I have had success with raffling off a miner before (see
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/raffle-for-one-antminer-t17-40-ths-free-usa-shipping-5239764) so I was approached by another forum member here and was asked to raffle off one of their miners, and if successful to raffle off a second miner as well, a S17+ 73 TH/s unit.
The miner is currently running a Vnish firmware branded with "AsocDip" and is steadily and efficiently running at 58 TH/s --- winner of the raffle will have the choice of keeping the Vnish firmware or unit can be reset to Bitmain's current and latest firmware - please note, if reset to Bitmain's latest S17pro firmware, the SD card will be disabled and there will be no chance of changing the firmware in the future. At least to the best of my knowledge that is the case with the latest Bitmain firmware.

https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=000201908131025150618stdgtjt0729I am going to go with 50 slots, each slot will afford the buyer 2 numbers so 2 chances of winning - pricing is as follows: .003
BTC per slot
People can buy as many slots as they so desire to increase their odds. This is a great way to take a small risk, and have a chance of getting a decent piece of hardware at a minimal price.
This will include free shipping in the Continental USA, shipping to anywhere else is at the winners expense.
I will not provide a payment address until 40 of the 50 slots have been selected - once payment address is posted, please send payments promptly as you risk losing your slot if you do not pay. The address I provide will be an escrow address and one that has not been used or will ever be used for anything other than this raffle.
When the raffle has been concluded, I will hold the funds until the owner has shipped the miner and the winner has received it, only once the winner confirms receipt will I release funds to the seller - essentially I will be serving as escrow on this deal. Seller is paying the escrow fee as well.
After all blocks have been selected and paid for, I will select a future block number and post it here in advance.
The last two digits found in the block will determine the winner.
