In this video, we're taking a look at what's happening across several major ASIC-minable cryptocurrencies, including Kaspa (KAS), Dash (DASH), Zcash (ZEC), Fractal Bitcoin (FB) and Bitcoin Blake2b.

Kaspa has been showing some life recently, and with hash rate coming off the network, some Kaspa ASIC miners are becoming profitable again. I take a look at miners like the Bitmain KS7 and KS5 Pro and whether the current profitability is actually enough to justify turning them back on.

Zcash has also gone on an absolutely massive run, with Zcash ASIC profitability looking extremely attractive right now. But does that mean you should rush out and buy an $8,000-$10,000 Zcash miner? I'm not convinced. We talk about the risks of FOMO, increasing network hash rate, new Z15 Pro/Z15K hardware and what could happen if more miners come online.

I'm also running more Bitcoin mining hardware, including six additional Antminer S21 XP miners. That brings my Bitcoin mining operation to around 8 PH/s currently, with plans to potentially reach 10 PH/s.

And then there's Fractal Bitcoin...

Fractal Bitcoin recently went through its first halving, cutting the block reward from 25 FB to 6.25 FB. However, some mining profitability calculators are still showing extremely high Fractal Bitcoin profitability. I take a look at why those numbers may not be accurate and whether miners moving huge amounts of hash rate toward Fractal Bitcoin could be making a mistake.

Plus, we have another update on Bitcoin Blake2b, including the recent hash rate cap on Alpha Pool and the push toward greater mining pool decentralization.

I've also got more Bitcoin Blake2b ASIC miners arriving, including Goldshell SC6 units, an SC5 Pro 2 and IBLink BM3 miners, so there will be plenty more mining tests coming soon.

Let me know what YOU think about Kaspa, Zcash, Dash, Fractal Bitcoin and Bitcoin Blake2b mining right now!

Bitfortun BS1 fake hashrate exposed: the BM1373 lottery miner shows 5.5 TH/s on the screen and dashboard, but ...the real hash rate is about 5.1 TH/s. The firmware adds +400 GH/s in code.

Huge credit to JD at Harlo Labs for finding the +400 GH/s offset in Bitfortun’s GitHub/firmware, and to Red Fox Crypto for catching the API reporting ~5,100 GH/s. I ran the BS1 on my local Public Pool (Umbrel) and the extra 400 GH/s never shows up at the pool.

In this video I show:
• Stock dashboard vs API vs pool hashrate
• The boot screen starting at 400 GH/s before the chip even ramps
• Why pool numbers fluctuate and why 3 hours is not enough to “see” 400 GH/s
• Comparison with my Bitfortun Octa / Octaxe on real open-source firmware
• What Helium Deploy said about compensation for false advertising
• Why custom Harlo Labs firmware (like they did for the Hammer P2) is the fix

This is not stolen hashrate — the chip is hashing. The display and dashboard are inflating the number. On a small lottery miner, 400 GH/s is a real % of the spec, not noise like a 3–5% swing on a big-boy Bitmain box.

If you own a Bitfortun BS1:
1. Check API / pool average, not just the screen
2. Watch for Helium Deploy’s compensation / listing update (they’ve already moved the product page toward 5.1 TH/s)
3. Wait for Harlo Labs firmware — flashing the ESP32 should be straightforward

I am not a firmware developer. I missed this on the first review because I treat small-miner variance like large ASIC variance. That was a mistake on this class of device. Every GH/s matters when people are buying “5.5 TH/s” lottery tickets.

Subscribe for the follow-up when Harlo Labs firmware drops and I flash this unit.

Today we're testing the Hammer Miner Thor P2 Bitcoin solo miner — a tiny miner with ...TWO BM1373 ASIC chips, around 10 TH/s of hashrate, and power consumption around 160 watts.

The Thor P2 sells for around $449 USD from Helium Deploy, and I've been testing multiple voltage and frequency settings to see where this little Bitcoin miner performs best.

But there's one BIG thing you need to watch out for…

I tested the Thor P2 all the way up to 11.2 TH/s at 208 watts, but the voltage regulator temperatures climbed significantly. I also tested lower-power settings to find the efficiency sweet spot, including a setting that reached 6.3 TH/s at only 86 watts.

Then things get really interesting.

I flashed the Thor P2 with a new Harlo Labs firmware and got access to a completely redesigned dashboard with ASIC tuning, RGB lighting controls, pool latency testing, diagnostics, alerts, firmware updates, and much more.

Even crazier, the firmware allows you to configure FOUR different mining pools at the same time!

I'll also compare the Thor P2 to the smaller Thor X1 and see how the new 120 mm fan affects noise.

And YES — I'm giving away a brand new Hammer Miner Thor P2!

To enter, leave a comment below telling me what you think about the Thor P2. I'll be choosing a winner in approximately 7 days.

Thanks to Helium Deploy and Harlo Labs for making this video possible!

I bought a Goldshell SC5 Pro Bitcoin miner for around $500 — and it has now generated roughly $2,300 worth of Bitcoin in just a day.

The reason? The sudden explosion surrounding BIP-110, Bitcoin Blake2B mining, and the huge demand for Blake2B hash rate.

In this video, I break down what is happening with BIP-110, the new BTCB2 market, Bitcoin Blake2B mining, MiningRigRentals demand, and why older Blake2B ASIC miners like the Goldshell SC5 Pro, SC Box, SC Light and other Siacoin miners have suddenly become extremely interesting.

We're also seeing some absolutely crazy prices for these miners on eBay, with certain Goldshell and Blake2B ASICs selling for hundreds or even thousands of dollars.

But is this sustainable?

I don't know — and that's the important part.

I'm taking a risk because my original $500 SC5 Pro has already essentially paid for itself. I've also picked up another Blake2B ASIC to see where this opportunity goes.

In this video:

• My SC5 Pro earnings
• What is happening with BIP-110 Bitcoin
• BTCB2 and the first exchange listing
• Blake2B mining and ASIC demand
• MiningRigRentals hash rate explosion
• Why rental prices are changing
• Crazy eBay prices for Blake2B miners
• My new 19 TH/s Blake2B ASIC purchase
• Mining pools and solo mining
• Why I think people are buying these miners
• Whether this mining opportunity can actually last
• Why you should NOT FOMO into these miners

As always, this is NOT financial advice. Crypto mining is extremely risky and the situation around BIP-110 is changing rapidly.

Let me know what you think about BIP-110 and how much you've made mining or renting out Blake2B hash rate!

GPU mining ...has changed dramatically, and I'm finally starting to move my GPUs away from traditional cryptocurrency mining and toward AI compute.

In this video, I'm taking 170HX GPUs out of my GP Riser R8 GPU mining servers and moving them into Gigabyte servers for a new private AI inference client. After running these systems for months, it's crazy to see how the same hardware that was originally purchased for GPU mining is now being requested for AI workloads.

I also talk about the 48 GPUs I purchased for $7,200, upgrading my server hardware, my Xeon Gold 6152 CPUs, RAM requirements, my remaining Gigabyte servers, and what I might eventually do with all of these GP Riser R8 cases.

GPU mining may not currently make financial sense, but AI compute has created an entirely different opportunity for this hardware.

I'll be documenting the entire transition from cryptocurrency mining to AI GPU rentals, so make sure to subscribe if you want to follow along.

Within roughly 12 hours, I had recovered the entire purchase price by renting out the miner through Mining Rig Rentals. TheGoldshell SC5 Pro normally mines Siacoin using the Blake2B algorithm, but the recent BIP-110 activity has created an incredible amount of demand for Blake2B hash rate.

In this video, I break down what happened, how I rented my Goldshell SC5 Pro, how much Bitcoin I earned, why people are suddenly paying huge amounts for Blake2B hash rate, and whether this situation is actually sustainable.

I also look at the growing BIP 110 mining ecosystem, current Blake2B mining pools, solo mining, Bitcoin node setup, and why I haven't switched my SC5 Pro over to BIP 110 mining yet.

Most importantly, DON'T FOMO into buying one of these miners just because of what happened to me. I bought mine for $500 before the current demand exploded, and we have no idea how long these rental prices will last.

This was one of the fastest ROI events I've ever experienced with a mining machine.
