Topic: GAW Hashlet ROI Tracking - page 2. (Read 9925 times)

Well done! I'm about 65% now currently with just my daily incomes (including the "boost" function). However, a great ROI can already be made by selling the hashlets. Although I'm not sure how much $ this would exactly give me now, as the "selling" option has changed recently.

9/28/14: I am now 85.6% ROI in terms of bitcoin!!

I'll keep you guys updated. Also this is without using the "boost" on the hashlet primes.

So my hashlet prime is still paying out roughly the same amount of bitcoins per day (0.00063178 yesterday) even though the rate of the hashlet solo's IE the multihashlet is only paying out 0.00029489 BTC per day. And those numbers are WITHOUT me using the free 50% boost on my hashlet prime daily    Whatever Gaw is doing on their zenpool with the hashlet's prime is definitely worth my ROI time not getting any worse.


I haven't reached ROI YET, but I am getting close

Is scrypt coin difficulty growing as fast as BTC difficulty ?

I'm in a similar situation. I bought hardware that was converted to primes. Mined with them for a while and made some btc that haven't added up but at least 30-40% of my initial investment.
Then i decided to sell at 90 times daily payout as of that day. Unluckily, it was right before the buy back. I could have made more, but oh well....ball park estimate i made at least 50% over my initial investment

Well... tbh, I'm happy with whole GAW deal.
I got 230% of my cash out (100% invested + 130% extra earning).

Bought hashlets, mined 30% of their value, sold them...

Why sell them?

Well, when I bought them I expected ROI within 3 months, and everything above is a bonus.
Known issue is difficulty ramping up, and uncertainty of what will happen, especially with new ASIC's on horizon.

While in long haul I might have earned more by keeping them, in short run - this is nice profit

From what I've seen so far, no.

does boosting cost $?

9/15/14: I am now 52.4% ROI in terms of bitcoin!! and not even 30 days have passed

And don't forget they gave me an extra hashlet for owning a hashlet prime and the hashlet primes now have a 150% boost every 12 hours (meaning I can activate it twice a day)

That's a nice update for this topic, thanks!

I already am 1/4 of my ROI. I bought the hashlets quite early, so it is automatically updated to a Prime hashlet (for the Original price of 0.04 BTC) and I also received free "Solo gift hashlets" due to I bought them quite early.  Looks like this is going to be my first investment with an actual ROI (and some profit) .

I'm wondering what features they would add for Prime hashlets. Maybe they'll make us able to connect to a pool WE WANT OURSELVES, so, for example, a private pool of someone for mining DigitalCoin or GuldenCoin. That would be nice too , allthough the daily profits of the Zen pool are great too.

Added this to the OP

Estimated Zen Solo Hashlet ROI time in days:

So currently the Zen Solo's cost 20.85 aka 0.0438 BTC for 1 MH/s. Each MH/s makes 0.00063617 BTC per day. Now if the zenpool payout per day stayed constant the machine would reach 100% ROI in 69 days. However, with difficulty increases of each coin and usually decreasing cost of altcoins the payout per day should be decreasing pretty quickly. HOWEVER, zenpool payouts on 8/21/14 were 0.00065055 BTC/MH/day and now its only declined to  0.00063617 BTC/Mh/day which is only a 2.3% decline over almost a full month! This intentionally does not account for the $0.08 fee per MH, which could increase in BTC amount if price goes up, or could become nearly no BTC fee if BTC price goes up as many people are projecting.

Lets extrapolate 2.3% decline in BTC for for the 69 day projected ROI and we get an estimated ROI time of 72 days (compounding decline).

Zen Primes will need to have some cool features added to them before I believe that this will be a clearly profitable hashlet to go with. The biggest thing they could add to these right now would be the ability to mine different algorithms as scrypt already has a LOT of competition and thus lower prices. With that being said, I also expect them to increase the price of the hashlet primes along if/when they ever add the other algorithms to them, because at that point they profitability will most likely increase quite nicely

I got in early too, but was considering making another large purchase, but wanted to look at some data first.  Just curious if someone had down that analysis already or not

Excellent dude, nice one! Only got onto the hashlets recently, looking good so far though.

I purchased my gear on 08/13/14 and i'm already at 44.7% ROI

I was curious if there is a resource for calculating or approximating new purchases now and the liklihood of achieving ROI? (similar to the genesis block calculator).

Also just found your link for the 1.5% - I wanted to utilize it but wanted to see some ROI calculations first.

Thanks!

Well it has now been 10 days since I bought the Gaw Hashlet scrypt miner power. Just 10 days in and I'm already at 19% ROI with absolutely no electricity or cooling cost to myself (I subtract their $0.08 in fees from all of my calculations). And just 6 hours ago they gave me a free multipool hashlet, which is awesome, but I will not be accounting for the free extra mining power they gave in my ROI calculations to keep everything fair.

The bitcoin revenue per day is finally starting to decrease (although not by much) and thus a lengthening of the ROI time if it could still be bought today for the original price is occurring. It does look like it will make 100%+ ROI prior to becoming worthless though.

The double payout by gaw miners on 8/27/14 definitely was a nice boost in BTC for the day. I've had the miner for 8 days now and it's currently looking like it will take another 46 days to reach 100% ROI, unless GAW has anymore surprise power boosts in store for us

Hopefully when my MH/s get upgraded to the Hashlet primes they will have some nice features or increased hash points potentially at some time. Also these figures don't account for the hash points that I'm accumulating to buy new free hardware, which inherently has some value to it.

BitcoinPokerBro I told you this "Ok I see it. Let me make sure that GAW doesn't run with everyone's money over the weekend, and if they respond to me tomorrow (Monday) I'll send you the coins. Only reason I have this check in place right now is because they were supposed to contact me last Friday, but suddenly they are out of the office..."

They did not respond to me on monday and thus I haven't sent the coins. I was finally contacted by GAW today and they said they are sending a wire transfer (instead of the BTC payment that I wanted). So far I see no wire transfer, but with it being past 5pm my time I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and hope I see it tomorrow. If the wire transfer goes through tomorrow then you will receive your BTC. If gaw miners is running with the BTC then I won't be able to get it back for you. But I'm trying to get you your discount from them on a daily basis, give me some time and I haven't forgot about you.

I also added you to my public list of people I will be giving BTC Back to if GAW doesn't run with it here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/gaw-miner-discounts-including-hashstaker-and-hashlets-750909

Hash rate was doubled for a promotion. I also haven't received a bitcoin payout for today 8/27/14, but it usually occurs in the middle of the night for my time. I have received my 8/26/14 payout and I expect the 8/27/14 payout to be in my account tomorrow (which is why my updates are always 1 day behind)

regarding hash rates/graphs, I think they were having problems with them since introducing merging of hashlets. Seems to be reconciled today, but still keeping a close eye on their profiability.

Now that they are 24.99, I won't be getting any more though.
