Yeah everyone basically saying fuck you to them. They treated everyone like dirt. Would not allow any pre-orders. When the coin went up they stopped selling the product altogether. Than after Bitmain and others come out with miners they ask a ridiculous price for the miner.  After all the treatment and lies and scams.. I really would not be surprised if they were doing the scamming themselves so they could make more money by selling nothing!

Why else would they keep orders on Skype where there was at least a dozen con artists?  Because they were the con artists and could claim you were scammed sorry next..

I contacted and they are selling these for 2000 now if you place an order of 100. Is it worth it?

I contacted them, and they said:

Quote
there is launching a group-buy activity, now one Giant+ unit price could offer 3000usd.
Shipping date: within 3 days after confirm the payment.

So you can get one quickly, but you will pay a premium for it.

There are vendors offering a single unit price shipped of $2600.  And there isn't any group buy that I am aware of going on for the Giant+ on this forum.  So what you were just told is what I would call a lie.  And they can't even keep their pricing straight.  This is exactly why people are so pissed off at them.   

I would have setup a group buy for them here on this forum because my dealings with them in the past HAD been good.  However that all vanished when they became rock stars for a short while and they were the only game in town.  Then they wouldn't talk to anyone.  Then when they did setup a group buy with someone on this forum it wasn't really a group buy, but a negotiated price at which the forum member could mark up the price substantially and pocket the difference.  It wasn't a group buy, but a reseller activity that was screwing the forum members.  As soon as the word got out that the street price about the same price as the group buy the forum member screwing the community suddenly ended the group buy.  Baikal has treated everyone who has tried to work with them and even help them badly and I don't think they understand the ramifications of their actions. 

Now all the mega miners show up, and Baikal's Giant+ are about to be crushed by the hash rate.  They have been mining these 2gh miners but now they know they will not be profitable for much longer so now is the time to dump them on the rest of us.

Sadly the price isn't even in the ball park.  Anyone doing the math sees today you would earn a little over $20 a day with that miner, you got maybe 30 days before the first massive waves from Bitmain hit.  You already have waves of iBelink miners landing. 

So let's do some really basic math, even if by some MIRACLE you were able to continue making 20 a day your talking 150 days before ROI with a $3000 price tag.  You aren't going to get 150 days making 20 a day... I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the math don't add up.  Your talking well over a year to see ROI if you are lucky that these miners stay profitable at all.

This isn't that hard.  I know the ballpark of what the miner will be earning because I have the first generation Giant and I am watching those getting crushed already.  So if you think the earning power on the Giant+ is going to defy diff and somehow pull off a miracle for you then by all means get your order in now.

Some of us are just trying to help.  Until Baikal can deal honestly and fairly with the forum and can learn to communicate and work with us I am not in any rush to help them.  They have been laughing all the way to the bank and now the party is coming to an end for the Giant+ until they can get a bigger, better, badder miner built and then they will vanish again as they are too busy mining to deal with customers.

They have burned a lot of bridges and this is yet another example of why people are very angry with them.  They have a lot of work to do if they want to repair their relationship with this forum.

Also not for nothing but I have been exchanging emails with baikal for a few weeks now and they are very quick at responding even though english is not their first language the fact that they respond very quickly is a huge PRO in my book for them. Contacting bitmain takes at least 5 days to get a response and by that time I completely forgot what I had even emailed them about.

I just ordered a Baikal Giant+ miner myself I think it is worth it to get a few more weeks of mining dash at current difficulty before the price goes skyrocketing (Which is what I'm hoping for) so I think it is a gamble but I also think it is a good risk vs reward gamble 4000 for a miner that could possibly net that ROI in a few weeks (as I suspect dash price to increase 10 fold everything is rising right now like crazy).

The long and short of it is NO.  100 units... they will have a hard time selling individual units for that price.  They are about to be crushed under a flood of mega monster miners.

Worst company ever. They agreed to a price and then changed their mind. 2 days later offered that price. Agreed to another price and then said it was a mistake.

They are clueless and are going to piss every customer they have off.

Not worth my time.

Well, i just heard from my sources that Baikal is planning to release Baikal MEGA MINER, so i would HODL for now  Wink

How reliable is this source?  Any time frames mentioned for this MEGA?  This would be good news for Baikal if true and if soon.

The news from this source have been reliable in past. But there is no timeline as apparently baikal first wants its existing stock sold out while Mega Miners mine profits for them.

So they want us to buy all their overpriced machines while they mine with better rigs before releasing the better rigs to the people? Sounds like a great deal!!!





/Sarcasm

It wouldnt surprise me that baikal would try to pull this kind of shit.
I bought a miner at 7k and was so mad when they lowered their price.

none at the moment.

Thank you. I suppose there are no other ASIC miners that would support any other combination of two or more different algos?

waste of money ... just D3  Grin Grin Grin Grin

They are definetly expensive at 4k but they have some value for sure.
Those extra algos might be worth more around 2k
