enrique11 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Great news for anyone mining Siacoin in the future via Obelisk miners: https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/obelisk-releases-code-to-fork-siacoin-to-remove-bitmains-asic-miner-ability/ Quote The Obelisk startup is relatively new to the mining industry, but they have a new protocol in place that could revolutionize how hardware is used. They recently unveiled a new code on their system that would help eliminate the need for Bitmain’s chip-based mining hardware. The new code would let those in charge of the mining to exclude the devices that made ASIC mining possible, so it would no longer be compatible with the updated software. In a statement, Obelisk noted, “This will give the sia community the ability to fork and could invalidate all non-Obelisk siacoin ASIC miners on the forked chain.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
