Topic: Launching the Antminer L3+, World's Most Powerful and Efficient Litecoin Miner - page 18. (Read 284882 times)

So did they tell you what is the hashrate for extra "+" ?? i guess in my country here if we do massage ask for "++" it means ask for xxx lol...

Lol. Eco-terrorists probably have bigger fish to fry than little old bitmain. At the very least bitmain is also invested in future AI technology for making life easier.

I hate bitmain too but if they blew up all cryptocurrencies value would probably sink because of all the FUD media will start selling.

Well, my 'iffy' hedge on getting equip and funding (only way to do it .must show income) to a solo401k...by getting 12 more miners..again hedge..is still kinda hanging in there

as even (go LTC go)

However, in fairness, I/we/ whoever got these units, we need to have Bitmain start the data hall mining of new machines END OF SUMMER and then the usual us 'consumers'

would get them 2 months later ...say shipping in Oct 2018...

IF, they say have NEW units they can mine, beginning and say, MAY 2018, well this hedge probably did not work, without some major price action

we will see, it was a hedge for what I said above and paid with dubious alt coins...on an 8k to 6k dump in price for BTC (with alts following) thus if such a dump the alts

I paid for this would have tanked anyway...so used the alts and 'hedged' and spread around the risk

as usual, looks like I shoulda just kept the alts FML

oh well, showing at least 12 miners of SOMETHING if I'm out of mining will keep the IRS and state tax folk happy anyway, the last thing I want them to think in these

times is that I got all this crypto by doing ...GASP... TRADING... shudder (you trader guys, they really, really, really are out to get you big time)

well...again, still 'teetering' on the tightrope of even-steven ...we will see...

But yeah, this whole 'miner' aspect of my crypto could be 'all done' by end of Summer 2018...at least the NON-bitmain type big data hall stuff with scrypt-pow...

right now my 2,300mh of 300mh KNC Titans at 1,250 watts are off-line, I'd need $200 buck LTC now to run them and break even at current difficulty

considering I got my first NEW one on November 8th, 2014...I really, really, can't be too upset about such..but hey, $225 LTC would be nice

anyway, as usual, and like most of you guys, just trying to 'wing it', we will see...

so anyway, on to the NEXT goal ...going into HODL mode after expenses, as long as I can mine, to get as much LTC as I can before the

April 2019 halving. That should keep me out of trouble till then. Also should consider 'attic mining' the $5k of crap in the attic on to eBay ..and buy

LTC and hold also....1) clean attic = rec room = $10k value increase on house at least 2) I get LTC w/o risk of getting mining equipment anymore, say in 2018.

stuff to do, always crypto drama and stuff to do

Yep just confirmed this with their support

Are you sure? Why are they going in US and Canada? Because of actions from china? Btw life is expensive in these countries, I really have no idea why they choose them while they could open datacenters in countries like Georgia, they would offer tax free zone.
Also I think this will cause rise in price too and it won't be low, this rise will be high, especially for new eth miner.

No....no it doesn't. Just more Bitmain trickery and deception. They are desperate to clear the legacy Technology from their buildings. Their mining ops are moving to Canada and the US and they don't want to pack all that shit up. They also need room on their shelves for the newer technology units that they will screw us over on next. I can't wait until July or August when they announce the newer Scrypt and SHA256 units and all us guppies eat each other's tails begging and scrapping to get one or two units, while Bitmain sells 1000's behind our backs to large corporate mining businesses in back room deals. Same shit....different flies. When Bitmain opens their Mining here in Washington State, I hope some Eco-terrorists blow the place to Kingdom Come.

And I just now received the shipping notice for this. Great.

it is what it is....so basically, the last month...with the ups and downs in price and the difficulty etc....the ave price is around 2 bucks a day for me for L3+'s

so seems bo be a race between price and difficulty..the real question is if/when bitmain MAY toss the supposed 1.5gh 1,300-watt units and mine them over the summer

or just wait for 'deployment' when prices are higher... regardless we will get the units 4-5 months after them 'mining the heck out of them' if they exist that is

so anyway, unless we see some price movement from sideways on BTC and LTC in a major way...(esp if L3+'s can't seem to cut the mustard) ..that means all

POW-SCRYPT miners are in big trouble..because IF Bitmain does have these 1.5gh units at 1,300 watts...THEY MAY BARELY MAKE IT...thus whatever the result

Bitmain will by itself OWN say 80% of all those miners in its OWN data halls, due to price (us not getting units or unavailable) or just difficulty even putting Bitmain

in a 'bind' accounting for the difficulty

and again, in my case paid with 'dubious altcoins' thus if it all goes to sh*t these 12 Bitmain units, compared to what these alts would have dumped anyway...it is a wash

HOWEVER, as a sideways hedge it seems to be working so far..much to my amazement ...(at least on my 'unicorn farts and fairydust..hope of a pump of LTC)

drama, drama..always drama

(bitmain: evil: how to win friends and influence people!) (tm: bitmain)

I pay around $27.648 per month for electricity for one L3+, but I feel more comfortable buying Litecoin rather than buying one of these discounted L3+. I feel like they're coming out with a new miner that's gonna destroy profitability on these L3+. I really hope things go well for you my friend.

I believe bitmain policy on coupons is that the coupon should not exceed half the value of the miner. Someone mentioned this when he spoke with one of Bitmain's customer support representatives.

Well my home price is 12c kwh starting this summer..and the local elec company seems to always increase the base rate by 1c every summer (got to cover them pesky

solar folk that don't use the grid!) So using this range on my house home rate...I figure it works the same...add 1c per kWh per year seems the norm.

The 2c extra includes all the grunt work by my buddy/partner on his end....so, for the service I get on setup/fixing stuff/etc and my current rates it is a fair price

(and the fact too many for my basement) well..at least from my point of view on the extra 2c...the base rate the utility company charges me sucks though...

but as to if one L3+ = $80 a month as a package...well we better see some price action

Currently, it is for me on the above rate for 500mh and 800 watts (or $80 an L3+ per month) @ $134 per LTC.

24 hours   0.03474589 LTC   4.66 USD   2.67 USD   1.99 USD
7 days   0.24322122 LTC   32.59 USD   18.67 USD   13.92 USD
30 days   1.04237666 LTC   139.68 USD   80.00 USD   59.67 USD

So, yeah....looks pretty ugly yet...still less than $2 a day in LTC!

Maybe just overclocked a bit?  and you can't use a coupon over $300

Under notes on the L3++ page, "Specifications of L3++ maybe slightly higher than L3+. ".

It has the same specs though. I think the extra + refers to price haha

i got a feeling there will be L5/L5+ soon

just made an ordered with a $200 coupon.

Notice the L3++, this one may produce sligthly more or be more effective.

price increased  606 now

Mine 1 was shipped today too.

I'm still waiting for the one unit that I ordered.
