Just to give an idea of profitability, before the first batch was released, per day return was around $500, everyone jumped to buy it, hoping to have some profit, but the way Bitmain sold so many units(1st batch), within 2 weeks it went down to $20, even worst they announced second batch with such a low price, thinking that ppl are fool enough to cash on them, end of the day, Bitmain sucked on all the profit and leave the miner, who are the backbone of any crytocurrency functioning to suffer, i have no words. if truly Bitmain was concerned and be part of crypto world they should'nt have released in such huge quantity and made everyone suffer.
You are absolutely clueless. What do you mean before the first batch? No when the first batch was released it was $500 because there were a few lucky people who got their miners days before others. As the hashrate started to rise to normal levels of course the profitability dropped. No educated person bought an A3 thinking it was going to be making hundreds of dollars a day indefinitely. Have you checked the bitcoin charts? Every crypto has been in a freefall the past few weeks. Profitability is down on literally everything. I suppose that is Bitmain's fault too.
