  Is Blakecoin dead ? 

[AlexxB]

Ok so to my understanding you can mine with Baikal Giant B the following:

Blake256R14 --- Decred (DCR)
Blake256R8 --- Vcash (XVC) - no profit/no one mines this? or I'm I too dumb
Blake2B --- Sia (SC)
Lbry --- LBRY (LBC) - THE ONE AND ONLY!
Pascal --- Pascalcoin (PASC)

Are these info correct?

BlakeCoin + Child Chains are alive and Merge Mining beautifully

Are these info correct?

We do not know which Blake256R8 coins this will support.
I would assume it would be supporting the BlakeCoin Blake256R8 as Vcash is usually referred to as Blake256R8VNL or maybe there would be an option for both

Blakecoin seems to be alive and kicking.

I looked into Blakecoin and see it uses blake256, bit i couldn't find if it is Blake256R8.
I will update the listing for now. Once the miner is out we will know for sure which coins can be mined.
If it works I will also ad the mergemining coins Blakecoin supports.

Hi guys,


When is the delivery date of the first batch?

[ringer1315]

Just wanted to update everybody that Baikal contacted me with payment confirmation. They were probably very backed up because of all the emails flooding their account so give them time. Orders for the next batch haven't been announced yet so you may have to go through a third party reseller until they start accepting more orders.

[ringer1315]

Does anybody have a suggestion on what power supply to use? Giant-B uses about 3-400 watts of power but requires 6x 6-pin connectors. An awp3++ should have the power to run 3 of them but there aren't enough 6-pin connectors to go around. How are people running Giant x10, any suggestions for PSUs on a 220v 30 amp breaker?

[Neo-Geo]

Baikal contacted me a couple days ago to confirm shipping details for my Giant-B order, "As it is getting closer to the shipping date, I am here writing to you for double checking your delivery details."

I already have these extra NIB PSUs on hand not being used, so my plan is as follows:
EVGA 1200W P2 (6 VGA power outputs) for Giant-B x2.
and/or
EVGA 1600W T2 (9 VGA power outputs) for up to Giant-B x3.

Will require 3 VGA power cables for each Giant-B since EVGA includes a bunch of 8-pin from PSU to 2+6-pin w/ 6-pin cables.

I'm a little confused. Giant-B requires 6x 12V 6Pin connector = 36 total pins. if you only use 3x 8 pin VGAs = 32 total pins per unit. How is that equivalent?

It's in the first post

"The algorithm was written as a candidate for SHA-3, Based on round one candidate code from the Sphlib 2.1 library and reduced the round function to 8 rounds."

"8 round Blake-256 is the fastest!"

You don't need to overpay for a psu

 You can run 12-15 miners on a 220v with 30 amps.   I use 30 amps on 240v to charge my car .  I would like to convert my miners to run on 240v.  They use about 7000 watts. Are you in the U.S. ?

wow, i saw someone post their baikal giant B mining on FB. anyone here received yet?

Giant-B inputs = https://www.baikalminer.com/img9/a6.jpg

EVGA VGA power cables, have dozens of these as extras on hand and not enough 8-pin to 8-pin: https://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-8-PIN-TO-dual-8-6-pin-PCIE-VGA-Power-Supply-Cable-for-SuperNOVA-1000-G2-/202146319410

Each out of those VGA power cables includes 2x 6-pin. EVGA 1600W T2 has 9 VGA power outputs. That means 1 PSU & 9 power cables covers 3 Giant-B. Alternatively, EVGA 1200W P2 (6 VGA power outputs) for Giant-B x2.

Hi,
I organise a collective order group of Giant B here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2737485.new#new
If you are interested please post there and then contact me.
Cheers,

[kr1p]

Can someone give more details about the shipment charges on the official baikal miner website and the average customs taxes for europe?
Thank you

What PSU you to buy for Baikal Giant-B ? Can anyone suggest a link?

[Yoda2763]

Does anyone count the amount of heat it produces?

APW3++

[yodaTT]

APW3+ might be overkill in terms of price and delivery. Anything that is good in price and can be delivered fast...
