What can Antminer D3 mine? Can Antminer DR5 mine HC?

After the official release of Antminer D3, a batch of “coin circle” mining projects appeared on the market: Antminer D3, Litecoin L3+, Tron L1+, and EOSTRX+.

Currently, what can Antminer D3 do? AntChain, a subsidiary of Ant Blockchain, is a new generation financial infrastructure platform built on high-performance public cloud and distributed computing technologies. Its product line includes digital currency lending services, decentralized exchange platforms (DEX), asset management solutions, and more.

According to Antminer’s official introduction, can DR5 series products mine HC? Currently, HC has certain limitations in terms of coin price and performance. However, for customers who use DCR to mine Bitcoin, if they choose Ethereum, it will be more attractive. According to data from eoscanada.com, as of around 18:00 on June 3, the mining power of Antminer has surpassed that of internet giants such as Huawei, WeBank, and Baidu. So why not consider DR5 as a Bitcoin mining hardware? It’s simple – because it’s a mining device, its power consumption is low. Therefore, using this machine to mine HC is equivalent to electricity or water expenses. Of course, this is only for ordinary people. At the same time, DR5 is also a cryptocurrency trading platform that uses “smart contracts”, so users can also engage in various token exchanges. However, due to the existence of speculation in the blockchain industry, many investors believe that such new digital assets may become a new investment target, and some even question the feasibility of this technology. In addition, regarding the issue of HC mining, let’s first look at the relevant content of HC. What is Antminer? It is understood that recently, some well-known domestic mobile phone manufacturers have successively launched their own chips, including AMD under Nvidia, and the product lines of Nvidia and AMD are also under development, but they have not been officially disclosed to the public.

At the beginning of this year, a person named Lei Jun revealed to the media that the 2G graphics cards purchased by his company will be used for Bitcoin hash calculation power. He said, “Now all the mining machines on the market are being considered, and the selling price of these products is 10 RMB, with little profit margins.” Recently, netizens broke the news: “This product may be the latest high-performance mining machine produced by Bitmain, which is indeed unfamiliar to many people, such as TSMC’s 7nm god horse M30S or Avalon A9Pro high-end versions, which may also be related to Bitcoin. “I believe that this time everyone is not very familiar with it, after all, the miners still need to buy new ASIC mining machines to play, otherwise there will definitely be no good profits.” Compared with mainstream mining machines such as Antminer S19 and S17e, more importantly, the DRV8 series can support more algorithms, that is to say, it can be integrated into the cloud in addition to zkSync.

As for whether Antminer DR5 can mine HC, it is not a new thing. Previously, there were reports that Antminer was testing an encrypted network based on HCI protocol. However, recently, DRI5 has also started to go online for testing and entered the operating phase. As of the time of writing, DR5’s mining efficiency is 18.4MH/s, which is an improvement compared to the PDAa system provided by previous Antminers. However, this does not mean that DRU5 can only be used as hardware for Bitcoin mining, but aims to compete for more mining power.
