Does anyone know what an estimated difficulty increase would be like, for example how much will a d3 miner make at the end of sept how much will one make at the end of october and how long would one make after the end of november?

Don't forget the iBelink miners that are showing up in peoples hands today, and the shipment that will be going out in Oct.  Also the Innosilicon A5's that will ship in October, and now pre-order for Nov is about to open up with the A5.  Add that all to the hash that Bitmain will add in Sept, Oct, Nov...

And nobody knows the number of miners in each of these batches.  And there are very few coins that are X11 that are profitable to mine so most of that hash will be pointed at Dash.  So it is a perfect storm and going to be a nightmare.

Anybody else still got there order flagged as expired? Mine was paid Friday within the week your time frame.
Yes. My PSU order says expired and unpaid. And my D3 order says paying and expired.
Paid both orders by btc and both accounts have been debited to the last satoshi and yet expired is the status.

Just got my 2 other orders.

I'm all set with my orders paid via BTC.

I have 4 D3 with 4 PSU for NOv.

I may be interested in selling 1 if the price is right.

I think Bitmain is doing to do what they did for LTC to Dash. If so, this is good news, but we will see moving forward.

Its funny how we are rushing to order our d3's and count our blessing when we do order, but we are all nervous ordering something 3 months out hoping network difficulty doesn't rise too much and price holds up for all of us.

There is always that nagging feeling back of our heads that a D3+ is coming soon and so is L4 (1 ghs) because its natural progression for things to improve/get faster/ better.


Bitmain as any tech company needs to come out with faster/greatest and best items... otherwise they will go the route of oblivion.

gotta let a coin be a coin
Bought couple of units, probably was a bad a idea. Did some forward projections with last 8 weeks as a past sample size, looks like we will lucky to make 10 bucks a day when the November batch comeouts for D3


That is about what I came up with also is we will be lucky to see $10 a day out of these... And that may be a little too optimistic.  All depends on how many miners they are shipping from each of the vendors and what Bitmain is going to be shipping.  Maybe you'll catch a break if Bitmain sales choke off the sales of the other miners.  Hard to know.

I know my Baikal's are just getting destroyed already so I don't think they will continue to run for a lot longer with the way things are collapsing already.

I don't think it will be nearly that bad and I'm optimistic it will actually be much better. If I'm completely wrong and it only mined exactly $10/day indefinitely (for the sake of easy math), it would still only take 7 months (216.5 days) to reach 100% ROI @ $0.10/kWh ($2.88/day in electricity = $7.12/day profit). If that's the worst case scenario, then this seems like a REALLY good bet to me.

Sure mate because coz we all know ROI always will stays constant at 10 bucks a month and difficulty and all other factors wont reduce it. lol!

$10/day was the number that was suggested, I just ran with it. Nobody actually believes the profit per day will stay constant. I think it will actually be much better than $10/day. So do lots of other people apparently. We could all be wrong, but I prefer to be optimistic.

Full disclosure: I don't have a crystal ball.

Fair enough I see what you mean... In my high level feeling, only people making money out of this is Bitmain and the re-sellers Smiley

Don't get too discouraged. Dash may take off and go up to $500 or something. I think you all will make some decent coin out of the miners. Last time I bought mining equipment bitcoin was around $150. Now it is $4000. I would have never guessed it would have gone up so much in a few years.

Just received an email confirmation that my November order was paid (bitcoin). I wish I would have used litecoin to pay since it would have been much much faster to confirm.

Dang....wish I'd hear something.....glad to hear someone is there working on the weekend....hopefully I'll hear something soon..

hi, Does anyone have Dash mining profitability formula that is based on network hash rate and our miners hashing power?

What is a good mining pool for Dash with less fees and better payout?
