Topic: Avalon A7 announced - page 103. (Read 147678 times)
I am surprised at the low hash to energy consumption figures on the A7. Compared to an S9 the A7 isn't even in the ball park. That is really too bad. Bitmain needs some competition at this point. Not really anything in the way of choices right now for miners.
I possibly would buy 10 with paypal and sell for btc.
My problem is they have not contacted me about my first order of 2.
So without testing the gear it is hard for me to even think about a larger purchase.

Accepting BTC for payment would certainly make me reconsider making a purchase. I like the size and power requirements even if the efficiency is less.
The lack of BTC payment and the power efficiency compared to the S9 made me say bye bye to this 
This is sad because I had great time with the A6.

I think were in need of someone to organize a group buy for all those fellow members who would like to buy in BTC
I have 12 Avalon 6 hashing now. They are all controlled by one Rpi, will this controller still work on the Avalon 7s? Or do I have to buy their controller as well?
You only need to update the Software

I ordered 2 days ago and I am still waiting for a payment email.
I ordered 8 2 days ago like you and waiting.
I hope the email they sent is wrong and they will accept paypal, CC, BTC as well.
If they will the 8 will become 12.

This seems really odd. How in the world does a miner manufacturing company not accept Bitcoin?
Good thing that the 721 is too expensive, otherwise I'd be very concerned about not being able to use Bitcoin to pay for Bitcoin mining equipment.
Hopefully in the not to distant future they will lower their price to a sub-340 day ROI (with free power), and accept Bitcoin for payment...

They'll accept Bitcoin.
hey right now they are not taking any money at all. btc paypal cc bank transfer
so don't worry until they bill us.

And over that, come on, a mining company should accept BTC!
no BTC payment - no deal
Agreed.If they directly accepted BTC I would pay the bit more in $/W/THs viewing it as a good and hopefully more reliable upgrade from my remaining s7's at work vs getting any more s9's.
Too bad I ONLY buy miners with earned BTC. The last time I used Fiat aka 'real money' was in April 2014 to buy my first pair of s1's from an Amazon dealer (JonesGear) located nearby in Ann Arbor. Haven't spent a single cent since in Real Money. Currently that seed money has grown to >165THs all paid for in BTC from farm income.
I am not about to pay the bit more PLUS the % it costs to exch BTC to dollars to buy them. Screw that noise.
