Sounds like you'll need to build/allocate some sort of area to house the miner racks, provision AC power, exhaust hot air, etc..
any idea how much that will cost and what the hosting overhead might be?


Already have that covered for myself (100 units)
I have lots of space in my factory in China.
I'm no longer planning on hosting anybody else's machines though, it seems like alot of headache.

Still waiting on the official written quotes.. Will update as soon as I get it.

  • BTC difficulty jumps in Jan. 2018
  • BTC prices heading down
  • S9 price double from last month

= less enthusiasm than I had 6 weeks ago.  Still interested in several S9's.

are you already mining at your factory ? a few pics of some machines that are already running would be nice

There you go.
BTW I'm not going to ask anybody to send me any money/BTC .. I'm talking to them about paying directly to Bitmain.
Gosh some people around here are cynical assholes.

I don't have 500 yet, but it's a start (:
In any case it doesn't seem like there is enough interest at this point to get this done.
You are really saying there is no interest in buying S9s? Really?

My list is at about ~20 people right now, and I want to buy 100 myself.
But the minimum order will be 500
If you can find 380 more people who want in, it will happen.
Price will most likely be around $2500 but I'm waiting on the official quote and delivery date.
So you don't have a price or a delivery date and you expect people to commit? The problem is not the demand, there's plenty of it, the problem is that you are not making any sense.

I'm not asking anybody to commit at this point. Just say if they're interested to see if it's even possible to pull off.
Once I have enough people on the list, I'll ask Bitmain for exact dates. The answers I got so far on the phone are "dealer prices are 5% cheaper" and "We will ship large dealer batches before the individual orders from the site".

I'm in as well. I would be more interested in getting miners shipped to my location though it's out of China. Hope you agree. Thanks.

Plz pm me as I may not be able to check further updates in thread itself. So just buzz at PM so that I can look around. Would be interested in buying around 10 pcs and can be more if the pricing is great.

Also interested if legit. Would look to take 1 or 2 pallets worth (including PSU's) off your hands.

     To bad you are so far away, not that I couldn't enjoy the visit though. Anyways, sounds like you might be in the need for a board level technician sometime in the future(I don't see you sending boards overseas to have the basics reworked unfortunately). On the investment side however I would love to and on the ground floor of the creation of a new farm, please count me in as well.

 I've been around since Mt Gox, Hashfast, and now Nice Hash, I am convinced that an extensively diverse bitcoin portfolio is the way to minimize the inherent risk. Right now I am in multiple cloud services and coin, soon I will be in hardware personally as well, so I think getting in early on a farm Fits my model perfectly. At the moment I don't see any way my technical expertise can be of use but if there is anyway it can be, I'm at your disposal.
