Since I've been mining for like a year now I've found most online calculators to be way short in the estimates that can be made. Especially in the monthly amount as the price goes up daily your profits can be twice as much.

Please don't look at that number and think it's what you'll actually make. If you were around a few months ago for the D3, this is the same thing. The Bitmain business model: 1) Bitmain announces a new miner for a niche algorithm 2) Profit calculators show that you can make what a medium sized S9 mine makes with just one machine, ~$20,000 per month 3) Everyone for whatever reason believes these numbers and buys it 4) Bitmain makes god knows how many millions of dollars off the hype 5) Everyone gets their machines and they're bummed out because the difficulty for that niche algorithm skyrockets and you're left with a near worthless machine 6) Repeat Like I said, I've never gotten an email directly from Bitmain letting me know the exact date and time their S9 will be back in stock, but I've gotten multiple emails about this A3. They're trying to push them out as hard as they can and sell as many as they can while they can.

I personally DONT have a problem with a person ordering 12 miner if that’s the end of their bank roll. I mean if you ordered 12 but tried to order 120 then ya fuck you because that probably means you are some corporate sob with deep pockets.BTW this will be great for btc when all these coins go to be traded for btc the price of btc will raise

D3's were months out these are 10 days + D3's did profit pretty well first batch Well regardless of whether these are being released in 10 days or 2 months, the market will be flooded with them either way in both scenarios once they're released. Did the D3 do pretty well the first batch though? I didn't follow the profits too closely but from what I was told, people didn't make their money back with them, that's why eBay is flooded with them right now and they're selling for nearly as little as the S7 is selling for which is 3 year old hardware, no?

People love to blame Bitmain. Honestly the information is out there. It's not their fault people ignore the warnings and go ahead and take the risk anyway thinking the best will happen when in fact it will not. It's ALWAYS the worst case scenario that comes to pass in mining. Sometimes we just gotta take responsibility for our own stupidity.

Obelisk strikes back We prepared for something like this by adding an extra feature to the SC1. We can do a soft-fork that slightly changes the PoW algorithm which would invalidate the bitmain ASICs, but allow the SC1 units to continue working.

I have 5 D3's running long with S9's, L3+ and BW L21 I know what to expect. I just don't agree with everyone saying it will be worthless in two weeks time.

Sia won't do anything they would look worse than Bitmain, its a free market and anyone can produce miners besides I think Bitmain has a interest in the Sia network for their upcoming IA chip.
