High time preference. I imagine they can replace boards more easily in their minds than it would to vertically install.  ..

Yes i figured as much, being the manufacturer also helps... Unfortunately those racks were designed for the older form factor, and this is a quick re-purposing. A proper designed rack would leave no room for horizontal placing, but its bad some customers would see this video and think its ok.

Funny to see Bitmain abusing their own equipment (or they don't care, lol). Horizontal placement hurts the upper board.

yea, may be they are upgrading their S9 farm to S17

No "maybe" about it, they have a video on their facebook profile of them upgrading all the racks and removing the S9's to replace them with S15/T15/S17/S11 style form factors.

Where do you think all the s9's came from that have gone for sale on their site?

Most likely the cause in the jump in hash rate this week as well.

T17 - 40 th/s shipping in September for 1052 and T17 - 40 th/s shipping in June for 1484 are up on bitmain. I used a 338 coupon and got a June one for just over 1200 shipped. Also more S9j - 14.5 th/s units put back up on site.

Edit: and about 3 hours later all sold out again.

supply issues or mining with the machines before sending them abroad, cheeky bastards lol

Don't forget Bitdeer and Hashnest... With the higher prices return the crowds willing to throw their money into the cloud, never to see it again...

They had some quick early batches and imagine they're waiting their turn at the foundry now.

Well 6666 looks too evil.

And 4444 is really low.

So 5555 is in the middle...

One of the best financial analysis of crypto I have seen in months! LOL.

Why 5555 a coin?

Basically a hard price drop under 6k would stop sales big time.

I am guessing bitmain is doing smaller builds of gear. Just in case of a price drop.

Well done by bitmain.  Now more people are being consumed by FoMo.

The only rescue for  them would be a price tank to 5555 a coin.

I've had email confirmation from Bitmain that the August batch did go on sale and they sold out almost immediately.

yep in 45 mins or less - that was the interval in which I was checking the site. it was showing may 21st then went to august in that short time.

I was checking the site like every 45-60 minutes - I knew they would open up sales due to the current batch shipping tomorrow.... but did not foresee or think they would now be sold out until August.... although they did lower the prices... I would have bought two of the T17's.

bitmain actually put S9j's up on the site this morning for a little over 300 a piece.

yep  and they will sell.

they may not have lots of the s17's and they can mark them up like mad plus restrict sales of them.

Cranking up FOMO like mad.  offordscott got me one  and it is so good it is amazing.

55th at 2225 watts middle speed.
40th at 1480 watts low speed.  this is touching on 3x better then the s9  as I had some s9's that did 13th at 1350 watts.

My garage power cost
in the summer is 18-19 cents  with cooling adjustment
in the winter is 10-11 cents with heating adjustment

the s17 at low power uses about 36kwatts or

3.60 to 4.00 dollars at 10-11 cent power
6.48 to 6.84 dollars at 18-19 cent power
 
it is earning 11 dollars  so I could say why not buy one for my garage

if you project it at 55 th and current price at viabtc it earns 55 x 0.00003923 = 0.00216765 btc or $16.61 a day

spends 54 kwatts or

5.40 at 10 cents
5.94 at 11 cents
6.48 at 12 cents
7.02 at 13 cents
7.56 at 14 cents
8.10 at 15 cents
8.64 at 16 cents
9.18 at 17 cents
9.72 at 18 cents
10.26 at 19 cents
10.80 at 20 cents

yeah you turn a profit at  20 cents a freaking kwatt!  diff is up 13%  but lets analyze   make diff do back to back jumps of 12% then 10 percent

so 6.704 x 1.13 = 7.5755th  and then x 1.1 = 8.333 th at this point  we are at an alltime high  but   the 16.61 is about 13 and that still is a profit at 20 cents.

We all know  20 cent power should not be a good number to mine with.  So if and when  enough s17's sell  along with m20's

diff will finally move up a lot.

Getting new gear with great difficulty  is fine it creates fomo.

fomo makes for higher coin prices.

coins are at 7700.

viabtc is paying pps+ at 104.61%  no variance risk  which means blocks are 13.07625 btc.

variance is moving up  over 13% this jump.

we are set for a bull run.  all old gear may hold value and simply go up in price.  the 200 usd s9 with a psu will move to 300.

Bitmains new s17 pro 53th  is a mofo beast.

I get 55th with 2225 watts = holy shit.
