Title: So what do people predict is next for SHA256 mining?
Post by: couture on June 23, 2017, 02:52:14 PM
Are BitMain about to release a new antminer after dumping all their S9's?

Will a new rival company with newer chip tech enter the market?

Will be endure an ice age like plateau in mining hash per watt for some period of time now?

Ponderings welcome :)

was already discussed, and until intel release their new 10nm cpu you will not find any new asic, so until next year or later, the antminers will remain in top position

you can still do good in profit now with this current generation of asic, the value allow a great margin on profit, for your ROI time

for now at best we could hope for a s9+ maybe? a lite version
