Wow.... like the flies! What's that buying pressure on Havelock? Do you think it's merely the chance of buying some cheap shares due to the decrease in BTC price? Or again inside knowledge from Board members or industry partners like we've seen with the announcement of the successful BE300s tests?

[ANN] Jan 14th, 2014 - Umisoo, ANTS2, & ANTS3 Hardware Powered Off

Today, at 08:05 GMT, all Hashnest Umisoo, ANTS2, & ANTS3 units were powered off, as their maintenance fee became higher than their payout. This procedure was previously outlined in this post https://forum.bitmain.com/bbs/topics/969. At the moment, we are examining the situation to determine what further action will be taken. We will be doing our best to keep you updated with the latest information. As long as the machines are switched off, there will be no new revenue payments from these machines. Further, we will collect no maintenance fee on the Umisoo, ANTS2, and ANTS3 during this time.

Note: GH/s trading for these units will continue as normal. Users may still buy or sell mining contracts for the Umisoo, ANTS2, and ANTS3 during this time.

ROCKMINER shares buy back plan

Dear Shareholders,

Thank you for supporting ROCKMINER for so long term, in the past months,we designed, produced and sold thousands of miners.
RM can never be a recognized company in community, and running for so long without your investments and help.
I know you are disappointed with this situation, and feel angry about loss of money.However, as we know, BTC miners producers have suffered a long downturn term for BTC price going down in past year, lots of manufactories bankrupted as we know.
We did try our best to run the company, I still remember the first two and three months, we worked from day to night for the designing ,producing and selling, we were excited for first product R-BOX made out.Our team became a professional miners producer after months.
We were planned to save the remaining capitals for future producing investment, but after time passed and market situation changed, we don’t think we have the capacity of producing new miners in next months, because we don’t have chips and costs excluding chips still very high.
Whatever, we still feel very sorry about what ROCKMINER experienced ,and we plan to use 90%+ company capital to buy back all public shares to reduce investors loss.

Etc.

ROCKMINER will not quit  BTC industry, and will try our best to survive,such as lower salary, fire some employees.The best thing is finding some new investors, we don’t think there was someone who will do this,considering current market situation,

Sincerely,
ROCKMINER Team

Higher ROI

AMHash has a low cost on both initial price and maintenance fee.The maintenance is only $1.633 per day per TH,which equals to $0.07/kwh.

Electricity and maintenance fee of AMHASH is 1.551$/TH/day. AMHASH runs Tubes with efficiency ~1W/GH that means 1TH will eat up ~24kWh/day = 1.551/24 = 0.064$/hour. That's electricity and maintenance, so you can bet that electricity alone is 0.05$ or less.
At 0.13$/kWh electricity eats up all BTC from mining (at current diff and 230$/BTC price)

Electricity and maintenance fee of AMHASH is 1.551$/TH/day. AMHASH runs Tubes with efficiency ~1W/GH that means 1TH will eat up ~24kWh/day = 1.551/24 = 0.064$/hour. That's electricity and maintenance, so you can bet that electricity alone is 0.05$ or less.

....
Is $0.05/kWh from an official source? What do the numbers look like at, say, $0.13/kWh?

And will be for some time, 0.05$/kWh (or maybe even lower) will be profitable even at 100$/BTC. And those Tubes that works for AMHASH mine are not so efficient as Gen4 hardware will be. AMHASHv2.0 with Gen4 hardware will be a success for sure.

I don't know about you guys, but AMHASH mining still seems to be profitable, thus AM seems to be able to mine at a profit still. I take that as the one good thing this day has brought us.

So...this price crash that's happening down to $253.11 on Stamp...this friedcat pulling a lil extra fiat capital or...

If so...lulz how many gen4's are they cranking out?!

Gotta agree to both of you, BUT: Sure they should sell as many chips as they can but please, in no case simply rely on selling chips - they need to self-mine and also sell cloud mining. The beauty of cloud-mining is that you can just build a large self-mining farm and then sell as much of that hash-rate as you can. Distribute the money you make as divs and/or reinvest!
