Title: Altcoin ASIC spotted?
Post by: JimmyJoe on February 19, 2014, 12:06:18 PM
Hi fellow miners,

I have stumbled upon something weird and interesting. I mine with a profit switching pool. Look at our top user`s hashrate:

As far as I know ASICs that are about to come out this year are capable of not more than 30 MH/s. This guy needs to operate 166 of such machines...

I think bad times are coming for us small miners  :(

Could it be a sh*t load of the ones being sold now but just in "testing phase"?
