looks nice on first glance, but still >12 Month ROI, so the RISK is very high that you not even make your Invest back.

Hey Jadefalke,

I agree with you on the >12 being less than ideal. Unfortunately most of the new miners on the market have multi-year ROIs right now. There are benefits however for purchasing miners while they are less expensive now rather than later.

If someone were to do their own facility and had access to low cost power (assuming today's market payout rates with a constant diff.):

Bitmain S15 @ $1,020 @ $0.05/kWh = 1.2 years (not including shipping and taxes, insurance, security, internet, cost of facility, operational, exhaust fan power, etc.)
INNOSILICON Terminator3-43T @ $2,279 @ $0.05/kWh = 1.6 years (not including shipping and taxes, insurance, security, internet, cost of facility, operational, exhaust fan power, etc.)
Bitmain DR5 @ $1,282 @ $0.05/kWh = ~1 year (not including shipping and taxes, insurance, security, internet, cost of facility, operational, exhaust fan power, etc.)
ASICminer Zeon @ $9,500 @ $0.05/kWh = 1.6 years (not including shipping and taxes, insurance, security, internet, cost of facility, operational, exhaust fan power, etc.)

When compared to this package offered:

SPx36 12-Month Package @ $86,960 = ~ 1 year (includes everything + is hosted and managed for you)

The Sia miners are an exception, however it was only because of the manipulation by the hard fork. Their difficulty should be increasing by 300% within a couple months with their new miners coming out in March.

One of the benefits of the SPx36 is that they are on a small limited production each month as they are not large scale manufactured like Bitmain miners. Because they are using the latest chips for their miners, they have created a barrier to entry for other manufacturers to enter X11 (or at least have the incentive to). In my opinion I believe that when crypto prices begin to increase, these miners will be the most difficult to grab since they have no other competition on the X11. In other words, these might have the lowest depreciation risk, and yield the most per $ in the future.

Foremost we are a hosting and colocation service. If the SPx36 is not a miner you are interested in, we are happy to host any miner you have. Please let us know how we can earn your business!
