Yeah and this whole thread has been quite useless so far.

Nothing real information with real sources on the subject ("Bitmain Antminer S11") that would give anyone anything.

Just a waste of everybody's time.

true, but I think there won't be an antminer s11 until bitcoin mining with s9 isn't profitable anymore (which I can't see in the near future) or like all people said a competitor brings something better out. I've got many s9 miners over here in Austria and I hope for some delay on new ASICs to be profitable a litte bit more.

Genesis Mining is sold newer sha256 mining contacts starting on 28 February and and of march, I guess they got some new stuff next year.
I know they have a lot of miners of Bitmaintech in the past so that`s why I think a newer miner will pop up soon (somewhere in Q1 2018).

Or -- they are hawking the upcoming Canaan A8's which are due to be released to major customers in that same time frame...
Since there IS NO 'S11' in the works from Bitemain and only your pure wild speculation on them, guess what I'd bet on... Wink

Fuzzy, check out the november 10 post on bitmain facebook. It says 7nm is under development. So, is it possible?

7nm is kinda alot better than 16nm? It is less than half the size.

7nm mining is not possible to happen in Q1 or Q2 2018, even TSMC or Samsung are still struggle to bring their 7nm to commercial production. If either TSMC or Samsung do successfully produce commercial production, the 7nm wafer will go to APPLE, snapdragon 1st.

Note: Bitmain purchase 16nm wafer currently from TSMC for their antminer s9.

most probably 10nm chip for their next gen antminer same like ebang E10.

correct me if i am wrong. tq

But wasnt there a japan gmo company that was also researchin into 7nm?
Maybe it is possible mining market gets some too? Hmmm yeah but probably not in next 6 months
