Oddbean new post about login | logout Does @OCEAN accept miners/assign work to a device with ultra-low hashrate like a nerdminer or a Blockstream Jade? #asknostr Cc @jack @Luke Dashjr nostr:note120qqsma3fzsfuhkmperfuw3sutkc6z5tj4ynz5ljcyxcdpqwf92svajp4r
For the same amount of money, you could get a s19 or something with significantly better hash rate on ebay. Ive used jade as a miner before, as far as i know, they only connect to a very specific blockstream site. I might be totally wrong though.
As much as I’d love to heat our apartment with a bunch of S9s, the electricity cost here is something like 20 cents per kWh where I live, and my wife would not tolerate the noise lol Looking at the NM as an educational (and fun/novelty) experience 🤙
We don't check for it, but it would only abuse pool resources. Those devices can't mine. Not even in 2009 with a time machine
Understood as far as the relative futility of the hashpower. When you say abuse pool resources, do you mean that it would unfairly draw from the pool rewards by “contributing” (with no chance of actually helping anyone), or that from a logistics, tech, or administrative view it would just create more headaches? New to mining here (and waiting on some real rigs) so I appreciate the insight 🙏
It would just add to our bandwidth/etc usage. Likely would never find a single share
Makes sense - thanks. Will wait for real machines 🫡
