Title: Dash Hashrate just spiked ~5x in 2 weeks
Post by: John Titor on October 01, 2017, 08:59:27 PM
This makes Dash the 3rd most mined crypto currency after BCH and BTC, and it now suddenly has more hash power than Ethereum
-see here https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/hashrate-eth-dash.html

Surprisingly little news on this, what is happening with Dash and what is the reason for this mining surge?

Maybe Evan started mining again--has the payout gone up 50x?

You can't really compare different hashing algos or the difficulty of coins with different algos as they have completely different speeds. And Ethereum doesn't have public ASICs.

But Dash has a bunch of ASICs which changes everything:

Bitmain D3 15Gh/s (3500-35000 pieces)
PinIdea 17Gh/s
iBelink 10.8Gh/s
Baikal 0.6Gh/s
Innosilicon 30.2Gh/s
