Title: Am I crazy? 550btc for Asics Hardware Post by: michelet on April 20, 2013, 09:12:38 AM Hello,
I have been mining for an year now on GPUs - (18Ghash). Yesterday I have spent 550btc to buy: 1 AsicMiner Blade (10Gh) 2 Avalon batch 2 (130Gh) so basically 4btc/Ghash. Any consideration about the investment? Considering coming hashing power, possibile delays on batch 2 deliver, Bfl shipping?, future value of btc..)

Can you answer the question: "Why don't you just invest in BTC companies and purchase the m/hash you want" This way you pay the same rate but your risk is spread over everybody" I come from a pure financial background, and "where I'm from" (lol) people price the reduced risk in numbers into the item they're selling. Not happening so much with BTC. Only "smart" reason I can see, is that they are mostly small companies trying to gain popularity by heralding an honest business model along with enticing ROI Title: Re: Am I crazy? 550btc for Asics Hardware Post by: Hei_ on April 20, 2013, 09:31:07 AM u are crazy lol

Once they take over the mining pool, the difficulty to make BTC will rise
so far that all other ways of making coin will vanish over time.
