LOL, Bitmain are the manufacturers so they set the price they think the miner is worth or miners will pay. As LTC has gone up, so has the price.

what are the earnings for l3s today ?

dog1965 · · #32219

@vinylwasp :  thank you could not have said it better myself.

mycide · · #32220

you really believe that bitmain is only manufacturing, that is a bit naive, they are a leading force behind prices aswell as running the rigs we buy before shipping them, deflating price slowly as the batches are released, making sure the machine already payed itself several times over by the time we get to pay for it. Atleast we get a function al machine, right ^^

mycide · · #32221

same shit when Titans were on the table 2014.

mycide · · #32222

look at X11 it plummited to the ground, scrypt is holding its own a lot better atm, and prob why in the longer term the L3 will be more profitable. Or price for Dash needs to drastically move.

Maxiimos · · #32223

looks like zpool’s profitability has increased substantially as of yesterday evening

mycide · · #32224

profit should be up today if price of LTC holds up

Forum notification · · #32225

has started a new topic: Live coin status chart

kleissen86 · · #32226

if d3s are so good why are they still a lot left on the bitmain’s site and the s9 and l3s didnt last

kleissen86 · · #32227

is there anything going on?

Exactly!

kleissen86 · · #32229

sorry just got here catching up but i just noticed that

People think the problem is Bitmain ... If you do not want to buy their machines, it’s okay! Nobody is forcing you to buy AntMiners. I do not love or hate Bitmain, I just see these thing as they are. And the fact is that Bitmain is at the forefront of this technology... they are not to blame if no other company in the world can compete with them equally.

bellaminer · · #32231

@kleissen86 the availability of D3s on bitmain is based, at least in part, on the price point being low relative to the L3s and the number of idiots who put 50 of them into a cart and never wire transfer

bellaminer · · #32232

By my calculations, even if X11 drops to .05/mhs, they’re still relatively profitable

kleissen86 · · #32233

Oh i am not picking a side fyi or blaming. I am on a learning process so i am calling out what i see to see if others think a like o get feedback. I see bitmain as a opportunity for others honestly. even

kleissen86 · · #32234

even if they do all the stuff ppl say they do. They still allow others to profit and share. even with a lot of ppl that have nothing

Splinter · · #32235

sure

bellaminer · · #32236

This whole game depends on coin prices continuing to increase.

bellaminer · · #32237

Anyone who thinks they are going to make 6k a month off a single D3 is delusional, expect to have 15 dollars of profit per day

kleissen86 · · #32238

i see this as an opportunity for all of us to become wealthy on a wolrd design for big whales to capitalize on every opportunity and leaving the rest of the world with no chance

bellaminer · · #32239

Which in the grand scheme is damn good profit

bellaminer · · #32240

Everyone here has seen the writing on the wall and will profit

kleissen86 · · #32241

ok so i have 3 d3 on my car right now should i pay for them or get 2 more l3s

bellaminer · · #32242

How many D3s do you have already?

bellaminer · · #32243

I think it would be bad to half all D3s, or all L3s

kleissen86 · · #32244

i want to be part of each side a little bit. so i want to mine, resell if possible and invest on the coin as well

bellaminer · · #32245

have all, rather

bellaminer · · #32246

The best you’re going to get on Dec 1, in my humble opinion, is about $2.5k for a D3

kleissen86 · · #32247

so i have 4 l3 currently i have 4 more coming and 3 d3? would be good

bellaminer · · #32248

8 L3s is where I would love to be, but we only have 4

bellaminer · · #32249

We’re shooting for 4 L3s and 11 D3s

bellaminer · · #32250

not shooting, waiting for.

kleissen86 · · #32251

i see the l3 as gold to be honest

bellaminer · · #32252

But I’d rather have 8 L3s

bellaminer · · #32253

I think 8 L3s and 4 D3s is a safe way to go

kleissen86 · · #32254

i see value on the efficiency and the chance to exchange for btc or any scrypt that is worth

bellaminer · · #32255

I’m running a huge risk with 11 of htem

bellaminer · · #32256

them*

bellaminer · · #32257

I may sell a few off to add 2 more L3s

Splinter · · #32258

Just a note: People are free to have their own opinions... I just can not tolerate xenophobic comments of any kind even more in the crypto world.

bellaminer · · #32259

Someone was spouting racist crap on here?

kleissen86 · · #32260

ok u guys just lost me lol

bellaminer · · #32261

Every day that goes by, I am regretting getting so top-heavy with D3s

bellaminer · · #32262

Wish I had the sense to buy more L3s

kleissen86 · · #32263

wow by u saying that right now gives me more confidence about choosing those

bellaminer · · #32264

Its built on the assumption that the scrypt coins can maintain $15-18/day for the next 12+ months

bellaminer · · #32265

which may be misplaced

bellaminer · · #32266

If bitconnectioncoin (or whatever its called) dies, like Steve suggested herein on the forum, we may be facing $8/day profit come Jan 1

kleissen86 · · #32267

i think the more they sell the lower it gets but it would be up to the person to play on the whole dynamic of the game to come out on top

bellaminer · · #32268

I don’t think you made a mistake at 8 L3s

kleissen86 · · #32269

yeah so, things like saving on fees, saving on electric bills, exchanging to btc etc plays a huge role

bellaminer · · #32270

exactly

kleissen86 · · #32271

at the end of the day the one thing that can’t go away are the miners

kleissen86 · · #32272

but honestly we as the ppl doing the work should be able to have some pool the problem is all the big guys catching up.

bellaminer · · #32273

We’re within 24 months of some big players hitting the mining market

bellaminer · · #32274

The japanese smell money and are going after the 7nm chips

kleissen86 · · #32275

yeah i really dont want to let this go so i am trying to grow as much as i can honestly it is a better chance than just keep working at my job to make someone else rich

kleissen86 · · #32276

i just saw some mining operations that said to be be building more around the world and made me feel like an insect lol

bellaminer · · #32277

Lets just hope we get our $$$ before its impossible to mine without a massive server farm

solar-song · · #32278

is there a list of coins that are being mined here? I’m sure there probably is but I’ve dug around and can’t see to find one...

solar-song · · #32279

bella, diversify your portfolio, balance your sell and hold, and if you get a good foundation it won’t matter so much when the mega farms come online. you’re in at a good time

stugots2 · · #32280

anyone know what the HW’s are on L3+’s? each blade has its own HW # what is that?

solar-song · · #32281

HW errors

stugots2 · · #32282

so each blade 1-4 under HW is an error?

stugots2 · · #32283

like blade 1 has 7, blade 2 has 1 etc

solar-song · · #32284

I’m not looking at my miner screen right now. each blade has a bunch of chips that periodically might choke on their input, generating a hardware error

solar-song · · #32285

the number you’re seeing is how many have appeared since uptime. they aren’t necessarily a bad thing

stugots2 · · #32286

so HW section is hardware error? some (overclocked ones) have MANY MANY

solar-song · · #32287

people use them to gauge how they should clock their machines, if they’re feeling they want to push it. it’s a good gauge to test your overclocking

stugots2 · · #32288

2300 is way too much huh?

solar-song · · #32289

maybe back down the overclock a frequency at a time and see if you can find a sweetspot between returns and HW errors. 2300 may not be that many depending on your uptime. and that’s tiny given how many thousands of calcs per second you’re running through

stugots2 · · #32290

3.5 days on that one?

stugots2 · · #32291

other 3 blades are 0,211,41 tho

solar-song · · #32292

I think you’re fine, you’re not seeing any x’s in the chip array depiction, are you? you should be seeing all "o"s

stugots2 · · #32293

no no x’s at all

stugots2 · · #32294

all O’s

solar-song · · #32295

O k then.

solar-song · · #32296

(that was bad)

stugots2 · · #32297

different L3 tho, I have one hashing board just stop showing all together, I reboot (because im not there) when i reboot it through the system sometimes ANOTHER board leaves but the 4th never comes back

stugots2 · · #32298

ever seenthat?

solar-song · · #32299

hmm. might have something going on in your controller or something? I’m fairly new to these machines, so no I’ve not encountered it. fish around, I’m sure someone has some advice on that

stugots2 · · #32300

i thought bad board but when # 3 keeps leaving and coming back im thinking something else

stugots2 · · #32301

maybe a manual "pull the plug" so the controller resets fully is in order

solar-song · · #32302

that’s always a good first step

solar-song · · #32303

I’ve been bouncing around to some other pools, how are earnings here lately?

hashingpro · · #32304

Bel you on?

stugots2 · · #32305

been bouncing also lol

stugots2 · · #32306

Nicehash is the winner right now, waiting for this place tho

hashingpro · · #32307

nicehash was about even with PH, until you subtract the 3% fee to get your money out, then they are 2 bucks behind

solar-song · · #32308

so running around $20 an L3 or so?

hashingpro · · #32309

yeah 19 here yesterday

hashingpro · · #32310

23 at another place

solar-song · · #32311

word

hashingpro · · #32312

19/20 at NH until the payout then down to 18

solar-song · · #32313

hp, you seem pretty knowledgable. does PH mine Pinkcoin? is there a list of coins they’re mining I can check out?

stugots2 · · #32314

honestly I’m looking for an excuse to come back here but that 2.58 scares me lol

solar-song · · #32315

heh
