Title: Bitmain and Minerscube
Post by: spazzdla on May 23, 2014, 01:02:17 PM
Are the only companies I see that offer no pre order BS.

Bitmain is legit..

Minerscube anyone tried them?  They seem to have the best gh/s vs $ and quick shipment but anyone tried them?  I am considering the 5/ths unit.

Please note that this is a request for pre-order. Your order will be shipped by the end of May.

Never heard of them, and they're selling preorders the quote above was at the bottom of the product details page. Power stats look awfully fishy, nobody is close to 5Gh/watt yet....

On the other hand, I've done quite a bit of business with Bitmain (30x S1 and 4x S2) and have yet to be disappointed.

I have yet to be disappointed with Bitmain as well, 4 S1's myself.  Might get 2 more, those things are awesome.

I wouldn't trust Minerscube just yet.

Go for Spondoolies if you can afford it, they ship from stock right now.

How can you say minerscube is quick shipment when they haven't and never will deliver a product?

Minerscube is a 95% verified scam. More red flags than just about any other scam I've seen.

Go for Spondoolies if you can afford it, they ship from stock right now.

But if you can't afford it you could always buy in stock hardware from bitmain, hashratio, avalon, or A1 clones and get the same hashrate for 25% less.

why not go with cex io or scrypt cc instead of hardware I mean you are sure to get your order right away. Additionally they are cheaper you dont have to worry about hardware breakdowns etc and you can always make more money by just trading them away. I have been on there for about over 2 weeks now and love the fact that I can trade my ghs or khash(scrypt) this way I will always have value and whenever I see a downwards trend I tend to sell and rebuy more hashing power cheaper. If anyone likes my suggestions please follow my referral links in my signature. Just signup see the market you dont even have to trade if you see what you like only then invest.

Average cost of in stock hardware: $1.5/gh
Cost of cex.io virtual shares: $4.1/gh

People are skeptical of $1.5/gh being able to return a profit. At $4/gh you would be lucky to earn back half your money.

Nobody has made a profit on cex.io besides the company themselves and the people pushing their referral links and making money off the suckers willing to pay twice the going rate for hardware.

So would I. Unfortunately you will need to spend more than that to get decent rates.

The cheapest/smallest asic I could find would be: http://minersource.net/products/15x-bitfury-30-40gh-asic-miners-500-600gh-total

Best deal for small time miners is bitmain S1's. Only 0.4btc for 200gh (without psu).

The wish I could afford that. But I can't hence cexio is better option in my case.

Hello !

Are you talk about MinersBox (former MinerCube) ?
You know, the company which produce this:  http://www.minersbox.com/index.php/products/minersbox-5
If YES, are they LEGIT or scamers ?

Current cost per ghs at cex.io is btc 0.007 you can do the math bro.

According to CEX.io ToS, they can ban your account and grab all your coins, just because you aren't  UK resident  :P
Now do your math, bro !

wow really... well you asked me how is it cheaper. If you have a problem with there tos it has nothing to do with them being cheaper.

That i wasent aware of, can you point me to that clause cause i did a scan through the TOS and I didnt find that they can take your coins just because you arent a uk resident. Please do point me to it so I can verify it and pull out my coins if that crap clause is in there.
