Topic: DragonMint T1 16TH/S halongmining.com - page 87. (Read 87857 times)

My buddy ordered one back in November and has yet to get a tracking number so I'm wary on even considering one of these

It's like they have the MOQ set to 5 for checkout, but are showing individual pricing in the main page.

They added something to the description on Myrig:

Getting a similar price here as well; 0.62900328 BTC

That's on myrig, now when I click on my order I get Russian or something.

Is that on Halong? Hah, are they using an old BTC price?

I have yet to see anything in terms of a review for these things yet

Something's not right.

Now i can see on Myrig Website a price: 2.329 Dollar

It is the same price from Halongmining.com

mhh....it is crazy

Thats weird, cause they told us that the earliest shipping will be first april week?!

Interesting, I asked for a quote on the price from Myrig, they are expecting some in stock within 2 weeks???

They are available again on main site. This time at $2329

Also listed as "In stock" on Myrig, though no price.

Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if this is normal... I'm a bit confused... Halong Mining Dragon Mint 16T for sale again. And now you have to do the payment within 15 minutes, Batch 2 Sale you had 1 hour time for payment.... What's going on?

How can i even make a transaction with Bitcoin whitin 15 minutes. Its olmost take a hour for the transaction.

Is there anybody else who is facing this??

Thanks.

DragonMint units back on sale. I will not buy more until there is further proof. I find it odd that they have come on sale again so soon after selling out a week or so ago, especially as crypto is taking a large correction, seems counterintuitive. Just another reg flag for me.  Just my 2 cents.

above post saying maybe dragonmint IS or part of Innsilicon is not a bad guess

it is not like Innsilicon has good reputation anymore after the A5 fiasco


I would suspect...with the price dump in crypto happening...if they are legit here...that there

will suddenly be demo's and availbility to buy units...(see bitmain selling units now on 10 day ship)

so if they exist i expect them to try to move some units rather then fill their data halls anymore

at least, till things maybe settle upward in price again crypto wise at least

my guess...

quite the cluster

I see. Kinda weird how the batch one seem to work better. Thats 1.5 years back.


Hmmm with btc price dropping now, profitability dropped further and for some reason mining difficulty still jumps further sigh.

Aye matey, that I remember all too well. Thing is, the 28nm A1 chip (still debate as to whom the design belongs to, Inno or Bitmine.ch - very convoluted and disputed agreements between them) was not bad for it's time.

Ja the chip had 2 respins before it came close to original design spec and was supposed to be released early Nov 2013 as I recall. The chip was released by Inno Dec. 23, 2013 along with a 2-chip dev board for it. By late Feb 2014 the 1st Dragons and the clones of it were being sold AND WERE NOT MONTHS-AHEAD PRE-ORDERS. It was Bitmine.ch and their North America distributor AMT that from day-1 did pre-orders starting around October 2013 - before ANY usable A1 chips were in the hands of devs. While the Dragon makers did things right and created their own PCB's using the dev boards just as a performance reference, Bitmine did not. They basically took the dev board and replicated it 8x on each hashboard... Speaking of that train wreck seems the A1 CoinCraft thread is still alive and kicking with folks looking for their money...

Anywho, at least they were showing pics as the designs evolved.

My problem with Halong was they wanted a leap of faith with ZERO tangible evidence of their chips existence much less a usable miner. Like I've said before, Halong followed every single step in the Scamming for Dummies Guidebook so wtf did they expect from veterans of the 2013-2014 scam wars? High praise and roses? If Halong had not prematurely put up their website and done pre-orders this whole thread would not be here.

With MyRig stepping in, ok, cool. FINALLY a company that folks here know and trust. The bit about Hotmine.io being interested would fit with the claim of making chips available to 3rd parties and again, they are a known company here.  Now all that remains to be seen is if the miner can be reliably mass-produced.

edit: Kudos for the mods stripping out the warnings from my posts! After reading the MyRig announcement I was going to do it myself and was very surprised the mods had done it for me

Didn't BITMINE also contract Innosilicon for the development of the A1 CoinCraft chip? That project did not end well for BITMINE...

What if HalongMining is Innosilicon?
Maybe coming up with a different name helps, since Innosilicon has a terrible reputation?
Maybe some peace for these few months instead of 1000s of emails about the DragonMint?
We will know soon enough, maybe partnership, maybe just contract work, who knows...
