What is Stratum? Learn how Bitcoin ASIC miners receive jobs from mining pools, submit shares, use worker names and vardiff, and how Stratum V2 upgrades mining networking.
What is SNMP? Learn how Bitcoin mining sites use SNMP to monitor switches, PDUs, UPS systems, environmental sensors, and the network infrastructure around ASIC fleets.
Bitmain and Canaan go head-to-head across air, hydro, and immersion cooling. We compare the Antminer S21 XP, S23 XP Hyd., S21 XP Imm., and Avalon A16XP, A1566HA, A1566I by TH/s, J/TH and PH/s per MW.
MicroBT and Canaan go head-to-head across air, hydro, and immersion cooling. We compare each company’s strongest current ASIC by hashrate, J/TH, and theoretical PH/s per MW.
Bitcoin wallets do not hold one account balance on-chain. They control UTXOs—unspent transaction outputs—that explain change, fees, coin selection and privacy.
MARA sold 23,093 BTC for about $1.6 billion in the first half of 2026 while cutting debt and expanding toward power generation, AI infrastructure and critical IT.
Quantum Blockchain Technologies received a U.S. patent for ASIC Ultra Boost, a SHA-256 message-scheduling technique designed to reduce redundant computations inside Bitcoin mining hardware.
Simple Mining acquired an energized 8 MW Iowa Bitcoin mining site from Sphere 3D, bringing its Iowa platform to nearly 160 MW and highlighting why interconnected power is becoming the mining industry’s most durable asset.
A new Renewable Energy study finds Bitcoin mining’s renewable advantage is concentrated in low- and negative-price wind and solar hours, making flexible shutdowns more important than simply running on clean power.
Bitmain’s Antminer S23e U2H delivers 865 TH/s at 10 J/TH in a 2U hydro-cooled rack chassis, shifting the Bitcoin ASIC race from pure efficiency toward hashrate density.
