https://youtu.be/zOH2GokVx6o Bitmain has officially released their Ethereum ASIC cryptocurrency miner the Bitmain Antminer E3 hashing 180 mh/s on Ethash (Ethereum, Etheruem Classic, PIRL, UBIQ, and more) and consuming 800 watts. The performance is not much different than an Ethereum GPU Mining Rig especially when graphics card prices were lower but the price to profitability of the Bitmain Antminer E3 may alarm you.

Why would ETH have to hardfork ? The E3 hashes less than every one of my GPU rigs . It is more efficient and it doesn't compete with GPU gamers.
It sounds like a win win for everyone.

it's not even more efficient, p104-100 is better 40MH for 100 watt only, so 320MH for 800 watt |

Hardfork not only help to survive the gpu company it can also help millions of gpu to be junk or to sell too cheaper.. ASIC MIner can kill the GPU company because of the dominal effect that most of the miners will sell for sure their gpu in a very cheap price, what was the effect of that? The 2 gpu chip company will going to force sell low price, low quality or it may cause to stop their production... Just my thoughts... SO ETH HARDFORK is the only way and solution.. But please make sure that this hardfork is a TRUE ASIC RESISTANT algo..

miners make less in recent years. Bitmain only aims to profit itself with the devices it produces.
The miners don't give a shit about him.

this forum is full of selfish people, hardfork so GPU companies last? why me as a gamer should pay hundred more bucks because of some greedy f*** ?
i will never support HF and hope this one fail like the one before.

You are crying foul for a $100. You seem pretty greedy ! |

The Metropolis Update is around the corner...
For those who don't know is making ETH from PoW algorithm to PoS algorithm, similar to Zcash.
A Fork Now will create 3 coins and will make harder to launch Metropolis Update,
Or will force ETH developers to launch the Metropolis Update before is complete. "With serious bugs."
Ethereum Classic ETC "inmutable"
Ethereum 2016 Fork "mutable" PoW algorithm.
Ethereum 2018 Fork different PoW Algorithm.
Ethereum 2018 Metropolis Update from 2016 Fork. ETH
When ETH becomes PoS all mining farms will become useless.
PoW Miners with lots of GPU's will have to abandon ETH...
Some people say that Bitmain decided to sell EThash miner now because the Metropolis Update...
It was a secret weapon,
When ETH becomes PoS, ASIC Miners can only be used in Ethereum Classic...
It could mean the rebirth of the ETClassic from the Ashes.!
The Updates before Metropolis includes progressive infinite difficulty... already installed.

Such a ridiculous title that I am not even going to watch the video. The price to performance ratio is no different than the people who were able to buy hundreds of 480s and 580s for under 200 bucks each. Should we punish them while we are at it? The forking frenzy is getting out of control. It kind of reminds me of politics to be honest. The group that is currently benefiting is the group that demands change when they suddenly don't have an advantage anymore.

I fully agree. People need to be careful what they wish for. An algo change could easily propel Ethereum Classic above ETH. Why would anyone invest in a technology that shows its willingness to change rules on a whim. |

Given your argument, one could also say a lack of algo change could easily propel ETH below Ethereum Classic. Why would anyone invest in a technology that is not willing to adapt to changes? As a GPU miner, i'm all for banning ASICs to keep my rigs profitable. As an investor, i'd still vote for banning ASICs to ensure no single company monopolizes the mining industry. |

as far as I know...
ETH 2016 Fork has a Time Bomb, that slowly makes imposible to Mine...
ETClassic does Not.
Making a Fork to Ban ASIC solves Nothing, ETH roadmap goes directly to a cliff.
ETH developers have already banned GPU's. LOL. Jajajajajajaja

What about the other etash coins ? UBIQ , Metaverse , Pirl and others ? |

You want to hear about greed? Research the company Bitmain. Who is buying these? They will ROI in the current market so the incentive is there.. |

Eth should think REALLY hard about hardforking into something ASIC resistant. I dont know the relationship between Jihan and Vatilik, but for the coin, ASIC resistant algo would be better in the long run. Both for users and for HODLers.

To preface... Vosk, I didn't know you were a poster on BTCT as well. I enjoy watching your videos (and I'm a KMD hodler as well - so big kudos to you for all your work). I always enjoy your content. I fully agree. People need to be careful what they wish for. An algo change could easily propel Ethereum Classic above ETH. Why would anyone invest in a technology that shows its willingness to change rules on a whim.
Given your argument, one could also say a lack of algo change could easily propel ETH below Ethereum Classic. Why would anyone invest in a technology that is not willing to adapt to changes? As a GPU miner, i'm all for banning ASICs to keep my rigs profitable. As an investor, i'd still vote for banning ASICs to ensure no single company monopolizes the mining industry. My input resonates with this statement as well. I understand peoples concern for constant changes in a currently functioning protocol, but if it's for the sustainability of the protocol itself (of keeping the network decentralized) - I'm for it. Although I do have to admit the hashrate of these ASIC Miners are pretty unconvincing to me. This is no where near the massive hashrate / efficiency spike we see when ASICs are implemented compared to other algorithms in my opinion, so I dont see it as much of a threat. I feel neutral and actally a bit positive about the outcome...Especially knowing how vehemently the Ethereum team wants to stop this. |

Eth is already ASIC resistant due to the RAM needed . That is why the E3 hashes at 200 mh/s and not 20,000 mh/s. There is absolutely no reason for a fork . It would be cool if the E3 could dual mine ETH and Decred . |
