Wow just checked and difficulty has aready doubled. I feel for the people that paid 10k+.
Will next batch price be reduced?
Overall the Baikal Giant B miner has gone from $400/day to $256/day just after its release.
The one algorithm Giant B uses that pays the most by far is Lbry, the other algorithms just don't perform with the device.
Checking profitability of each algorithm mined on Baikal Giant B gives: api.nicehash.com
Algorithm Hash Rate Power
Blake256R14 160GH +/- 10 % 410W +/- 5%
Blake256R8 160GH +/- 10 % 260W +/- 5%
Blake2B 80GH +/- 10 % 300W +/- 5%
Lbry 40GH +/- 10 % 400W +/- 5%
Pascal 40GH +/- 10 % 210W +/- 5%
This isn't accurate either.
Check out whattomine.com before making these claims. Nicehash is based on people buying hashing power and the prices you'll get are always lower and/or always fluctuate based on hash demand.
With current difficulty, you will earn $385USD/Day mining direct through a multi-algo pool (+/- 2-5% for pool and auto exchange fees) - no not even a 20% drop.
As someone who bought in Batch 2, i dont want to see profitability drop anymore - but at the exact same time, being disingenuous isn't fair to those here either.
