Amount of coins improved by a larger extend when BTC value increased by around $40 to $50.
To see an ROI in dollar terms atleast, btc need to jump back above $650 as earlier during S3 release.

BTC Value eroded more than 50% and now staying around $330.
Since its a huge drop most of our mined btc is paid as electricity charges.
So coins are much lower to send this week.
If BTC value bounce back, the amount of coins will also improve.

Bitmain is issuing a refund as compensation for the under spec S3-es.
There are two options, the default one is to get 10% of the order amount as coupon.
The second option is to get a 7.7% refund of the order.
I'm waiting to see how the miners will perform and will look into which option is better.
There are three options for us.
Priority 1) Additional Shares equivalent to the refund
Priority 2) 10% discount for future hosting or additional shares equivalent to the 10% or current share value.
Priority 3) Either will get the refund.
Send you feedback to me and will let you know how we will be going after the miners are here.

I placed the order for miners within the first 5 minutes of S3 Batch 1.
Bitmaintech send the order in priority of order. Initially as per UPS the delivery date was 18th.
Later some unfortunate things happened and I contacted Bitmain and UPS.
And as per them there where some mistakes in the Invoice/Declaration and the no of units are not matching the invoice/declaration.
So, bitmain again sent UPS a new corrected invoice and now the UPS status shows they are delivering it tomorrow by EOD.
Hopefully we will be starting tomorrow late night.

Well why is this re-opened anyway?
I was waiting to see the price and release and now seen the price is good than any other available ASICs.

I saw that Cheesy

Lucky for me the S1's are getting cheaper too Cheesy

Yah that S1 will long live. Many month to run the S1, if btc will move to 1000 - 1200 range S1 will be rocking.

Hi, sorry I'm a n00b here but I am very much interested. So the price is 0.003/share and each share gets me 2.5GHs for lifetime, minus electricity? What is the estimated real price per share, will it be close to the reservation price of 0.003?

Also, I know it's difficult to calculate break even point but any guesses in terms of weeks/months? Thanks in advanced for any advice you can give me.

Kindly

Hi,

First of all read post #1 and #2 carefully.
Real price per share, Breakeven Point and ROI is not predictable now.
The End of life of an ASIC device is when it stops earning above power cost.
Expecting a breakeven point below 120Days but, we don't know.

Finally the advice I can give you in this sector and Stock Markets is,
"Don't Put What You Are Not Ready To Loose" & "Don't Do What You Don't Understand".

So what price would you determine if ROI is possible?
Everything depends on the total price to get the device & price of btc. I expect it to be around 1 btc.
Will only buy if I can see ROI else will issue a refund of btc. See post no 2 for details.
I keep my optimism in bitmaintech since they were solid and ROI was great in their products. Hope they will not disappoint this time.


I am about to receive 0.14BTC and am looking to buy some shares, i dont think this is enough to reserve anything for, so if the devices are released and you have some shares leftover id like to buy them, depending on how long ROI will take Smiley

Yes earlier it was 0.01/reservation but now raised to .003/share to limit shares.
You can reserve upto 46 shares.

I have few shares on S1 GB from allcoinminer and I was about to buy more but then I saw this Smiley
Allcoinminer has been fast responding and dividents has been timely.

I have reserved some shares on this S3 GB and minor issue is that we don't know final price of S3s.
I assume price per share to be somewhat less than S1 (~0.003 BTC/Ghs).

Hi Thank you for your feed back on my S1 hosting.
Two days ago, Bitmaintech said they will release S3 in a week, so we will have the price details soon.

> 0.01BTC for 2,5 Ghs is > 0,004 BTC per Ghs  does not sound cheap.
Am I missing something here?

It was 0.01/Reservation for any no of shares. It was not 0.01/Share.
Later for new reservations the reservation structure changed as below
BTC0.01/Share till 10 Shares and 0.005/Share above that in-order to limit shareholder from now. If there is anything in excess will be paid back, it depends up on bitmaintech price+psu+duty.

UPDATE 21: Dropping BTC value smashed the mining environment and we can only wait.
