From what Skot said, those chips are pretty fresh and currently only sold in packs of 324... not exactly convenient.

Looks like a new miner is here! Skot just dropped the bitaxeSupra, claiming it runs on the BM1368 chip. They say it can hit around 620 GH/s, with some images showing over 700 GH/s... pretty wild!

Yo, just saw the new Avalon miners are out! They got two models now… first up is the Avalon Mini 3. This bad boy packs 66 chips with a 4-nanometer process and hits a max hash rate of 37.5 TH/s. Power usage is pretty…

Looks like we're getting a clearer picture on Bitcoin's next soft fork. OP_CSFS, OP_CTV, and OP_CAT are the options devs support. I just think we should stick to features that genuinely enhance Bitcoin as a currency.

I see OP_CAT is officially in the BIPs repo now.

True, covenants are a big deal too. OP_CAT could enforce conditions on Bitcoin outputs. Plus, using it with BitVM could simplify complex verifications.

There's a new BIP proposal called OP_CAT. Draft's by Ethan Heilman and Armin Sabouri. It’s a simple change, just 13 lines, and it deals with concatenating inputs into one output. This opcode was actually in Bitcoin's…

Just found out about this Hornet Node thing. It’s supposed to be a new Bitcoin client with a super fast UTXO database. They say it can sync the blockchain way quicker than Bitcoin Core, like 10 times faster! Makes me…

Just saw that the 2.1.0 version is out too. Added Lightning Network support and some chat improvements.

Coinjoin and payjoin are mixing methods, though. There are decentralized mixers out there like Joinmarket.

+1 to that. It’s more like a private exchange than a mixer. But I’m having issues with stability can’t even get past the startup.

Nah, I don’t think ‘mixer’ fits Bisq. It’s just a platform for peer-to-peer trading. Mixing implies centralization.

So, the Bisq 2.0.1 beta just dropped yesterday after ages of waiting.

I just found this Coinswap app and wanted to share it with you guys. Couldn't find a suitable topic before, so here we are. It has features like customizing swaps, shredding old transaction history, and more. Pretty…

It’d be awesome if Skot teamed up with Crypto Cloaks for some custom cases for the ultras. What about cooling? How hot do these chips run? Seems like a Noctua fan would do the trick.

Lol, guess what? I found the problem... No miner, no cable, no hardware was broken. I just wasn’t logged in as an admin. Once I activated su, all 8 miners fired up like a charm.

Lol, why start a new thread when I found this one already? Of the 3 USB ports, the mouse only doesn't respond on the USB 3.0 port; hard drive is in the second blue port.

I didn't want to start a new thread. This one seems to cover all CGMiner issues. I was restarting my 5 compac f miners and 2 r909s today, executed the./cgminer command, and got an error. Nothing changed on my rpi4, and…

Jameson Lopp himself said this proposal isn’t a concrete plan or immediate activation. It’s more like a theoretical backup if things go south with quantum computing. Critics seem to be missing this point.

GekkoScience just dropped a new miner called KBox. It’s got a hashrate of 22 TH/s and only uses 330 watts, so that’s like 15 watts per TH/s, which is pretty solid. It runs on bm1370 chips and comes with a linux…
