I have one of Sidehack's hacked S7s (which used to be in Fuzzy's mine) running in my office again - at least another 3th/s to the pool!

Yikes! What temp are those boards at with that box?

69c is the current chip temp, but they can get up to 74 or so.

Looks like we are up to 39PH!  So maybe Canaan is burning in 4-500 821's.  Ramped up pretty quickly. In last day over 10%?  I think spikes are them power cycling.

Yep, means they will be ready to ship in the next week or so.

I haven't seen one of these silencer boxes. Does it actually kill out some of the noise? Must be nice to mine at work. Welcome back (if you ever left). I joined up with one S9 4 or so days ago. I've got one here, one at BitMinter and two at Slush trying to get enough to cover the electric cost for the 4 miners for the month. Once that happens I'll probably bring another miner here and another to BitMinter. I love both pools, but I'm always nervous to have all my eggs in one basket. Glad to see the blocks popping, and I'd like to think I brought a little luck with me Wink

I'm also not advertising or advocating for BitMinter over Kano or any other pool. Like I said, I'm loving this community so far even though I've been here four days.

This community has been very active so far and I love getting insight from other miners. Not too many in my area here in Arkansas.

If you are attempting to cover your electric cost for the month, why would you give away extra coin?  Huh  Surely if you spent 8-10k on miners you could float 450-500 dollar electric bill. Not putting all your eggs in one basic (even though I see it differently) I could understand but not wanting to maximize your profits.
One of the agreements with the wifey was no out of pocket expenses once I had the miners running. So once I cash in enough from Slush to cover January's expense the others will move and surely between the two pools, I will have enough to cover February. Luckily I didn't spend 8-10k. I got mine direct from BitMain at 1430 a piece. On top of that, I used only profits from old machines, and profits from the sale to cover the 4 new ones. My initial plan was to flip one and keep three, but I'm loving having the four running at the moment.

Never left - just didn't have this one machine running. The box drops noises from 55 db to 25db when i wrap it in a moving blanket. Sidehack's S7s draw like 900watts though, so not too loud anyway.

Have you tried the silencers that attach to the fans? I've always wondered how badly that affects the airflow and cooling. I'd almost think you'd need to throw another fan on the end of it to keep the air flowing correctly.

you are 100% in asking the question and difficulty change play a big part in this. The thing I am taking into consideration - for the difficulty to increase by 10% or 20% per month the network has to add that % hashing power. Now with an estimated 16-17Eh in the network... calculate the number of S9s needed to do that. It will plato imo but continue going up. How much ? Who knows.

edit: also keep in mind that other SHA-256 coins take some of the hashing produced.

That's a fair point.  However, I wonder if the hashing power won't grow at that rate or even higher.  With all of the ASICs in the market and more powerful and plentiful ones coming, it isn't hard to imagine the network growing exponentially.

Well, that is the question. You think Bitmain+others can produce 20% per month? - ~252 000 miners a month and keep going....(302 000... 363 400.... 435 200... ) ?

As a side-note:
Electrical requirement rough (at 1.3kW/miner) : 327MW...393MW...471MW...565MW.
500MW is about 2.2 million PV Panels.... every month

1500+ users! Welcome and let's gooooo!!

this ususally happening when pool luck is going over 100% , then miners coming like bees... then they found out how the pay out system works , pool luck going back to 100% or lower , then they running away from the pool Smiley
Happened a few times already Wink

As long as they can help solve a few blocks, I'm quite alright with that.

Thats another  reason PPLNS 5nd is good for the dedicated user

also on a side note current pricing for the 821 is up and down but delayed again, I think I will definitely be getting a few.

You are assuming the price of Bitcoin is going to stay forever at today's price?

It seems less about the price and more about the difficulty.  If you click on the chart and change it to "coins generated" and look at it over 24 months, it basically shows that you will be generating next to nothing by month 12.

It's been showing that nothing is profitable like that since I started mining with only a hammer and chisel Cheesy

It's all speculation.

did anyone order through bitmain on the last s9 batch and see how the USD wire transfer worked??   Specifically how much time do they give you to transfer the money to them?  half hour? ahahah  Banks are closed!

Just so I know If I should do a BCH or USD wire to them if I have enough time, the exchange rates fluctuate so much its sometimes 200-250 more than straight USD sent to them.

Its gotta be more than a half hour for the USD though.


They say to finish payment within 7 days

Thanks,  I tried to get 4 last night, but eventually out of stock.    I would be paying the next day if USD, just to make sure its done fast.  My caclulations between exchanging for CND to BTC vs Cnd to USD was Better for me to do straight to USD since it was about 300 cnd more PER s9 if I paid in BTC.   part due to the exchange I was using and what bitmain uses as their exchange rate for BTC too.
