"Nobody got the memo on the Giant-B"The Giant B is Vapor Ware as of this writing as far as I know.... no units on the market as of this post nor any idea on when they will be ready. https://www.baikalminer.com/product10.phpPricing for some pre-sales at $20k for 80/GH ... I'll pass on this thanks. https://asicminermarket.com/product/baikal-miner-giant-b/Rumour has it SIA Group is communicating with Netflix and probably/hopefully others..... Personally, I am into it for the long hall and bought 6 /SCI-1. No risk.... no reward :-) Gotta play the game to win! I have received 2 of the Giant-B today, I can confirm it's not a vaporware, first batch price was around $3,500. They're being setup at my mining location tomorrow.

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Unicorn investments could be a good angle Well, when BFL in 2013 never shipped, I was able to write it off my taxes like equip (loss) with the CPA in 2013..when by dumb luck a week before SEC closed them down in 2014 I think it was? , I got a refund and had to report that as income so if all goes tulips.....well..thus the logic of the 1st 5 units as an IF btc tanks hedge this last summer (not...I mean NOT my wisest move...the above last summer get 5 obelisks hedge)

It's my opinion the SC1 would do far better to generate profit compared to the DCR1 given SIA hasn't jumped in price yet. Lots of headroom to turn those coins into $1 per than Decreed going to $200 per. Batch 2 sale ends on the 31st of January.

Obelisk is USA based and under US law.
If they don't deliver, they must refund and the entire SIA project would be auto-tanked and never recover.
All in or all out basically.
Just my thoughts....

What a silly little rule *sigh* You're able to post the links to the images, but the images won't show until you get a Jr. Member (30 posts/activity). It's to lower the amount of spam & scam, works fine imho. Either way, I'll post the links to the images tomorrow at least!

Well, maybe but did you read their "Terms"? Says you give up the right to a Class Action lawsuit if you enter the preorder. Always read up before you invest.

Fair enough but.... in business.... if you don't have credibility as a smallish company... you won't get far and the coin would end up as coin dust. No one would back it seriously. Ie. Netflix etc.... And I see that is the end game here not the coin value persay.

this was not the case with BFL in 2015 I think it was..the corporation went bankrupt...the owners were protected..kept all the BTC they mined with pre-order money for more than a year ( I say a year because no reinvest new product and no shipping) and the max fine ONE of them got was 30k..... the rest of it went to the SEC to settle they walked completely nothing has changed in USA law to change this..they are protected by being a corporation and were NOT prosecuted with BFL corp taking the fall so hosed... they were based out of Kansas I think brad

Found the Baikal unicorn!https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2595145.0;allAfter reading all of the posts, I am still to find one non-reseller or dealer with any actual units and Baikal is claiming sold out. I find it interesting that the reseller cannot get any units except of course his personal units he is selling at $15k USD post-crash LMAO.... I stand my ground on Vapor Scam/Ware for the Baikal units. Buyers totally beware!

I did the math and calc/projection on Decred and couldn't justify it and opt'd to buy into SCI-1 more for the same price point.
Better potential ROI. Just my instinct.
Looking to reinvest into SIA-GEN-2 if all works out on this....
yeah that is my thoughts...IF siacoin makes it ..IT WILL NOT be due to the price and speculation of this coin..it will be due to the ASIC network and their decentralized anon storage solutions at 10c to Amazon's $1.00 in pricing with the amount of siacoin generated..that is the ONLY way such an ASIC network can pump out that many coin for this whole idea to make sense anyway my (likely clueless) interpetation of this now do I man up and get some more machines with my coupon...or sit like I have today and watch the FUD and crypto prices dump as I sit an pucker up tighter and tighter fun retirement I started yesterday (yep thats what did it, me retireing due to crypto etc, I broke the works) sorry about that (what do they say about 'timing is everything' ..If I'd done this LAST WEEK as least I could have 'gloated' for a week) Why would having asic miners have anything to do with the coin's value and longevity? the same amount of coins will be generated in the same increments, its just that difficulty will shoot up and a few hundred people that own these miners will own the network.
