The latest and greatest SIA Blake2b-Sia ASIC miner from Obelisk Tech, the SC1 Slim is half the size and twice as powerful as the original SC1 miner!

Timestamps in video description on YouTube

Obelisk Tech was founded by several members of the Siacoin development team. Obelisk set out to develop ASIC miners for their own coin, Siacoin along with Decred (and eventually this year also opened a pre-order for a GRIN asic miner). Bitmain and Innosilicon beat Obelisk Tech to market with their Antminer A3 and Innosilicon S11 SIA miners. When Obelisk Tech had their SC1 SIA miners ready for release, they implemented a hardfork with the Siacoin SC blockchain and invalidated all of the other ASIC miners currently on it. In turn their less powerful machines which previously (now) had no chance of ever breaking even became insanely profitable mining rigs. We reviewed the Obelisk SC1 after the fork when the miner was making $90 dollars a day -- IN A BEAR MARKET! However as they continued to release the rest of their SC1 miners and the Siacoin price continued to decline, so did the mining profitability. Today I am here to review their latest and final (at least for awhile) Siacoin ASIC miner -- the Obelisk Tech SC1 Slim which is twice as small (basically) and twice as powerful as their original Obelisk SC1!

Hah.
So the original Obelisk SC1 that made a hundred bucks a day after the fork is essentially making $5 a day today?... and the slim version $10? If that's not another argument not to pay outrageous prices for ASICs I don't know what it is. At $100/day you could think about it. For $10, it's not even worth the megabytes of cloud storage necessary for that video! Grin
