Avoid obelisk like the plagued. They screwed their customers over with dcr1 batch 1 and 2. I've heard way too many horror stories on their discord.

They also made customers rich with Sia

Obelisk does disclose some preliminary specifications for the GRN1 with a rough figure of 100GPS @ 800w, though the site does also say more detailed specifications for the GRN1 should be coming out sometime during this month. Innosilicon only states their miner should be less than 500W.

Interestingly enough you can also prebuy the GRN1 at $3000 USD and get $2000 USD of your purchase back before their sales close with no questions asked. Innosilicon seems to be trying to offer something similar with their lower-wattage miner with a $2k refundable deposit that's refundable within 2 weeks of the true specs being announced for the miner. Will be interesting to see which manufacturer comes out on top in terms of efficiency and how that compares with a good GPU mining Grin.

I'm also willing to bet Bitmain is already working on one to.  They don't seem to release anything until it is almost ready.  They are probably watching other manufactures and making sure they can beat their numbers.

Sounds to me like it’s def going to underperform compared to rest of manufacturer releases.  Why would you only refund 2/3 of initial invest.  Looks like they found a new scheme to fleece the masses.  This is really such a joke at this point.  If your reading this and some dev has pulled the magic over your eyes and has you thinking any coin is asic resistant is not being truthful with themselves or just outright a liar!   What we are seeing is the crowd funding develop to put them out of the game.  Making algos so that it requires the best of the best equip to mine.  Slowly but surely pushing this to the rich.  Nothin like digging your own graves ehh folks.  

Ie. C31 algo using 11g cards. Lmao.  Really!!   At what point do you fall for them selling you a flux capacitor to run all your hw. 😜

I think that the number of asics will be a very small amount. The number of coins is endless, and no one needs it.
The technology will be used in popular coins, and the price of a grin will only fall.

I think that if they start using ASICs then the same story as with GRIN will happen to ZEC. Moreover, the project did not have ICO and the team works only for donations. Recently, even projects that collected a lot of money can not contain employees.

Grin is not connected to anyone. If the community wants, the supply with the fork falls and the boundary comes.
