I want to add one more thing.
I don’t want to spoil Ipollo’s motivation. Because I congratulate this company for releasing first Grin Asic device. However, I appreciate the G1-mini ideas and device naming.
Thanks for everything. Keep improving and please come back between us.
It does seem odd that a company would R&D and release a successful product with zero competition, only to sell < 1000 units for < $500k revenue. Innosilicon told us that their R&D was $1M+ for their Grin ASIC. Perhaps iPollo future productions are 100% presold to local Chinese farm(s) that will pick up in person. Surely their broken joke of a website and missing SSL are intentional to deliberately eliminate customer inquiries. It’s also possible that a deal was made from a single miner. If there was only one ASIC in existence for a promising privacy PoW project, and is from a new and small manufacturer, why not buy out all of the ASICs?
From my experience of the 5x G1-mini ASICs purchased, it’s a great product, and most of us, including myself, would buy more if given the opportunity. It’s the quietest ASIC I’ve ever owned, only uses 82W on average, fast ROI, compact, & good looking. The underpowered PSU solution is solved by purchasing 150W or greater PSU, as many/most of us have done. A fellow miner from the Grin discord provided me with this custom PSU solution involving 240W PSU and an integrated meter. He went as far as designing and printing iChicken logos on both sides of every meter box, “Direct to substrate full color printing process that will print anything on just about any flat surface. UV cured and more durable than even the powder coated enclosure.”
I want to buy the g1 mini but cant contact with ipollo.
They dont answer mail pm on forum to #ipollosales is dead no answer.
Did anybody contact they ??
I look for g1 on alibaba and aliexpress but no luck
Any sugestion ?
If I could I would have ordered more chickens. For now I will just wait for the next generation of miners to hit the market. Just hoping they will make it as accessible to the community as iPollo did, kudos for that.
Actually, if we wanted to, mining machines were only made of one type with the same hashrate for everyone in the world, of course if only the hashrate limitation could be done for c32, decentralization would be formed. If only Grin’s development funds were intended to create a small technology company that produces small mining machines like this one at home. Despite everything, This is the way it is today. Just hope.
This is so awesome to hear I’m sure it will make a lot of people quite happy. Do you have a link to the announcement, Or do you mean the Twitter post? Ty @rockwell
I assume they will post here once the new batch is ready to be sold since that is when they want our money .
I want more G1 Mini’s as well, hope they improve the heat sync and power supply though.
