It took a day after ETN forked, but DERO is now up to ~1400MH/s - much as I predicted - and an X3 went from making $20US/day to $10US/day overnight. Oh, theoretically you can still make $19US/day mining Bitsum, but good luck dumping those coins for anywhere close to what the calculators predict.

And FYI, I don't have a problem with ASICs - I'd actually prefer to use them - but what I do have a problem with are the shady practices of the ASIC manufacturers, who, btw, are conveniently shielded from US law by all being located in China or former Soviet-bloc countries. It is no secret that ASIC miner manufacturers do "extensive pre-release testing" of their products and only deign to sell them to the public either when they have been found out or they've developed an even faster version. I mean, did you not notice that Baikal first released a 20kH/s miner, only to follow it up a few weeks later with a 40kH/s version and, finally, a 240kH/s model? Frankly, it's *you* that should be pissed right now, especially if you paid $12k US for the X3.

To paraphrase South Park, "dey terk yur coinz."


Nobody ended up paying $12K for an X3, they were refunded. We've had this conversation.
