I honestly think if they hold on the sales will pick up because time will erase some of the concerns.  I am considering picking one of these up if they are still for sale here in a few months.  But for now I have too many irons in the fire already.  LOL

I know that feeling well

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

On the other hand, I scratch my head and think about getting more as well

Going for the EPIC win or EPIC fail on such a bet.....

the music below on what I feel like when I try to decide on an ASIC machine purchases

Great! Sad

This thread is full of future ASIC Anonymous Members..( I have a problem...I pre-order ASIC units 1 year in advance)....so more of us to go...running amuck thru this thread to. and co-enable me and my kool-aid drinking ASIC miner pre-order/unicorn riding...ASIC addiction..and 'taint' newbies to the fold.....sheesh

the kool-aid drinking is fierce in this thread Smiley

mining was supposed to be a 'silly harmless hobby' when I started in 2013...

so here we go...wind up the unicorn and charge into 2018 (I got to be out of my frigging mind)

That doesn't really help my concerns at all.  I like the coin, but the development team seems to have issues, will this coin even be around by July of next year?

Honestly I don't think it is as much faith in the coin as the lead times before you would get the miner.  We don't know what will happen from one day to the next, and scream bloody murder when someone wants to do a pre-order 2 or 3 months out in advance.  This miner is a year in advance. 

The story would be very different right now if they were talking about Sept/October ship date.  People would still be complaining, but they would be putting their money on the table.  If it were a faith in the coin issue it wouldn't matter if they were shipping today, people wouldn't buy it.  I think people want to buy an Obelisk.  The timeline is too long at the moment for most people.

I will probably try to snag one of these if they are still available when I have the funds.

I was told these miners will only do blake2b is it? Not blake2 coins?

So could blake2b coins be invented? Or is that impossible and I just looped
into making a siacoin doppelgänger instead, defeating the whole concept?

(Ouch, sprained my brain)

I don't know all (/any) of the details, but there WAS a coin a few years ago called OCTANE that used Blake2b. Skunk coin, inactive dev. team, never made it onto an exchange.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1100713.160

BUT it does show that it's possible... and these ASICs COULD bring about a lot more attention to the algo... If IIIIIII were to attempt to release a coin right now, I'd definitely make it Blake2b on the expectation of these SC1 ASICs. I figure I'd have at least a 1,000 miners looking for a coin like mine... especially if I could make it an auxiliary coin capable of merge mining.

that is true. they do seem like a well managed and professional team though.

it might be a very good investment, if the market is still in a boom...

if I understood correctly, they will keep selling SC1's until they fill the 4000 order? so I could still wait a couple of months? or will they suddenly close the order book?

Who knows man, a lot can happen in a year. We'll see x number of turmoils like this.

I decided not to buy it personally, I'd rather put 1 btc now and hodl 300k sia.
Actually I bought millions back when it was 10 satoshis, but sold it. Cheesy

That's what I did, just bought 200k SC, decided to hold it until these miners come out.

that does seem like a good way to go about it, but still, I really like the idea of a passive income from mining...
