Okay going to lock this one.

the new one is here.


https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/diff-thread-oct-1-to-oct-14-picks-are-closed-2x-bonus-a-surprise-1197739

Maybe they feel its redundant to always address customer's concerns with "Your concerns will be addressed." over and over and over again. I mean their communication isint really up to snuff when they use "Second hand S5" for their last S5 batch that was used hardware but not second hand at all.

But the 10 days iirc was from 21 to 30 sept? So every day now is one more officially "late" day.

For the L1 they refunded using the original USD price, which due to a drop in BTC exchange rate was a good deal. And they gave extra BTC if you took the refund as a coupon.

Something like that would be nice for the S7 B1 but there is no competition now so Bitmain might just throw their "10 days" excuse at us. If there was a compensation planned then yesterday (before the holiday) would have been a good time to announce it or at least assure that shipments will happen before the 10th.

I have a feeling some will be issued coupons.   Don't know if they will be worth the delay though.  But with the holiday it's pretty amazing some will have missed the 10 day window  after listed.   

So i personally wonder if maybe they oversold the first batch compared to what they had made, or if they simply did not get them shipped out.  Either way I think we will see batch one shipped out before 2-3.  But still will be some not happy in batch 1 if they dont get something for delay.  And in past they have done coupons a lot.  On L1 that they completely decided not to do it was a refund of it + a little amount or a coupon I believe if I rember right.  Been a long time since L1 happenings.

There's still people complaining that Batch 1 didn't ship out for them yet, while they already paid for it. Meanwhile there's batch 2 and 3 for less price than they paid and they didnt even ship them out yet.

Sound to me like there's going to be a lot of complaining for a while.

TLDR: The full scope of Batch 1/2/3 is yet to be seen. But i'm sure we could extrapolate by stalking Bitmain's btc address and transaction trail.

Congrats to edonkey and thanks for the rollover. Yes I think we were lucky this time round. We might also be lucky on the next one because of the Holiday delaying shipments? However.. if we are lucky on the next one, the one after that is going to be a bigggeee.

I think Bitmain should already have all of their S7s deployed, right?  So I expect the next diff jumps to include all of the S7s that have been shipped out around the world.  I though we'd see a big jump this time, but we took a negative dive right at the beginning, then climbed back to +2.5%.  If we didn't start this adjustment negative then the + adjustment would have been much greater, but still not much more than 5%.  Of course 5% adjustment today is a much larger number than a 5% adjustment a year ago.  I've been mining only a couple months but the diff has grown 50% in the time I've been active, ~40G to 60G today, wow!

Plot twist - there is no reward payout this time because edonkey decided to let the reward roll over.

In other words, the next reward is going to be 0.2 BTC: 0.1 BTC contributed by edonkey, plus the regular 0.1 BTC.

Congratulations again to the winner and big thanks for spicing up the game and of course you get this:

BRAGGING RIGHTS

I actually think we will get a near steady diff this next two weeks as bitmain and rest of china on holidays till 9th.. Assuming they get everything shipped by the 14 th .. it looks like unless the other asic manu. start putting more online then it may slack a bit.. Well at least i hope so anyway.. Congrats edonkey on getting it right this round.. Ill try to put mine in for next thread soon as it comes.. Seems they get filled in quick with the slots i like:)

Best Regards

Congratz it's nice to see a difficulty less then 5.   So I consider this a win.

We will have to wait and see I really hop once batch 2-3 on S7 ship we don't see 5's again.

congrats !

I was sure I was getting this one

At last! One of the cats came through FTW!

The other cat is jealous now. Maybe she'll try harder next time.

They're not like Garfield though. Fishy treats are way better than lasagna.

Congrats for the prize, we got a pretty acceptable difficulty raise. And now let the S7 waves kicks in. The next difficulty raise may very well look a bit more "interesting". About all first 3 batches of S7s should hit/start hitting soon enough to see what they can do to the difficulty for real.

The cats finally did it!

edonkey - bake a lasagna for your cats and let me know your BTC address.

We did a mad rush of blocks. +2.49%

East coast of USA is going to have a H-Cane

I wonder if it will be like Sandy and knock out power for days.
