whats the best coin to mine on these atm?

You all think its worth it to buy into these at 7k? def a hefty price . . but if the returns are there why not? xD

A bit weird, we have paid for 6 units of X10-they have set the shipping date as end of February.
"b) When our goods will be shipped?
 
end of  Feb "

I got the same email. We can set up a group buy? But I’m sure it has to be asap before they sell out. I can set it up for 8500 a unit? You can pay with credit card. I used stripe for online payments and square also.

Hey i saw it was in stock, so i emailed them, this is their reply;

So TLDR, i hope you were sitting on 42k USD in your bank account ready to be wired.

I’m a dumbass I paid 17,300

Just received my Giant B on Friday.  After plugging it in and pointing it to nicehash it's not working.  The red lights show up but no blue lights.  It connects to the pools but doesn't do any work.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Has anyone solved this problem?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Update:  Fixed the problem.  The support staff at asicminermarket.com sent me the following instructions:

anyone having troubles with their Giant X10 or B, could you try logging into it (default user:pass is baikal:baikal) and running this command:

Code:
lsusb | grep 0483

This command will list the USB devices attached to the OrangePi and then filter those results to only show lines with "0483" (STMicroelectronics' USB vendor ID). The expected result is this (where things should be working properly):

Code:
Bus 007 Device 003: ID 0483:5740 STMicroelectronics STM32F407

But if you get this:

Code:
Bus 007 Device 002: ID 0483:df11 STMicroelectronics STM Device in DFU Mode

Then the STM32 microcontroller may need to be reset (it is stuck in firmware download mode). If this is the case, issue these two commands:

Code:
echo 0 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data
echo 1 > /sys/class/gpio_sw/PA10/data

The first command sets the PA10 pin to 0 (off) on the OrangePi, which is connected to the STM32's reset pin, which in turn holds it in a reset state (it needs to be at 0v to reset). The second command de-asserts (sets to 1 in this case) the reset pin allowing the STM32 to begin normal operations. These steps fixed the issue with a Giant X10 I looked at. These commands may need to be run again after reboot, so you may want to write a script in your favorite language to do this at boot or to do a periodic check.

If you get "permission denied" (or something like that, I don't remember the exact message ATM) when trying those commands, try this first:

Code:
su
(then type "baikal" again for the password to elevate your terminal to root level)
Or simply log in as root:baikal instead.

Worked for me and I hope it helps other.

Anybody received this?

$12K
so f*k it

It really depends on what you pay for it now... imo if you paid more than $5k, then it's probably not worth it.

With an roi of 200 days?
I my opinion not.

general question - is it worth to buy Baikal B now with start of mining next week?

"I'm a miner who really wants a particular alt".

That's why I left lbrypool for Zpool.

Any Baikal B miners currently mining LBRY, there is a pool that has a 0% fee it's http://lbrypool.com

It's currently a community pool and has been hitting above average blocks too.

I see that some of the people here got their baikal-B already, Can I know why can you get it so fast and when is your order?

I think mine ordered before Christmas and I have not yet receive anything regarding the shipping and tracking info. I ordered directly from baikal.

The profitability of baikal-b is dropping day by day. I really hope that I can get mine soon and start mining. 

I could really use some help on Zpool, the time to block is still high for LBRY but the pay rate is really good.
Pick a coin you want (or LBRY) and mine using the LBRY algo.

*I'm a miner who really wants a particular alt on Zpool and 20 hour time to block is killer.

Ouch, You paid their premium price of $7000 each and MOQ of 6? Or did they go lower?

I got this new bank info too. checked again with thier skype guys. responsed it is their new bank account.

even I got confirmed from both skype and skype, still a bit of worried, and then I found seariver industril limited have same address with there main company baikal holdings limited(I guess this one is main) so I have sent the money yesterday.  I will updte you if they confirmed my money later.

now whattomine shows 418$/day with 160 G/h (Blake256r8)... am i wrong in this calcs?

they send this bank account yesterday to me:

Account number: 366-902-966-5
Beneficiary: SEARIVER INDUSTRIAL LIMITED
Address: Room 2105, Trend Centre, 29-31 Cheung Lee Street, Chai Wan, Hong Kong
