Just because a miner is an ASIC Miner does not mean that it is automatically the most profitable device available. Application-specific integrated circuits are made with a specific process technology, and the process technology is usually referred to by the smallest feature size of any of the transistors on the integrated circuit. One of the […]
For a given mining algorithm, there is definitely a technology progression. We can look back on the technology that was used to mine Bitcoin and see how it first started off as Central Processing Unit (CPU) mining, then it moved to Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) mining, then Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), and then Application […]
In quality cryptocurrency projects like Bitcoin there is an upward price progression. More importantly, there is a price cycle that oscillates around the price progression. Plotted against time, a cycle with an upward progression looks like a sine wave with an ever increasing average value, which is what we see so far with the Bitcoin […]
