Where Can I Buy a Whatsminer M20S, M30, M30s++ or M32?

Whatsminer machines are some of the most popular ASICs circulating on the resale market today.

You can buy them direct from MicroBT, but they are often sold-out. There are also handful of brokers you can choose from that typically have these machines in stock (availability depends on supply and demand at any given time, obviously).

One of the most popular resellers for hobbyist and professional miners is Kaboomracks. They update their telegram channel daily with new sales and Whatsminers are frequently featured. Another option for buying Whatsminer ASICs is Crypto Mining Tools. The ASIC broker sells MicroBT gear alongside other popular models, though it often doesn’t have as many machines in stock for retail purchases as its competitor Kaboomracks.
