New ASIC for mining Zcash from Innosilicon information A9 ZMaster
Innosilicon just announced they are now selling the Innosilicon A9 ZMaster , the specifications on their website read as follows:
Innosilicon A9 ZMaster is a powerful miner with a few times better hash rate than any competition. Just like Innosiliocn recently announced world most efficient 17.2TH BTC T2 miner, this dedicated hardware has very low operating cost, high ROI and longevity. It has a small form factor, low noise, designed to help network decentralization with renewed energy and loyalty.

In my opinion this is an awesome mining rig, but the price is way up there at roughly $10,000.00 . One can argue that the ROI will be faster for the ones that start mining first and the low energy usage make this machine very attractive for the miner that has enough cash to throw on an investment like this. Remember that cryptocurrency mining is a very risky business.
Be safe, be smart, be confident when making a move like this and do your homework.
