I wonder... When will it be limited by DAG size? Any info available on internal memory?

Why ask here?
The only available information is what Bitmain has posted on their sales site.

at 800 bucks it was still less than 4 bucks a day ...if I remember right from a while back...was not all that great at the $800 buck price .now it is beyond stupid to get one


Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

The real danger for ETH/ZEC etc miners is POS not Bitmain.

And I think Vitalik will take POS more seriously now with Bitmain treat.

There is no point to buy any mining equipment anymore neither GPU or Asic.

ithink most of the eth hash rate is asics so pos will fuck bitmain and thier ilk more thangpu miners

Buying one of these seems risky as fuck. Any news regarding PoW/PoS change on Ethereum? Even tho these miners are cheap, they will not ship for a long time (crypto time). New nvidia cards could come out, making this hashrate a joke. Alot of risk involved in these.

Rofl, better buy yourself two ethereums now and cut the drama with mining and making BITMAIN money. This company is dragging all of us down and you are still up for buying their shitty products? When this shit aSIC hits the markets, the difficulty would be so high, so making 800$ profit would take you around 1 year or so? Better get your ETH straight out of the exchange and save yourself the hassle.

Gpu miners are in bigger trouble,atm about 80% of all gpus mining are on eth and what do you think will happen with all those gpus when eth goes pos because no other coin can take all that hash power and still be profitable to mine it?This mining cycle hype was triggered buy eth being really profitable to mine it last year...

POS is a complete joke. No real protocol has or will use it. It's easily hackable and it promotes centralized control. Why do you think not one single coin that is anywhere near legitimate, is POS. POS = Piece Of Shit. If ETH goes POS it will be dead in 6 months to a year. It may run as a POW/POS hybrid, but 100% POS? Little Dracula would be an idiot to do that.

You only live once....if you do it right, once is enough.

Well, someone might have the answer here - or maybe have been in touch with Bitmain about this.

$462?

I smell a "new node" Gigahash Bitmain miner announcement in June for Scrypt.

Guess they got tired of being beat on efficiency by the A4 and matched/beat by the L21 - or more likely slowing sales of the S9 have left them some "available space" to order current-node chips for something else they've been working on for a while.

But with $200 coupons, that's like $400 a unit including shipping.  Just for screwing around I got 4 for less than I paid for 1 unit 6 months ago!  Also picked up 2 E3 at the $800 price

Dam $462, that might be the sign of the last squeeze before a new scrypt miner announcement.  Getting every last drop.  I guess not so bad with a coupon i mean even at a 100% loss its doable for someone looking to mess around with a miner.

It's significantly better than a D3 or V9 based off current earnings for both miners (through Nicehash's calculator) at $0.10/kWh (both are in the red), no ASIC Bitmain currently offers really beats the L3+ at this price point. Wouldn't be a bad miner to introduce people to mining or how to set up miners in general, and at lower electrical costs this thing could potentially be quite profitable. Plus these things are supposed to deliver in just a week or two, not bad at all.

I also agree there's got to be a new Scrypt miner coming from Bitmain soon- there's no reason that they'd drop prices this steeply without something new coming soon.

Since we are already so far off track, I just noticed the X3 has sold out as well. Could just be Bitmain removing all stock on their site, I find it unlikely that anyone would buy that $2000 heater that also happens to ship in May.
