Either ETH bricks a bunch of Chinese shit as soon as they are shipped or crypto mining is ruined totally.

I think he'll brick all their shit desu and watching the salty tears will be awesome. All the butthurt over $5000 paper weights will be glorious.

Ethereum has a reason to switch to a CPU friendly hash mining algo now.

Excellent

wait, 220mh/s for 3000$? This is about what you'd get from just buying RX480s, not even bios modding them.

Laugh at the asic cucks.

>He buys graphics cards for 2x-3x overprice

AMD is manufacturing more cards, wait 3-4 weeks and you'll see new RX500s and vegas hitting the markets for a bit over msrp.

3000$ fr an asic miner that gets 220mh/s is ridiculously bad. You can get 220mh/s from 7-8 RX480s or RX 580s, which a few months ago was 250$ a card, or $1750-2000. Fucking nigger get out of here. Even right now this asic miner is hardly better than current 400$ grpahics cards. I fucking laugh.

If you weren't getting raped and were getting them for 300 that's actually about right.

>> No.7593306

>>7593222
So you are judging a current market price based on a non existent historical price of a consumer grade card that is highly in demand and no longer going for those low prices?


WTF why would you buy a new f150 when a mode T was only $100! You are getting fucked!!

read the last 2 sentences you illiterate pajeet streetshitter. 400$ current RX cards actually will be better anyway. because I forgot to include the cost of a PSU and computer you'd need regardless for a ASIC miner.

Plus if eth falls in the shitter you can still mine other shit with the AMD cards while the asic will only do ethash.

>> No.7593400

>>7593359
plus you can get these cards now vs waiting several months where difficulty will be higher and reward lower. Wait 1 month literally and AMD will have provided some cheaper VEGAs and RXs.
