Im actually jealous of the October batch compared to September, at least they got a 1100$ discount, ROI may be  easier for them. Depends on future difficulty but hopefully most yet to be shipped miners are mining  now which won't skyrocket the hash rate too much. Bring on helium


You are aware that even with helium we still got only a hand full of coins and if it is new = low diff everyone will jump on it. In the end, it won't really make any difference to the momentary situation.

It' a good beginning but it won't solve our problem  Undecided

I'd be willing to part with my D3 for a price.  It's a nice device, haven't had any issues but my wife is distinctly unhappy with the sound.  Can't argue with that, these things ARE loud.

You can make Isolated box, just search on youtube, and you will lower it from 75 to 50 db noise level

Or you could give it away rather make your wife unhappy.. LOL

I gone build a box with plasterboard and stonewool (non burneble material). The output heat i put in the cavity stone wall. That will reduce the moist in the walls and lower my heating cost during the winter  Cool
Can you share the pictures, please ?  Cheesy Cheesy

As soon as HeliumPay blockchain launches , D3 would be very useful on this mining HLM .
When it is going to happen ?

As soon as HeliumPay blockchain launches , D3 would be very useful on this mining HLM . First batch of blocks would reward good amount of HLM. It will only take 1000 HLM to launch a masternode so D3 owners may scramble to set up their mining device fast.
I fail to understand why a helium fork of dash shall be better than dash. Go see sumokoin which is a fork of monero and check it's valutation.

Also, un current valuation of dash, a master node will give you 4-5% return for that 1000 you shell in. There are safer places to put your money.

From my perspective there is one glimmer of hope on the D3 front. Many, many, many of these servers ended up in the hands of resellers speculating on their aftermarket value. That fell off of a cliff very rapidly and many of those have not sold. Nor will they. Until those people take their lumps. Every day you see several D3's and L3+'s, offered for sale in the marketplace forum, Ebay, Amazon etc etc.. Still at absolutely ridiculous prices. Sooner or later these poor chumps will be puking those things all over the forums once they realize they are taking an ass whooping. Keep some cash handy because THAT's when you'll want to buy those units.

I'm still seeing people trying to sell them at ridiculous prices in here.

If you really want to sell it, make the price reasonable.

People don't realize before buying these are commercial grade machines. The noise, power, and heat was never really meant for in home application.

My D3 is running at 45% fan speed, noise can be handle, u need another room at least.

I planning to do some acoustic isolation, actually people sleep on the other room, they share same wall.


What's your ROI with the current difficulty?

I start running them on 21 September, with time to fix for good pool, do some test per my self etc ...

I made approximately 0.12 DASH per day, per miner.

Does anyone have problem when some miners losing 3rd board and hashing 10-11 Ghs? This happens on many D3 miners, not just on one.
Miners works on default settings, temperatures are good, max board temperatures are 65-70C. After I restart D3, all boards working normally again for some time.
Is there some firmware upgrade for this problem, anyone have solution for this?
D3 is not stable miner at all. L3+ is a lot better device.

It's always risky getting batch one items from Bitmain.  They don't have a stellar reputation for the first batch working the greatest.

I think the first earnings on the D3's more than compensated for that  Grin Cool
people who bought the oct batch would be right about on par w/ me as far as ROI goes if I still had mine. Only one who benefitted from that was bitmain / dash masternodes

I will also have a D3 (its coming Oct. 15 - 25) I can let it go as well (if the noise is too loud I won't really want it in my house) if anyone is interested please PM me we can do it through escrow as well Smiley

I've posted similar question on L3+ board for L3+'s. I also have the same question for D3s. I've seen different numbers from 200 to 250, but does anyone know the true D3 CFM?
