I saw something interesting — Bitcoin mining company GoMining and luxury watch brand Jacob & Co. collaborated on a limited edition. It sounds a bit outrageous, but upon closer thought, it actually fits the current Web3 ecosystem's trend of "mix and match."
This limited edition Epic X GoMining set is priced at $40,000, with only 100 units worldwide. It includes two parts: one is Jacob & Co.'s manually linked luxury watch (which itself is a status symbol), and the other is a "digital mining machine" certificate, corresponding to 1000TH of computing power.
In other words, buyers of this set get both a high-end watch and real mining rights. This "physical asset + digital asset" bundling approach has been rare in the Web3 ecosystem over the past few years.
From a business perspective, this collaboration meets the intersection of two needs: on one hand, high-net-worth individuals' demand for luxury goods and status recognition has never diminished; on the other hand, the stable returns from Bitcoin mining are attractive to those pursuing long-term asset allocation. Using limited editions and high prices to create a sense of scarcity is a classic tactic.
Honestly, this seems more like a marketing creative show rather than a genuine innovation that changes the mining ecosystem. But if it can attract traditional high-end consumers' understanding of Bitcoin and the computing power economy, it also indirectly promotes industry awareness beyond its usual circle.

Haha, come on, doing this again—spending 40,000 dollars on a watch and mining at the same time, and seeing if it pays off in three years.
Honestly, this idea is pretty clever. I just want to know if those 100 coins have been sold. It feels more like a new way to cut the leeks.
But seriously, tying physical assets with digital assets does fit the cycle theory well. History always repeats itself. Breaking the circle? Just breaking it. We’ve always been breaking it.
As long as it can get these wealthy people to spend money to buy into the Bitcoin ecosystem, whether it’s a watch or mining rigs, when the hype catches on and Bitcoin surges, we all win. Isn’t this what Web3 should look like?

Buying a watch for 40,000 dollars and mining at the same time? Isn't this just an IQ tax for the wealthy? Haha

Breaking the circle is breaking the circle, but spending $40,000 to buy a watch and get 1000TH of computing power? That's really just a new way to cut leeks. I think this is just using luxury goods as a cover.

Buying a watch for 40,000 dollars and mining at the same time— isn't this just a tailored way to trap retail investors? I've seen plenty of limited edition of 100 pieces hype. To put it simply, it's the final effort by the big players to accumulate before pumping the price. The technical indicators are already very clear.
