They often go by MicroBT. They work with a distribution partner called Team Pangolinminer. Got this unit as a sample from them for this review. Team Pangolinminer: www.pangolinminer.com This is a referral link. WhatsMiner M10 is a standalone miner with an integrated controller board, just like earlier WhatsMiner models. No need for a separate controller to operate it. This new model features the latest 16nm BTC ASIC chip, specifically known as QA1800. It offers great power efficiency, clocking in at 0.065 J per Gh/s. The miner includes a built-in power supply, similar to previous models. The new power supply is called WhatsPower P10, with a maximum capacity of 2250 Watts.

I have multiple videos on this unit on  you tube. unboxing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dY5-eLuQYA running https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7N4YphoaCI with sound proofing and a db meter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuPXBR4Zi_U&t=3s Please go here to see my gear's  pool results http://mmpool.org/statistics Estimated Payout Rank   Id   DGM Estimate   PPS   Shares   Rate (MHash/s) 1   06ae84f6   2.47135566   0.00000000   580,082,921,328   37,932,388 2   a5d78fff   6.86130884   0.00000000   130,161,014,576   0 3   c932f3ed   0.42369032   0.00000000   83,452,123,577   0 4   2d0ba29d   0.41592150   0.00000000   76,255,676,391   18,737,453 5   71602a00   0.42911703   0.00000000   40,068,500,221   33,545,470 here is my miner the m10 I also mined it on ckpool.org and would show a little higher about 34.4 http://ckpool.org/users/16yLHLoeyuCLPMXkVpC3gyrRYvwRGwjKJr see bottom for the m10 it is at zero because sadly I only have 1 unit.

Thanks for joining me Phil.

please get us in line for the m10s this m10 truly rocks

I am trying to get on this bandwagon too. My friend that is a bulk buyer got his hands on 1 today but bulk seems to be the best route to get them fast and at a good price.

There is now also a .pdf document version available: edit: https://mega.nz/#!0kljyJ4T!JwpQiDsLBLU8oDIYL1KSkk6Nv8thJ2l_FsKJAHqAgwM

I am really impressed by the M10 being on the 16nm process node.  Ever since they released the specifications been waiting for a review.  For myself it really reinforces the idea that being first to market on 7nm is not the right move.  If there is this much efficiency to be wringed out of 16nm then it would be best to take the time to optimize a full custom ASIC on 7nm.

Well the M10  I have does 68 to 70 watts a th  34500 at 2350 watts = 68.1 watts a th or damn! And they now are talking about a 44th and a 55th m10s  all 16nm  truly impressive engineering. My temps are really good in a 86f room fans are  5000-5100 rpm  boards are 73-73-75 I would like a lessor speed just for the ability to have  safety from a hot room  like 95f

Do they give any info on the firmware or a github. If so I can probably make it happen like I did for the S9/i/j

Great review and write up. They are definitely a company to watch. As it is I could put 3 of these in to replace everything I'm running and and just about double my TH/s Crazy doing this on 16nm. Hopefully sales go well and they can get their hands on some 7nm.

To bad market isn't dictating the pricing their retailers, sorry "distributors" are sell these at. Fun to see them in action and the asic competition is fierce to. Great work HF, I sent links to both yours and philips thread to a few manufacturers in hope to draw some new units your way.

and I just saw the announcement on ebang miner better on paper then this one. 45 watts a th at the wall 44th

Whatsminer.net says this "Dimension: 13.38″ x 7.87″ x 6.69″ / 34cm x 20cm x 17cm" Microbt says this "390 mm (L): 130 mm (L): 220 mm (A)" HaggsFIN or anyone that have it could please measure the total height of this gear? Including the psu. Thanks

Ebang is known for over-promising and under delivering. I got a long email chain with them from before but they seem more true to their word on this one. Time will tell and I think my email chain is getting my a front row seat to maybe getting my hands on on early since they know me on the forums. I might have to join this review bandwagon boys haha.

Hi! MicroBT has it right. Please see the technical specifications in my opening post. I have checked and confirmed it, those are the right dimensions.

or not.. many of their chips are not the leaders in efficiency . They sell cheap gear cheap prices  been this way for a while in btc miners. The thing is  if they put out a 30th at 2400 watts and sell it at  800-1000 it kills off everyone.

When you say they are talking about 44th etc, do you mean Pangolin is talking about putting out M10s with those outputs?

MicroBT is the manufacturer. They say that the M10S can do 55 Th/s hash rate with 65 W per Th/s power efficiency or 44 Th/s hash rate with 60 W per Th/s power efficiency. So I suppose there are two different modes you can choose.

thanks for the clarification, so it would be a potential firmware modification or something. I was getting ready to order one since I'm not feeling the Antminer s15.

Yeah I think they might have two different performance options available in the GUI.
