Does anybody have a suggestion on what power supply to use? Giant-B uses about 3-400 watts of power but requires 6x 6-pin connectors. An awp3++ should have the power to run 3 of them but there aren't enough 6-pin connectors to go around. How are people running Giant x10, any suggestions for PSUs on a 220v 30 amp breaker?

 You can run 12-15 miners on a 220v with 30 amps.   I use 30 amps on 240v to charge my car .  I would like to convert my miners to run on 240v.  They use about 7000 watts. Are you in the U.S. ?

I looked into Blakecoin and see it uses blake256, bit i couldn't find if it is Blake256R8.
I will update the listing for now. Once the miner is out we will know for sure which coins can be mined.
If it works I will also ad the mergemining coins Blakecoin supports.

It's in the first post
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=306894.msg3290239;topicseen#msg3290239

"The algorithm was written as a candidate for SHA-3, Based on round one candidate code from the Sphlib 2.1 library and reduced the round function to 8 rounds."

"8 round Blake-256 is the fastest!"


Baikal contacted me a couple days ago to confirm shipping details for my Giant-B order, "As it is getting closer to the shipping date, I am here writing to you for double checking your delivery details."

I already have these extra NIB PSUs on hand not being used, so my plan is as follows:
EVGA 1200W P2 (6 VGA power outputs) for Giant-B x2.
and/or
EVGA 1600W T2 (9 VGA power outputs) for up to Giant-B x3.

Will require 3 VGA power cables for each Giant-B since EVGA includes a bunch of 8-pin from PSU to 2+6-pin w/ 6-pin cables.

I'm a little confused. Giant-B requires 6x 12V 6Pin connector = 36 total pins. if you only use 3x 8 pin VGAs = 32 total pins per unit. How is that equivalent?

You don't need to overpay for a psu  Grin

Just wanted to update everybody that Baikal contacted me with payment confirmation. They were probably very backed up because of all the emails flooding their account so give them time. Orders for the next batch haven't been announced yet so you may have to go through a third party reseller until they start accepting more orders.

Hi everyone, we made an overview of all coins that can be mined with the Baikal Giant-B
https://cryptodelver.com/asic/baikal-giant-b

If you know any other coins for this ASIC please let me know  Cheesy

  Is Blakecoin dead ?  


Blakecoin seems to be alive and kicking.

 Is Blakecoin dead ?  

BlakeCoin + Child Chains are alive and Merge Mining beautifully Wink

Ok so to my understanding you can mine with Baikal Giant B the following:

Blake256R14 --- Decred (DCR)
Blake256R8 --- Vcash (XVC) - no profit/no one mines this? or I'm I too dumb
Blake2B --- Sia (SC)
Lbry --- LBRY (LBC) - THE ONE AND ONLY!
Pascal --- Pascalcoin (PASC)

Are these info correct?

We do not know which Blake256R8 coins this will support.
I would assume it would be supporting the BlakeCoin Blake256R8 as Vcash is usually referred to as Blake256R8VNL or maybe there would be an option for both  Grin

I looked into Blakecoin and see it uses blake256, bit i couldn't find if it is Blake256R8.

Very cool. Any way you can add in the 24 hour whattomine.com revenue for each coin at the Giant-Bs hashing rate? That would be my only request.

Has anyone ordered one of these in the last couple days?
Emailed them three days ago and they said they were not taking orders

I had my order locked in before Christmas but sent a wire on January 3rd (between the Jan-1st and Jan-5th payment window) and haven't gotten a confirmation from him yet. Starting to worry a bit. Hoping he confirms within the next day or two.

Hello,

I had the same experience but they replied just yesterday and confirmed the payment so don't worry...

Hello all,
Are some people interested to organize a group by of 15 or 20 units (in case they raise the minimum amount of units to be ordered in the next batch) to be prepared next time baikalshop is ready to accept orders again (on baikaminer.com)?
I just need to be confirmed the payment is made by wire transfer in USD. Can some people who order confirm to me it is the case. Also if I have a bank account in Euro, do they accept the wire transfer of the equivalent amount in Euro (in other words do the banks do the conversion through the wire transfer from a euro account to a us dollar account)?
We are two people from France interested but we barely get enough money to get 2 and ITOP and Bittawmart are out of sale already to order only one or two units.
I could organize the group buy but Im new to the forum and dont have references. It would be better if we had an organizer who is already trusted on the forum. Anyone up for this?
Best,
kr1p

Probably better of posting that in the group buy thread. Yeah, the payment he requests is a USD wire.

   Did you order the six minimum ?  I asked about an order during the same time period .  They told me min of six @$3600 plus shipping .  The next day I asked for the total with shipping to Texas and they were already sold.   Oh , well it would have takin' a few weeks to raise the money anyways.

Yeah, i was confirmed an order of 6 and he gave me a time period to complete the wire. Just trying to wait patiently for him to verify the payment so i can relax a bit. I'll give an update when he confirms to help ease the nerves of other people in a similar situation.
