I got into Bitcoin from an ideological point of view, get rid of the banks... but now we miners like the high TX fee's.  
But the TX fee's can't stay this high, otherwise BTC is not usable for making payments anymore.
I wonder about that.
When I stayed in LA last week it cost me $703.00 on MC - then tx fees were another $21.09 on top ... ... ... ...

Are the TX fees high in reality or just "more than free"?   If you look at all the coin transferred on a block and then take the 2BTC of TX fees for the block, what is the average percentage?

This was probably a foreign transaction fee charged by Kano's bank.  Keep in mind MC also charged the hotel ~$15-20 in fees.  

But me personally, I love credit cards.  It's negative fees (I earn miles/points) with every purchase and the merchant pays the fees.  

The way I see it there is a niche market for bitcoin payment processing, and the current fees are not excessive for this market.  They can be excessive for people consolidating small balances or sending small payments, but realistically bitcoin is not ever going to catch on as something people use to buy lunch.  Credit/debit cards will always be faster/easier for that purpose.

Well, we could dump BTC/USD back to under $360, and then a tx would be under 5¢ again.  Roll Eyes

...they make a fortune with the s-7 on hashnest...
Hashnest, and cloud-mining in general, now there's an idea to take advantage of the FOMO crowd if I've ever seen one.  Angry

Out of curiosity.

The S9 has been on the market for sometime now. I am wondering it is the limitation of hashing hardware/power or it is possible to got higher than 13.5TH but not releasing it for some reasons...

yes  the limit is imposed for psu size.

no more complex then that.

and since it is far more efficient then any other miner they are going with it.

Finally they make a fortune with the s-7 on hashnest  so they will do status quo until someone else brings out a 20th 1200 watt unit.

their s-7 division is a solid money maker for them

...I would think if they wanted to make a 20TH version they could just make a bigger chassis with more boards in it.
And quintuple the amount of people complaining that they can't keep it quiet in their 105°F garage. Roll Eyes

There is a thread for that Smiley

But there was a 14TH version, so it just comes down to binned chips that can run at the speed and power required.

I would think if they wanted to make a 20TH version they could just make a bigger chassis with more boards in it.

Well the point is, i see these miners go on ebay.de around 550 to 650 euro's.   Lets say i would get 1100 euro's, at the current rate (sigh) that's is 0,5 BTC.
With the exponentially growing Diff  I've seen my profits go from 0,28 to 0,12 BTC/month in the last half year. So, what i'm wondering is that if I mine for half a year,
what would those miners still be worth? I'm guessing that in another 6 months I might scrape 0,5BTC with 2 S7's but by then the diff will have risen so much that monthly it's 0,05BTC for 9TH..
I can only use about 3000watt so more miners is not an option.
Furthermore, the whole BitMain HardFork, scaling debate and all is not healty for Bitcoin.

I agree that the pools are somehow like banks now.

If your electricity is free, why stop mining? you already paid for the S7's. I have S5,S4 and S7 mining and still get some btc, not a lot but with "almost free electricity" it's hard to find a reason not to power them up.
Besides there are other ways to make money with your S7s. Selling them is but one option. msg me privately if you want more ideas.
I'm not quite understanding, either...I've got three S7s in Labrador that are profitable, and I'm paying hosting. I've got another two machines at home, Avalons, where the juice is free.
If your electricity is almost free I would recommend you getting a credit from a bank ( if you don't have the funds) and bumping it up to at least 100th and start making some money here at Kano!!! Grin

Related kinda to this pool, I sent a mining reward consolidation transaction manually to a different wallet and obviously calculated the fee to low. Its been unconfirmed for about 5 days now. When will it drop from the men pool and get returned or any other way to get it confirmed?

PS. Paid 0.00010039 per/kb

Thanks,

I've pushed the transaction to another pool's transaction "accelerator", you should see a confirmation within the next few hours.

If that doesn't work, your transaction is Opt In RBF, so you can replace the fee with a greater fee if needed and try to get a confirmation that way.

Done, that worked! Confirmed! Thanks. Be nice if Kano had an accelerator for all the loyal miners where .0001/kb could still be feasible.

Thanks again

Excellent, thank you. I actually tried to replace using electrum wallet increase fee option but failed the few times with "Cannot bump fee: cound not find suitable outputs"
