I have a couple questions if anyone can chime in?

1) Are the Baikal X10s still profitable And do you see them dying out this year?

2) Are they loud like bitmains?

3) Anyone ever purchased from this site https://asicminermarket.com/all-products/ ?

What is strange Baikal advised me via email that they no longer take personal wire transfers for purchase. It MUST be a business wire transfer from an active business. To me that is just strange imo. I'm not in business as most of us aren't.

Thanks everyone

1. All asic profitability will "die out" .. the x10 is still the most profitable asic on the market at the price range. Because it is is multi-algo capable it has much larger pool of coins to mine .. the power consumption is 1/3 of a BTC miner
2. Nope. Not sure if others commenting on this realize you can run the x10 at 50 to 70% fan rate with no problem and drastically reduced noise.. the fans on asics are what makes them so loud. Most miners have 2. X10 has 1 and can run at reduced speed because of lower power needs for operation
3. Nope but it's overpriced anyway

New one on the wires, but could be policy change from fraud or who knows.. or maybe some govt policy they have to deal with.. set up a dba, get a license for $10, open account in business name. Done.

regarding 2. --> Depending on which Algo you are mining, you can reduce up to 20% fan power. I exchanged the original fan with Enermax Storm and its really not loud anymore.

regarding 3. --> I bought from asicminermarket once. Overpriced but legit. They deliver pretty fast.
