if there are genuine 18k units coming online the end of November, doesn't that mean we will have a HUGE increase in ROI?

I think I finally know why Bitmain is releasing so many. They want to stomp on Dash price to make it look poor relative to Bitcoin. Doing so would bring more people to Bitcoin, thus boosting Bitmains own bitcoin stash.  Jihan must have thought this through.
Why would the number of sold miners affect Dash price?
More miners -> more coins being produced and sold -> lower Dash price.
More miners has ZERO effect on how many coins are produced.
 More miners = more DIFFICULTY, not more coins.
Yes, Dash mean more miners, less Dash. Dash has a dynamic block reward.

Thanks for sharing that!


which will never ever change again since you only get more DASH when the diff is <3k

Except for the yearly 7% reduction that's built in. I know deflation is good but given every block mined gives masternode and governance 55% I think dash overcompensated too much on supply reduction. Needless to say it's going to have to skyrocket or die.

Madness and very bad, Bitmain has sold over 10.000 units today

--> productRemainCount value="10087"

I was going to buy one but seeing so many being sold. I think by the time I get it 15GH/s will probably generate .5 DASH per month so ROI is more or less a year.

yes sure, but my miners are from November 1-14 batch and therefore, more profitable than the ones available now (November 24-30 batch).  

Also, I will handle import taxes into EU and save potential clients the hassle of ordering (which may soon be a hassle again, because stocks are always finite).

Hi,

I have 2 D3s from november 1-15 batch and PSUs. If anyone is interested, let me know. I need 3750€ a piece for D3 + APW3++. Shipping via UPS or DHL to European Union as soon as I receive the miner is included.

PM me.

You do realize these units are currently in stock for November delivery... Meaning anybody can order directly from Bitmain right now...

Shipping via UPS or DHL to European Union as soon as I receive the miner is included. I will receive the miner, pay import tax and send same day via tracked UPD or DHL, if someone buys it before then. Of course, escrow is possible and even encouraged.

PM me.

No you are wrong.  The reason why they are releasing so many is because I bitched and complained to BITMAIN that assclowns that purchase 100's of these for the purpose of reselling are the plague of the world.  Also because a lot of con shops opened up pretending to be BITMAIN and selling cards on their website, taking money and not sending cards ( like what happened to me ) will be eliminated.

I think its great!!  All you idiots who bought 100's with the idea of reselling them are going to get screwed, hahahaha.
You all deserve it!
I hope you all go bankrupt.

LOL that's so mean. But seriously, the way to crack down on that is to set limits on the amount and refund those that bought over. Why does the regular person who wants to test it out suffer for the big buyers faults? I think they should help the little guy and prevent the big guys from screwing everyone over. But this is the messed up society we live in. Everyone perishes right?

This could send the price of Dash up actually, Price is already at $240, would not be surprized if it reaches $400 plus by the end of the year. You have to remember the price could rise when doing your calculations guys, this will intern mean quicker ROI. I strongly believe this will happen...

While it's technically true that one will "ROI" in terms of $USD faster if the price increases, I respectfully disagree that one should take price fluctuations of the underlying cryptocurrency into account when forecasting ROI. Mining ultimately boils down to this question: Will one end up with more coins by mining than one could have purchased for the same amount of money? If the answer is no, then it would make a lot more sense to simply purchase the coins and hold them. It is my opinion that the D3 (in all released batches) will mine a greater number of Dash coins (after electricity expenses) than could have been bought for the same amount and therefore I have purchased the miner.

Probably a lot of expired orders or unpaid orders. Good catch on the view source.

Hi, I think that they want also cut off the market all the people that has bought the miner and resell the account or buy to resell their product making a lot of profit, and in the firsts batchs there was al lot people that has do that.

It has to be some sort of record that D3s are available after 18 hours still available and on sale... reminds me of when L3+ came out intially... they were available for 2 days.
