Well that anouncment means nothing to me.. I am 100% hosted and plan to be for at least a year..  

And I was using RPI's to drive miners a year ago..   

Here is an idea that would ROCK and CHANGE the industry(But would never happen)

For cloud based or hosted miners, guarantee for say 6 months or a year, that as the price per MH's rockets down(I have never seen it go up so don't think we have to consider that) you would get the MH's added to your UI..

So for example:

Lets say you buy early and its $10 per MH's  and you spend $100 and have 10 MH's.   Then 2 months later, its now $6.66 per MH's..  You would then get 5 more MH's adding to your UI..  For a total of 15 MH's so your $100 investment would keep up with the rocket downward prices..


Now that would be an announcement that would be Industry shaking..    

Oh they would still make money.. 

So what do we use for software in the mean time or is this coming with our first order. Thanks

I think that is a great idea and looks very promising.  I cannot wait to get my hands on it and show new miners how easy it is.  I wish you the best and hope it works as planned.

Interesting idea..   

Will I have the option to use the Zenminer controller or my local machine?  Let's say Zen decides to start charging a monthly fee for cloud controlling.  If I would like to use the hardware I own and control locally instead. 

On the flip side, will we have the ability to turn a currently owned Pi into a Zenminer Controller? The hardware is the same...
