Hi folks, I'd like to introduce myself, I work with Aegir at Advania and can help with any queries you have on hosting your mining equipment in our Thor Data Centre facility.

You can contact me directly on [email protected] or through PM on this site (or Brian_R at WHT). I'm online most of the time day and evening, so should be able to help pretty quickly in most cases.

Glad to see Advania active here.

How is the bitcoin payment integration going? I am sure that you know that payments are non-reversible and that you pay 0 fees for any payments that you receive and you also don't need to deal directly with bitcoins since you are receiving $ directly to your bank account. Please have a look at BitPay.com or BIPS.me.

Not currentyly though it is something we'll be considering for the future. The bitcoin situation is legally murky right now. The literal interpretation of the law in Iceland seems to imply bitcoin are illegal to transact in. Mining however is not something addressed by current law.
Adding in the currency controls that Iceland has had in place since 2008 makes this more of an issue too. One of my other projects was a political party here in Iceland (the Pirate Party of Iceland) and I'm aware they're at least discussing crypto currencies in committee there, but none of that would get resolved until after summer is over.
While I'm not a big fan of Auroracoin, the airdrop here at least forced the issue and introduced most of the population to the idea of bitcoin and crypto currencies.

Bitpay offers you direct $ payments so you won't have to deal directly with bitcoins. Isn't that helping?

Have you checked BIPS.me in addition of bitpay?

princeps; is a SP10 hosted at gekkoscience.com Thanks sidehack for getting it up and hashing with remote access on a Saturday, only an hour after receiving it.
gaederopus; is a SP10 hosted at michigan-colocation.com Top notch service!!
linguaefelis; is a SP10 hosted at minersource.net but Bobsag3 has yet to reply to me with remote access to my h/w. 11 days since last update.

That was 2 weeks ago. This is now...

I've OCed my SP10 s to get every last hash out. here's how they are performing at the various hosting providers.

Hosted with Mich-Colo
gaederopus (pre-May) hashing at 1.47Ths

Hosted with Sidehack from gekkoscience.com
princeps (slow May batch) hashing at 1.43Ths
linguaefelis (slow May batch) hashing at 1.44Ths

I've ended my hosting with Bobsag3 from MinerSource.net. They did a fantastic job with receiving and sending out my SP10. Easy and very efficient service, but unfortunately some router issues meant I had limited access to remote control and linguaefelis went on a 30hr road trip to Sidehack.

Does DataCell / Moria Datacenter allow Bitcoin payments for their hosting plans?

I know that Advania is atleast considering it for the future...

If you want to host bitcoin miners, you should really be accepting Bitcoin (possibly through bitpay etc.) as payment.

For those who are not from Iceland all company information can be found at https://www.rsk.is/ under fyrirtaekjaskra (namf is search by name)

This will usually list the kennitala (public tax number of the company) as well as the legal and mailing address. For instance you can try searching for my company here in Iceland (Icetor ehf.) or the datacenter project manager of Moria Datacenter (Datacell ehf.).

Additionally some of you may remember Datacell a few years back, as the company who sued and won against a Visa payment processor who started refusing Wikileaks donations.

There are only two large datacenters in keflavik here in Iceland. Advania and Verne Global, so intil Moria DC is built your miners are ending up in one of those two locations. I'll be happy to answer any other questions about hosting here in Iceland, but remember Caveat Emptor!

bitsmelter.io is a wholesale customer of Verne Global, just like CloudHashing and others. Our corporate entity is headquartered within Australia.

Price is one measure, but our true value comes from our customer service, security, expertise, reliability and trust.

I have emailed cameron at astoundcom and am awaiting reply.

technically I am still waiting for a response. I had to use the online contact form at their website to get a reply, and got this:

Code:

Hi Jason,

So we can start with a minimum of a single rack on a 12 or 24 month term.
Pricing posted is based on 24 month term. Does this work for you?

Thanks!

Cameron


Sent from my iPhone

and that has been the only reply I've had, even after replying to the above email with more questions. I have still to receive a meaningful reply from Cameron (President/Founder). Someone else might want to try. Maybe my emails went to Junk mail? But I wont be sending my h/w there.

MORE EDIT: Please always check Customs regulations for the country you are importing your h/w too. Customs can hold your package for weeks if you have not filled out your consignments to a certain criteria. Consider import duties and taxes should you declare your package over a certain value.

I received sad news from a follow miner looking for hosting in another country. H/w got held up at customs for a full week and was return to sender.

Today I'm very pleased to be able to finally offer bitcoin mining hosting here in Iceland through Moria Datacenter. We're currently in the process of building the DC in Keflavik and aim to be fully online by the end of August. This is a full 8MW DC built for the express purpose of hosting bitcoin mining. We offer natural but filtered air cooling, fire suppression system and 24/7 on site security. Please feel free to PM me for any additional questions you may have.

For anyone with hosted units in Iceland, is.centralcavern.uk:9332/static/ is a p2pool node located inside Thor Datacenter.

I have a ping of under 1ms to it, and pings from Iceland should be excellent.

This is the first p2pool node in Iceland afaik.

thanks Collider, the Middle East node is also nearly done - blockchain is ~3 weeks behind atm.
thinking of a site redesign - like some fashion house;

The Central Cavern
Amsterdam - Reykjavik - Rosh Haayin

just trying to add p2pool nodes in regions of the world which have none.

Prices look good on those racks.

Would definately be interested in a rack to fill with my sp10 / sp30 once available.

My question would be, are they able to cool the full 12kW per rack? What is their cold aisle temperature?

Also, on the bigger option: Try and tell them you don´t need a 100% SLA, 99% would be enough, you should be able to get prices down by atleast 30% with that.

PM me if you want further details.

Edit: jtoomim by the way please provide some kind of references because I don't feel that comfortable to send you miners at this point. We all know that there were a lot of scams and many trustworthy members vanished with hardware. It's nothing personal, but we are dealing with expensive equipment here.

Totally. We're all a bit busy at the moment, but we'll have more personal info up before we start accepting money. If you name something specific, I might be able to provide it.

I have shipped my SP10s to Troy, MI. http://www.michigan-colocation.com/index.php/server-colocation/bitcoin-miner-hosting
MichColo was very helpful and fast, sending me all the paperwork the moment I have asked for it. Got my IPs as soon as I have signed the paperwork, and managed to do all necessary stuff in less than 24 hours. Very professional so far, will let you know more, when my miners arrive and start mining.

I can concur http://www.michigan-colocation.com has been very professional thus far. They moved my SP10 from 110v to 208v as mentioned. They first contacted me to inform me of the move. I acknowledged and the next morning the SP10 was on 208v and i didn't even get a alert from my Pool to say the miner went down. Very efficient!!
