Guys look at the next Diff jump 40%+

I think these are looking more and more shaky on ROI

I was going to get 20 ... I sent an email to the support re cost to ship to australia and heard nothing as per usual for avaalon. Imediately stopped the whole idea as TOO much RISK

As per the site Tradehill does not have the units and they are with yifu mining (in china probably) ...so good luck to see how long it takes to get your units

Avalon have used up any goodwill that is left ... Cry

someone sell me a avalon mini or two

I don't think anyone will sell you a mini Avalon for cost, if they did they wouldn't be in the business of making money or bitcoins for that matter. I am saving up for a 4 module Avalon next.

I will pay 2.75 Btc for a unit or two if anyone wants to unload some at a gain?

Now a new problem, how to run 8600W of Avalons... thank goodness its winter!

Long, long time ago I used 6000W electric heater to successfully heat 3-room apartment in continental climate. Good luck with cooling all that equipment.

Easy, crack a window Wink

It's not just what to do with all the heat, though, right? The typical standard for US single family homes is 100 amp service, and less for apartments. With those machines running 24/7, it should leave around 25 amps for all the rest of the appliances and environmental uses in the house.

Yes that is true but I was only replying to his statement "Good luck with cooling all that equipment". Having the power to run them all is definitely the real problem Tongue

You guys are soo funny. Sure a single 6KW heater would one big circuit, but these minis can be spread all over. My house has 200A at 220V service (440A @ 110V) so no worries there. Temps are 35F night 65F daytime average right now, and I heated last year with 14 GPUs spread over 4 rigs with no issues, but this will be over 2x that load!

8600W includes two 4-module Avalons that are in my laundry room today, and I ran two 20A 110V circuits in there to juice those bad boys.

I will just add a few circuits in the garage and keep the door open 4" or so all winter with some box fans going, and relocate units inside as heaters as it gets colder.

Now to break the news to the wife Shocked

I guess you don't have a basement?

If you have enough land you could build a under ground place to store your Avalon's and just have fan push all the hot air out!

Yeah for many people this will not be a problem but not everybody has that capacity. The server room I am currently using is now at capacity so I will have to run my new mini's from home where I already have a lot of things running so I have to place them strategically to avoid popping any breakers Tongue

. Luckily my AC will be off so won't be a problem until summer...

I don't know what is going on. First it said I was unsuccessful.

Now it says my orders were successful. However, it says the clearing price is 2.21 but I only bid 2.12 (actually I bid 2.199 but they made it 2.12).

I don't know what this is all means.

mine for 2.2 says the same.

Can anyone else confirm they have received this. Does anyone else have unsuccessful still?

Now they put the funds back into my account so I guess the "order" was successful (in other words, my bid) but I didn't meet the min bid so I lost the auction.

Got my funds back as well. My max bid was 2.1BTC per unit. These were good room heaters though

Yeah that could be an option at the discretion of the seller. If I was selling a house I would want 144 blocks (24 hours).

Or 144 blocks with time minimum. Something like 32 block extension if 144+extension*(blocks per extension) blocks are hit before 24 hours have passed. A detail but you get the idea Tongue

Good luck to itod/profMac and/or whoever else gets into this. Would be nice to see.

Sorry for the offtopic also.

While I think it is on topic, I have started another thread to support a needs analysis for blockchain auctions.

Also, in many auctions there is no "end time". The auction continues until nobody is willing to beat the highest bid (aka "going once going twice SOLD!!!"). Perhaps another option would be to end the auction after X blocks have passed since the last highest bid?

This is a nice idea. For instance: Auction lasts as long there are blocks with higher bids than the previous high. This may also solve "bids to close to the wire to be included" problem. In your opinion, should the system show the bids from the current (Edit: unsolved) block or publish them after the block is found?

I would say only bids included in solved blocks to avoid shenanigans.

I do prefer shenanigan free auctions.

What sort of shenanigan can you envision if non-confirmed bids are presented in the dashboard?

I did not notice this was going on, lol, if anyone wants 1 less that they won in the auction I would pay 2.5 Btc for it, plus shipping and escrow services.

I would give the same, especially if bought from a canadian resident

my bid for 2.20 btc per unit now says it was successful...

Interesting because the winning bid was 2.2 when the auction ended and about 15 seconds after I saw it jump up to 2.21 which I found odd. I wonder if somebody got a bid in after the auction closed which they reversed.

I thought it was my web browser, but yeah for me it said 2.2 was winning bid and auction closed.
Then it said 2.21 and auction closed. Which irritated the crap out of me at first.
