🧠 For five years Monero did what almost no other coin dares: it bricked ASIC miners on purpose. Now Bitmain has built the Antminer X9, an ASIC miner made for the exact algorithm that was supposed to keep them out.
In 2019 Monero moved to RandomX so that only ordinary CPUs could mine it. The X9 cracks it with custom RISC-V cores: 1 MH/s at 2,472 W, or 2.47 J/KH, which is remarkable for first-generation silicon on an algorithm nobody had cracked. It is early hardware on a network that has been almost all CPUs, and early is where mining rewards are biggest. We also talk openly about the part most sellers skip.
In this video, you'll see:
⚙️ Full specs: 1 MH/s, 2,472 W, 2.47 J/KH, custom RISC-V cores
⏰ Why being early on a new ASIC network matters so much
⚠️ The honest risk: could Monero fork RandomX again?
📦 Supply: what we know so far, and our replacement promise
The Antminer X9: a first-generation ASIC miner built for RandomX.
🌍 First-gen silicon on brand-new firmware fails more often than mature hardware, so where you run an X9 matters twice as much. Hosted with OneMiners, it runs on low-cost industrial power with 24/7 monitoring, a 7-year hardware warranty, 98%+ observed uptime and 0% management fees, so you keep all of the XMR it mines.
The honest risk: Monero has forked ASICs off its network before.
