Hey guys, I was on freebitco.in and saw a banner ad for a supposed great deal on Bitcoin miners. The site is http://lightningasic.me/ and they are offering 1 THs BTC miners for 0.95 BTC. To me that sounded too good to be true. However, they do claim to be from China, where I'm guessing it would be possible to assemble and sell a 1 THs miner for .95 BTC and still make a profit. But, I don't know... I just didn't have a good feeling reading over it.

For starters- that is Way below all other competitors for 1 THs (that I know of). I understand the concept of charging lower prices and in turn selling more units, but I feel that price is suspiciously low.

Second- they claim Free worldwide shipping to have your order in 3-4 days Max.

Third- It seems they have a deal if you want to buy 10 of the 1 THs miners, you can get them for 7.2 BTC. "Pay with Bitcoin" button below...
I'm sure they would be more than happy to take your 7.2 BTC....

Anyways guys, this is just how I feel. Check the site out yourself and let me know what you think. I am not even a miner, I'm just trying to look out for you guys/our community.


P.S.- If many people have done successful business with this company, and they are legitimate, I will apologize fully and take this thread down upon seeing proof of successful transaction.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.
