Just got back from the trade show.
Check out the Ebit E9++

Then there's the Ebit E10

And don’t miss the Ebit E10.1

The price tag is RMB1900/TH, which is nearly 30% higher than what Bitmain is currently charging.
AND it is just a PR pitch.
Maybe - just maybe - they have Engineering samples to tinker with but that is a far cry from anything even close to production status.
Again it MUST be emphasized that 10nm miner chips are a long way off. As said elsewhere, the '10nm' chips used in the latest Galaxy and iPhones are cheaters - only memory cells are 10nm. Toss in that that these nodes are targeting mobile apps - read as low-power - what is possible with a chip pulling under 500mw is a helluva long way from one pulling 10W or more. Just as happened at 16/14nm ya know they are going to pack in as many cores as possible meaning many watts of power per-chip.
I have someone on the ground there who has seen the live demo in person, he is sending me the info live as its happening. They announced production is starting in January. Apparently Samsung was involved in the creation of the chip.
Maybe you are missing something there? First and third picture are the same? Maybe you have pasted wrong link or something like that...
I have just seen those pricing numbers.. 4043.48 for 14 TH/s and 5198.76 for 18 TH/s , IS THIS FOR REAL?
Just had a message from Ivy,
" just now got a news from our management: E9++price is 3680$ per unit. PSU is 100$. E10 price is 4980$ include the PSU. MOQ is 100PCS, delivery time is end of Jan."
So I suppose , if people want to buy then group buy ?
I was also quoted the same prices.
Just when we thought Bitmain were taking advantage of the sitation, Ebang have come in and defined capitalism on steroids.
So i saw that Ebang had their new miners posted to their site (already sold out or maybe havent been up for sale yet), including their E10 which says its based on 10nm tech. I have been reading about new nm tech on here for a while, and it seems there is no way it is possible to have 10nm tech in miners yet because they have only been used in low power tech like cell phone... @notsofuzzy how is it possible that they are ready to sell them in Jan already? im super confused now.

They have not put up any stock yet, they are not actually sold out.
The description of the E9++ and E10 both say 10nm, the spec sheet for both miners says Chip Info DW1227 132pcs（14nm LPP process)....
Unless they drop the price or Bitmain raises theirs I dont see why anyone would by these. Why would anyone pay $1500 for 4 more TH, E9++/E10? Getting them a month earlier does not make up the price difference. Unless you are only reselling them to ebay suckers.
Ive been running 2 E9 6.5TH for a while and have not had any issues so I was ready to place a big order for the E9++. But with the illogical pricing and their non existent customer support I think Im going to pass on Ebit for now.
i saw that the description was still showing 14nm process as well.... strange to me, are they trying to "trick" their customers or is the description page just not update" interesting to say the least.
I also do agree the price is insane. i guess we will find out more if other companies start putting out new miners. so far Avalon isnt using a new process, the dragonminter looks like a fake. I just dont see how Ebang successfully used 10nm process in miners when intel cant even use the same process in high powered products. this is an interesting article about intel and 10nm: https://www.pcper.com/news/Processors/Rumor-Intel-Intentionally-Holding-Back-10nm
Received reply from Ebit sales team. They need 100 units as minimum order . We all need to stick together to break this monopoly. There is no fair trade happening with Chinese manufacturers.
