth Batch of AntMiner S3+

Only Available at http://www.bitmaintech.com

Bitmain now announce the S3+, which is a revised version of S3 running stably at 453GH/s (frequency=225 MHz), while consumes 355 Watt power at the wall. Most of miners will be able to run up to 500GH/s but not guaranteed.

AntMiner S3+ for sales shipping starts on September 20th or earlier

S3 is a great success product and almost sold out. The sale of S3+ is 0.58 BTC each including the international shipping, which starts on September 20th, 2014 or earlier. Sales open in the Beijing Time tonight 22:00 (UCT+8:00 Time Zone).

We strongly believe it is best choice of mining bitcoin for both the mining farm and the home miners.

So hows this diff from my B5, better firmware ?

They set the factory clock to 225M after the guinea pigs (i.e. batches 1-7 S3 buyers) successfully tested and confirmed that they can be stable up to 250M. I think that's the only difference.

If that's all it is, that's total BS lol

Well, as others have expressed in here, Bitmain's business model is now becoming BS.

restart only restarts the cgminer process reboot does a complete reboot of the os

Both of your cron entries are correct for 8 am and pm, the question was for every 12 hours

Geez, difficult much? LOL

I see that the question was 12 now. Didn't see your post before I posted mine, so chill.

I see restart affecting my hash line (trail off in hash graph). I do not see the same thing with reboot, so I question what you are saying. This works for me. That is all.

Related: I have 5 S3's collecting dust because the data center deal fell through on a commercial insurance-related issue, and I have no more space left in my house as I'm drawing ~8kW for mining already. *grumbles* Guess I'll have to decommission either some A1's or BitFury gear. Haven't decided yet. *grumbles* /r/firstworldproblems

No problem, send them over to me and I take care they find a nice new home here! Grin

Canada has the prettiest girls, even if they are scammers Grin

Miners considering a "plain-Jane" to be a hottie is a good indication that they don't go out much. Grin

Boycotting Bitmain right now. 9/20 might as well be next year. Going to try this new AM gear shipping before the end of the month.

As a matter of practical formality, the 4Chan Protocol dictates that you produce a photo of yourself, with a shoe on your head, with todays time and date and your forum name written on a piece of paper.

For extra bonus difficulty, it is not unreasonable to ask for you to hold a tooth-brush in your left hand.

Ouch - you might want to check around at other dc's. I am in two dc's now on month to month and neither of them actually asked to see insurance, even though it is in the agreement (and I have it).

ANTMINER S3 Batch 7 Sold Out again
Grin

Man, i still haven't received my batch 5 order -placed on July 27th. I don't even have a tracking number yet.

Will there be a batch 8?

Looks like B7 is the last until Sept 20 when the new S3+ goes on sale along with the upgrade kits. Considering the 25-100% difficulty jump by then the prices don't look too appealing.

Well, the S3+ and the S1 upgrade kits are up on https://bitmaintech.com/product.htm ... I don't know how many people are quietly ordering (getting tired of hearing about ROI) but I will proudly stand up and say that my order has been placed.
