A newbie account contacted me about getting 1,000 miners plus from someone BESIDES Bitmain...which I thought MAYBE proved
they were NOT precisely a scam, or at least approaching me from a different direction.....for phishing..
unclear on the flavor of ASIC they were pursuing....sha-256/scrypt-pow or x11 (which I told them to stay away from IMHO)
Anyway, essentially, I know of NONE in the way of ASIC miners, that I could get 1,000 units from with any hope ...Baikal is too high priced
and would blow up on the attempt of 1,000 orders....pandaminer same, pinidea nope....prices would kill even if they could do the volume IMHO
Unless I'm mistaken, assuming legitness of them from brief pm ..they are SOL..there is NO one anymore with the capacity I know of
to get them 1,000 units of anything (which again I think is likely fishing me...but what the heck) ..even if it is by around April 2018.
anyway, what struck me was the number 1,000 and how completely Bitmain owns ASIC mining now .......if they are legit again they are SOL
and I kinda (nicely) informed them of such
Anyway, an interesting thought on HOW such a thing could even be done, w/o Bitmain units now...
my conclusion was NOPE!
