Title: Any affordable X11 ASIC Miners?
Post by: MoneypakTrader.com on June 10, 2016, 06:52:19 PM
Hi,

I am looking for an affordable X11 ASIC miner just to get started mining some DASH. I have found out that Dash is becoming very popular these days, so I think that I might give it a shot.

No matter if the X11 miner is not profitable at all, I would prefer at least a basic miner just for fun and education. If no ASIC could meet these requirements, then I would like to know the most affordable GPU for this task.  :)

I would greatly appreciate your recommendations on this and will look forward to your replies.  :D

There's a USB-based ASIC out there for X11, spacing the maker (Pinoli or something like that?) - it's the only thing close to inexpensive available at this time.

 ASIC for X11 are a NEW development, none of them have been available more than a very few months, so the prices on them are still "new user adoption" inflated.

Thanks for letting me know about this. I didn't knew that they were new on the market but I'm going to make some research about the miner that you've previously recommended me. It been quite some time since I have been away from crypto currencies, so I'll have to get up to date with the latest stuff in it. For the meantime, I'll just setup some masternodes for Dash at home. I should be able to get some good amount of Dash as rewards for setting up these nodes.  :D

If you are really want to mine X11 coins, take a look at Baikal ASIC miners. I believe their price should get lower in next 1-2 monthes.
