If we’re moving away from secp256k1 totally, then we might as well hard fork. No reason to keep SegWit either in that case.

There's other classical problems that we should focus on first. By the time quantum becomes a real issue, we’d be ready for it.

Right now, we should just focus on getting signatures sorted out first.

Seriously, we gotta get moving on some protocol proposals already.

Looks like you might have stumbled on a good option. Just hard to tell from the tiny images.

Could be an in-house solution, right? They probably couldn’t find an affordable connector that fits their needs.

Antminers have two external connections: network and power. Assuming you’re talking about power, right? Looks like a locking style connector that you might have to fit yourself.

Looks like some kind of specialized locking 220V cord. Should come with the miner, right? Here’s some power supply info I found: AC Input voltage: 200~277V AC Input Frequency: 50~60Hz AC Input current: 25A.

This is exactly what I’ve been saying lately. Most of the good coins are already mined. Less stress worrying about logistics too. Using solar isn’t bad, as long as you can avoid financing issues.

Check this out, BITMAIN just launched the ANTMINER S23e U2H. Here are the specs: Model: S23e U2H Sub: 865T Crypto algorithm: SHA256 for BTC/BCH/BSV Hashrate: 865 TH/s Power consumption at 35℃: 8650 W Efficiency: 10 J/T…

You can still make profits with ASICs, but BTC is tough. Most of it is mined already, and retail investors are squeezed out. Best bet is to buy coins instead.

Why not just hire someone to review it? Like HagssFIN, he could do a valid review and help build trust.

How many MW are you planning? I read something good about this on minerdude's site. I’ve got some S19s available and more on the way. They’re not exactly mine, but I can get them. I also accept escrow.

Not sure about P2QRH tbh. I mean, aren't those signatures gonna be huge? Current ones are already a pain with mempool space.

That's my point, though. You say it’s a long way off, but it's a constant game of cat and mouse. Just speculating here, but photonic encryption is part of QKD. Not really interested in going down that road since it…

Here's the thing. Even if quantum encryption becomes a reality, once quantum computing really takes off, current encryption methods will be outdated. No way around it. Can't just change things up for classical systems.…

the Compac F's are a solid choice, around $300 if you can hunt them down. just don’t forget the fan and a good USB hub to make it work well.

Right? HNT used to be promising. I remember people bragging about $1400 monthly back then. Now it’s just complaints everywhere, with many lucky to see $50 a month.

my take? you can start with a single GPU miner. you won't strike gold but hey it's a start, could run at home. expect like $1-$3 daily profit before electricity costs. Helium mining is worth looking into too, with $1k…
