I guess 39% isn't enough...

And 0 blocks found, ever. As this is a PPLNS pool, it means nobody got a penny mining there yet. I'd suggest using siamining

Get your tinfoil hat off. Bitmain creates a new product page when it changes something like the price, old product page sticks around. February 04, 2018, 03:02:12 PM

What freq do you run your A3? What are your temps?

freq 644 and I do not recommend overclocking in full disclosure etc whatever

Chip and PCB 3 always running 10% hotter than the rest, you notice the same?

Yah I think mining SIA will be a losing battle, but not because there will be too many ASICs on the open market (though that will contribute). SIA is kind of like Ripple in the sense that it is a token used for utility and not an outright currency, almost like a casino chip. What exactly will drive up the price of SIA? That is what I don't understand. Storage will only sell at a certain point. I guess the only thing I could see driving the price would be those who plan on using the service heavily buying as many tokens as possible early on to use when price rises. As the supply rises though, it will eventually outpace the demand.
That makes it not the most profitable for holding, but for long term mining? If it becomes a standard currency and the use drives up, the profit doesn't matter, the mining will still be needed and the coins will have inherent value instead of speculative. But in comparison to, say, BTC or Litecoin, totally, I don't see Sia becoming a high value coin. I see profit coming from mining it, not necessarily holding it (though who knows? Currency values fluctuate all the time).

In the meantime, A3 are still available for ordering on the Bitmain's site. What would we get guys when the second batch will completely be deployed?
Still looks like it is going the D3 x11 route to me....3rd/4th etc batches with NO ROI......but I may be a coward in that I got burnt on 2 D3's ( I did however
ROI on all x11 miners, IF I count my 300mh May 14th, 2017 Baikal Cube ..that made 3.2k over cost.....so for ego protection I'm saying I 'broke even on x11'
not that I got tanked on Bitmain D3's. It is all about the ego protection, in 20/20 hindsight...don't ya know!)
Anyway, I'm staying clear unless they drop the price to like $380 or some such...then I might snap.....(doubtful)
https://goo.gl/S3o5Yz also rewards have now effectively and stable doubled within the last couple days
Of course I did. I got FIVE supposedly Obelisk Unicorns coming someday. I just post stuff....not that I know what he hell I'm talking about!
(my only hope on the Obelisks, is a USAF SiaCoin Fork. Unlikely!)
But, the Bitmain A3's are a poor bet also again IMHO, from 3rd batch on. Too many coin, whose worth is based on decentralized ASIC network
being up. (August 2018). Assuming they can do as they say, and beat Amazon Prices by 10c on the 1.00 usd.
March A3's are gonna struggle big time, with that looming over their head. (They can look down in the deep pool of dread and see my FIVE Obelisks
as a warning...alas...no one listens.....to the first casualties in any new ASIC war.)
My take, in that I missed BOTH 1st and 2nd batches of A3's ..then the tune would be different!
(damn, missed boats, i could form my own fleet!)
edit: rewards thing folk mention, is a long planned bug fix on difficulty, that was known before the A3's popped out. Though, glad to see it helps.

how much are they making a day$? in the last 2 days? thanks! got someone selling one for 3k, is it worth it?
At current ROI? I say yes. With batch 2 coming? Not sure; are you looking for a quick buck or plan to run it for a year or so? It's still a gamble, mind, but if you run it until it's no longer profitable against electricity, you should make your money back (and if you hold the coins or buy other coins with them, you could very well earn a nice profit). If you cash out weekly? Probably not at this point, that type of mining is really a day 1 or nothing approach with new ASICs...
I mean, there's a CHANCE it could be like the S9 or L3+ and draw a reasonable profit for a long, long time. Or it could be like the D3 and earn like $5/day or less. No way to know, so basically don't put in what you can't afford to lose. If $3K is a reasonable amount of money for you to spend, my advice is go for it, but the above caveats apply.
EDIT TO ADD: I WAYYY overpaid for my L3, it was my intro to ASICs mining, and I paid like 2.5x what Bitmain was asking to get a first batch one through Amazon. And while that seems stupid, thanks to cashing out a chunk in Dec, I have already hit my ROI, whereas had I bought the next batch it'd still be in the red. So it's all a crapshoot, really.

The reward thing is just crazy. Was primed to sell my A3 on eBay, then saw rewards climbing back up and decided to hold off for now.

What freq do you run your A3? What are your temps?
What freq do you run your A3? What are your temps?
figured id add mine:
3x A3's running at 700 OC, temps in the 40-50c range consistently. Fan running at 100%.
Miners running in sub-zero canadian winter ^_^
Here's one of the 3
