FPGA mining is undergoing a new rise due to the ASIC miners’ struggle with token developers. Let’s check out the characteristics and types of one of these models - Blackminer F1 Mini. Now the production of machinery for mining tokens is a rapidly developing industry that has survived several development stages in a comparatively short time. One important step was to use FPGA to build hardware equipment. The first models were intended for BTC mining and existed for little time, and then ASIC mine...

For 2018, cryptocurrencies have significantly lost in value, but ASIC mining has not deceased and miners are ready to continue making transactions and receiving a reward for generating blocks. In 2018, several interesting devices with increased hash rates were released. The top-end ones can process from 28 to 76 trillion hashes per second (TH/s). Moreover, many ASIC miners can be ordered directly from the manufacturer. Best miners on SHA-256 for 2019 The main trend of ASICs last year was the tr...

When NVIDIA announced its updated Super RTX graphics cards earlier this month, the focus was on the "mid-range" RTX 2060 Super and 2070 Super devices. For just $399 and $499, the company offered significantly higher speeds than their predecessors, both models not inferior to the latest AMD Radeon. However, there is still a video card RTX 2080 Super, which is an analog of RTX 2080 at a price of $799. Based on her specs alone, the device didn't seem like a huge leap forward. And this is confirmed...

This trend has not spared the crypto industry. However, Antminer s 9 with 16-nanometer chips has been in the leaders of bitcoin mining devices for about two years, but two new models made on a more energy-efficient standard have already been created. Bitmain Antminer 28th and 23rd T15 are equipped with a 7-nanometer, can work in high-performance and eco mode. Antminer T15 and S15 features in bitcoin mining The device is not similar in appearance and settings to other miners, the company Bitman....

Innosilicon was primarily involved in the production of components for electronic tools. However, the enthusiasm triggered by the emergence of ASICS in the digital market provoked the company's management to switch to the production of a novel category of miners and it was the correct choice. As a result, Innosilicon has taken a top position among the equipment, which produces virtual assets. The unimaginable pace of growth of the corporation has been repetitively noted by analytical organizati...

The main process of mining bitcoin and other altcoins is mining. This action is not comparable to the standard printing of funds, as it has a specially laid function. In addition, almost everyone can be engaged in mining cryptocurrencies. In a more sophisticated version, mining is the activity of maintaining network health through the closure and creation of new blocks in the blockchain, using computing power. Programmers use the resources of their computers to perform certain calculations to f...

Leading manufacturer of specialized integrated circuits Bitmain publicized the two new S17 models’ release. Both s17e and T17e ASICS will be released on September 9. It is reported that the new miners have improvements that should provide increased productivity, more steady performance, and longer service life. Bitmain has developed specifications for recently announced miners. The S17e has a hashing rate of 64 TH / s and functions at 45 j / h efficiency, whereas the T17e offers a 53 TH/s hashi...

The very first devices on integrated circuits were created for bitcoin mining of other coins on the SHA-256 algorithm. The possibilities of these monsters of industrial mining frightened the team of cryptocurrency developers of so much that many blockchain networks began to take active measures to protect against ASICS. Fears were justified by the threat of attack 51% hungover all cryptomelane. In addition, the only obstacle to its implementation on the same Bitcoin is the price of the issue. ...

After bitcoin (BTC) forcefully broke through the USD 10,000 mark on Sunday, followed by a flash-crash down to USD 9,700 on Monday morning, analysts now predict that even larger gains may lie ahead for the number one digital asset. While the short-lived sell-off seen in the early hours of trading on Monday may have scared off some short-term speculators, the consensus in the community appears to be that this is normal profit-taking, potentially combined with a so-called “gap fill” on the CME futu...

George McDonaugh is the CEO and Co-Founder of KR1 plc, the London listed cryptocurrency and blockchain investment company. Facebook’s Libra, Twitter, Digital Fiat, and China Let’s look at some macro trends circling the esoteric inner core of this ongoing technological revolution. First up there’s Facebook’s Libra, which currently is a swirling mass of confusion. It’s clearly become a major part of the world’s biggest social media giant’s roadmap and they’re throwing a lot of resources at it. Fo...

New investors are the lifeblood of bitcoin (BTC). New investors rushed to buy BTC in December 2017, and it's new investors that are needed if the most popular cryptocurrency is to enjoy significant gains in 2020 and beyond. Research firm TokenInsight made this point in its annual mining industry report, writing that in "the long run, the main factor supporting the bitcoin price is the inflow of new investors." Also, Su Zhu, CEO of Singaporean hedge fund Three Arrows Capital, recently speaking of...
