Hi,
I`ve just run into innosilicons offer, A9 Zmaster 1+1 for free, immediate shipping.
https://innosiliconshop.com/innosilicon-a9-zmaster-with-psu-innosiliconThey "helpdesk" claims that BOTH miners will be shipped immediately after payment, although I`m still unsure about this.
Is this even their real site or some kind of a scam?
Can someone confirm this?
Thanks.
100% SCAM.
Agreed, scam. Just check out inno's real website they list this fraud directly I believe.
The whole ASIC thing is a scam!
They release an ASICs with 8 months ROI, then after 6 months they ship faster ASICs that send the diff flying! Then you need to wait another 4 months for a total of 1 year to get ROI.
By then even faster ASICs will be ready and you won't be making any noteworthy money after deducting the power cost.
Think people... if the ASIC miners are profitable, then why would the manufacturers sell them and not keep them for themselves?
They sell them because it makes them money, sure they mine to. So do GPU manufacturers. Asic's can be profitable long after release. Yes new hardware comes out just like any component. Pending a bull market you'll see miners power up old asics and old gpus if it's worth it. Not saying don't be skeptical but there's not need to put the tin foil on. Yes it's a risk, weigh your options.
I wouldn't spend $10k in something like that in order to make another company rich.
If I wanted to invest this amount of money somewhere, I'd just split it into BTC and altcoins. This way I'd support the projects I like without having to worry about hardware stuff. Maybe if enough people would do that then they'd lower the prices to normal levels.
And if you want a steady income, invest in a PoS coin like ARK (dPoS to be precise) or maybe ETH... which might finally become PoS in the future.
There is something to be said about helping secure a network with node, mining, and holdings. Not just one or the other. Early returns are there, early buyers will have ROI in the next 60 days from first shipments. If you're buying now you're relying on market to continue to bull, this is the reason bitmain decided to wait til now to release their Z9 "full" and are still waiting to release their new SHA256 ascis. Market is on the rise as expected. Otherwise wait for the next asic and get in early but pricing will always be high as manufacturers want profits from mining and will sell at a premium because of market value. It's lame, but makes perfect sense.
