Still not sold out, wonder how big this batch is?
Maybe not a lot of buyers... People scared by previous Cryptonight forks... which in 1st batch for rest coins still profitable and faster ROI compare with GPU's, but not flexible as GPU.

This is equihash, not cryptonight.
And yet what just happened with the CryptoNight ASICs may very well be what happens to those for Equihash. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it, the old saying goes.
X3 is actually doing pretty well. It is easy to overclock and mine is hashing at 50% more than the advertised rate at 320 kH/s. By the time rest of the coins fork, it should pay for itself or more if anyone used coupon to buy it
Thanks Hawkfish for the report on the X3. That gives me some hope that maybe the Z9 will have a chance to get to us in time to at least get an ROI before everyone forks off.
I bought a few myself and planning to buy more. I am not worried, in order to stay in the game gotta upgrade constantly. The 1080 Tis it will replace can mine something else, they are paid for by mining ZEC long time ago.
I bought a z9. I also have gpu mining rigs. I dont see anything wrong with ASICS, we just need more competition in the industry. Just grabbed a few! I'm loving the low power requirements.
I'm torn ... hovering over the :Submit: button on Bitmain's website ...
Daily profit?
10k sol/s - so about 0.004 BTC per day currently
Emphasis on currently. That will disappear when they start shipping. I wonder how long Bitmain has been mining with these before announcing?
Bitcoin Private > Zcash
BTCP will be bitmain-resistant
BTCP will be bitmain-resistant
also your horse and carriage is car resistant ...
and your waterfall powered mill is electricity resistant ... because fuck new tech
yeah I always make it a point to blowup any and all death stars.

It's not the technology that is the problem, rather, it's the predatory (and illegal in the US) behavior of the company that dominates ASIC mining: Bitmain.

Plenty of other coins, and coins to come this machine will be useful for. Gotta love the people trying to say its a brick when its not. Neither is the CN or ETH miners. ...
The 20kH/s Giant N CN ASIC now only brings in about $3US per day... Can't really say it is profitable until the capital cost is paid back, and at this rate that will be around 2 years from now if you got in on the first batch at $1900US each.
Agreed 20Kh/s was not interested from the begging. They suppose to release N+ with 40 Kh/s but still not even close to 220 Kh/s from Bitmain.
True, the Baikal miner proved to be a rather poor choice based on price vs. hashrate, but even the 220kH/s Bitmain CN ASIC only brings in about $30US per day as of right now, so it will take 400 days to pay off the capital cost if nothing else changes. And of course, the one thing you can count on in crypto is change.
Regardless, what I am really driving at here is that if the biggest hashrate coin on an algo forks to block ASICs, such as Monero did with CryptoNight, then the difficulty rise on the remaining coins makes mining them much less attractive.
Baikal sells 1 + 4 ASIC's for 3600$, so you get 5 Baikals N+ with 40 Kh/s on Cryptonight (old) for price 1 device. Still not interesting..
Another news I read today. Netherlands exchange discard Bitcoin Cash because of May 15th fork. Weird...

it is not worth it.
check profitability. at current prices it might ROI in 2 month....

You want ROI in 1 day? 2 month I would say, not to bad even good :-) any Vega/1080Ti ROI is minimum 9 months.

They are just trying to keep it fair between gamers, miners, and AI developers. ITs commendable.
