The sale of the up to date Professional model of the AntMiner E9 ETC/ETC miner is outwardly going to start out in just a few days in accordance with a tweet from Bitmain. The brand new Bitmain AntMiner E9 Professional ETC miner is meant to ship 3680 MH/s with 2200 Watts of energy utilization or 0.6J per MH/s effectivity with a worth of $1299 USD per unit (with out transport and taxes) with the gross sales beginning on February third (as much as 50 miners per order most). The brand new ETChash miner isn’t but listed on the official web site, however ought to quickly seem with gross sales about to start out proper very quickly, it definitely is a pleasant enchancment by way of hashrate and effectivity in comparison with the older non-pro E9 mannequin providing 2400 MH/s at 1920 Watts of energy utilization (0.8 J/M).
