Oh ok, that's a looong time to wait!
Lots of companies were busted for internally using the mining equipment until they had the next generation ready for internal testing... essentially you're buying the old version.... that was years ago but it was a massive scandal.
Fuck it. I just threw 0.988 BTC at it.
Hope that shit come with install instructions
Naw bruh....ships march 2018??...mutha fughas wont be holding my money intrest free for damn near a year..Fuck it. I just threw 0.988 BTC at it.
Hope that shit come with install instructions
That's cool. I won't miss it. I lost more in two hours chasing coins. I can make that little 0.98BTC back by Saturday.
It's like things are repeating themselves from 13/14. Same run on graphic cards too.
my boy said he went to Fry's to get some graphic cards and they were all sold out.. they said 30-40 people had already been in that dude to set up mining rigs.it was early too

Yes, they said minimal set up needed. You probably just need to hook up a monitor and keyboard initially to set it up and plug in your Sia wallet address and let her rip. That processor chip is equal to 100 GPU chips

Celebrity Investor Mark Cuban is About to Participate in His First ICO
Jun 29, 2017 at 10:01 by Michael del Castillo
Mark Cuban doesn't seem worried that initial coin offerings (ICOs) might someday render investors redundant.
In fact, the "Shark Tank" VC is so open to the nascent blockchain use case, that he's joining the ranks of traditional investors who support the idea that their own portfolio companies could raise additional capital by selling cryptographic tokens.
Revealed exclusively to CoinDesk, Cuban portfolio company Unikrn is currently circulating an update to its investors about a forthcoming ICO intended to supplement the venture capital it has already raised.
Unlike other more tentative investors, which have shown a reluctance to participate directly in the actual token sales, Cuban said he will participate in the token sale – a first for the owner of the Dallas Mavericks NBA franchise.
Cuban described the thinking, telling CoinDesk:
"High risk. High reward."
Natural progression
Founded in 2014, the Seattle-based Unikrn is an e-sports betting platform that has already raised $10m from investors also including Ashton Kutcher, Elisabeth Murdoch and 500 Startups, to let anyone in the world bet with "Unikoins," the firm's own digital token, or with fiat money in Australia and the UK.
In the year since the token launched, Unikrn has transacted over 250 million unikoins, according to the company's founder, Rahul Sood, who tells CoinDesk the plan was always to switch the coin to a more secure cryptographic token.
The 1 billion new tokens – called UnikoinGold – that will eventually be minted will adhere to the ERC-20 ethereum standard and, based on a timeline in the investor update, the formal marketing of the token will begin no later than August. A launch of the live coin integrated with an underlying infrastructure and wallets is set to go live on 31st August.
An excerpt from the investor update revealed a breakdown of how shares of the tokens are expected to break down:
Crypto-cash infusion
In addition to demonstrating the increasingly supportive stance taken by traditional investors toward ICOs, this latest development shows another trend of venture backed, non-cryptocurrency startups converting company tokens into cryptocurrency that can be exchanged more widely into ether and ultimately fiat.
Earlier this month, social network Kik announced its own ICO, a development that comes even though it has raised $120m in traditional venture capital.
But Cuban thinks tokens that would be used to fuel online gambling are especially well suited to be converted to cryptocurrency.
"Growth in gambling is going to accelerate," Cuban told CoinDesk. "Unikrn is better positioned than any other company to leverage that growth not only with their core business , but with blockchain."
He concluded:
"The ICO opportunity is a perfect fit."

was just reading about this in the wagerr slack...hopefully this pushes them to make good on their timetable if they're serious...hope it brings more hype to the project too if ppl start to realize there's a market for cryptocurrency gambling w/ wagerr setting to be the first w/ sports
I think you're missing my point, his big name is going to bring awareness and a lot of free press. He's one of a few big names behind this. Ashton Kutcher was an early one too. When you do a quick Google search you'll see what I mean.
was just reading about kutcher also visiting STORJ out in atlanta and chopping it up w/ them a bit...not an endorsement on his end tho...read that he's just looking @ different startups...he's probably hoping to pull a jessica alba...that's why it's good to look @ these companies/projects and try to make a few long term investments...once the average joe gets into this even more $$$ is gonna be flooding into this shit...great op for traders too as more ppl will be blindly throwing their $$$ into this...and those who are seasoned traders will be able to take advantage of that
lol ya man...just got amped and wrote a comment about that...shit is very exciting
didn't know that...here's the story I came across
http://atlantatechvillage.com/buzz/2017/06/07/ashton-kutcher-takes-atlanta-startups/
ironically the price of STORJ went down after they piggybacked off his name

shiiiiiiit!
I skimmed thru the article I posted...but just read the whole thing and the ones you just posted...dude is def doing the damn thing
Peace fam.Ok so I ordered the Obelisk Custom Asic Miner for $2499 to Mine SC (BTC Only 0.991)
Conservative Estimates have you getting 60k of SC per Month = $1,000
Here is the Info for whoever is interested. FYI - The sale only goes on for 7 Days (Started Today)
This is a WIN WIN and can take your POCKETS to a whole new level if Sia ever goes up substantially

This is what a Miner looks like
Good looking out on this one. I think I may order mine as well. Quick question though...
Do you believe it is worth dropping the $2500 on this, or dropping the same amount on a rig that will mine ethereum or zcash or something like that? I could definitely use that monthly recoup as well as stocking up on SC alone.
I'm just going to leave my shit on my dashboard until it opens up on an exchange
Me too, shit is too confusing. I ended up loosing 2 ETHs by downloading an ETH wallet to transfer ETH to in order to participate in these ICOs. Can't remember which one, but anyway the ICO was over before I finished the process of downloading the wallet.
I got 11k extra...so if there's a decent market for it early on or it gets pumped I will sell some of them...truth be told tho WAVES DEX doesn't move much volume...more than anything else I just want to add it to blockfolio so my numbers are accurate
How much does it cost in electricity per monthOk so I ordered the Obelisk Custom Asic Miner for $2499 to Mine SC (BTC Only 0.991)

About $30 bucks
You cannot earn $1000 per month with those coins with one Miner. At this point it is not profitable mining ETH when you factor electricity. SC is low low so not only will you make 60k in SC a month but if the coin goes up you'll make a killing on the back end too. Simply put the ROI is insane
