Batch 12 just showed up for $665!!! This will hurt resell value of our units.  They should have end it at batch 11.  Sad

Amazing thing is that in the UK people are still selling these on ebay at £1200 ($1600)...

Rich

well there is vat and import duty  so a 665 + 55 shipping = 720 and 30%? =   940   still a very big markup

940 vs 1600


at this price of 665 .

 I may get 4 more for my clients.

Yeah I would expect a 4-7% difficulty increase for the next one but that's just my speculation.

Batch 11 is no longer available and no Batch 12 for sale.  This is it, I think.  Which is good as that stops the resell value bleeding more.

EDIT - P.S I don't like how the next difficulty is slow climbing from negative to positive continually.  I guess they're powering the missing 150PH  back on slowly.

bitcoinwisdom uses the last 500 blocks so we started negative due to last adjustment.


I do a real time number in my speculation thread.


http://btc.blockr.io/charts

March 5  = 152  + 8 blocks
March 6  = 147  + 3 blocks

so we are +11 blocks  that means  299 vs 288 or

 +3.81 %

s8,s9,s10,s11, wut "S" is cummin'

I see another batch of S7's so likely Batch 12 is my guess.  On S7 there was just a lot of leaks hinting it was coming out so I don't think they are going to a new chip or anything huge.  One day a S7+ would not surprise me.  But I don't think anything super new, if they do they sure did a good job at getting rid of leaks.

I am speculating Batch 12.... but I could be very wrong.

I have four arriving on Tuesday .

I have to check my records but I think I purchased 17 of them.

Went and checked 17 purchased .  My batch 1 was a dud runs poorly never got any compensation.

So far all do work to this day.

Would have like to have gotten compensation for it but they never did give me any money back on that batch one.

Also I grabbed one in China and had lee host it.  That was a dud it hashed at 4600 not 4860

I did get 67 used back for it.

So I had 18 of them all told. I am down to one as most of my purchases were for clients.

I wonder if they will open batch 12 on Monday

Don`t invest more than you can afford to lose
it will sooner rise than fall...
yepp, constant is the best!

One thing we have not been the past 2 periods is consistent.  One a very positive.... then a little negative.  It makes no sense, I cant find good speculation to why it's happening.

That bad thing is price has fallen some.   And that can be a slow ride up.... so it's a interesting time.

Maybe they're moving huge self contained datacenter freight containers somewhere cold by ships, this would mean 3 weeks or so of downtime?

what is cold the south pole? Huh
Maybe they're moving to somewhere with cheap electricity and a cold place. Def not canadia, electricity isn't cheap enough for their needs. I can't think of any place that matches my description, but even if this hashrate manipulation, it doesn't make sense.

Why not, in the North over here you can get 0.03$/kWh, but there's better/cheaper place.

Hello yes is very cheap !

I honestly just think its retirement lag. Difficulty went up so fast that a lot of gear got make unprofitable in  a 1-month spam. s3, sp10 are pretty much useless now unless you have "free" power. 0.5w/G gear soon too if you pay >$0.12/kwh
I run one machine for fun because I enjoy mining, my electricity costs are high enough that profit is not possible, so I solo mine mostly.  But even I recent turned off my S3 and got an S5 because even though it's more expensive for me, the improved efficiency is worth it.  I'm going to move soon, and depending on rates there I will likely end up with an S7.

I am pretty sure hash rates are being played with.  Just not sure how?
I can come up with many reasons play with hash rate on the 1100ph vs 1300 ph level.
I just wish I knew the reason it is happening.
