My miners I ordered direct from Bitmain on 9th November 2018 and paid in Bitcoin Cash arrived on 29th Dec, within the window they have given me.  As per my post about couriers I selected DHL as my courier of choice and they didn’t let me down. Information they provide is good and the online VAT payment smooth and faultless. For my Scrypt mining setup, this puts me at: 4,308 MH/s of Scrypt mining 7660 watts of electricity (15p Unit = £830 month) 0.68 LTC Day As normal I sell some of my coins each month to cover the costs and HODL the rest. Now […]

With the long awaited EHS miner almost here, Bitmain increasing prices from $1800 to $2700 and Innosilicon upping the order quantity from 3 to 10. Its been another crazy time for Crypto. But what miner is best value for money? How many MH/s do we get for our $ and what does it cost to run? Compare and Review the Stats last time I compared the L3+ with the A4+, the L3 won by a long way but this was mainly due to the $1800 price tag at the time, now they have put there prices up I think its looking […]

At long last we have a date when the Pre-Order will open, so this is like the pre-warning of the Pre-order Pre-advising us that you can Pre-order a 1GH/s Script miner for JUNE 2018!!!! So that’s a s 6 Month wait for a unit that as yet no one has seen or tested and at price tag of 3,490.00€ excl. VAT That’s about $4138 plus shipping and import tax! And a 6 Month wait, that’s a long time in Crypto world It does have a Cool name though and that’s what counts the most Wolf V1 ASIC Scrypt Miner – […]

I woke this morning and as always the first thing I do is check the prices….. Ouch, that was an expensive drop over night and I felt like my favourite hamster just died. I am a long time HODLer of both BTC and LTC and I mine my own coin. I am not really a trader as I don’t have the time to invest watching the markets close enough to make the right calls at the right time. What I do know is that the past few years we have seen a  drop around the holiday periods. The professional traders do not want […]

So it would seem that not just the BTC Blockchain is slow at the moment. Coinbase sent me this email today on the day I was due my SEPA Euro payment Hi Daniel, We are reaching out regarding a SEPA withdrawal that you have recently requested. Due to the extremely high volume of transactions received in the last few days, SEPA withdrawals are subject to delays. Your withdrawal with code ABCDEF1234 started on 2017-12-18T00:00:00 for an amount of €€,€€€.€€ EUR is delayed while we work through our backlog. Please note that your funds are safe but it may take up to […]

At the moment, according to https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions there are almost 160k Unconfirmed transaction in the block chain! And  its been steadily increasing over the past few days This is almost 500 BTC in transaction fees sitting in the queue equalling a staggering   $9,750,000. And who said it was cheep to send BTC…… Well it still is really, when you compare to a SEPA transaction and it still is a whole lot faster than SEPA.  SEPA takes approx. 3 days and BTC about 6 hours at the moment so yes, its faster. What does this mean for us mortals that don’t understand the math?  […]

EHS updated their site today to reflect “Sales open in December 2017” and I received this email Dear Litecoiners, We announce that we managed to obtain the most efficient consumption for the Litecoin Miner at the design level. On the other hand, we continue focusing our efforts on reducing the chip size which will ultimately dictate the final price of our units. This last challenge is very complex. Several important decisions are now being considered and are determinant for the launch of the manufacturing. Many of you are interested in getting more details about our design. Please note that it is still […]
