If you know Bitmain you would realize this is nothing new. If I recall they have been doing this since the Antminer S5 days.

It's actually a good thing that if you order a miner from them and it comes with dust, it means it was tested at least.
Because they sometimes assemble their miners, don't test and ship them half way across the world and when they are plugged in they are dead on arrive. Then they require a trip back half way across the world.

That was a wise answer, a bit agree with that.

The most suspected (by most people) thing is that Bitmain sold Miner that been used (as we know as silent mining that does by Bitmain), that article showed some images that new received mining equipment with a lot of dust on its heatsink. I'm not sure about which the right one.

But for me, that was easy.
If you trust them, buy it!
If you doubt, don't even to see their products. Leave it!

this is a sanction that the firm has always done.
After completing the upcoming release of the devices, the devices are handed over to the market.
When you buy the device, most revenue sites appear to be very high.
The equipment goes down to the hand, and the amortization time goes up.

And I'm sure it was tested for many months to years before they deliver to you trolls hehe, bitmain earned as much money as nvidia last year with shady/evil business practices and you trolls helped it to achieve it, is hilarious hehe

Yeah that is absolutely insane that they made as much as Nvidia.


Also I'm pretty sure my L3+s were used before I got them. Seriously Bitmain sucks.
