Topic: BITMAIN!! Make a 200-400 Watt miner!! - page 3. (Read 4423 times)
Large companies do not cater to the small fry. They could care less about the guy wanting to run a few tiny units in his apartment. If they spent all that money and R&D time to make a small miner....sure they might sell 1000 or so to the fools that dont care about losing money....but as a company they wont even recoup their costs on building it. So they build a larger miner and sell them by the thousands to mining farms and actually make money. Yet everyone wonders why they dont make smaller miners anymore when the answer seems pretty obvious. I mean all these companies used to make small miners...if they thought there was a market that could support them they would not have stopped.
Who says we want to mine anything other than bitcoin? Some people don't support altcoins.
Or you could easily be like me and many others you want a bit on all spectrums. I am running 4 of your sticks during the summer (an S5*, avalon* and an s3* (*in the winter for heat)), 2 moonlanders, and 5 gpu's running Eth, 5 750ti, 3 960 for feathercoin. I do this all in an apartment, so I spread the power and the hashes to many algo's as I can. It is for fun most of it.
I do it all to but would love to see some more of bit main stuff priced for home use and not be told by others suck up it, deal with it or how ever you want to put it or what way .
Same, most of it is for fun but that doesn't mean I/we can't have update to stuff either . That extra champ change or what ever anyone wants to call it i might get, does come in handy from time to time.
I'd rather see bitmain improve their firmware by using mainline cgminer instead of their terrible forked version....

You guys can just buy 1 GPU and mine ETH. It will use 200 watts.

Exactly. Don't bother with mining if you don't have free electricity at all. It just doesn't make sense at the moment and also it doesn't worth the trouble. Find a way to get free electricity only after then start mining.
spazzdla will burn his money how he sees fit.
yup fuck them it's not there life or money .

Some people like to spend money on fast cars or craft beers or shoes or any number of things many consider useless. Some people want to spend money on home-scale mining gear many consider useless.
I think of it like buying wrenches instead of taking a car to a mechanic. Some people like being more self-sufficient.

why can't more see it this way it has nothing to do with RoI but does which if we had these kind of miners everyone would have and kept the differently down and slowly increased it and bitmain Polly would have made more, they shut out a whole different group of buyer with the S7 to me said fuck you pretty much and (were just starting to see who really cares),they all ready had the market. so when I say : not every one worries about ROI and they come back with BS excuses, i don't say anything because no mater what i say there right ... and 2 post below yours proves that thought .

Avalon! Make a 200-400W miner! BitFury, support the development of 200-400W miners! Help wrestle some of the market away from Bitmain!
Same!! IT's not the price it's the fact I don't want to use 1200 Watts in my appt. 2-600 watts okay.
DO IT
DOOOOOOOOOOO IT.
Then I can get one. DOOOOOOOOOOO IT.
