Title: Halong Mining ASIC Post by: gentlemand on November 22, 2017, 05:51:01 PM Core developer BTCDrak is one of the people behind Halong Mining. Their first product will be a new ASIC launched next year.
It's been endorsed and viewed working by Adam Back and the CEO of Slushpool. Thoughts on its effects? https://halongmining.com https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/bitcoin-developer-about-take-mining-hardware-industry/ https://twitter.com/adam3us/status/933348194062360577 Title: Re: Halong Mining ASIC Post by: HagssFIN on November 22, 2017, 05:52:06 PM I have proposed them with doing a thorough review here at the forum. :)

We are taking preorders for the next generation miner for delivery starting in March 2018. https://halongmining.com (http://archive.is/Up0F5)But once you check Terms of sale: Quote Delivery times are estimates. Manufacturing has certain margins of error which are outside of our control. We will keep you informed about projected delivery dates. Orders will be fulfilled on a first come first served basis as equipment comes off the production line. https://halongmining.com/terms-of-sale/ (http://archive.is/vuQJY)We'll see. Groundhog Day.

Looking at the specs its not a big leap away from the antminer s9 but still, its has a higher hashrate, and supposedly cooler and more power efficient. Based on advertised specs tho, isn't the antminer still more power efficient? Summary specs for easy reference: Dragonmint Miner Hashrate: 16 T Consumption: ~1450 watts Efficiency: ~90 watts per 1 TH Antminer S9 Hashrate: 14 T Consumption: ~1200 watts Efficiency: ~85 watts per 1 TH Title: Re: Halong Mining ASIC Post by: NotFuzzyWarm on November 23, 2017, 02:29:29 AM Core developer BTCDrak is one of the people behind Halong Mining.
