A simple question :
is this an ASICS ETH miner
1665 worker with 120 +/-1 Mhs each
https://eth.nanopool.org/account/0x39d27d66c14f7372553b1ba59833c6ba8981a76a

has 45519 ETH : the same : hhttps://www.etherchain.org/account/c257274276a4e539741ca11b590b9447b26a8051#transactions

the only equivalent is 2 X tesla per worker but no it seems to be an asics firm



 Biggest rig is only around 200 Mhash - that's well within standard GPU mining rig territory.

 I'm more worried that Antpool added ETH and ETC options at some point - *USUALLY* Bitmain doesn't add coins unless they are working on an ASIC for that algorithm, though ETH in particular is "big enough" they might have just added it for the pool fee income.




Going by this thread, Antpool has had an ETH pool since at least May 2016.
