Those who are serious please register their interest as of now we have not even reached 100 quantity, we need MoQ of 200 to get this price from Baikal. And when MoQ reached everyone will make payment directly to baikal to receive direct shipments.


Then why don't you just start posting the official offer from baikal to get this going?? I'm pretty sure there are more members here are waiting in silence.

Find the Baikal website.  It has contact info on it.  Reach out to the them.  They respond, quickly.  They will tell you if this is legit or not.

M

EDIT: Watch out for scam websites pretending to be Baikal.  I believe this is their website: www.baikalminer.com.

That pretty stupid from Baikal ... They are stuck with this ASIC, no one want to buy it anymore at this price.
Drop price to what buyers want will at least reduce damage loss, and back to the game with a real and competitive product is the right way for Baikal ...
U can setup overhyped price when u are the GOLDEN ONE, Baikal is the student on the end of the class near the windows and want to act like brilliant student LOL

bitmain could destroy bitcoin with fork FUD etc and do just fine...see now they are working on distributed asic for cloud based artificial intelligence

see I knew they we're frigging evil

Skynet!

https://qz.com/1053799/chinas-bitmain-dominates-bitcoin-mining-now-it-wants-to-cash-in-on-artificial-intelligence/

so muddy'ing up bitcoin and forks etc and walking with the profits....they'd be just fine and never look back..if it was to their advantage

To pile on a little bit here is the arithmetic:

BM is selling a D3 for delivery in late Nov for $1450. (1450/15)*2 = $194  

$1000 is 5X this number.

An additional benefit for Baikal, is the opportunity not many companies get, of flushing the production line and inventory of an older model and moving on. Everyone queuing up to purchase a 2Gh/s model can do the numbers.

So there are several options:

1) You take the money for 200 units and just run.

2) The design solution for your 2 Gig miner is a higher cost one and you just can't go any cheaper.  

3) You don't have enough development money for a follow on product and are liquidating the business.


If you are long term thinkers, I would just be upfront. At this time though, your business model is OBE.

baikal's current business model works for seller's market, just like several months ago when dash and most alt coins were in low price and miners are used to 12 months+ ROI...
however, now it's buyer's market, because there are lots of competitions right now, and miners have way more options, so they can compare...which is important...
if baikal still think 12 months ROI is OK to sell, the picture will be ugly for them

Hi $3000 is too high, because after customs fee and Italian VAT (22%) it would be around $3700~3800 with ROI time of 130~140 days absolutely not cost-effective for me. I like Baikal miner but not with this ROI ratio, 75~90 days would be acceptable but 60~74 days are better.

If after september 15th, they can offer some decent price. for example, $500 per miner, i would consider buying several...
still, this machine will not show any value on x11 mining, as the monster miners are coming, but for other algos, x13/14/15/Quark/Qubit...$500 is still a good deal...

the catch is ...with what they have invested in developing this machine ..they would be better off just mining it at this point asap....

the extra time now getting it to consumers makes no sense.....they are that far behind (imho)

I agree.  That explains why they won't budge on the price AND why x11 difficulty keeps going up.
