Cons
- 4️⃣ Only 4 Algorithm Currently Available. Imperium R2 is launching with 2 of the top-grossing bitstreams (HNS and CKB). Future bitstream releases are in progress.
- ♻️ 2nd-hand + refurbished FPGAs. Similar to companies like SQRL and HashAltcoin, MONAD has struggled to work with Xilinx and are using FPGAs sourced from our Taiwanese Distributor. These chips are a mix of 2nd hand surplus, recycled datacenter FPGAs, and tested extensively. All chips in MONAD machines are covered by the 1-year warranty.
