Earlier, journalists assumed that the hashrate of the Antminer E9 could be about 1500 MH/s.

Hopefully this will improve GPU availability.
Title: Re: AntMiner E9 (Ethash) series announced Post by: Refrumatrix on April 19, 2021, 05:09:43 PM Why all this release of a new Asic miner when EIP1559 is already coming? Also is eth moving out of PoW algorithm a joke? Because if that's a fact these people or company rather won't be building new Asic miner

Nah Proof of Stake (POS) removes the need for miners.....probably want to read up on that. And please link the RandomX Asic you refer too above? |
