If they are swapping out S7's for S9's then why aren't there shitloads of S7's for sale?
Is there a reason why bitmain has stopped selling s9 miners? Its been out of stock for some time; is there a new model coming out?
Or is it something else?
Well they are busy swapping out s9 for s7 in their cloud ops.
Remember when you have a
.1 watt miner and your competitors have .25 watt you don't need to sell any gear you can simply mine.
Punch in what a .1 watt 12th miner earns with 5 cent power .
And also remember they build it for say 700 maybe 500. They simply have almost zero need to sell any gear.
Now if Avalon sells its model 7 maybe bitmaintech will sell more s9s
