Obelisk company announced its ASIC for GRIN cryptocurrency back in January 2019, almost immediately after the announcement of the GRIN cryptocurrency itself. In January, it was proposed to purchase an asic with a 100GPS hash rate with a consumption of 400W at a price of 3000USD. If you now go to the Obelisk website, you can already see 3 options for ASIC: GRN1, GRN1 Mini and GRN1 Immersion, and not one of them does not match the characteristics of what was announced in January 2019. What the company will do with previous pre-orders and its data promises in January is not entirely clear. Today, the first batch is sold in 2000 units of Asics, which will end on May 3, 2019. In October, when the first deliveries begin, 500 additional ASN GRN1 units will go on sale.

The last modification will be made only for use with water (immersion) cooling, the cooling system itself will need to be purchased separately from third-party manufacturers. For other designs, air cooling is provided as well as power supplies.
On the official website of the Obelisk company you can pre-order any of these asic until May 3, 2019, if you find this solution beneficial.
