Thank you for posting these. One of things I want to emphasize is that these units plug into your router or a switch. They are essentially full fledged computers, their software just defines them as a miner. Each miner will have 2 things running, a BTC wallet, accessible from a web interface, and a Miner. The miner will be defaulted to mine on MiddleCoin, which mines the most profitable coins, and pays out in BTC. Middlecoin will send the bitcoins to the wallet on that system, and the web interface will allow the customer to transfer those bitcoins to their own wallet as they wish. There are more to these units than simple hardware.

Those are the default settings, but can easily be modified.

Is that a jocke ?
2 btc?
Check your math dude. In Feb diff which is unknown since something big is happening behind the scene not more that 1 BTC and i doubt even at that price it will ever make roi

Any way Bitmain is a smart businessmen with a good record which deserves our respect . I wish all of us the customers to be at least half the smart compared to him
Besides CNY is knocking at the door and that is only time for most of the pople to meet their families. I would not blame China DHL or EMS employees if they mess up something with some orders and this get delivered in march. For sure Bitmain will do his part and provide all of his customers with tracking as promised
PS: the picture in most optimistic scenario

0.8 BTC loss at least for 2.2 BTC invested

lol. Gimme a better one? Have you ever looked Apples fucked up projects? They out number their successes 10:1.

One issue I never see discussed is the role of the "Institutional investor". That is to say, there are a fair number of funds out there that may (or may not) hold AM shares in their portfolios. It is a bluechip stock in the bitcoin world after all, even with low dividends.

I cannot really state with any certainty what effect they may have, but I would assume it is non-zero.
