The creators of antminers have came out with a new miner that I can not believe I missed news on.
The specs on the A3:
"We are proud and happy to announce the release of the new Antminer A3, a new Antminer model for mining cryptocurrencies based on the hashing algorithm Blake(2b).
The Antminer A3 delivers a hashrate of 815GH/s (±5%) with a power efficiency of 1.56mJ/MH (+7%).
It is ready to order now and will ship within 10 working days from the time when the order payment is completely received by Bitmain."

Currently Bitmain is selling the available units in groups every hour to avoid someone making a batch order to create their own farms. The demand of it is insane. The first batch sold out in minutes and rumor has it there has been over 11k units to date. If Bitmain was a traded stock the profits it would make would be insane. Heck even a token that would share Bitmain earnings to holders would be high in demand.
The Antminer A3 is designed specifically for blake (2b) algorithm. This is Siacoin's algo.
Snapshot is presently posted from https://whattomine.com
It will be five days before the first batch of miners are running so last memories of these numbers before the hashing rates moon. Developers of Siacoin are rumored to plan on adjusting the mining algorithm to stop this influx of new hashing. Heck if mining on Nicehash is possible it would also be huge demand for the miner.
So at 815 GH/s hashing and current price of Siacoin it will be approximately $430 earnings per a day. Of course to those who were familiar with Dash the ROI dramatically raised to the point earnings went down to dollars a day. If nothing changes and people run these new miners I would believe the earnings will drop dramatically too. To those who got an order through for one of these miners congrats! ROI is less than 10 days!
Thanks for reading.
