What I feel really annoyed about is the fact that I have got coupons to use but I am unable to use them due to the stock issue that they had today.

Bitmain can you please update your fellow customers on what your plans are and what can be done.

Thank you

Oh WOW,

I am flattered by the fact that my post had so many responses...

Thank you all, and also for your kind words.

However NONE of you has answered my question because ALL of you are UNABLE to......

WHEN is Bitmain going to lower their prices to make it more "profitable" for us given the upcoming difficulty changes?


Once again thank you all for being so fabulous and pointing out that I am out of order here....

I couldn't be more grateful....


As I said before, I doubt they would plan on lowering the price at least before another big batch. Even at 1.45 it's still the best value out there, and should be quite profitable.

That's using the estimated next growth with a little extra fudge factor, bringing it up to 3.1B. It's also starting at 25% growth per jump, even though the last two were 22.59% and 19.49%, and this one will be 17-18%. Even with those reasonable assumptions, it shows a breakeven in early May. I'm not a huge fan of online profit calculators, but even at 1.45BTC the S1's will be profitable. It just won't be as profitable as some of the other batches. I have enough hardware that I don't want to take on anymore from this generation, but I think I might be marginally interested at this price. Not enough to expand my farm though.

Unfortunately, they're in the business of making money, and only help up make a profit insofar as it helps them make money. If they can sell out their current stock at 1.45, there's no reason to lower the price no mattre how much we may want it.


Finally, a real response!

Thanks bro.

Though I think they should lower their price since AvalonShenzhen has already dropped their price on the 220GH to 1.1BTC.

Their competitors have lowered their prices, and today when we were all expecting to grab a couple of Ants (at a lower price) and nothing happened and we get a post that they are all sold out!!!!!
WHEN?Huh
I was behind this all the time!

Anyway, I believe that Bitmain should lower their prices to match the competition also given the facts that 3 days from now the difficulty will increase and no machines will be delivered before that,
It is a fair request I believe.
That was my point in the first place  Wink

What competition do you speak of that currently sells stock on hand for less that Bitmain should be price matching?



Its he who shall not be named.

I couldn't agree with you more, but the issue here is that Bitmain has to lower their prices in order to remain (at the top) in the market and competitive.
Otherwise it wouldn't be profitable for me to get an Antminer for 1.45BTC now.

So then why do you not go and buy from the competitors then? Obviously Bitmain still has something on them or you wouldn't still be here whining about it.

It will take you 12 weeks to reach an amount of 1.710976 - given the facts that it works non stop and properly -
PLUS that doesn't include power costs.
So tell us, Wise oh Wise Hero Member, where are the droids we are looking for?


EDIT: The estimates given above are for only a 20% difficulty increase


17% on top of ROI in 12 weeks... name another investment where you can get those kinds of returns!

Hello  Wink

Limited S1 units will be in sotck soon.
Open sales on Feb 14th 11:00 pm BeiJing time, GMT +8.
Shipment within 48 hours after full payment.



sold out again Wink
all orders will be shipped out on Feb.16.

next batch of S1 units will be stock on Feb 15th, open sales on Feb 15th 11:00 pm BeiJing time, GMT +8.

Sold out my ass.
There were a hundred people here constantly refreshing and trying to order one and nobody got the chance to.

Will there really be more for sale tomorrow?
And if there is at what price?

Because ordering tomorrow doesn't get in our possession until Thursday (if we are lucky) but by then the difficulty has increased.
The same goes for the ones who supposedly ordered all of the machines today.

How are the Ants going to make ROI from now on?

 


Then please dont order any.


"These droids are not the droids your looking for."  move along.

har har har, you are so wise hero member...

tell us, how is your 1.45BTC miner ordered today received by Tuesday (if you are lucky) gonna break even when by the time you receive it, it only makes 0.0276 per day and about 3 weeks after that it makes only 0.02208? and three weeks after that 0.017664, 0.0141312, 0.01130496, 0.009043968... and so on....

Only in btc land can someone be upset about hitting positive ROI in 3 months time.  Plus there is never a shortage of people who will buy that miner off you in 3 months for more than it will mine for the rest of its life.  So yes, I would say it sounds like a good investment, hence why I have 16.

Ok, so if you have no bitcoin, explain to me how you go about getting bitcoin that's not connected to the usd price? You can buy btc a lot cheaper today than last week so 1,45 btc is a lot cheaper in fiat than it was last week... no? It's not too difficult to understand is it?



OK . so you have 2000$ . you buy for this some amount of btc (depend on price )

you can keep btc at your wallet or you can invest btc in Bitmain equipment

if you invest 1.45 and after few months receive 1.45 btc back , you did good investment ?

i think that Bitmain serve community very well , it really best mining hardware company that i know but  with current diff rate ( or upcoming next diff on sunday ) price need to be adjusted

what a waste of time!

what sort of a joke are you guys playing at?

create scarcity and keep the price up??

and there was me thinking you had more integrity than that...

over 2 hours for nothing!!
I guess it's due to their policy of only selling from stock and never taking pre orders. They must be struggling to keep up with demand being the only supplier actually supplying. With today's btc price, those machines are mighty cheap!

not connected to btc/usd price . 1.45 is to close that this device will bring back .

i'm with klondike_bar , reasonable it <1.25 or new product .

don't be avalon(year ago) last batch buyer .
If you're buying with fiat, they're a lot cheaper than they were a week or so ago.... that's all.
BUY directly bitcoin , Bitmain store accept only btc so you pay fixed btc price . not connected to btc/usd rate .

you spend for device 1.45 and you expect to receive more btc back , right ?

It's like the Black Friday of ASIC hardware!  Stand in line, limited quantity, first 10 get it.
I bought my first one last week and received two days ago from Sushi.  Love it!  Missed out on today's batch.  Can't wait for another!
