Welcome to the Future
Night tariffs: how are you structuring the schedule?
Been thinking about this all week. I killed a hashboard learning hotair rework and consider it tuition. Anyone measuring something different?
Genuine question first: the energy argument lands better with a greenhouse tour than a statistic. Numbers welcome.
Genuine question first: firmware updates over USB first, OTA only after you trust the supply. Learned the hard way. What's everyone else seeing?
Been thinking about this all week. my seed backup plan finally moved from paper to steel this month. Sleep improved. What's your setup?
Same here honestly. renting hashrate for ETC taught me more in 2 hours than a month of reading.
Underrated topic. solo mining ALPH is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket. Convince me otherwise.
Not sure I buy that. solo mining XMR is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket. Numbers welcome.
For what it's worth, pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top.
Same here honestly. a small test rental before committing has saved me twice now — watch the shares land at your own pool first.
Hot take incoming: I killed a hashboard learning hotair rework and consider it tuition. Am I missing something obvious?
Hot take incoming: I moved everything to Stratum v2 and the difference was bigger than any chip tweak. Am I missing something obvious?
