Just dropped a request on Electroneum official webpage for BANNING this miner. This ASIC will ruin mining experience. XMR already announced that they would ban this shit.
It will be funny watching ETN devs doing another great job on their Github and then rolling it back because whole net stop working  ETN has devs? TIL Last time they paid a guy from the monero community to apply a patch that was written months ago because they had no idea what to do with it... Even after Monero hardfork and the other coins Baikal N won't be able to mine it anymore (if it won't be updated), it will mine ETN like hell for ages or I hope so BTW you would be lucky if they even answer... I'm waiting for unblocking my wallet for 2 weeks. Mattthev - Your miner is still in production mining for them!
I know that, it's called output control |

Hi I have purchased 6 but have no idea where I'm looking for a power adaptor and PSU. Can someone point me in the right direction ?

Same problem, but I hope they will at least ship it with the 6pin adapter, then you just have to buy some cheap laptop PSU at least 100W I would say. |

there are always fail safes everywhere, so as cryptonight devs will not allow it and so baikal company have ways to adapt to a new algo if that happens, let's see who will win in the end.

If Electroneum change the algo like Monero announce, the daily trading volume of all other cryptonight coins are very low, and We can expect a big price drop of cryptonight coins soon. Coin owners probably protect their coins, and change the algo. ROI for this unit will be long... Good thing is that price of cryptonight contracts on NiceHash will be very low  |

The guys over at baikal(or asicminersmarket?) have probably been mining with this equipment for a while. Did a quick search on google, and this thread came up: https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/comments/7s9zwe/fpga_mining/ - with the identical specs with the "new" baikals. It may seem that we are receiving used equipment and that this is reason of increase of hashrate over the last months. The reason for them selling them now may well be the upcoming fork. |

Very interesting...really the same specs, thanks for sharing...in effect I do not find that Baikal declare that those units are new...but probably passed looong BurnIn tests |

Got a reply from Ricardo Spagni on twitter @Fluffypony about Baikal N mining monero:
It won’t mine Monero, so sorry for anyone that orders it without realising they’re being scammed.

Shouldn't people be wondering why these are for sale now and not when they were prob built in early jan? You are being sold used and soon to be almost useless miners once monero forks. Wake up people.

You argument seems valid, i am not buying at this price. Maybe if it was $1200 or so i would take the risk but for this price its not worth risk. |

Remember guys, the main proposal of cryptos in general is Decentralization
Asics and big farms are total against Decentralization, we are losing focus here, we can say NO to every Asic and DO NOT BUY these craps

Would someone be able to share the Baikal payment details they have received for their Giant N order?
Thanks.

Totally agree!!! Plus, just about EVERY cryptonote coin has used "anti ASIC" or "ASIC resistant" as one of their selling points. It's time for every one of these projects to live up to that promise and support the CPU/GPU miners that have built them up. |

this has got to be one of the "dumbest" asics out there. you can build an amd gpu rig to mine 20MH for about the same price. sure, the power consumption is higher on a gpu rig, but it least I won't be stuck with a $5000 piece of trash when all cryptonight coins hard fork to follow monero so that they can't be mined by this thing.
You are not building a gpu rig for $3600 that can do 20kh/s After taxes import and shipping that $3600 is more like $4000-$4500. and yes, for $4000-$4500 I can build a gpu rig that mines cryptonight at 20MH. I've been doing it for months, and i'll keep building rigs at this price and lately even cheaper. If you can't figure that out, then you're doing it wrong. |

I doubt you are (not saying that you are not) and also what is the power draw on those rigs??? |

I think ASICs are a positive for Monero because it may limit the ad mining with your CPU ... or, at least, make it less profitable. |

Please build me a GPU rig that can do 20MH with using $4500  . I know you meant 20kH |
