Topic: Will The New Challenger End Bitmain's Dominance? (Read 644 times)
Over the past years, the Chinese seem to have displayed great competence in hardware design and manufacturing, evidenced by the fast rise of companies such as avalon and to a greater degree, bitmain, contrasted by the fall of their overseas competitors. But the club of increasingly small number is seeing a newcomer - a previously unknown brand called Yibite.
Last week an invitation email found its way into my email inbox. I was invited by the company to attend their new product launch event in Chengdu, Sichuan tmr. For uninitiated, the province of Sichuan has become a hotbed for bitcoin mining due to abundant hydropower; it is also the place where yours truly chose to locate his moderate SinoHash farm.
I am not sure if I will attend, as I am expecting to receive a new shipment of S9 over the next three days and want to put them online asap. Just post this here thinking that it may interest some of you.
Some key points after a brief review of the email:
The company is publicly listed (at least claim to be - I haven't looked it up), which may give it some legitimacy
The company promise to give 6-month warranty, whilst Bitmain gives you a meager 3 months.
The company claims to have power efficiency of 140W/T, which doesn't seem to be especially impressive.
The company claims that they will release 5,000 units at the launch event.
Anyway, I think this is an interesting development.
