Starting this thread to share information about Zig Z1... In case you don't know Zig Z1 is a new Lyra2Rev2 ASIC miner from Dayun. It hashes at 6.8GH/s, so that's about 100 1080Tis, with 1250w power consumption, so about 1/20th the power. Dayun seems to be a new manufacturer. They had a website - https://dayunminer.com, but that seems to have disapperaed now!. I got mine from asicminermarket. It has its own unique UI, you can see screenshots on asicminermarket. I was on nicehash, getting about 6.5GH/s on average for 2 days. Four hash boards, and seems to run off a USB flash drive. That was the good part. Now for the bad. Its startup is quite shaky. I needed to re-start the miner process many times for it start hashing. It worked fine for a couple of days, but now its stopped. It comes on, network lights flash, red light stay on, network lights stop flashing, and start flashing again. Looks like its re-booting continuously. If anyone has clues please share. Thanks!

What did you pay for it? One of my suppliers in China quoted $4600 (this is just the machine, no shipping, psu, etc)...
It looks interesting, but isn't Vert and Mona supposed to be switching to a new algo in Q1? My supplier also said this is going to be the only production run of these devices (due to this) - which could be a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it...

I wonder if it's the same people behind Baikal. The Baikal website is also dead.
Anyways; I really want one. Who doesn't.. but.. I will NEVER pay that amount for an ASIC. You get backdoored everytime be the chinese. They only provide for their own. Foreigners rarely get the chance to ROI.

The Baikal website still works ok for me. http://www.baikalminer.com/

I think its around $5000. And I'm pretty sure anyone buying one of these things is looking to make their investment back before that switch

Damn, thats the big problem with these things. Super profitable right now, but what do you do when it breaks?! If you remove all of the cables from the hashboards what does it do? How about if you remove the usb drive?

How about if you remove the usb drive? Vert fork is only Q1-19, so plenty of time to break even I think. I removed all boards, still same behavior. Network lights flash for a minute or so, then go solid and then start flashing again. Endless boot loop. If I remove the usb drive then it the network lights don't even come on, looks like the usb is the boot device from what I could see from its contents.

Yeah, we just got a bunch of Sept 10 A9's, and got the duty hit - it wasn't that bad on ours, I think it came out to about 10% of invoice price, but it can depend heavily on what type of class they pick for the product. I did not get any duty, probably because it was marked as network adapter, and even though it was opened by CBP for inspection.
You'll probably get a letter in a couple weeks (assuming you used some express carrier) - many times they deliver without collecting the duties first (or at least that's what my experience has been). DHL generally won't move it an inch until they get paid, but UPS and FedEx seem to have some different system. You have to be careful about what they put on the invoice (for type of class or price), as you're liable to correct that if there's some mistake. One of my friends got hit with that a couple years ago and had to pay massive fines.

Hi Guys and Girls! I have now activated automatic ASIC recognition on Powermining.pw pool. This ensures that your miners starts at a much better difficulty optimized for these new ASIC`s coming in these days This ensures that you will get a lot lower amount of rejected shares. We already hava a couple mining with they're Zig Z1`s online Lyra2v2 Coins available; Monacoin Vertcoin VERGE Shield Will be adding a couple more tomorrow.

Hey, so I just got one of these this afternoon from my Chinese supplier (pretty good price too) but it is LOUD. I am trying to figure our how to edit the config file to set the fan at 65% since it was only running at about 36 degrees until I can build an enclosure for it. There appear to be 2 separate files, and I am not sure which I shuold try and change, or HOW to change it. Any help is appreciated.
Miner.json (importable)
cgminer.config
Anyone know what command line I use?
Currently I see this in the Miner.json: "stop_lower_fanspeed_in":"100","stop_lower_fanspeed_out":"100"
but have no idea if I just edit that, or something else

Have not seen this kind of settings before, have you tried to adjust both of these to 65%? "stop_lower_fanspeed_in":"100","stop_lower_fanspeed_out":"100"

Have not seen this kind of settings before, have you tried to adjust both of these to 65%? "stop_lower_fanspeed_in":"100","stop_lower_fanspeed_out":"100" I was trying to look at cgminer commands generally to see if I could add a command, something similar to Here is what appears in the JSON file. I am assuming that what that means is that the intake fane is the "in" and the exhaust is the "out". I am just not familiar with these commands. Unfortunately I have to wait because I am short a PSU... I have a 1200W platinum HP PSU, with 8 6 pin connectors, and I need 9... I am sure I could just not run 1 hash board but I have never done that and have some concerns that it would may cause an issue...Thoughts? lyra2rev2-cutofffanspeedin": "100", "lyra2rev2-cutofffanspeedout": "100",
