Looking at the recent market surge of ZEC, the enthusiasm of newcomers entering the scene is really high. But I have to be honest, after mixing in this circle for so many years, I've seen this kind of routine too many times. Basically, it's old wine in new bottles; once the hype passes, the true nature is revealed.



Recently, I saw someone hyping the 2020 Z15 equipment, claiming it produces nearly 200 yuan per day, and now it's being driven up to 30,000 yuan per unit. I couldn't help but laugh at this logic. Packaging outdated hardware as a "treasure," touting it as a "money printer," and then using this news to stimulate the coin price to rise, leaving a bunch of bagholders at the top. This trick has played out over and over again in the crypto circle.

Looking back at history, it's clear. The 2020 M30 series was once hyped to absurd prices, but when the market turned, these machines became scrap sold by weight. The current Z15 is following the same path—eight-year-old hardware, with hash power efficiency long gone. Serious scrap yards only buy stuff for around 30 yuan, yet now it's being hyped to 30,000. How big does this bubble have to be to support that?

Someone calculated that the new ZEC mining machine costs 300,000 yuan per unit, with a daily output of 3,000 yuan. If this number is accurate, the pattern of market fluctuations is obvious—how many days can such ultra-high output last? You all saw the madness of KAS in 2022; the disastrous outcome is right in front of us. Enter early, and be cautious when taking over positions—these words are not empty talk.
ZEC-3.28%
KAS-2.78%

actually, let me break this down mathematically—the roi calculation here is fundamentally flawed. if we're talking about a machine generating $3k daily, the payback period on a $300k investment is literally just 100 days, ceteris paribus. but here's the thing: protocol emissions don't work that way. you can't extrapolate short-term yields into perpetuity when difficulty adjusts asymptotically.

Girl, that Z15 routine is exactly the same as the M30 back in the day. This time, you really haven't learned your lesson. --- A broken machine worth 30,000, and you still think 30 bucks is expensive. This bubble won't last a few days. --- You're doing it again, huh? Haven't learned enough from the KAS lesson? --- Daily output of 3000? The market turns and it becomes scrap metal. Don't ask me how I know. --- It's always the same routine: hype up the asset, dump the market, and the bagholders cry. Why bother? --- Do newbies really dare to believe? I’m sweating for you guys. --- Eight-year-old hardware still can be pumped to 30,000? How weird is that? --- No matter how beautiful the calculations, it’s all useless. The market speaks. --- What’s wrong with the bagholders’ eyes? Falling for such an obvious routine. --- I find this ZEC wave annoying. It’s just a repeat of the tricks from back then.

Damn, Z15's hype is really incredible. A junk worth 30 yuan can be blown up to 30,000, and this heart is truly big. To put it simply, it's still that same trick; the lesson from KAS hasn't been learned yet. Don't be fooled by a daily output of 3000; you'll end up taking the loss sooner or later. Mining stock scams are too many; I don't dare to touch them now. Historical cycles, brother, every time it's new people losing everything. According to this logic, the machines themselves should depreciate, yet people are still speculating on them? Crazy. Let's wait and see; there's no rush to make this little money. People still praise the junk from 2020, which is quite something. This time, the most likely to be the bagholder at the top is definitely the latecomers. I think ZEC is better to stay calm.

Coming back with the same story? Z15 was hyped from $30 trash to $30,000, and this bubble will burst sooner or later.
