Don't buy mining hardware, *at all*. You will never make any profit with it (but lose your money).
By ordering (i.e. PRE-ordering) something, you are just giving your money to the society that produces the hardware (and that will use it to earn money for itself). It will ship only when the miners are not really profitable anymore.
Buy only if you know when you will get what you are paying for! (which means don't buy at all now).
Best regards,
ilpirata79

Totally agree with this. Whoever can do a simple math - can find out mining hardware will NEVER pay for itself if bought for prices that are out there.
People who are aware of that are buying BTC directly hoping it will go up in price. Even smarter people are probably just watching.

Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

What is your alternative then? Alternative to make some money? Get a job.  Seriously, if you're into mining to make money, but mining coins is more expensive than just buying coins, then buying mining-hardware makes little sense, don't you think? |

That "any" is rubbish if you don't take into account Mh/$.
If you mean to say that ALL miners for sale today are too expensive, so too low Mh/$ for the current and future difficulty, that's a different issue.
With "never pre-order" I agree 100% though.

If I can get a few million satoshis per month as a bonus to offset the cost of burning a few kilowatt hours of electricity to heat my home in the winter, why not?
If I can also contribute to the strength of the network, even better.

I think we agree after all, because my post reflects today's situation, where there is no miner worth buying (pre-orders or too expensive miners). I don't think something worth buying will appear in future by these asic companies. The only maybe viable solution that I see would be to become owner of part of one, if the cost of shares is appropriate. best regards, ilpirata79 |

My post refers to the attempt at making a profit by mining bitcoins. Heating your home in winter is another story. Regarding the security of the network, it is probably good that different asic companies fight with each other to produce more efficient products. The only thing is that they should do that with their money, not ours. Best regards, ilpirata79 |

If you thereby strengthen a bitcoin-based economy, no longer just based on speculation against fiat currencies, even better. |
