BITMAIN JOINS THE CRYPTONIGHT ASIC MINERS FESTIVAL, NEXT TO BAIKAL AND HALONG MINING COMING SOON!
Good evening friends of Steemit.
Recently the Chinese company Bitmain announced the launch of its first batch of ASIC miners working with the CryptoNight / CryptoNite algorithm, called Antminer X3. In their specifications they claim that it reaches 220 KH / s of processing with 550W of electrical consumption.
The launch of the Antminer X3 has been announced the same week that the company Baikal revealed its Giant-N model of 20 KH / s of processing with 60W of electrical consumption. In February, Monero's developer team, the most recognized CryptoNight crypto-active, announced that it will fork its network every 6 months to avoid using ASIC equipment on its platform.
