anyone else got 100 USD coupon from bitmain? today i got 2x a coupon and i dont know why....


I received these coupons this morning...   Did u buy any of the $980 batch A3s?

Something isn't right.

I also had a coupon and I tried to buy an A3 with the coupon. But Bitmain does not allow using the coupon. Only valid for S9 and L3.

This is the answer of Bitmain:

The terms of use are:

  • One coupon per Antminer purchase (only for S9 and L3+)
  • Coupons may not be exchanged or redeemed for cash
  • You may transfer your coupon to another Bitmain customer if you wish.

These are selfish.

Best regards.

Hello guys, i'm thinking about buy 3 antminer A3. Problems are: they will be ship around the end of march (i mean, if they don't scam me...) and the difficult will be higher for that time.
If you were in me, will you do it? If not, why?
I still haven't bought anything, but planning to do it.

Any help and answer is VERY welcome, thanks

Hi guys,

its still worth buy A3?
I never used ASIC for mining and want try one, but I dont want throw money for useless hardware.

Thank you.

The first batch was of course profitable, the one on their website for $980 seems pretty reasonable atm but you never know how high the difficulty will spike when all the new A3s ship. Right now with my A3, im making around $30~ per day half way on my ROI already after a month

I think that's no new firmware. It's the actual, as compile version is 29.12.2017...

fluctuations due to connected and then disconnected miners by Bitmain... same was in Jan...
another thing - there is a big decline in hashrate on 20:00 GMT: 11.4 > 8.7 Ph and then back to 11.6....
second hashboard on my miner went xxx at this time, but recovered soon...
what was that i wonder?

today we got 2 falls of hashrate..
1) Sia developers are testing soft fork
2) there is a bug in current algo


is the softfork about the exclusion of the antminer a3?

I really do not believe they will hurt themselves by killing bitmain miners on the network lol

U never know if that will occur but u know wat, at least this time u guys broke even by mining with the A3. This is not like the D3. Bitmain sold it at 2k+ for first batch and u guys broke even. It is now still making over 1k a month after all the difficulty increases, so, u guys got a sweet deal. Congrats.

P.S.A Do not try and deposit siacoin sc funds into Poloniex. I linked my Poloniex account with my a3 back in January when I received the unit. There were 4 separate deposits made during the first 2 days, totaling 2,500 SC. Here's a screenshot I took this morning, still no coins even though siamining.com has it as completed as well as all other transactions that I since switched over to hitbtc. No issues whatsoever with Hitbtc. I sent Poloniex support a message about it on the 30th of January, giving them 2 days to complete the trx before opening a ticket. As of today Feb 13th 2018, I still have received no correspondacnce, and have no idea where my 2500 SC are as of right now.



TLDR - Deposited 2500 Siacoin into Poloniex from siamining.com and still have not received them. Switched to Hitbtc, and no issues there.


Been lurking for quite sometime now, thought I'd give back and hopefully save someone from this happening to them.
Cheers Miners

I have roughly 8,500 SC in limbo on Poloniex.  Pointed my A3 there and after the first 500 SC didn't show up put a ticket in.  They responded within 5 minutes, which is rare apparently, and they were having problems with the wallet and they would deposit the missing coins after they fixed it. With my new confidence in them I kept it pointed there for a few days and still have no coins or any response to that ticket or the new ones I have opened.  Second the Hitbtc move, works well.

This is exactly why you do not mine directly to an exchange.  You should be mining to a wallet.
