Hello everyone,

When we were doing the first mass production, we found that not all of the S3’s DC/DC module could be stable enough to support the 478GH/s speed. After long time testing, all of the S3 run stably at 441GH/s, which however is 7.7% less than the 478GH/s we have announced.

So we decide the final specification of ANTMINER S3 here:

Hash Rate: 441 GH/s or more
Power Consumption: about 340 Watt at the wall when running at 441GH/s
Power Efficiency: 0.77 J/GH on wall
Power Supply: 12V DC
Size:  331 mm x 137 mm x 160 mm
Fans: Two 14038 fans mounted on both front and back ends.
Operating Temperature: 0 °C to 35 °C
Complied with: FCC / CE
Network Connection: Ethernet

Many of the customers may be lucky to find that their S3 can be overclocked to 478GH/s.

We apologize for this incident. We offer two options for customers:

1)   10.0% worth of coupon for the B1~B3 customers. This is the default option. (10% based on what you have paid for the B1~B3)
2)   7.7% worth of refund. We will release a function on our official website for application of this option. If you have bought from our resellers, please contact them and provide your Bitcoin address.

Shipping schedule updated:

Batch 1: The shipping will be finished in 14th and 17th.
Batch 2: It will be shipping out between 18th and 19th.
Batch 3: It will be shipping out between 19th and 22nd.



Coming soon with a discount voucher

Not to be OT..

But didanyone else recieve an email from "[email protected]" containing a .jar ?

ive been getting a ton recently from random email addys

first one i tried to open on my iphone but quickly realized it was a phishing scam so i closed everything down, now im just deleting them

open forums are good places to harvest for scammers. You're being phished and the mail is most likely not from bitmain. .jar is a java archive that probably contains a trojan so they can harvest your account info and grab your coins.

Their message headers are similar to this:

From [email protected] Mon May 12 05:31:59 2014
X-Apparently-To: [email protected] via 98.138.211.113; Mon, 12 May 2014 12:32:05 +0000
Return-Path: <[email protected]>
X-YahooFilteredBulk: 209.85.220.48
Received-SPF: pass (domain of bitmaintech.com designates 209.85.220.48 as permitted sender)
X-YMailISG: //cryptostuffs_omitted//
X-Originating-IP: [209.85.220.48]
Authentication-Results: mta1125.mail.bf1.yahoo.com  from=bitmaintech.com; domainkeys=neutral (no sig);  from=bitmaintech.com; dkim=neutral (no sig)

If they signed their messages and published a DMARC reject policy their customers wouldn't get phished by scammers spoofing @bimaintech.com since most of the mail providers participate in DMARC. Way OT, but I see happen this too much.

Some thoughts on the maths of the 10% discount voucher:-

If a batch 1 order (pair of miners) was 1.50 BTc then the voucher will be worth 0.15 BTc

So a future order for Batch 4? will have a starting price of (pair of miners) 1.35 BTc

Deduct the market reduction Bitmain have been applying of at least(pair of miners) 0.05 BTc = 1.30 BTc maximum (copied from the Batch 3 price)


Then you arrive at 1.30 Btc less the voucher of 0.15 BTc

This puts a Batch4? (pair of miners) at a net cost of 1.15 BTc

By the time the backlog of orders are cleared, then another market reduction will be needed. (another 0.05 BTc)

By the 20th of this month we should expect to pay no more than 1.10 BTc for a pair of Batch4? miners.


Does anyone agree with my figures?

Odd dissecting the coupon/refund thing, but since I have no shipping info it suffices for an interesting puzzle. I think it's more generous than we have guessed:


1)   10.0% worth of coupon for the B1~B3 customers. This is the default option. (10% based on what you have paid for the B1~B3)
2)   7.7% worth of refund. We will release a function on our official website for application of this option. If you have bought from our resellers, please contact them and provide your Bitcoin address.

Say you've spend 10BTC on Bitmain gear s1-s3 total.
- 10% = 1BTC worth of coupons. Probably spread out in various denominations 0.1, 0.15 btc coupons = @ 8-10 coupons on future s3 orders
- 7.7% = 0.77BTC in cold, hard BTC

That's my guess on it. I think your coupon guess of 0.15 is correct. It'd be tempting if they allow us to use more than 1 coupon considering it's min 2 order.
