this thing seems pretty sweet, it allow me to make profit even now, 50-75 net per month, not bad at all, still it would be good to see a a lower level antminer s7, a small cousin

because i don't want to run somethign which consume more than 600w for now, it would be a problem with this apartment when running thing like washing machine etc...


you mean s5 or something else

yeah basically, but with the efficiency of an s7, it would be ideal for those who want only a small hash to try out, or for casual mining

 To whoever donated a coupon to this individual. It appears as if your coupon has been posted on eBay for fiat currency profit of $50. Sad  This user also PM'd me begging for coupons...

That's a pretty scummy thing to do

Considering I sent him one... where is my cut droid?

I guess I didn't ask if he was not going to sell.  Just assumed.  But still surprising if true.  


I sent out a few Pm's yesterday and you were kind enough to give me one; but everyone needs to read the full story before jumping to conclusions

I've been in contact with Bitmain regarding the issue since at first I didn't know if I would get a coupon and thinking they'd sell out of the s7, I placed the order without one and sent a note to Bitmain asking if I could just pay for my S7 minus the coupon value (Philipma can vouch for me this). Bitmain just replied back saying to place a new order using the coupon and ask to transfer funds from my original order in the notes so I just cancelled the eBay listing telling whoever bought it that it's no longer available.

My reasoning for listing it, was if Bitmain would come back having me pay the full price and wouldn't let me pay the minus $100 order that at least I could sell it and get something out of it.. Albeit not $100 off but $40 after eBay fees




your reasoning was wrong, you should have sent it back.


He sent a PM with showing an order using the coupon.  So in the end I guess one got used.

The reasoning on listing was wrong.  But we all make mistakes I guess.  I just don't have time to keep playing investigator.  Even at end he did not understand ebay is wrong nothing I can do to change that.

I was given a different wallet address for my order. So far I'm the only one sending to this wallet: https://blockchain.info/address/1CWByf1b8jvJURP2dE7rLp1ufkAWPJZ7wr

Everyone gets a separate address but then it's being swept to 1KwA4fS4uVuCNjCtMivE7m5ATbv93UZg8V:

You have to look at a certain date range (starting ~ August 30?) to estimate how many S7s they sold.

final balance 1804 (as you have to ignore everything before Aug 30) or ~225 machines.
Come one, who wants to be a member of a S7 300 club (S7 future owners who ordered before three hundred machines are sold)?
kidding, of course
my crystal ball sees a $200-250 price reduction with a hefty coupon for early orders, unless BTC goes to 350 shortly.

Since power costs here in my country is too high, plus it's hot in here, may I ask: Will S7 be available for redemption at hashnest anytime soon?

Please take and show screenshot of ebay auction being cancled and screenshot of donated coupon's on bitmain's site.

If you can show ebay auction is canceled and on bitmain no S7 was donated from you I can believe it.  Please screenshot's if it is the truth.

Screenshot of PM's

Story does not make sense say's he used it... yet he sold it? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=201418035783&globalID=EBAY-US

So he used it in pm.... but he sold it... it multiplied into 2 somehow.

I asked of screenshot's and I will drop it.   I think it was sold unless screenshots prove otherwise.

AntMiner S5+ Batch 1 × 1
2375 USD ( 8.973 BTC )
Speed:    7.722TH/S

ANTMINER S7 BATCH 1
Speed:    4.86TH/S
Weight:    4 kg
Price:    1823 USD   ( 7.984 BTC )

.989btc difference for 2.862TH/S  seems a big premium for efficiency

0.61 BTC/THS more for that premium. Pretty steep indeed.

I've decided I'm gonna have to wait for reviews and hope the price is adjusted lower.

At the current price, there will be a few hundred people buying these fast in the first few days. My gut tells me that sales will most likely drop off dramatically to a trickle. They will have to lower the price to get the sales moving again.

YOU WOULD BE correct if they did not mine.  They have a self interest in limiting hash power. As does any of the top mining companies do.
 My guess is they shut these sales down quickly and assess what knc,, bitfury, 21inc, btcChinapool do to expand.
You have to understand if they sell 50ph of these they mine against them and bitfury knc ,miner ,21inc ,btcChinapool all expand.,,

My guess is they sell 1000 units top  or 4-5ph to us smaller miners


https://blockchain.info/address/1KwA4fS4uVuCNjCtMivE7m5ATbv93UZg8V 

so far 1500 btc in sales  or 200 of these.



now at 35,774.79976412 BTC, No. Transactions   6455.

EDIT: they sent my payment to 1KwA4fS4uVuCNjCtMivE7m5ATbv93UZg8V . Likely tracking for accounting purposes.

because i don't want to run somethign which consume more than 600w for now, it would be a problem with this apartment when running thing like washing machine etc...


you mean s5 or something else
A similar wattage to S5 but using a single s7 board is what we are talking about. This would keep noise needed down, give double the hashrate of an S5 and be even smaller than s5.

interesting, but is it doable, I wonder?
people can just form a co-op of loose S7 boards: say, each of three-four-five people take one board out and stick them into a pre-made box with 140mm fans for less noise.
However, taking one board out of S7 might change the properties of the wind tunnel-S7 seems to be very dense inside as it is.
The good thing is that it gives some impetus for fiddling with S7, which is great.

This might sound silly, but what I had in mind was 3 people purchasing 2 miners and split them into 3 unique miners with 2 hashing boards each. Ofcourse this would require a extra controller.

If anyone can do it, I bet sidehack could figure out what would be the best way to encase a single blade, an issue would be controllers though if Bitmain isn't involved.

So is the S7 board size so different that it would not fit in an S5?

Maybe Bitmain could offer an upgrade package?

S7 board has heat sinks all over it.
S5 upgrade would be nice, but don't hold your breath (remember the story of S2 upgrades).

Wow. He sent me a PM asking for coupons too. So at least he's a hard working scammer.

I'm still one coupon short if anyone wants to donate to me. I promise that I'll actually use it, not sell it.

I'm kinda leaning towards server PS for these though, $200 or so of Bladecenter H 2880 watt+breakout+cables will power 2 of these comfortably, and I'm easily capable of wiring up a 220 outlet to power it. I just want to find a cheaper source for NEMA 6 series outlets/plugs/cables than what I've seen so far.


You may also want to consider pricing out a cheap PDU to power 2 of them, and wiring a single 30-40A circuit to the PDU.  For 2-3 PSU's, it can make more sense both financially and keeps it cleaner using C19-C20 cables.

I feel the shift to server supplies has become pretty much a necessity these days with the load requirements from the recent offerings.  Not only do the ATX supplies get significantly more expensive/W once you get past 1100-1300W, but the longevity is just not there in comparison. There are so many different options for server supplies today, and the cost savings on the PSU's themselves will help offset the infrastructure required to get them going (240V circuits if required), plus PSU failures become significantly cheaper to replace (by re-using boards and cables) if they do happen.
