Profits are visibly decreasing by a good percentage every hour now. I wonder when it'll taper off....

Just based on the global hash rate, it looks like most of these boxes are online now. I would say the tapering is starting. My guess is somewhere in the $50 - $100 / day category until the next batch.

I would also venture to say most are online also.  I made the mistake of using UPS, so while everyone who used Fedex and DHL were getting theirs at the beginning of the week, I got mine yesterday.  I had to be in the last 20%.
I bet there are still plenty more to come online, I would say it keeps increasing until mid next week (business shipping days) there will be another 20-30%  Grin

I'm finally mining.. Tongue
UPS made it in record timing for me ...(faster than usual anyways) I still had to go 20k out of town to pick it up... because they tried to deliver it at 130PM !! -have these guys heard of deliveries AFTER working hours -ie when people are home? If I didn't go, they were going to 'attempt' to deliver it on Monday.
good ol' capital of canuckia.. Tongue Tongue

I cheated the delivery time, by doing this I got an extra £100, maybe it can help you in the future https://youtu.be/K2_W6KqzzgI

I dont think we are even close to reaching batch 1 max. Total is at 5500 THS now. We started at 500. Assuming half GPU miners are gone by now, puts A3 at 5250 THS. 800 GHS average comes to 6500 A3.

We are only half way there I guess. Bitmain sold 13000 A3 was the talk.

Anybody see these logging entries in their A3?

Code:
Jan 26 13:57:55 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: fan_error_num:1 fan_num 2 fan_pwm 58 fan_speed_value[0] 4170 fan_speed_value[1] 4200
Jan 26 13:57:57 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: fan_error_num:1 fan_num 2 fan_pwm 58 fan_speed_value[0] 4650 fan_speed_value[1] 4650
Jan 26 13:57:58 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: fan_error_num:1 fan_num 2 fan_pwm 58 fan_speed_value[0] 5130 fan_speed_value[1] 5160
Jan 26 15:08:59 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: chain 0 reinit 0.00
Jan 26 15:08:59 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: chain 1 reinit 0.00
Jan 26 15:08:59 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: chain 2 reinit 0.00
Jan 26 15:08:59 (none) local0.notice cgminer[375]: reset_hash_board_low 2
...
And then it looks like it is resetting the hashboards... I checked all the cables... No obvious fan issues.

No Sorry mouse, are you seeing any other issues with the miner, loss of hash rates etc??   Or just noticing these and getting concerned?

I see other things, but it looks like it is operational.


I have had two occasions of hash rate suddenly completely dropping off to nearly zero. First time I was at my PC and just restarted the miner. Today I was at work when I noticed it drop in the siamining GUI but it recovered by itself. Went to check the kernel logs because I was curious as to the reason.

interesting, hopefully it just goes away on its own... check cables and make sure everything is tight at the very least.

Could you tell me please which pool are you mining at? My current pool doesnt have any GUI interface, it is just my address so in fact I can't check online the status of mining. This is very useful when you are away. I cant find any GUI friendly sia mining pool so I would appreciate if you could give me a hint?  OK doesnt matter anymore . I found a GUI , it is hidden but very detailed. 

Just use https://siamining.com ...

Less than $50 a day is a deterrent for the next batch as well, I suppose.

You mean profit for now, this moment. We dont know what price this coin is gonna have in one week or month.  All you have to do is mine and keep all the coins. Even if it goes up only 100% in the near future our todays profit will double!

Some local guy is trying to sell one for $8500. Will these be hard to get? I know they are sold out now.

There is no way it’s worth even half that price. Income has dropped by half in the past few days and will likely go south of $100/day by next week.

If you stop thinking about it in dollars and start thinking about it in a crypto currency that could explode, then you may want to reconsider where you stand on this.

Not only that, but consider that the L3+ still sells for around $3K while only generating around $10 a day in profit, while the A3 is still north of $150 a day in profit.

Of course i'm not biting at that price, ill just wait for the next Bitmain batch. Bitmain prices are actually fairly reasonable most of the time.


And to add to my A3 adventure i ended up under clocking it to 575mhz, still pushing over 800GH/s but my temps are much more reasonable and the HW errors have nearly vanished. Was getting about 10SC/day at 600mhz/850GHS with about 3600HW errors per day. Now im getting 11.5SC/day at 575mhz/810GHS with about 4 HW errors per day. Chip temps went from 80C to 60C

Thanks a lot for your answers, it's helping.
Well now I have another issue, it seems the tab "miner status" doesnt show anything anymore when i click on it...
https://framapic.org/YuR729YQcbpc/rheIg0GxNH6m.png
Is it just the pool isnt configured well or something else? I m a bit worried i harmed the miner by putting the frequency to 750.
Thanks


Go back to your system page and see what it says under hardware version?

Probably just your miner configuration settings are wrong?

Hi,
I  have 2 A3 and I have this issue with both : in system/overview/hardware version it says  "Socket connect failed: Connection refused"
Do you have any idea what i can do?
I tried to set nat/pat config in my router to let port 3333 and 20550 go throug but it doesnt change anything.
I tried to reset the miner, then it works for some time and get back to "   Socket connect failed: Connection refused"
Any idea?
Thanks a lot!




Post your miner configuration here .  Its wrong (most probably) -- Where are you trying to connect to?

Fix the configuration, and it will be fine.

Right, I think i fixed it, i had forgot to put stratum+tcp:// before the miningpool address..

Cheers

Yea, its not worth 8500, but that stupid Baikal is selling for 10k wtf...  All these miners are way overpriced... have no idea what is going on. Huh

It’s called FOMO. Same reason idiots are bidding up 1080tis to $1200+. Just be patient. Watch the Bitmain twitter feed, and buy them when they go on sale. I’ve gotten 4 miners that way, I refuse to pay insane eBay prices.
