If you bought the S9 in the first batch, you can still make some profits now.
Batch1 S9 14TH/s price was about 4 BTC. Where do you see profit ?
If you paid cash to buy the btc the cost was about 2500 usd
I made lots of usd on my batch 1 gear.
I don't buy coin other then to buy gear.
and if you purchased the coin and held it unit last december 2017 it was 80k vs 2.5 k
my profit was less then that but still profit.
