Profitable coins to mine with this unit are MRR Blake 2B and MRR Blake (2B-Sia). Blake 2B comes with a 550Gh/s while Blake 2B-Sia comes with a maximum of 550,000 MH/s. The estimated earnings of this miner will depend on the market conditions and Bitcoin Price.

Efficiency of the SC1 Immersion

Having two algorithms means that the platform is equipped with two efficiency ratings. The Blake2B comes with an efficiency of 0.727j/Gh. Blake2B-Sia also comes with the same efficiency rating of 0.0727/Gh. One would expect that the efficiency differs as the miner is capable of having two algorithms. With this efficiency level comes the full power of mining exotic coins. And this is what separates this Immersion line of product from the rest.
