Based on this malicious attack, IPOLLO miner promises to step up the production with a total 20K(G/S) hashpower in the remaining time of 2020, to support the GRIN community strengthen the GRIN network.
I expect these mini miners will be ready for public sale soon, to get a substantial increasing of the GRIN network hashpower for security.
It does not seem reasonable that a company that has developed such technology has not invested $ 500 dollars for a normal website, no about about or contact page or any relevant information for the buyers.
I forwarded the website comments to IPOLLO, and hope them improving the website quickly.
65 dB-A near the fan when switching on, vs 40 dB-A when off.
55 dB-A if put under the table.
A bit noisy, but this is a prototype, I complained the noise and hope them improve this. There’s some configurations to lower the fan speed.
In my country with the current price of $GRIN ($0.29) and current electricity cost/kWh, this miner would produce around 2.8 USD profit a day, 83 USD a month. Break event point after 6 months
I want to buy 5 G1 mini, it is difficult to have information for the payment, you have to go through gate.io to pay in grin.
I mine grin from the genesis block with gpu.It would be sad if the little ones who support GRIN could not continue to support the network.
65 decibel fan(s) to cool 100W. That’s fan noise I’d expect from 12x the heat/power. Hopefully that prototype gets radically changed. Surely 140MM fan would be more than adequate to cool and would be near silent. $520 price should allow for larger heatsink and fan to avoid small fan at high RPM.
Oh I see now, that makes a bit more sense @ $50 per G1-Mini, but even at 20 units for $1,000, that’s barely 1/2 the hash of the G1 regular ASIC that sells for as low as $1k/each.
This seems retarded. For the price, I could just buy GRIN and watch it appreciate over a year. I’m just getting into this, so quite possible I’m missing something here. But I just don’t see cost benefit. I’d rather build my own miner with higher Hash?
I am finding these all over Alibaba.com with supposed 1.4 hash and 100W consumption. Anywhere from 680-1200 dollars. It would take over a year for ROI in most cases from what I can tell.
Hahaha
each g1mini gives you around 10~11 grin with current price which is about $0.36 usually you get $108 dollar per month and the ROI is 9 month maximum if you can catch the pumps in TO you can get more.
Note=what made you think if you hold grin right now considering lack of demand and 30%+ inflation, your money keep goes up?
Also, I need to warn you about folks in Alibaba that maybe you get a raspberry pie instead of g1mini so becarefull
Thanks for the good tips. I didn’t have a great feeling about Alibaba and I checked ipollo Twitter feed which seems janky at best. Seems a lot of folks are trying sucker in newbies like me.
To your note- I wasn’t saying GRIN would go up necessarily. Just that for the money and if I were interested in GRIN, I would just buy it and hold. Makes more sense to just build my own setups and mine different coin?
