ive got a couple more coupons that will be expiring in two weeks. Would getting a couple of the z9 minis be a worth the gamble? which coins are sure to fork and which ones can still be mined by the z9 in 3 months?
Too risky, IMO ASIC's are only good if you get the first batch, afterwards risk greatly increases. But as in everything #DYOR. ~ Do your own research.
I would have to second this. If you don't get first batch especially on smaller algos your chance of ROI becomes a huge gamble. I think there is too much hash rate coming online now so the pressure is climbing on the coin devs to make the call about forking. Regardless diff is climbing and profits will get slim fast. This is why first batch is usually the best gamble IMHO. I would bank your earnings from your Z9's and wait for the next new batch of miners. There are a lot of rumblings about new scrypt and sha256 miners about to be released so have some powder dry for the next round.
