Hi cryptomaniacs,

Since two days ago Z9 Mini is -Sold Out- so...

What's the next step of Bitmain?

Release a new batch of 'Z9 Mini' cheapest than 850$?

New batch with the same price?

Not sale 'Z9 mini' again?

Will be interesting to know what they did before with similar ASIC machines...

Thanks for your time !!

my guess is that this will be the end of the Z9 mini and only the Z9 will remain with the remainder inventory plus price adjustments for next batches.

For sale? Probably. For use? It's the same hashrate/power consumption per chip, the mini will continue to be profitable at the same ratio as the bigger guys, just less on a day to day level.

Also Z9 mini is realistically the only ASIC miner for mining at home without any special investment in electrical installation (even if you a have a few of them). The noise level is border line tolerable and it is using not much more power than GTX1080Ti (with the price of second batch with coupon, comparable as well)
