Anybody with me?

Nope, I'm still on block Thursday.

Evil beware: We have waffles!

Our favorite reviewer philipma1957 is supposed to be getting one in April(ish) and could probably do remote access to it for ya to poke around and play with... Considering he favors the smaller pools should be right up his alley.

You probably have already read my feelings about Halong's corporate attitude so I could really care less about getting a miner from them but - as someone else has said, now that the AB patent is open to all it should be a safe bet that the other makers such as Canaan et al will at some point include AB in their chips.

If Canaan, eBang, Bitfury and push comes to shove, Bitmain, decide to join the AB club then I'll care if our pool supports it. Until then, meh.

edit: And in the time it took to post this I see wavelengthsf has chosen to be a guinea pig by ordering one and made the offer!
Kudos and +1 merit fer ya!

Kano- do you think you'd make the stratum changes on this pool to support the new overt ASICBOOST?

Not before getting access to one.
I'm not stupid enough to assume any code is just going to work when created by a certain person who loses blocks on his pools and calls that 'misfortune'
Testing properly is a way to avoid that Tongue

But hackers usually have no idea about such things.
Experience tells you otherwise.

So if they don't actually exist ... then no they wont be supported Cheesy

I ordered one - so if I get it, I'd be open to sending it to you to test / integrate (and trust you'd send it back

)

No need to send it to me - just to point it somewhere and let me test it properly and see what happens.

Kano, on the pool site, is the number of users actual accounts, or is it per miner connection? I'd like to include the number in my
promoting I'm doing for the pool, and I don't wanna stray from facts. Also, I've noticed this number climbing too. Thanks!

Can anyone else answer this? Thanks!

Users is the number of accounts + address accounts (currently mining)

Thank you sir! This is very useful information.

Sorry all, I've deleted all the posts about someone getting people to fund buying miners.
Firstly, I've no idea who the person is, and secondly it's a brand new account asking for people to send them money.
Both of those mean the discussion will be not be held here.

That was me Kano. Apologies if it was out of line. I was hoping to find some way to harness the collective buying power of the pool to purchase 821s wholesale from Canaan. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but I recognize the inherent risk of the proposition. My hope was that I could keep the process transparent enough, including providing a sufficient amount of my personal information, so that all involved would be comfortable with the arrangement. I loved the idea of pushing 66x 821s to the pool in the next 30-45 days, at a reasonable up front cost, but again I completely understand the hesitation on your side. No harm, no foul? Happy hashing everyone.

again as i believe someone else said if kano was to lead the charge it might be possible but not likly otherwise

I asked Canaan directly to buy 1PH from them myself 2 months ago - to try and find ways to get the hash rate back up - but they ignored it

So I can't see me being able to help in any way with actually 'getting' miners.
I often point people who ask about getting lots of miners to steve at Canaan but never hear back from any of them either

Anyway, as I mentioned, if you want to discuss this, create a thread about it, not here.

I'm not asking about the 841...I just want to know if anyone has ordered anything from them. Are they reliable/reputable?

Blockforge DOES have an official thread ya know...
That said, yes. They are a pleasure to work with. I've gotten several A741 & A821 miners, 5 controllers and 5 PSU's from them. From time to time they also sell the s9's at a very modest markup vs eBay and such.

Thank you. They say MAYBE April on 841's. It will mean maybe having to ramp up again by not buying S9's now, but it would be worth it.

I would like to get 3 or 4 of the avalon 841's. Who is the authorized distributor who sells them in the us?

they are not the US but www.cryptouniverse.at may be an option too as they ship to the US, I believe rifleman74 picked up his 821s there and may have good things to say

I did pick them up from there, but you can save on shipping/customs if you order from the USA. The issues I had with the order were out of CU's hands as it was a GLS/FedEx issue.

Has anyone tried BlokForge? https://www.blokforge.com/

I've used Blokforge for other products other than miners themselves...worked great!

S9 failure is well known to be bad. (on the S9 at least, they were real good on the S1 an S3, things started to be bad with S5).

It's a bit of chance and badluck but they are way less reliable then Avalon product.

So yeah ... i'm all in Avalon now.

Probably nothing to do with the 6 months of "testing" they do, before selling it, price gouged, to some poor schlub. J/S

Guys, maybe this is a stupid question but, why the hype with the Avalons 821?

Avalon 821 is about $263 per TH/s with no PSU and without shipping ($2900 per A821, no PSU, no shipping)

I just got 4 S9 including PSU and shipping and paid about $192 per TH/s ($2600 per S9+PSU including shipping)

Is just because we hate antpoo and the Canaan hardware is more reliable or I'm missing something? Huh
