Just to follow up what I said about the 7% improvement figure yesterday
RNS 5 November 2021
" ... Preliminary approximate calculations indicate that on a 12nm ASIC chip, extrapolated by comparing it
to a commercial mid-range 16nm ASIC Bitcoin mining chip (with circa 300 million gates), our ASIC could
achieve a double hash rate of 392 GH/s, with the ASIC ULTRA Boost optimisation adding an extra 7%
as previously announced, reaching 419 GH/s, which would still be 2.26 times slower than the fastest
ASIC commercially available...."
So this is, according to Gardin, an optimisation by Naik from Prior Art clearly. Chances of obtaining a patent from ASIC ULTRA Boost application is nil
