Topic: Bitmain looks like they're releasing a 15GH/s DASH miner called the AntMiner D3 - page 57. (Read 299686 times)

anybody know when the hek is bitmain going to be shipping these PSU's??

I recommend you to hold it rather than selling it at that price, you don't know the future, had you checked out this guy's modded firmware?

But if you still want to sell, i would like to take the PSU from you.

In the New York agreement, developers of Bitcoin ecosystems suggested the implementation of SegWit and the glorious Bitmain gave a crisis and did not accept.

Because?

Your equipment would lose its advantage, ASICBoost is not compatible with Segwit.

https://medium.com/@WhalePanda/asicboost-the-reason-why-bitmain-blocked-segwit-901fd346ee9f

Supposedly Bitcoin Cash was created to improve ecosystems with the implantation of blocks larger than 1mb, however, such improvement is not in fact, being used, some blocks at peak times were higher than 1mb, see the chart:

https://fork.lol/blocks/size

The truth, Bitmain saw that it could not insure SegWit, so, not to lose its advantage with ASICBoost, decided to create Bitcoin Cash, surprisingly, in a few days the company made more than 100 million with Bitcoin Cash.

How did Bitmain value Bitcoin Cash so much?

Today you only buy an Antminer S9, certainly the most sought after mining on the planet, only with Bitcoin Cash, see the link in the payment window.

Conclusion - We can see that Bitmain manipulates the market in every way. In January 2018 there will be about 50,000 people rioting in Bitmain because they bought a toaster, Antminer D3.

To fight with an unscrupulous company of this size, I see only one way, let's unite, so we'll have a voice.

See the emails we receive from Bitmain are copies of each other.

I created a group in gmail to try to group as many people as possible. Anyone can help manage the group.

Hey guys, cut my price to 750$ for both D3 and Power supply putting D3 at 600$ alone. Would like to sell together and if someone feels they have more luck than me this is probably a good deal for you. I can't be bothered trying to get a higher deal so I cut it by 200$. This is where price will be staying for the time being. PM me or find me below at these contacts.

EDIT: SOLD!

yeah, evga's are too expensive...       APW3++ are not UL certified in US.   I need a UL certified for some reason    - but not so expensive as EVGA.

EVGA's are good but expensive as Hell. You can find Antminer APW3+++ for $200.00 on amazon sometimes.

Anybody can recommend "UL certified" power supply for Antminers?

750$ is too much, 500 can be ok, if you have very cheap electricity

Hi there,

I'm new poster user on forum, but it's been long time since I follow threads here.

I'm interested on buying antminer d3 with psu for U$$ 750,00 in USA only. If you have let me know. Payment on eBay only with credit card.

I'm only taking comfort in the fact of I'd pay the IRS 50% of what I paid for the beasts, if I did not get them ..admittedly, I should have gotten 2 L3+'s for about the
same price, at the time with bitmain psu's...but still..it will be that close this year with IRS in that it is kinda a wash....(a bit of money is going into Solo 401k as
a small business...same tax write off advantages as equipment...and you can use it to 'bank' whatever cytpo in the solo 401k...so I should always fill that bucket
first on mining..then the equip angle)

these guys

https://www.checkbookira.com/ ..Not cheap: but a better option than tossing money to IRS this year, IMHO.

Also, you can get your miner equip all applied to taxes owed THIS YEAR, for the full 25% in real money...APPLIED to taxes you know you already owe...again existing miners
can play this game...and no matter the games below, I will still owe IRS some $$$ this year...

thus, I'm done with equip deductions in mass at this time,  in truth (with the overflow of only so much into the solo 401k) of looking at worse at a 25% loss in these units....(only applies to this weird year of growth)..again filling the solo 401k first with 30k or so...seems more prudent with them being more or less the same as equip writeoffs on gross income.

NOW, to the point on here....what I'm doing is ALL my mining of the D3's are on www.prohashing.com and I myself am mining ALL TO LTC (pick your crypto poison)

In my view, I have a hard time believing (with my other scrypt pow knc titan  and bitmain miners) that at $7k to $8k BTC ..that LTC won't at least be at worse

$100 and my own bet is $150 if not $300...so besides the Bitmain D3 x11 miners (2=$4k with psu/etc investment). ALL MY MINERS ARE SLAMMING OUT LTC ON THIS BET...to

be fair on my 'supposed' angle on mining....this year anyway...

thus IF I can get 3x the price out of LTC, say $300 bucks., eventually, on an LTC (or pick your crypto) price pump...all you need is your coin of choice to pop 3x in price (more or less)

IF ABOVE SUPPOSITION IS KINDA CORRECT (dubious)

I JUST MAY, sometime next year in 2018, IF VERY, VERY LUCKY, get my above 25% of the cost back (in paying the IRS anyway, at 50% rate and the added 25% equip deduction on these door stops of D3's ) WITH electric and call it a wash....I could very well end up with the USD i put in with the USD I put out...(sucks...but still) again, assuming I did zip and just paid IRS.

.....(whatever gets me thru the day)

it is THAT unlikely, with the above 'ego juggle' that I will ever get even that 25% back in real $$ and electric, etc..that is how UGLY this all is....very dire...

But, it is the HAIL MARY PASS, I am attempting at this time

I suppose you could pick/choose the next x11 coin to pop, or assume DASH will triple in price, at now worse odds....or say Helium x11 coin, could

unicorn drop out of the sky to save SOME ROI on these D3 space heaters...but again....this 25% back for anyone with electricity, may very well still be a long shot,

lame as that may be....again the whole x11 difficulty is that bad...(what I would pay for more algo's then x11 on a firmware fix is embarrassing)


*yeah, I don't think there is a chance in hell either...but my fragile ego demands I try*

But, something of some major note, will have to break our way, in x11 mining....or ..well.....you know.....plop!

I feel sorry for the new miners, that have no options on the game I'm playing above ...

anyway, likely a big unicorn dream....but I sure missed the turn on this path and walked right into the door edge...(smarts it does)

Anyway, what I'm doing to salvage my pride...(likely that is lost) but still....

bitmain: Where 'evil' kills your dreams......) (tm bitmain)

note: sorry about the free flow nature of my posts and length ..but I type as fast as I think and kinda just let it go out there like any rant we would
have on this kind of crypto discussions we have on here on bitcointalk in person

the length is not a big deal time wise

the rambling, well, that likely will not go away...if I drive you nuts ...feel free to put me on /ignore, I won't mind

My D3 was shipped three weeks ago but BITMAIN don't ship power PSU yet.
It is unacceptable that BITMAIN customer care don't replay to any inquiry or support ticket.
Now D3, with electricity bill of 0.24-0.27 Euro/Kwh are only a very expensive heater.

Cheers

Guys, check out this guy's modded firmware for D3.

Yeah these things are stsrting to look very unprofitable as we speak. Even with the price spike of dash i dont think we can be saved or roi anytime soon. On top of that my miners had been held up at custom and most likely will be sent back to bitmain now, with me paying more on top for china importation taxes. Unbelievable, this has been a nightmare with the d3 miners for me. Hope bitmain does something to soften my fall. Highly doubt it though.

For those that use Granatgas: is it better to be paid in Dash or BTC?  Does BTC have higher fees so better to avoid?

I agree, some of mine are at 431, some even at 400 to keep my temps under 70. Been running fine around 13.5-15 GH and stable.

Hey looks like I bit the bullet too heh. I've got a D3 Miner and APW3++ never opened, new, unused and would sell these for 950ish for both. 800-850 for just the Miner. I live in US and would be happy to sell them together to somebody out there who is willing to weather the storm. Imgur link of proof below. PM me if you are interested or write me on contact info below. Also as a side note what is the likelihood X11 will recover for next year?

Ahhhhhh crapppp.

I've made $25 USD in a few days so far using D3, A5's are gonna kill the difficulty even more once they all go online.. OMG

Expect it to get worse before it gets any better. People are just now starting to plug in their Innosilicon A5's
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa8cw5aeIkQ (pretty much first hand look of the A5 in action that wasn't posted by Innosilicon)

By the end of the month, there could potentially be 1000's plugged in.

Still no signs of PSUs (November batch) from Bitmain.

Dash difficulty 95million!!

$3 per day BEFORE electricity... Even at 10c per K/wh that's only 50c a day profit. Most people are losing money now.

What an absolute pile of shit these are!
