Title: Can I mine XMR with Inosilicon A8??
Post by: lorrentclay on May 22, 2018, 07:30:08 AM
Hello!

I have a lot of questions about asics.
As:
- Does Baikal X10 have any algorithms that the manufacturer has not released yet?
-Inno A8 + can exploit XMR and other coin?
Has anyone tried research on this issue?

Basically asic is like a computer. So why can the computer exploit a lot of coin different and asic is not?
After owning the A8 I continue to buy the A8 + and find that they are not much different, but the performance is different?I tried using putty to access the system but when installing other algorithms on A8 there is no way conect controller to card bard algorith.

I want to post so we can discuss, because I have heard rumors of being able to exploit XMR with the Ino A8 in China.At the Asic store in China http://asicsminer.com , I bought a lot of their products and we often chat, sellers also confirmed that rumor.But they can not verify the information yet

Asics are specialized chip that can do one or two things but very efficiently.
It's physically wired for that.
You cant reprogram them.
A CPU is wired with a shitload of various instruction and can do anything but at the cost of efficiency
A FPGA is not wired and can do anything a little less efficiently than ASIC and are hell to program if you are not in that field.

Please do a minimum of research and do not buy product you do not understand

You can't mine XMR with it.
XMR forked to algo CryptonightV7 and your ASIC only can mine Cryptonight.
