Prices have dropped fast on these...down to $100 a unit. Not nearly the $14.40 price they should be sold at to compete with the Titan but getting there.

Very true, which is why I'm not buying any more mining equipment. When the big script asics come online, even gridseed blades won't be doing you much good. With the difficulty increases you'll be lucky to make decent profit after ROI, if you even get there.

Yea, I kinda regret ordering when they were ~$260/each but all in all it's been fun and has kept me busy. ROI will be very tight if ever on them. I know I didn't make up the difference in the extra month or so I had them before they came down to the $95 range.

I wont be getting the G-Blade units....might get some more Infinity USB's (what gridseed calls their 5 chip miners now) if the price gets to about $60/each just to fill out my custom case Smiley    ....and maybe cost average down the ROI a bit....but I'm guessing that unless we get really lucky or do some creative altcoin mining it will be tough.

If you don't convert to USD and the price jumps you can make ROI and them some. But if you're into mining to make dollars you're doing it wrong anyway. Why would you want to trade a deflationary asset for an inflationary one...
