Waiting for price drop....or samsung.... LOL
Seriously, Baikal are getting way greedy nowadays...

Baikals are very profitable because they are rare unique and they use little power but that could be changing as they push up production .

Eventually giant b will only be decently profitable on lbry pascal and one of the blake 256 algos, which ever coins are on that. Fingers crossed others dont bring out asics just for those.

Looks like the end is near

Yea, by the time you get your unit the coin will be gutted. It's just like every other company. They "test" mine it themselves for weeks before shipping the units. So they make a killing and you get a week or so of good profits before it drops.

Hi everyone,

I am new in the mining business. Hopefully, I did not enter at the worse time possible.

I just received my Baikal giant b last week, I manage to set it up and it worked for 3 days before it starts showing this sign  Huh Huh
No devices running

I looked everywhere in this forum for a solution but no luck, I tried emailing Baikal support and skyping, no luck too.

Here is a screenshot

Will updating the orange pi help?
I will appreciate any tips or suggestions
Thanks

Did you complete the settings page setup (miners)? Is your fan running? If you had it running and didn't hear anything (the fan is really loud) you might have over heated the boards/chips and fried the unit. The Pi would still function since its separate.

If I remember correctly, there was a thread somewhere that discussed how to troubleshoot the Baikal Giant-B from the command line. It was really helpful and went through all the error codes. I would search for that thread. If I find it I will update my response.
