just look at the charts.
zcash price goes down.
difficulty goes up.
its not asics, right.
Did they make this announcement public on somewhere?
who? about what? …
look, friend
1 - you are putting BTC in…
2 - you may as well compare charts XRP/ZEC…
3 - my point is - that right now we see as ZEC price goes down while DIFF goes 10m+
4 - last time diff were over 10m - when zec went from 180usd to 350usd, because of zec listed on gemini.
5 - i understood, you bought asic, fine.
6 - please do not reply to my messages at least.
1.) of course
2.) NO, ZEC doesn’t follow XRP but BTC, hence the BTC chart.
ASIC owners will be fine if diff goes to 20M while zec price 150usd.
still 250usd/month with z9 mini.

That not at all what I was posting. Im posting the shocking email I got seeing they slashed the price on the ASIC batch they havent even shipped yet. If anything, I’m showing just how they do business.
that’s fine, but you posted very long text with a lot of Bitmain links…
and it would be super fine, if it wasn’t here already, just a few posts up.
I didnt see it sorry. And Ill remove the links!
He copied the email that he received in its entirety and posted it here in the forum so that everyone could see that if you purchased a Z9 mini from the first batch you’re going to get double. No redaction, a complete and accurate share…It’s a sad day that when someone shares information that actually relates to this thread topic someone has to complain.

Omg, how wrong you are…
you can not understand that this information been posted on this thread 6 hours ago by boxalex.
same email was copied here.
any more questions?
Please see your quote above as my response to you… what @boxalex posted was an edited version of the email that was sent out, what @Kahooli sent out was a complete copy and unedited version of the email that bitmain sent out

and first batch will not be doubled.
just coupons.
doubled will be second batch.
sad day? for me sad - is that this information been posted twice, and you still do not read carefully enough.
bitmain is very scared, at least some good news 
nec is correct. First batch gets 2 $250 coupons, supposedly same ship date as previously advertised.
The first 77 were probably the engineering samples.
The second batch orders get a 2 for one deal bringing their cost to $760.
They had also previously sent an email saying that all recent orders would receive a $100 coupon per miner, which I just got credited
So. I have three coupons and no miner yet. Cooooool. Lol.
I knew it was a gamble. The dice are still tumbling on whether I’ll make back my money before it’s just an internet of things space heater 
Meanwhile… BTG announced they’re tweaking Equihash to 144,5, which needs 2.5G of memory to run. That’ll be interesting to watch.
