ANN: BITMAIN announces Cloud Hash Platform-HASHNEST.COM
Published on September 1st, 2014,
BITMAIN is announcing the acquisition of Hsahnest.com – a cloud hash platform which was originally named Snowball Exchange (Snowball.io). Hashnest.com will operate independently to build a reliable, economical and decentralized platform that serves the worldwide mining enthusiasts and hosting operators. What’s more, this is also a step to enhance the fundamental safety of Bitcoin.
The biggest advantages of Hashnest.com are the stable earnings, low maintenance cost and the safety & integrity of capital. Hashnest.com is the largest cloud mining platform for Bitcoin in China, which was officially launched on June 1st, 2014, and the users incredibly climbed to 1,000 in less than 90 days without any marketing expenses. So far, the total hash rate infused into the platform has been over 4PH/s that is accounted for about 2% of the total network hash rate. The core team members have the rich experiences in WEB development. They are not only focusing on customers’ needs and customer experiences, but also vigorously protecting customers’ assets which is spoken highly by the evaluation test conducted by the third party white-hat network evaluators such as one of the famous providers Wooyun (wooyun.org).
The hash rate distribution of HASTNEST is based on the actual hash rate and real output. Every day, the cloud mining hashing power owners will receive the mining revenue based on the real output of their own hash rate. Users can monitor the hash rate in the mining pool from HASHNEST platform in real-time.
Cloud Hashing is the Prospective Trend for Bitcoin Mining
With the rapid growth of Bitcoin industry, the hash rate of Bitcoin keeps increasing. The cost of mining rigs is gradually getting lower as the constant R&D efforts. Let’s consider a middle-class mining fans as an example. Funding the capital and making a decision to take risks to join mining industry are the easy part. It’s more difficult for him to spend a lot of time/patience on deploying/maintaining the mining rigs and meeting the electricity needs and managing the heat. In the future, most of the mining rigs will be deployed in specialized hosting farms, enterprising and professional teams will help to search the low cost energy and maintenance for the rigs. The miners will access their miners and hashing power remotely, just like the popular VPS business model in the Internet.
However, we still need to keep decentralization in this centralization trend. It is sure harmful and dangerous to the Bitcoin industry and the eco-system if the majority of hashing power are controlled by a handful of people.
We are investing significant resources into the development of p2pool mining protocol. At present, the hash rate of HASHNEST is mined from ANTPOOL, zero (0) fees, which will soon be contributed into p2pool. The development of contributed into p2pool is almost completed, and in the final testing and deploying. The code of ANTPOOL will be open sourced, and we are confident that you will be impressed by the outstanding contribution that BITMAIN put into p2pool protocol. We have a focused team who are developing the p2pool mining protocol, and the goal is to have 80% of the total network hash rate join p2pool within next 12 months. At that time, the whole Bitcoin community will never be anxious about the potential risks of the decentralization risk associated with the pool mining model now.
The Round 1 Hash Rate Subscription starting 2nd September, 2014
UMISOO, the first Operator on HASHNEST will provide 4PH/s hashing power, and plan to start the Round 1 subscription at Beijing Time 22:00pm, 2nd September, 2014 (UCT+8:00 Time Zone). Official subscribed flat price is 0.00135 BTC/Gh/s. The Round 1 hash rate is generated by AntMiner S2 with the maintenance fee of $0.0032424/GH/s/Day.
