Topic: Bitmain launches the Z9 Equihash miner - page 9. (Read 37211 times)

if you are in the USA and bought 2 Z9s, you can pretty bet on getting the tariff. get your checkbook ready as those two miners combined are thousands of dollars that will not be unnoticed.

Yep same here, shipped today.  I'm sure everyone who bought through bitmain will be hit with tariff.

Here's to hoping no 25% customs tariff!

Just received notice on my first 2, also. Should have 1 more from the 2nd batch.

Yes agreed.  But fact is fact

Just received confirmation. My 2 Z9 biggies shipped out 3h ago!

There is probably not much to say if ideology and political preferences are posted in a thread

Not an excellent comparison.  The gun manufactures are lettin the citizens do the dirty work.  Causes five more to want to buy a gun.  Still very dirty pool.  Plus nra invites hates and violence and thinks the only way to solve that is with a gun.  No one has time to talk it out this day and age. Fucked up world only gonna get more fucked as time goes on!

How are your gains mining with GPUs? Perhaps getting some FPGAs instead?

Is the gun manufacturer using what it manufactures for themselves to benefit themselves by shooting people?  Hell NO!!!

Is the ASIC manufacturer using what it manufacturers for themselves to benefit themselves while harming others?  Hell YEAH!!!  How are they harming others they sale their products to?  By competing against the very ones they sale hardware to by manufacturing four (4) units with the money they are paid from only one unit they sale.  They keep three of those four units for themselves to mine with and take their sweet ass time getting out that fourth one to the buyer.

I have to admit that I did not pay attention to discarded shares. Someone said in ZCASH Reddit: "I believe this is normal. Check your estimated payouts based on Accepted shares and it should line up with a profitability calculator."

I am comparing my profitability with the one listed on
https://whattomine.com/asic
and
https://www.asicminervalue.com/

and it looks OK for me.

By the way, I earn ~ 0.27-0.28 ZEC /day with three Z9 mini (I was getting ~ 0.16-0.17 ZEC/day on one Z9 mini in June)

Hope you're right regarding the ship time.

As for the profitability, I'm hoping that the reports of the batch 2/3 minis not overclocking well are due to binning of the chips that are going into the batch 1 biggies (sorry batch 2/3 mini buyers), allowing the biggie to be overclocked to 55-60 ksol/sec. If not, will be a long(er) road to ROI

I'm not one to immediately bash a company but in this case I'm frustrated by Bitmain's business practice and ethics. Batch 1 buyers paid $3319 for a 10 day competitive advantage in difficulty compared to the batch 2 buyers (who paid ~$3184 I believe) and are completely losing that. I think the ethical thing to do would be to refund the difference in cost between batch 1 and 2 and ship them all out at the same time. Always a gamble with new releases I suppose

can you post the whole "Pools" window? Mine looks like this:

I get paid properly the last days but I think that so many discarded shares must be bad right?
Also I had to lower 650 to 637... 650 suddenly went unstable but temps are now 56-60°C.

I think the z9's 1st batch will start shipping this weekend.  From what I gathered in the way they said delayed when I kept asking that's what I got out of it.  Either Saturday or Monday it will start shipping.  Just a heads up for everyone.  Pretty useless now anyways I almost could care less when it ships.  It's delayed, they failed, they fucked all of us.  Whatever we all lost money now. lol

yes, I do.
1,594 (100%) / 0 (0%)
Since the last (accidental) power off of all ASICs

No issues for us.

guys am i the only one who can't access the bitmain shop 3/4 of the day?

you got lucky. enjoy your victory. perhaps you got some leftovers from batch 1 that was thrown into the mix of batch 2. batch 3 is very iffy with some reporting perfect 750M OC while others say 500M and nothing else.

Room temp around 20-23°C but I forgot to install the fan so it sucks the air out instead of blowing. now it is really 10°C cooler.
Do you have 0 discarded shares?

My batch two mini's seem to be working exactly the same as batch one. I've commented on:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.45611806

with everything I did from start to finish if anyone's interested.

Unless you have bought the pro edition, you can't.
