The Crypt0 Minute #6: Bitmain Releasing Ethereum Mining Overlord- Will Ethereum Hard-Fork?

in crypto-news •  7 years ago 

Seems to be that Bitmain ETH miners are already on the network. I don't believe they have landed in North America yet, but they always seem to release ordering info when they can't hide it anymore. There is already speculation that ETH miners will fork away to make the ASIC miners useless (similar to Monero tweaking their POW algo), but until there is more known about the ASICs there shouldn't be a rush to fork as one would need to be sure that the tweak would negate the advantage of ASICs. Thanks Omar and Elle for keeping the crypto community updated. Both of you make crypto much more fun to follow. Keep up the good work !
