The site said it was sold out on orders. Somebody's going to be crying or jumping for joy. The resaleres are asking 5/6K for each on Ebay. If this is a real miner it's better to order from the manufacturer at a good price point and be covered by there warranty which looks good on there spec sheet. I can't afford there 5 unit order but an escrow for a group buy would be more to my affordability.

There is a (POSABLE) new miner out called Dragonmint miner. I saw it on Ebay for preorder and on Bitcointalk. It's supposed to hit 16TH. If it is legit it's great for mining and it's not Bitmain's. Launch date is March/April My advice is to wait and see before putting any money into a preorder.

I saw this back in November https://www.crypto-news.net/dragonmint-16t-miner-announced-and-available-for-pre-order/

I cannot remember where but I also remember reading that they are $1595 each with a minimum order of 5. Any of us who have been around a long time will run a mile at the words 'Pre-Order' so I'll second your advice to wait until there is an actual product shipping.

Good to see the hash rate of the pool up so high, almost 6000Th when I looked a second ago!
However made my excitement at regularly being in the Top 20 when I got my second miner very short-lived! :-D
Hope Cryptokeeper is wearing ear-muffs being surrounded by all those miners.

Any suggestion other than Chinese Antminers?
I'd definitely refuse those because there was already countable speculations that they had untrustworthy firmware codes.


Finding a miner not Made in China is like finding a brand new miner... they don't really exist.  What you can do is purchase a Made in China miner that has been refurbished in the United States by a reputable retailer who will have installed legit firmware on the machine.  It will surely be configured to point to the retailer's own mining pool out of the box, but then once it's on, just point it to Bitminter servers with your username and that's about as straight as you can shoot in the shady world of bitcoin mining.




That's what I was thinking.
Thanks Haterson915, Happy New Year and Happy Mining!

Hi! I am interested in mining using Bitminter. I would like to ask last month I have used Bitminter then I stop mining for 3 weeks and opened again and I did not found my previous mined BTC? I would like to ask also if I could use video card lower than GT1070? Thank you.

You can't mine bitcoin with a PC anymore. You need to buy a modern bitcoin ASIC miner (not the ancient USB-based ones). 1000 GH/s is now extremely slow - the fastest miner right now I believe does 16000 GH/s.

What disappeared was not BTC, it was the session statistics showing how much work you did this session. If you log into the website you can see the work you have done over all time under "my account" -> "workers" in the website menu.

Your balance in bitcoin you can see under "my account" -> "overview". You get paid when blocks are found.

Thanks for your response.
So it sounds like whatever USB based Asic days gone for good?

Chinese have over 95% of the market.   If you want to play, you have to learn how to swim and speak Chinese.

So I am asking here for the next phase of my project that will be on Gekkoscience 2PAC farm.
It'd be deeply appreciated if anyone can share their experience with them, just in terms of per second hash performance and amp/voltage limitation.

Don't buy them. They are completely obsolete and useless.

Today 1000 GH/s is extremely slow. Don't buy an old USB miner.

Hi. all

I am a newbie here just getting my toe dipped with old AMD GPU in a dusty Pavilion, working literally hard pushing at 69mhps.
I did this just to get the feel of what it is like and guess what!  I earned 0.00...6! BTC couple of days ago!
Now that was a complete knockout beating my absolute zero expectation Smiley
Way to Go, Bitminter!

P.S.: Bitminter's web and client interface is by far one of the best among what I've surfed around.  Great works!

We are having difficulties delivering email to hotmail/live/msn/outlook addresses.

Many users of these services are reporting our emails as spam. Especially common is to create an account and when we send an email confirmation link, they mark it as spam. This in combination with Microsoft's very aggressive anti-spam system is making it hard to deliver email to these addresses.

We have a new fast mining server up and running in Winnipeg, Canada.

This should be a good option for the new mining operations currently starting up in Canada. It can also be a good option for some miners in the US, depending on where they are located.

You can connect your ASIC miners to the new Canadian server at ca1.bitminter.com:3333


Hello from Russia, DrHaribo !
I have very little experience and started to study this forum to find a good pool that is not widely known and with which I can become indecently rich!))
I liked your project and you are pleasant to me as a kind man and an expert in mining business, you put your soul into your work - you a winner, thanks for I  having the opportunity to work on your pool. I`m add my 23 T/h, of course it's a drop in the bucket, but I believe that I'll be lucky and in a couple of months I will be able to increase to 50 tons by placing workers on the bitminter !

P.S. Is there a safe place to buy from one?

Ideally, if you can find something reasonably local to you and see it working before you part with your payment. Failing that this forum is a good place as you can see if the person selling has good trust feedback and also use an escrow service. Check out Bitcoin Forum > Economy > Marketplace > Goods https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=51.0 to see if you can find one or place a WTB want to buy thread.

Aloha MikeStang,

Thanks for the tip.

That's the perfect price point.

It's hard to tell what's fake or real.

Is there a safe place to buy from?

Thanks,
eMiner
