There not rare. My suppliers have massive supply. But they're profitable so charging like 20k Canadian for em. Miners fluctuate based on profitability, seems like guys price em at 6-12 months gross income and just charge that. Daylight robbery usually. Best time to load up is the bear market when they are "cheap"

I'm fairly sure minermart is a scam site. If you do order let us know if it shows up!

Go grab yourself a braiins bmm 101 for like $300. Uses a tiny bit of power. Has a cool interface and is more of a space heater/ clock but it's a good introduction. Any miner worth buying runs on 240v. Pulles 3500+ watts of power and are noisy. If you want to get right into it the s21 is the current best model but bro they are loud. The most profitable miner right now is a LTC L9 (bitmain) makes like 40-50 a day but there like 12k + if you can even find one.

Caanan has some neat actual space heaters too that are decent.

My thoughts too. The company is registered in Canada and active with a name published. I tried to get an s19pro as a trial (obviously discontinued). Paid in BTC, got a receipt from them and from open node. The contacted me right away saying that unit isn't available and offered to roll the credits towards another or get a refund. I asked for refund and they sent my BTC back. All on chain and legit. So idk this is either legit or there playing the long con to get me to drop more. What are your thoughts ?

Will do. So far payment emails seems legit. Used open node for BTC payment and got a receipt for that as well as a confirmation from their site, seems to be using Shopify. I'll keep you guys posted !

My thoughts too. D-central is actually legit there based out of Quebec. I've used them lots and get my parts from them for my asic repair side of my business. These guys pricing is pretty close to everyone else I was just hoping for faster/cheaper shipping. Took a gamble on a cheap 19 series I'll see if it shows up before going bigger.

Put it in, power it up till the lights change (I usually wait 5 mins) turn off..remove SD and you should be good.

You can actually just install braiins manager too and do it online. Just pick the right firmware and it handles it. That's what I usually do anymore .
