Batch 3 Avalon was closer to 7k...but its based on one month to get a return on investment...so still amazing. Thats with them figuring for difficulty of 13million
Ya...that's pretty amazing.
Of course, I have plenty of reservations about investing so much $$ into a machine like that. Being brand new to this whole economic concept, my knowledge and understanding is nearly nil....BUT....
any claim of future performance is based on a whole lot of speculation. That's true with any form of currency....even the old standard...Gold.
The only basis for any such claim would have to be in consideration of past and current performance of the currency. Right now, all over the world we are seeing how economic systems disintegrate. This current worldwide economic system that's now falling apart (at least the American Dollar), began in 1971 (I think).
Oh crap....there I go again! Apologies....I have a terrible tendency to carry on and on, writing a novel to get my meaning across. Not very good at making a quick point.
The message here is...who's to say that BTC will be worth belly lint in another month? Sure, it looks promising...it's growing at an incredible rate (which will be corrected eventually)...it's gaining popularity world-wide. But, has it even had enough time yet to prove it's solid? I think not....but I'm no economist!
It's just a lot of risk to fork over $5-$7k, for something with so much uncertainty. Would really suck to be holding $7,000 worth of belly lint in 6 months.
