RULES

No "FOR SALE" posts. Feel free to hawk your wares in our sister subreddit /r/BitMarket - this means no goup buys as well. As common as it is in Bitcoin Mining, it is far to risky to be carried out over reddit.

No verbal abuse. If you don't have anything nice to say, it's best not to say anything at all. Remember, we were all newbies once. Mining isn't exactly a trivial venture.

No Referral Links. No Amazon/eBay referral links. No mining pool referral links. No mining contract referral links. No referral links, period.

No Promoting New Alt Coins. If there is a new alt coin out, this is not the place to discuss or promote it. If you have questions about mining that alt coin, feel free to ask away!

No short-URLs. Nobody should have to trust you before clicking on a link. URL-shortener services serve no use on Reddit as there is nothing restricting the size of your comment string.

No begging. Do not ask for other people to mine for your address. Do not beg for donations simply for lending a helping hand.

Anybody caught violating the rules will be banned on sight. If you notice somebody abusing the subreddit rules, please message the moderators with the permalink in question.

All members of the BitcoinMining subreddit are expected to read and follow the Official Reddit Rules as well as the informal Reddiquette guidelines. Likewise, all moderators of this subreddit do follow the Modiquette.

Braiins Pool S21 Pro Firmware - Possible scam?

Hi all,

Been waiting for this release but you can only remote install if you are an RIA customer?

Anyways I was contact via the Braiins telegram channel by someone who said that you can only install it via Easydesk.

Which turns out they want you to hand over access of your PC to go in and make the changes. Something didn't ring right to me and I was not prepared to hand over control or access of my computer to someone who claimed to be a member of the Braiins team.

Has anyone else had this? Or is this true and the only way to install onto the S21 Pro ?

Advanced Bitcoin Forking, BLC

BitcoinLC(BLC) introduces an evolution in Bitcoin blockchain technology, transitioning from the traditional energy-intensive Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus to Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW). Through PoUW, BLC will repurpose blockchain miners' computational resources to complete meaningful, verifiable AI tasks—such as machine learning model training and large-scale data analysis—rather than solving cryptographic puzzles. This transformation aims to meet the growing demand for distributed AI computing while substantially reducing environmental impact and preserving core tenets of decentralization and immutability.

Poolin Scam Update?

Anyone have an update to the poolin rug pull (IOUs)? How many bull runs before they profit and then get us our money back? I saw an article about an Asian judge overseas ruling they must pay all back.

Braiins OS not booting from SD-Antminer S9

Basically the title. I did make sure to switch the jumper connector, but all I get is a red light. When I change the jumper back to normal I’m able to run the stock antminer OS. Is my control board broken? Did something happen to my jumper? I’m decent at soldering and can fix the jumper if that’s the case. I flashed using Rufus.

Newbie to bitcoin mining

I'm new to the crypto and bitcoin world, and have heard about bitcoin mining. I've read some articles on it and really not sure where to start, and if it's viable. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hosting Company Stealing Machines

I believe my hosting company is trying to steal all 141 of my machines. This company used to be incredible for hardware. When they got into hosting, things went downhill rather quickly. Hopefully, they'll see this post and rethink their decision before I oust them on Reddit.

I want to build a hosting facility where miners can make money, then mine for myself. But I'm not going to.

Nobody call me a scammer, please. I'm not proposing this, just stating what I wish I could do. But I will preface it by saying that it could be real, the numbers work. Here's the short version... Build 10MW of hosting powered by concentrated solar power. Open for pre-registration. If we got 10MW of pre-registrations, build it. You can call them whatever you want but the up front fee is $1400 per miner. In return you get 4 years of guaranteed hosting at $0.03kWh. Your $1400 would ROI in year 1 then you've got 3 more years at $0.03. I'd say if you were a founder you should be eligible for a 2 year extension at $0.04/kWh. Your $1400 is being used to build the facility, let me be plain about that. It's also being used to get you the cheapest hosting on the market. Pre-Registration runs for 30 days. If the interest is there, the fees are due on day 31. You'd have to allow 2 weeks to get everybody to pay. Then 90 days later, we plug in miners. 24/7 monitoring. VPN. Foremen software. 95% uptime guarantee. All the goodies.

Now for my question, why does proposing something like this for real piss people off so much? Everybody benefits. Your S19 95T is profitable again. Why would proposing this lead to calls of scammer and phony? I'm not proposing it because I've been called enough names for one lifetime. But I would like to know why a deal that's really, really good leads to instant rejection?

Edit: There was an interesting point made by u/StrangeEther. It would be asking people to invest without giving them equity. So add to the mix that for each slot you pay for, you get equity. You could 6480 shares of stock and each slot gets 1 share.

Question about Solo Mining & Tor Nodes

So I have an Umbrel bitcoin node running on Tor

I just picked up a BitAxe for fun, trying to do some solo mining. I installed Solo Pool on my Umbrel and it's reading data off of my bitcoin node.

My question is: if my node is on tor, and I hit the jackpot and find a block… will it propagate to the network fast enough to be accepted or is the latency with tor so high that even if I find a block, someone else will find it and propagate it before my node does?

Alternative question: am I just betraying a total lack of understanding of how blocks are propagated once a miner finds one?

What Actually Turns A Profit These Days

I found a US manufacturer that sells some ASICs and also provides (for an additional set monthly charge) housing the asic, setting up the asic, maintenance, and electricity. Being in a state with extremely high electricity (around $0.20KWhr), doing the math, this actually seems like a equitable offer for one such as myself.

So... with how sketchy crypto can be... has anyone else tried these options with their miners? Any success stories out there?

I haven't bought an asic b4 so... well I want this to be worth the $k but can't gage the risk.
