Looking at the monthly charts. It' appears we could be nearing the 5 th leg. Watch close for sure:)

we were building an ascending triangle since last October (8 mo or so). This upmove is the breakout out of that triangle, so i don't know about wave count. We very well might correct here, who knows. Back in late april, i bought a few coins for an upcoming S9 purchase. S9 turned out to be overpriced in btc by 2X of what i was expecting (although I was projecting a ~10th miner, so less than 2X considering that it was 13-14Th), so i kept the coins for a nice gains so far.

Maybe in two mo i will be able to buy two S9 for these btc, as i was expecting in the first place.

EDIT: That said, those who will start mining on S9 from this Tue-Wed will enjoy the most $$ profitability (mining reward vs cost) we have seen in the last 3 years. Too bad it will last only a bit less than four weeks at this level. At current btc value I calculate $693 in revenue until halving per ea machine with $80-95 in electrical costs (at 8-10c/kwh).

I have 2 on tues maybe weds



I'll have 3 on Wednesday. Pretty excited to get some good mining gong.

Wow! Looks like this miner might actually ROI.

I guess the ones who got the first batch are at a huge advantage.

Well I dont know about roi in btc but maybe in fiat.  Looks like holding and buying more btc served me just well.  And I'm seeing some nice gains on the diff too.  Don't see any drop anytime soon.  Congrats on those that didn't bite for batch one.  Gonna save a nice chunk of btc when they go back for sale Grin

Best regards

I am happy with doing both hodl and buying batch 1.

My big decision is do I sell my remaining 3.5 coins or hold hoping for 700.

Well maybe bitmain miner still greyed out is a indicator that it may drop.  They looking in getting more btc. That is the goal here.  Since long term btc will continue to rise barring no catastrophes.  It's going up fast which is scary. I don't like bubbles. But I'd hate to also miss out on a huge spike.  Id say if You don't need to sell don't.  I'm regretting selling my btc that I tranferred from my eth mining last week.  Could be up another 300$ right now had I kept it in btc.  Meh can't win them all

Best regards

Sold .8  for 510 after fees.  Holding 2.75 for now.

Don't really need to sell but wanted at least some sold over 600 in case of crash.
Would be nice to see it move up again.
I will sell .8 more  if it goes to 700 this week.

I find the hardest thing about the game is taking profits Grin Grin




Hehehe that was a good one.  Cheesy  Wink

On your strategy that's prolly wise. It may top soon here.  But hell this could just be the first of many bigger legs. Hard to say.

Do you have a target price when to dump? My 20 S7s I just sold made me quite a few BTCs since last September. Haven't sold any except for buying some 390s and Nanos.


sell 20% now
sell 15% at 700
sell 15% at 800

not an exact science  but I sell off in bull runs in patterns like above.


my liquid btc was 3.5

I just sold .8btc at 640

I will sell   .7btc at 700

that would drop me to  2 coins.

 these were gear sales in the 540 to 580 a coin area.

If that's the one headed to my place, it's good information to know. I'll see about getting pictures up as soon as it arrives. And maybe see about a firmware dump if you don't mind me taking off the rear fan for a few minutes to look at the boards.

It's heading to your place, please post some pictures  Smiley I am forwarding you the shipping confirmation as well.

My 2 are marked shipped.

Now I am in an interesting spot.

I have 3.5 coins  which I got by selling gear to buy more s-9's.

I ordered a batch 2 so with luck that ships on Monday the 20th.

I could sell off the 3.5 coins  which were worth 2030 now worth 2230  gives me a 200 profit.

What about your ETH earnings? Do you hold your ETH? or sell for BTC?
I have been selling all eth until I fully roi all my eth gear.

which is going to be true in a few days.

So around Weds.

I will have   3 empty rigs that can all do 2 cards

I will have a 3 card r9 nano fully paid for.
I will have a 2 card r9 390 fully paid for.
I will have a 1 card r9 nano fully paid for.

I will then hold ½ eth and sell ½ eth.

Well June 12 in China, we should be getting shipping confirmations soon?

Well I was marked paid in the first hour of sales for batch 1 .

Now that coins went through the roof I am hoping they don't delay shipping for a few more days

IT is about 11:30 am in China the 12th of June.

My past shipping confirmations used to come in between 3-8 PM Beijing time although I never got one on a Sunday.

I am hoping they ship 11 pm tomorrow night.  which is 11 am Monday for,them.


Most likely it will ship a little later then that.  Maybe get noticed on Monday and it arrives on a wedsday

Mine is marked shipped as well and in FedEx possession, estimated delivery 6/14  Grin
