Bitmain Antminer L1 - Speculation...

[squall1066]

This is defiantly a scrypt miner with MHs on the list, My guess it will be 18.2MHs at around 0.92BTC at release, pulling 420W ATW.
This unit will be Ethernet stand alone same as the BTC units.

that is not good.  A gridseed blade is 130-140 used on ebay  4 would be 520 usd hashing at  20mh and power is around 380-400 watts.

  you can buy newer gear from zoomhash. built on gridseed tech

http://zoomhash.com/products/plug-and-play-46mh-s-1000w-scrypt-asic-package-door-to-door-within-5-business-days

above is 46mhs it will pull about 900 watts it costs 589 after the coupon zoom5344    comes with psu.     so 2.3x the hash for 1.2x the power and about the same power per mh.  So if bitmaintech can only provide a 18.2mhs unit at .92 btc it is obsolete.

You do know it was just a guess right    I have no source on this, I was guessing a little under performing as it's batch 1, And the first in the line from them, It will get better as batches go on (thats my view of bitmain)

So interested in final specs

Given Bitmain's reputation, here's hoping that they ship a scrypt miner made to order (not pre order) with a chance of an ROI. My guess is that it probably won't have the power of the upcoming mega monster miners (like the KnC's that haven't shipped), but will likely have a decent MH/s to BTC cost ratio.

I've been pretty happy with my S3's which are 50% of ROI from a BTC perspective after 30 days. If they can turn the same basic deal with scrypt mining, I'm very interested.

Maybe this L1 can be a combo of SHA256 and scrypt ?

[Unblock64]

Please, Mr. BITMAIN let us at least a small information about new product L1
SHA256 or Scrypt.

Please elaborate as to what this is based on... Im pretty sure its way off.

If they are using the 28nm process, the specs will be better; better than the KNC specs?

IF they are using the 28nm process, the specs will be compareable to the Innosilicon A2 chips I guess

To beat Gawminer vaultbreaker at 750mh for 10000 usd, atleast bitmain should have 100mh for 1000 usd. Or maybe they make 50mh per 1 BTC ?

BTW hasra open preorder 100mh for 754 usd at "20 September shipment", some said its zeus's products.

I figured as much that you pulled it out of the ether so to speak.  I have had a lot of scrypt gear pass through my hands.  It need to be very low power to be any good. 30 mh for  400 usd and I am in.

A rig at those specs would NEVER sell at that price.  If I had to guess I would say it'll be in the 50-75MH range at 500-750W.  I would say price wise for that rig would be in the 1 btc range maybe a little more but not much.

This is of course a GUESS!  No reason for my guess just knowing what I've seen Bitmain put out with SHA they don't build BIG rigs.  Reasonable rigs with reasonable power consumption for the REASONABLE person who doesn't own a data center.

Thank you for pointing out!  I did not see this post. Seems like a long wait

[Bitcoinminershop]

Nice 

[cloverme]

Nice, they are coming out with scrypt asic, that means litecoin difficulty going sky rocket.

It will only rocket if people think they can get a lot more LTC/Doge or convert LTC/Doge to BTC for cheaper than the price of mining BTC.  But since everybody buying can do the math if everybody buys it nobody wins except Bitmain.  A game of chicken...

LTC went sub $5 again just now.

There is definitely some investment, GAW is on track for $100M in revenue this year..

GAW sucks... bunch of scammers. I hope the feds raid them and pound justice into them... It would not surprise me to see Josh Garza next to Mark Karpeles.

[Youghoor]

I may buy 2-3 of these but has there been any updates regarding price of these units ?

[Meech]

Oh the ANTicipation is killing me to know more.  Bitmain your such a tease. These may be more profitable if the price and mh is right.

[edonkey]

So at the time of this writing, it's 12:39 PM Beijing time on September 3rd. Where's the big announcement?

[petersiddle98]

If everyone is going to buy the scrypt miner that is coming out, then its not worth buying anymore, the difficulty would sky rocket..

tell me about it have a first batch Titan for $10,131.80 usd...er difficult I would say to get ROI on this ..in that it is still vaporware
on the other hand the way folks speculate with alts I guess I can run the beastie longer then a bitcoin miner...(all them nice lcd's
and whirly sounds) sigh

live and learn

just buying coin now makes no sense to home mine that is for sure not at the current btc price and difficulty wars..I'm out
