What would be future mining machines looks like after 24 years from today? This video might give some clues..

Why does everything have to be related to mining? It's a topic about leading edge computing machinery research. It's interesting in its own right, and less interesting when its reduced to the concept of mining.

EDIT: After writing this, I watched the video for 30 seconds and decided it's just as stupid as how it was presented here.

There's actually interesting stuff out there about biocomputers. You just didn't find it.

I can tell you, you just can not imagine the hash rate of that cute little USB miner in 2037 is magnitudes of order more than the total hashrate of all miners today in 2013 or 2014.

Microsoft, if still alive would have just released Windows 37, and Nintendo has a new 512 bit game console that mines bitcoins as it's screen saver, using only 16 exabytes of memory. Super Mario is no longer a plumber but a miner too.

Also, somewhere out there in the dark web, is some version of Silk Road 6.0 that has been operating for the past 2 decades having avoided the FBI and NSA and Interpol. Silk Road 1 got busted in 2013, and Silk Road 2.0 didn't last longer than a year, and 3.0 to 5.0 got caught after Captain Jack Sparrow was asking on the bitcointalk forum about some server language thing called Diamond, because Ruby sux and Emerald is no better.

John K and Dabs are regularly doing 10,000 BTC escrows between banks, as that's all they can do now is trade bitcoins since they ran out of fiat.

No one mines mars-coins because it takes 30 minutes to do a block on the shortest distance from earth. Mars is used for cold storage.

We survived 2012, Deep Impact, and Armageddon.

don't worry and hope for better I believe we must survive until 2037 and more safe and in better position

We survived the Y2K bug right? But that only affected 2 digit year computers and Windows. Linux does not have a problem until 2038, if they are still using the old 32-bit time code. Embedded OS machines might have this problem, if time is critical for them.

But everything is slowly shifting to 64-bit time... so that should not be a problem in a few years.

NTP is also going to 128-bit time, 64 bits for the second, and 64 bits for the fractions of a second. (Which I think is overkill ... but you know scientists.)

2012 was the start of an ongoing process, don't think you survived it just yet.

I will organize a million person music festival, do a thumbprint of lsd and float just like my friend has done on shrooms.  Many people will start flying out of the audience giving way for a new era of life.  No fear, no governments, just peace.

We are destined to encounter the singularity and the ascension to the fifth dimension by then.

3rd dimension, 3d figure absent of change
4th dimension, 3d figure that changes with time
5th dimension, 3d and higher dimensions controlled with mind

We'll all have brain implants and mine while we sleep using the power of our brains.
Some miners will achieve a state of transcendence through this process (samadhi) and realize they are wasting their time mining (poor ROI).

There is no more miners by 2037, resources finished....

I'm mine from my spaceship orbiting around Mars  :P

Mine's in the alpha centauri star system.  lots of resources.
