Start with the physical miner record.
A hosted miner purchase should not be an abstract hashrate promise. Before checkout, the buyer should see the model, available unit count, provider of record, commercial terms, and lifecycle state. The specific serial number is assigned and shown at purchase.
- Specific miner model and nominal hashrate
- Provider identity and jurisdiction
- Listing price, hosting price, and storage terms
Treat delivery data as the operating record.
Short screenshots do not show maintenance, curtailment, repairs, or pool routing changes over time. A useful marketplace publishes delivery rows that connect the hosted ASIC to measured hashrate.
- Daily delivered hashrate versus nameplate
- Provider-level delivery report
- Shared record for clients, providers, and support
Know what happens after purchase.
Hosted mining risk continues after checkout. Buyers need clear billing, support, pool routing, pause/resume, and a resale path rather than a one-time invoice and a private chat thread.
