Want to thank NotFuzzyWarm for the pool advice since I'm just trying to get back in the game. Looking for some advice on where you guys are colocating since current calculations are around $0.11/kwh which probably means I'll be taking a loss on running 5 x S9's. I've checked quotecolo so want to see what you guys are doing in terms of loss/profit.

Last time I checked, Oregon Mines still had some space available in their upcoming expansion scheduled for August.

I have 35 miners hosted there and have been happy with them so far.

I just see Bitmain machines, do they host Avalons and others? They are "semi-local" for me, so interested if I expand soon.

Yes, they do. I had Avalon 721, 741, and Ebit E9's hosted there until about 2 months ago when I replaced them. They did tell me they will not host the Whatsminer M3, when I inquired about several months ago.

Keep us posted on how you do. I'm actually surprised you can get $0.11/kwh (~$90/month) for 5. I would have thought it would be more expensive.

I use to run ( Cool

in my basement. What is your local home power cost?

I reversed the calculation to come to around $0.11/kwh. But that's per rig so cost will be $500+/month. I reside in California now so it's not feasible to run them here.

That's not bad at all, you can make coin off that.

Just Getting Started...

So $100.00/month per rig total? That's actually not a bad hosting fee. You'll at least be able to cover your costs and maybe make a bit.

Should be able to do better than .11 Hopefully you can pay your electric/hosting bill from your pocket, and let the rest of the BTC ride.

I want to thank Kano along with everyone else in this thread. I spent a good many hours reading through a lot of the posts here and have learned quite a bit. I bought my first Antminer S9 2 months ago and have been using Slush. As of 30 minutes ago, I've switched over to the Kano pool. I'm looking forward to mining with you all and slowly but surely expanding my home mining operation. Thanks again.

Welcome aboard - I try to be around as much as possible to reply/help - but there's lots of other here who will do that also on the thread

Also note, Discord is now certainly popular with over 120 people joined

@kano, would it require a lot of effort to cache our 2FA codes for say 30 days? I love having two factor to protect my account, but it is a bit of a pain to enter it every time.

Just curious.

No - it's 30 seconds and only works once.

30 days defeats the point of 2FA since it means if anyone hacked you with a key logger, they can login to your account ... for 30 days.
As it is - no one can do that.
They have to hack 2 things, your password and your 2FA device app and get the Secret Key.
Makes it a lot less likely.

Edit: and anyone guessing the 2FA number ... well 1million attempts at 30 seconds each will take a while

even if they got lucky and did it in 1% - 10,000 x 30 seconds is 3.5 days - though you'd be banned long before that Cheesy

... and then they'd have to guess the 2FA number again after they got in, to change anything, coz the secret key is certainly too big to try and guess.

+1 on the Avalons....although it took me awhile to figure out that [censored] raspberry pi! That was one thing that the antminers had better IMO (but you had to do it for each machine).

Somehow I've been around for half a year and am just hearing that Antminers don't need a RPi to control it... Mind = Boom

And coorespondingly, each antminer requires its own ethernet port on a switch, ethernet cable, etc. Not a biggie if you just have a few, significant if you have dozens or more. Each antimer will also require its own Awesome Miner license (e.g. 1 used per miner), where you can leverage 1 for up to 20 Avalons.
