Mine for a Bit

What do you mean exactly?
You mine $3000 per month and pay the data center $1000? Like that?

I was just curious who would have control over BTC wallet, seems you would have control over both pool and wallet.
They just want their monthly payment or they can lock me out of the data center.
It is 2 miles away from my house. So the remote hands are mine.

I have checked with 5 different data centers for 20 miners and the cheapest quote was $5k.  I do not see how that is profitable.

Are you talking about electricity? Seems kinda high if so.  Your talking around 23.2 K watts  At 10 cents like 1.6k USD or so depending.

Are you talking about older bitmain miners and actually getting a miner for that 5k?

I am talking 20 S7 Antminers @ 24KWatts.  Yeah gross would be around $6k per month which would leave a net of $1k per month after paying the $5k to the data center.  My ROI would be 3 years.  That is not a good!

Did you folks with 3.0 Kg orders also have Power supplies? There are reports that Bitmain will ship PSU's in advance of the miner itself.

I would think 3.0 Kg as being "light" for the miner.

No PSU ordered here just a miner

I'm pretty sure UPS will send me a bill in the mail for a "brokerage" fee of maybe $35 to $40 but we may also have to make up the difference in weight.  Only time will tell.  I'm not going to worry about and just wait for the bill to come in the mail from UPS.

Really?? I have never had UPS bill me before on miners. I am having this one dropped off at my local UPS Store as not to miss the delivery. It will be interesting if they try and collect anything from me.

Really,

I had a shipment of 6 x S5's from Bitmain in which I had to pay a brokerage fee of $39.29.  I've had other shipments from Bitmain with no brokerage fee at all.  I think it's kind of a hit or miss thing.

It is very true you can read me on PSU's https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12697178 .  But if they ship for less then actual and are caught the cost goes to the one they shipped to.

So I guess it's luck.  But once they get known for doing it I predict more and more people see these bills.  And again be careful it looks like junk mail to me on it, but is a legit bill from shipper.

They play with the weight. for the amounts of miners they ship, the transports companies just ramdom spot checks some of the boxes and being only 1 kg off, most of the time won't do anything about it. but for bitmain the volume is huge and they save tons of money in shipping cost. i know cause i used to work for a company and my boss had me do the same thing.


Yes that's it

Sign into your UPS account and check. Mine shows up on UPS as being scanned on pick-up but does not show up yet on my Bitmain account. Mine was ordered/paid on 9/8

Has anyone actually got the PPS pay for being lat on shipping?  I was just curious if they really have done this or not for people yet.

The showing of shipped, and no info is kinda scary.   Hopefully they check into that more.

It will probably be done have shipping of batch 1 is completed.  They are generating a list of those with late deliveries, how many rigs they had which were late, etc...  That is my "guess" anyway.

My UPS tracking said 3.0 Kg for each of 9 boxes.  I ordered 9 x S7's with no PSU's.

I did order power supply as well, but I already received them.
They were marked as 2.00 Kg.
Bitmain says the S7 should be 4.5kg.

From Bitmain's site:


Be careful if they are paying less weight then it actually is.    They did this on 3 of my PSU's.  I ended up with a bill for them shipping at lower weight then actual.  I paid like 12 bucks for all together for 3 psu's.  So was not horrible.  I would hope they have fixed this tough.

But if you get it lower then actual look at your letters in mail. I almost threw my bill away as trash until I saw it truly was the shipping company sending me a letter. I assumed it was junk mail.
