At least in the states gpu’s are readily available now and most nearing normal retail values in many cases. I’ve seen stick in almost every store and every website as of late.

Vosk, one point I'd like to see you mention is that the ASICs coming out now separate the haves from have-nots.  Its impossible to get GPUs at retail price, and the people who can, have inside connections.  I don't think its a surprise that Bitmain is suddenly releasing all of these ASICs now that gpus are scarce and expensive.  At least these antminers allow anyone to get involved in mining, not just people who happened to be lucky enough to buy mass amounts of GPUs when they were 300 bucks each.  Lets also not forget about the lack of innovation from Nvidia and AMD.  AMD gpus underperform and cost too much.  Nvidia refuses to even release new models because there are no competition. The 10 series is 2 years old.  Kind of ridiculous that people insist on using old technology in the name of decentralization.


I guess it depends on were you live i just bought a 570 AMD 4gb for 309 after rebate paid 329 on sell and i don't have any inside connections new egg has a few selling for 339$ or more  570 and 580....

I was never a negative guy and always support GPU mining. But this is bad guys its the begining of the end for GPU mining again. Equihash has alot of hashrate and if it becomes unprofitable with gpus the rest of the coins will take a massive dive too Sad

This is exactly why they are calling this version the mini. Its a marketing and profit ploy. ZCash and Zencash are already not forking, so they will be able to sell a lot of these ASICs. Zencash was so kind to even retweet bitmains release tweet. Probably getting paid from bitmain too.
