China Mining Co. Bitmain Shows Higher 2017 Profits Than US GPU Giant Nvidia, Report Finds
https://cointelegraph.com/news/china-mining-co-bitmain-shows-higher-2017-profits-than-us-gpu-giant-nvidia-report-finds

Big markup = big profits. Would probably be < $100/day by delivery. This has to be the riskiest ASIC offering to date. Shall we flip a coin before ordering?

This is going to make some AMD cards more affordable tho. Glad we bought Nvidia only.

Guess you haven't been paying attention... There will be nothing to mine with these CN ASICs. Monero is switch algo, along with other CN coins. They'll be completely useless.

Yes, you're right. And if that happens the biggest problem for those who buy it is how to recover their loss as they can't make any refund even a single cent of their $11999.

Quote
There are financial risks associated with mining cryptocurrencies. These risks can be related to changes in exchange rate of the cryptocurrency or to changes in the algorithm that is used to mine the cryptocurrency. Please deliberate well before making a purchase because we will not accept any requests for refund for orders of this batch.

Not only that - at THOSE prices, what if something happens during shipment? What if you never get the shipment at all?  Mistakes become major mistakes at $12K each.

95% of CN coins will change algo for sure. There's no way on earth that this could be profitable in the long term, unless you got free electricity

What do you mean? Even if I got free electricity what would I mine with the X3?? Is any CN staying?

There is a high probability most, if not all CN coins will fork to invalidate the asic. CN is chosen as an algo because of it's asic resistance. If a CN coin accepts an Asic, it kinda defeats the feature of the algo.

Ofcourse.

Why would they even sell them?

They are selling them now because of the upcoming monero hardfork.

Anyone with just a little brain can figure out this.

First monero goes hardforking hashrate will drop 45-75%... Maybe more?

Lets go to ETN.....sumo.....karbo........ everyone just hardforks.

But at least its good for the hobby miners. They will probably earn alot on this.'

Bitmain sat a high price cause it shows how greedy they are. They are selling equipment that is gonna be useless in a matter of weeks, maybe days now.

If ever an example were needed of how not to sell a new product. There are fundamental problems with any product which drops to a quarter of the initial price within days of introduction.

Hope nobody bought at $12K or Bitmain are offering refunds...

Prior of decision to buy, try to read just a few last pages of Bitmain D3 discussion thread. Those Cryptonight ASICs after the fork will be only luxuries doorstops. That is the business model of Bitmain.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2029822.6140

what is doorstop btw?

12K 1 batch buyers get refund or 3 extra miners.

But if You can't mine anything with them 4 miners are as useless as one more expensive one.

I wish I could understand bitmain logic...

"Hey lets make a siacoin miner that will make $50 day profit after everyone plugs them in and charge 2,500 for them"

...2 months later

"Hey lets make a Monero miner that will possibly make $50 a day after everyone plugs them in IF they don't fork and charge 12,000 for them"

This right here. I am still trying to figure out what the logic is; I assume that there being, you know, more than one coin using the algo means maybe the decline will be a lot slower? Though if they all fork...

There must be something I'm missing.

They are simply trying to charge whatever the market will bear.  They are tapping into an enthusiastic community including gpu miners that are ready for the fleecing.  Baikal also recently release the Giant N 20kh @ ~ $5,600 so if people will by that, they should be willing to pay double for x10 times the hash rate. Right?   Very greedy imo.  Expect their second batch to be offered in 2-3 weeks at less than half the price.
jmo

Didn't even take 2 weeks.... it only took 2 days and they dropped the price to $1900.  What a bunch of jokers...... with a scammy pricing model.  Step 1: Raise price sky high and see how many suckers you can snare.  Step 2: Profit.  Step 3: Lower price to see how many more suckers you can snare.  Step 4: Profit

The miners may even be bricked within a few days of release.

They mine with new miners Monero to death and now they dumping the garbage miners ...
Who wants to buy a miner for $12000 or $21600 (baikal N) with expiration day 2 weeks ?

THIS IS A SCAM AND WHO ORDERED ALREADY HAS TO FILE FOR A LAWSUIT !
This is old hardware and they and they don't inform the buyers that in 2 weeks they can not use it !
You will have 100% Refund if you go to court

They are lowering because they want to get as much money as possible right now. They will be useless before they are shipped. And they know that.
