Grin mining machines have been put into use, and the current network computing power is 22378Gps

According to BlockBeats, Gary, a former core developer of the privacy project Grin, recently said in a forum that he borrowed a Grin Asic mining machine and ran a test run. Three blocks were mined in less than 24 hours.

Gary described the appearance of the mining machine. Similar to other Asic mining machines, the size of the Grin mining machine is about 44cm x20cm x35cm, and the box weighs about 20 kg. Gary connected the mining machine to a grin node to try mining. In less than 24 hours, he mined 3 blocks (819660, 820461, 820801), with a total of 180 Grin rewards. However, Gary said that because he did not adjust the cooling fan to the maximum to control noise when mining at home, the mining efficiency of the mining machine may be higher.

From the data, this ASIC mining machine supports C31 and C32 algorithms (in the hard fork upgrade in July, the Grin 29 algorithm was upgraded from Cuckaroom to Cuckarooz). The current computing power of the algorithm Cuckatoo32 (AT32) is 14833 Gps, and the computing power of the algorithm Cuckaroo29 (AR29) is 7545 Gps.

BlockBeats reminds that according to the document "Risk Warning on Preventing Illegal Fund Raising in the Name of "Virtual Currency" and "Blockchain"" issued by the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission and other five departments in August 2018, the general public is requested to look at blockchain rationally, not blindly believe in the exaggerated promises, establish correct monetary concepts and investment ideas, and effectively enhance risk awareness; any clues of illegal and criminal activities discovered can be actively reported to the relevant departments.
