kinda new to this shit so bare with me ... did any one notice the difficulty just went way up ? coupled with a decrease in value of sia, resulting in the profitability being HALF'D! not even received my 2 a3's yet ffs and last night bought a dragon mint b52 im yet to mine anything in my life and alrdy getting my pants pulled down, can any one offer me any words of condolence ?
chek this shit
i think dragon mint sent 200 machines to a farm or farm way before any normal person received there b52
find the "siamining stats"
look at the hash rate go up by roughly 800 Th's, devide that by the 3.8Th's from each b52 and its somat like 200 machines getting switched on
im very open to being corrected on this as im new [like i said]
Thats how it is with preorders, by the time you get them price can crash or better miners get announced, etc. I typically stay away from preorders due to this. Good luck its a tough long game with minimg anymore
So you only buy items that are in stock, i.e you don't buy directly from Bitmain or Canaan, for example, as they are also preorders? I used to try to buy miners that were in hand, but prices for in stock miners were and are always incredibly high due to price scalping (I've noticed you have to pay a larger premium recently just looking at Computer Hardware). I'd rather take the risk of a price crash (Holding mined BTC in 2015 worked quite well for me) rather than an extended break-even period where similar things can happen.
Blake2B's a new algo and these things regularly happen on new algos. Take a look at the D3 and how it's essentially just a heater now. You took a massive gamble on the B52s, things like this are why I don't buy miners for less 'mature' algos.
