Looking at the Asicrun miners, wonder if anyone here has or is using them and thoughts....

I trade  cryptos  but have not mined. Also know that this isnt the "happiest" market right now but consideing buying one and trying mining. Any recommendations of other hardware appreciated.
Thanks

So FWIW I did some more research. Asicrun Hashrate/power seems total BS.  Also on a reddit forum read of a number of peeps  paid their coin and received .....nothing....... scammed.

So. Whats good hardware for someone  starting out? This page
https://coincodex.com/article/33356/asic-miners/
lists various miners -most brands I have heard of.  Whatever I buy, dont want to be wedded to just BTC. Any suggestions  very much appreciated.  I am from the US and am living in Ecuador. Electricity here is comparatively cheap.
Thanks

If you go with an ASIC, you'll be mining one coin most of the time. Some ethash or other algos can mine other coins, just as the BTC asics can, but truly its only the one algo. so if you want to be able to jump around onto different coins, then GPU mining is more for you. Otherwise you can get an ASIC and just use one of the many pools that allow you to switch your payouts into something else.
Stick with the main ASIC manufacturers, as they are usually most reliable with best support, parts availability, and information online. (Bitmain, Goldshell, Jasminer, Whatsminer, Iceriver)
