Litecoin has a super-stable difficulty, it's almost like bitcoin, most calculators work fine with it.

Verge actually should pay out BETTER than what the calculator says as the difficulty over the alast 24h and 7d is decreasing and the calculators always calculate a static difficulty and don't have any variance. AND XVG is actually vulnerable to a difficulty retarget exploit - it will retarget too low when hashrate drops under a certain point and then will retarget too high ... during that time you can mine much more profitable.. After that phase you stop your miners, mine a different coin and come back to XVG when the diff dropped again

Many other algos have the same problem on whattomine, simply try a few other pools and coins and you'll notice that as well, DASH is a good example - it was super-exploited with the D3's coming online back in the days.

However, to come back to the PPLNS vs. Prop - did you read my link and explanation about that ? Are you still so certain that Prop payout is so much better ?

If Verge should pay out more than the Calcs say, then why am I getting around 550 XVG per day on the new myriad groestl xvg pool of yours when it should be almost 700? (Last days the calc showed even 800 once)

Most likely due to the borked 4.0 fork they tried which orphaned most of the blocks yesterday and due to the already mentioned hoppers which hop in and out of XVG

Blake 2b is shitcoin aka Sia .   The Giant B can also mine Blake 256r14 for Decred and  Blake 256r8  which I believe is Blakecoin and possibly one other .



       You probably won't ever mine any of that with that miner and focus on Pacal , Pascal lite and Library coins .

I also brought from the USA, can you share the name of your supply in USA?

Thanks

My source was Baikal, meaning that I placed an order directly from Baikal @ $3600/unit x6. I'm i the USA. Giant-B x6 shipped from Hong Kong factory to me in USA, tracking provided last night, now in transit for 2 biz day delivery. Just letting others know that are in USA or North America that we'll be mining shortly.

   Sounds like you will be in great shape on Tuesday .   Are you planning on mining with all or sell some ?

Looking forward to your review and take some pix

Interested as well.  Currently the only miner capable of mining multiple currencies, well we'll see.

hello,
       How are you people able to order from Baikal directly? I visited there website, emailed them they are out of stock! They sent me an email stating they will ship in Q2 and to fill up this form( https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScZS3yXPmhd_a3yA6OiXoqFfXnQeCFpjtw9OyU820CnlaQrUg/viewform?usp=sf_link).
Is it even profitable to wait till Q2???

Thank you

Hi guys! Did somebody (Baikal B owners) connected to Nicehash?

Exactly. An the first batch is not even delivered to all buyers. Anyone who were paying more than 4k usd for this miner will have a hard time to make roi on them. I am not talking about 10k + usd prices, it's a big joke. I will better invest that amount into some coin and make 50 % or so gain, then wait 1 year for a miner to roi

   They will defiantly be profitable in Q2 because the low wattage and choice of algorithms .  The question is how profitable ?

    Will they earn $400 , 800 , $1200 ?   

     I personally would pay no more than $7500 for a February shipment and their value for Q2 will be much less .
