Good evening friends of Steemit.
Recently the Chinese company Bitmain announced the launch of its first batch of ASIC miners working with the CryptoNight / CryptoNite algorithm, called Antminer X3. In their specifications they claim that it reaches 220 KH / s of processing with 550W of electrical consumption.
The launch of the Antminer X3 has been announced the same week that the company Baikal revealed its Giant-N model of 20 KH / s of processing with 60W of electrical consumption. In February, Monero's developer team, the most recognized CryptoNight crypto-active, announced that it will fork its network every 6 months to avoid using ASIC equipment on its platform.
