I would order one by one and sent to residential address. Pango's btc rate is usually decent and philipma is correct with duties would be about $1.1k. We're able to run duty free on these for about $1k after our service fee, so it's a wash IMO or maybe if you're ordering multiples it would add up of course. Our shipping rates will only get better with more volume so hopefully in future.

I had to shut down my small farm, but trying to get some direct service or will have to mine with an off peak rate to keep derp up but still might be looking at $0.07-8 kwh after fees, taxes and whatnot.

And Pangolinminer sells used 11T M3s for $50...
That price for that hashrate is truly astounding, irrespective of what its efficiency is. Do you know when I got one of the first 60Gh Avalon miners, the official price was 75BTC?

Its incredibly cheap... MicroBT has the advantage, the M10s are nearly the most efficient SHA256 miners and thats at 16nm, if they release a 7nm...

M10  the 31th does 31 th at 2200 watts. Or 21th at 1280 watts.

Shipped to USA at 880 usd with tariff hit or miss. So it could be 1100

If they build a 7nm. Based on bitmain getting 18th at 900 watts low speed s15 is 50 watts a th.

the m17 (my guess) would be the new one will be under 40 watts a th.

Nuts to think about, at least it lasted longer than a pizza.

Amazing... At today's BTC value, you could buy three, and still get enough change from a $1,000,000.00 to buy a burger AND fries...Smiley

You will, eventually. CPU's and GPU's will take much longer. S9's are cheap, gekko science has their newpac usb stick. So there are cost friendly options for hobbyists. I still mine with my gpu but won't go into much more detail on ck's thread as they mine altcoins to trade for BTC.

No GPU mining for me, but thanks for clarifying the key part of needing to get over the dust threshold first--0.001BTC reward, I presume--and *then* you're qualified to get in line... I see now.
No, the dust reward here is the lowest of any pool at 5640 satoshi (strictly speaking you can theoretically get even less than that as a reward if you get above the 5640, but by the time you get a payout, your share of the block is smaller rather than larger due to pool size fluctuations.)
Nice! Well, next time I fail over, I'll make sure it's good and proper! Grin

No, I'm quite sure you will never get enough hashes to ever get a payout even here. It's not a lucky 50, you still have to get above the dust threshold and then get in line. There's no luck involved at all. To get above dust threshold with a GPU miner here, you will have to mine for probably a decade with everything else being equal. That's not going to happen. Ergo don't.

P.S. - 'The Lucky 50' was a poorly phrased reference for the last 50 of the total 150 slated to get a payment on the next block.

I thought if you minded here long enough with any applicable miner that you'd eventually get join the round-robin of The Lucky 50 that get bumped from the Postponed to Payment group...

It's not a question of being "more profitable", you will never make the payment distribution list on this pool w/ GPUs

Actually, more like a F1 car against a 3-legged plow horse... Current ASIC-based miners are hundred's of thousands times faster than mining BTC using GPU's.

And its far more profitable to mine altcoins with the GPUs and then sell those for bitcoin than attempting to mine bitcoin directly with GPUs.
There are plenty of pools to choose from in the Pools (Altcoins) forum area, and some even automate the selling for BTC part!

hello

i hope I am not out of subject but, please tell me if it is a good idea to mine with Hive Os or if there is any other alternative tell me
thx

Being that it is HiveOS, I am guessing that your mining with GPU's..  If that is the case, gpu mining is actually discouraged here,
since your competing against asic miners (think F1 car against a pinto).. That said, any miner that can connect via stratum
can physically mine here.

Life's good at -ckpool
Temps today are above freezing instead of -40 (C or F) - I'll be tanning on the south deck if you're looking for me!
Have a great day, all... G
