Hello!
We now support NiceHash.com on our hosted cloud hashing service. Enjoy!
If you have any issues please contact us at [email protected]

Can you implement extranonce subscriptions to go along with the NiceHash GAW hosting support? Please...

"If your mining software does not implement extranonce subscriptions, then for every order swap, reconnect is needed. It can happen that in such case, your miner will switch to backup pool for few minutes before switching back to NiceHash."

@JHammer, I believe I saw a support ticket referring to this and forwarded on my knowledge concerning this. This should not be an issue. If so, let's keep it in the ticket for better tracking.

It is difficult to poll the forums for things like this as it increases in size Wink

I think 2 fury miners would be fair per blade purchase or can we just get BTC back instead of any product?

fair to who? both you and gawminers were screwed on this one, yet you want tthem to lose more stuff to you? they are already offering ssome compensation. ..thats already better than most companies out there

you knows there's always risk wth stuff like this

I admire Josh for even trying to do something about the price decreases.. But really In a way he is damned if he does and damned if he don't.. And it sounds like Gridspeed don't give a rats ass... At least Josh does...

Right now my blade is hashing at half it's advertised speed

Peamine,

Please see my post in the other thread, and please do get in touch with me, I will do everything in my power to sort this out.

-Jeff

I purchased 2 hosted blade miners. Paid $3100 (1600 & 1500) just before each price drop to $1,500 & $1,000 respectively, now they are worth $2,000. I don't think i will be buying any miners soon. Every time i buy one, the next day the price drops. I think I will just buy LTC or BTC instead. Why waste time mining. In the 2 weeks time, I have only mined about 6-7 LTC's so far. My $1600 $1500 blades will take 7-9 months to ROI without factoring in the difficulty increases. That's way too much risk...

That's very true. I've bad stories about pre-ordering mining equipment that's why I am not ordering anymore equipment. I've spent over $5000 GPUs and Gridseeds and got back only 1 btc back in the last 5 month. And $2000 was on the Blade and Single Gridseeds and now it's worth only $1200 or less. I've lost $800 more in a single week.
It is nice for GAW to compensate a little bit, but not enough to cover the lost in a short period.

The moral of the stories is, be a shovel seller.

While we do appreciate the questions, for competitive reasons, we have a very specific plan on what spec information we want to release and when. We encourage you to only buy when your comfortable and feel you have all the information you need.

Hi, this is an announcement thread (which is why it's in that section). You're more then welcome to make comments on other threads from us or others. But, because of the length of this thread, we are attempting to keep it focused on announcements, so people can easily find news about GAW Miners. Please respect that.

Hey Guys,

I still have not heard back from Gridseed, and I am getting tired of waiting. I know you guys are too.

First, I want to thank you for sticking in there. Second, I told you I would step up and make this right, even if they did not.

So here is what I am going to do. I am going to personally fund the purchase of a free Fury for every blade that was delivered (including hosting) from us from April 27th to May 4th. I will also provide a free 5 chip miner for all blades that were delivered (including hosting) from us from April 20th to April 26th.

I want to be clear, as of writing this, Gridseed has given us nothing the way of compensation. I will be personally funding these. The bottom line is this: I will not allow the way another company operates to screw our customers. Even if I have to prevent it myself.

This is why I am directing the majority of all our revenues in to "Project Prime". It will minimize, if not eliminate these kind of price drops. More coming soon.

Rest assured, we will always protect and do right by our customers. Thank you for your belief in us.

I will have someone come on later this weekend with info on how to redeem your free hardware

I ordered two blades when the website said they were in stock. Got an email saying they were shipped on the 7th, but all USPS has received is electronic info, no shipment. This is now two days after GAW said it shipped, but USPS has not received anything.

What happened to in-stock with immediate shipping? Shipping is not send out electronic info but holding merchandise.

Don't worry about it yet, same happened with me, day 3 i got ship info, and was here before day 5. All good.

Is anybody's blade down? I tried restarting mine but no luck. I already opened up a ticket, wondering if it is just me or not.

Well I got the two Gridseed 5-chip units I ordered. They shipped pretty quickly. GAWminers was nice enough to give me store credit when the price dropped $20 the day after I ordered them. I would have preferred to have know at the time of purchase the units had already been actively mining and I would be getting a couple plucked from GAWminer's farm. There is no mention of that on the product page.

Just dropping by to say I'm really loving doing business with GAW miners- great machines, great service. Really appreciate all the support I've been given with my initial issues. Keep it up guys, you're doing god's work here. Grin

With ASICS I believe the selling price is relative to the hashing power's value.
I'd pay three times the current price for a 5MH asic 3 months ago, and two times 2 months ago.
Most likely all producers are "burning them in/testing" and depending on the profit they can get running them vs selling them determines the price.
It usually seems to be around 100 days ROI based on current MH/BTC, though the difficulty curve has been more swift than that recently.

If someone had a 22nm ASIC, I doubt they'd even start selling it until daily profit was becoming less than what they'd make in 100~ days vs selling it and investing in something better(I'd probably buy X11 GPU farm hosting GAW).

So with GAW Miner's previous existing order upgrade to the new 5.2MH blades, they pretty much let everyone get a reset on their EOL at a deal.
That is quite honorable and was what brought me here, hopefully we get something similar this round =D

Also thanks for the stability update, went from 5.2 to 5.5MH 24 AVG

I think Gridseed need to do whats right or they will may lost a lot of business.

I disagree - gridseed does not have to do anything - gridseed is not the company that came out with a cheaper replacement - if they did..it would be a different story, but clearly they did not.

complain to zeus, gawminers and hashra for releasing faster/cheaper units.... LOL

Gridseed is partnering with Innosilicon (was supposed to be an "exclusive" partner but that was later retracted so not sure where that stands now), which have cheaper/more powerful units they claim will deliver sooner than Zeus. So it looks like there are two camps now - Innosilicon + partners vs Zeus + clones, and GAW and Gridseed found themselves on the opposite sides. It's kind expected to have some friction when a major reseller becomes a competitor. A bit of a pot and kettle argument going on here.
