Another Upcoming SiaCoin ASIC, the DragonMint B52 Blake2b Miner

capable of 3.5 THS Blake2b mining

This seems unbelievable for the amount of chips...

Bitmain JUST released the A3 miner and it contains 180 chips ...

180 chips

5

3 boards per miner

6

10
220VAC Power @25℃ ,93%
conversion efficiency of APW3

1275 W +7%

HalongMining wants to be that guy who one ups everyone, they want to one up bitmain... The s9 is 14TH/s.... their 16T is 16TH/s.
Now 815GH/s to 3.5 TH/s is quite a bit more than a one up for sure..but it seems unbelievable to achieve with what they're stating.

Code:

Blake2b miner. 3.5TH/s at 1000W -/+8% with 135 chips.

ASIC with only 135 chips with only 1000w draw -/+ 8%. Its quite ironic that they announce this miner directly after bitmain starts selling their miners. As of right now, their B52 Blakeminer does not even exist and is a theoretical product with a wait list. For all we know it could be MONTHS before production and shipping of such a machine if it is in the works.

Anyone who just got their hands on an A3 shouldn't fear the B52 just yet... By the time they are released the A3 will have produced enough to buy 3 B52's
