What type of hardware you need to reach 270TH ?
You could do it with a single pair of the Antminer S19 XPs (140 TH/s each).
Or you could do it with about twenty of the Antminer S9s (14 TH/s each).

There's no way to identity what specific equipment is in use though.

could be even a gameboy :)

Yes. Even a gameboy. Assuming you can wait for
560,315,049,676,560 (560 trillion) years!

Somebody tell to the "gameboy" guy to switch to BSV and make a 51% attack and finish once and for all that shit
reply
LOL, ... might also need a handful of PS4s too, but it could probably do it!!
It would be ironic justice though if what finished off BSV was some toys!!
reply
anyways, now BSV have only 2 miners: Faketoshi and his mom :)

I have patience :)

You mean a loooot of gameboy ?
reply
No. It is possible also with just one... if you are really lucky.
Mining is about luck in the end.

Ok it's like you find the correct hash on the first time ?
reply
This makes me think it would be neat to see a list of all hashes that were found simultaneously. I guess that's just a chart of chaintips?

stacker news makes it easy to pay for small amounts of information to be sourced in this way
fucking mind blowing
but also you need to be fast to broadcast it before others...

Haha seems to be almost impossible with this kind of hardware so.

There are many options for industrial miners, but you can also achieve that with home miners.
Here are a couple of options:
About a thousand USB sticks like this one:
That's a Compac F and can mine at about 300GH+.
Or you can get about a hundred of these guys:
That's an Apollo BTC(three in that picture), each one of those units mines at about 3TH+
