So right now, bitmain a3 with 815ghs is doing $30-$40 per day, and when it started, it was $500. Also keep in mind there are 300+ units to be sold and will soon be in the network and that will take profits to $15-$25 per day. So the only one that earned a lot of money is bitmain ehhe
So right now bitmain is selling them for $2375 which means 2375/30 = 80 days to roi. It still looks pretty good compared to gpus. If it crashes to $15 then it will take 160 days which is till better than gpu mining.

So in the end SiaMining is the best choice to use or what do you suggest?
I wouldn't bother with anything else, set it and forget it February 14, 2018, 04:48:54 PM

Who else have overclocked their a3 miners / at what and how is it performing?
I ran some tests, posted here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/antminer-a3-blake2bsia-overclock-test-results-2881452. I'm sticking to 681 as I'm taking advantage of cool ambient temps (miner next to an open window) and my HW error rate is a bit lower than it was when I tested.
I've been mining in SiaMining, but switched over to Luxor today to give it a shot now that their luck has been improving... I'm going to give it a few days before making the call on switching back.
-glosed
Update, just switched back to SiaMining. Ended up giving it almost a whole week (~6.4 days) but ended up averaging only 1,409 SC/day on Luxor (and I'm overclocked at 681, hashing average 940GH/s in Antminer UI). They had a day or two with solid luck and enjoyed that payout, but there has been much more bad luck than good. Maybe I'm too impatient to handle 10+ hour timeframes with 0 blocks found but that's a bit tough to stomach when there's a month left before the second batch ships and profitability tanks. They did mention that along with their "24-hour ramp-on" that there is also some sort of ramp-off where I get paid for 24hr after stopping, so I will update this post's figures with the additional revenue (if they find another block
)I was netting 1,900 SC/day on SiaMining before I switched over, the diff has of course gone up so I'll also see what I end up back at once I've been live for a day or two.

..... if anyone else wants to share their siamining address with just one antminer a3 and if it's OC'd or not and if so what specs would be glad to make that the go to for monitoring daily antminer a3 profitability
Here it is: https://siamining.com/addresses/21f72b291f5935663f76bc5fbdfa5224c03a3a845466e876e4c03b9fc603eb4960673ef7ba35 - mining with stock settings
It will be interesting to see when it will ROI
Here's mine. https://siamining.com/addresses/2cd1424b6764dff6a81a6b2b33818c899dc8c355ae2bc404d0d9fc9e462651e1e321cbdc38fd#payouts
Love your YouTube Channel. Question tho. Ronin87 has two found blocks. Can you point me in the direction of a good link that would explain how that happens or do you have a video of one or can you do one?
Thanks in advance.

I like their miners but the amounts of units sold is making it only profitable for them and not those mining which sucks donkey plus they have a pool, how much is too much and how long ago did Bitmain cross that. I know by buying their product I am only supporting their bullshit, great miners but for how long....

It won't be great considering they're dumping those at 980 but it will be just shy of ROI
Yeah with a price tag of 980 how could it not become another D3? I had hope with the a3 but when was the last time you saw a sub 1000 bitmain price tag? February 12, 2018, 12:33:52 AM

Some users on reddit expressed their concern with their bitmain antminer a3's offgassing a pollution level of formaldehyde so we decided to test ours along with our other asic miners and gpu rigs

Someone plugged in 600,000TH worth of miners... 
Vosk you in the 1700 range about now?
yeah on track for 1600-1700 https://goo.gl/S3o5Yz these earnings along with stress of new miners and the diff adjustment has just been a very weird experience overall lol Vosk you in the 1700 range about now?
I wish I had the power to double the hashpower!
Also I decided to sell my antminer a3, if anyone else wants to share their siamining address with just one antminer a3 and if it's OC'd or not and if so what specs would be glad to make that the go to for monitoring daily antminer a3 profitability

With the current difficulty, how much usd are these pulling in daily now? How has everyones experience with board failures been, i know sometimes its hit or miss just wondering if the first batches were mostly good or buggy.
Second week and have had none..knock on wood or something something Jump to:
