I've seen some top miner's homepage on flypool.org,like this one: http://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1WKexnwAjn1eke9y4WkKqgv4om7UYrv5eH i was curious that how could one rig have a hashrate like 1.4MH/s, this is zcash we're talking about, think a nvidia 1060 can only do 300h/s. Is this one an ASIC miner ? Could someone possibly invent an ASIC machine? |

My GTX 1070 does close to 500 h/s. I don't think ASIC miners would work, since the Equihash algorithm requires a lot of memory.

ZEC developer said if there is ASIC, it will change PoW. |

Could it be that he runs 10000 graphic cards farm, all with same worker name?

Yeah, he uses some kind of proxy to connect all the miners to the same worker. |

Buying hashrate from Nicehash is the most likely reason

Worker name "NH" and highly variable hashrate. We have a winner! |
I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

Bingo you nailed it, pretty simple. there's another problem, if all 10000 cards with the same name, if some cards are down, how can you tell which one is down, after all you have to restart them to go to work again |

I think this EXACT question pops up here about every three weeks it seems. I hope it's only because the last fifty threads asking it have worked their way so far down the forum the OP couldn't find them in searching to answer the question.  |

As Bitmain tends to "secretly" mine for a while on ASICs before releasing to the public for sale, it's quite possible it could be an ASIC miner.
