The affluence of cryptocurrency mining machines on additional markets can be apparent on marketplaces like Alibaba, JD.com, Tmall, and added in China. An affluence of mining rig surplus can additionally be apparent on marketplaces committed to the western hemisphere as well.

An balance of application-specific chip circuits (ASICs) and cartoon processing units (GPUs) can be begin on Ebay and Amazon. Prices are abundant lower per assemblage and per hashrate, in allegory to ASIC and GPU prices 60 canicule ago. Since the contempo crackdown in China, second-market banal has acicular a abundant accord added and prices per apparatus are abundant lower.
