Hey Everyone,
You have all been waiting for today’s announcement. I have to admit, it can be fun watching everyone guess what these will bring.
Today we launch a new line of budget-friendly Hashlets and unveil our latest initiative to strengthen our HashTalk community!
But first, there’s some important news I want to share with Hashlet owners.
Let me start by saying that Hashlet has been an enormous success. We’ve sold more Hashlets in less time than we ever predicted.
Within one week, Hashlet became the most popular miner in the world!
Since we’ve sold (far!) more in the opening two weeks than we ever expected to, we’ve decided to officially discontinue the original Hashlet.
Don’t worry, all existing owners will still keep your Hashlets (more on you in a sec), it’s just that we can’t continue to sustainably offer Hashlet as we were. You can only build data centers so fast...
Replacing the original hashlet is the Hashlet Prime. Primes are just like the original Hashlet, except for one important difference. They will automatically gain all the features of all future Hashlet models we release, forever.
See. we have major plans in store for Hashlet. I can’t overstate it.
The enormous success of the launch has given us an unbelieveable amount of scale, which of course we’re utilizing to make Hashlet even better. We’ll be offering new models, new features, and… there might even be plans for new algorithms, custom pools, even renting wink
We’ve only scratched the surface. And since we’ve been so successful so quickly, these new features are going to come faster than ever!
And so any time a new, advanced Hashlet model comes out, Prime Hashlets will automatically gain its features, first.
See, Prime Hashlets will always be the most valuable Hashlets. They will do everything all other Hashlet do, and more. Think of them as Queens on a chess board (ignoring knights, duh). That’s what I’m talking about.
Simply put, there will be no Hashlet better than a Hashlet Prime.
So what does that mean for you current Hashlet owners. Well, I’m proud to announce that...
All Existing Hashlets will be upgraded to Hashlet Prime!
You all deserve it!
Listen to me very carefully. I know what a chance you took to be the first in line to buy Hashlets. Yes, Hashlets are the best miners in the world. You know that now, but you didn’t know it then. You took a chance and you still believed.
That means more to me than you know. You guys truly are the reason we exist.
So there is no question in my mind at all. I want to grandfather you all into our future plans for Hashlet and I want to blow your mind away with what we’re going to offer.
So stay tuned!
And now onto the new lineup of cost-conscious Hashlets...
Introducing The Hashlet Solo!
Hashlet Solos are “pool specific” Hashlets. Their payouts are tied strictly the pool they are designed for. They’re the perfect miner for people who want to “set it and forget it” since you won’t have to worry about changing pools. And of course, since it’s a Hashlet, there are zero pool fees, forever.
And since Hashlet Solos are so much less expensive than Hashlet Primes, they have roughly the same ROI period.
But this is where things really get interesting. Hashlet Solos are also built specifically for those of you with a competitive streak.
Want to change pools? No problem. Very soon we’ll make an announcement after we release a major new feature in ZenCloud. Trading between Hashlet owners!
The miner marketplace in ZenMiner. What this means for Hashlet Solo owners is you have even more opportunity for earnings. Now you’ll be able to make make trades between Hashlet Solo models based on pool performance fluctuations over time. So, if trading for pools as they go up and trading against them out as they go down is your cup of tea, then Hashlet Solo is great for you. It’s also for you high-risk rollers.
Hashlet Solos will start at $16.95
In addition to Hashlet Solo, I would like to touch on our latest community strengthening initiative:
We will be switching HashTalk to a New Forum Platform.
You asked to move away from Discourse, now it’s happening.
Tomorrow (sunday) we’re launching the brand-new Hashtalk. We’re excited since the new platform will let us add new features to make this the strongest community it can be.
Look for features like:
- Signatures
- Reputation Management
- Private live chat
- Ability to “upvote” posts
But more importantly, look for the ability to…
Earn free Hashlets by helping the community!
I want to start out by saying how excited I’ve been for this. I’ve wanted this feature for a very long time.
Some of you may remember way back when I asked a question on bitcointalk:
“What makes a miner skilled?”
I got all kinds of answers as responses poured in, but there’s one answer that I’ll never forget to the day I die.
“The most skilled miners help the community.”
That got me really thinking. And you know what, I feel like the most helpful people in this community are rarely rewarded. And even worse, they’re often not even noticed half the time. It’s such a shame.
So let’s change that!
I am proud to say that we will be integrating Hashpoints into HashTalk!
You’ll now be able to collect HashPoints by earning upvotes from your fellow miners, answering questions, and overall strengthening this community.
You heard that right, from this day forward, you don’t have to spend money to mine! By being a helpful resource to miners you can pay for your new equipment and even cover your maintenance fees!
What’s the ROI on a free miner?
This excites me so much because community and cooperation is what this whole industry should be about. Helping out one another to so we can build something bigger than we could ourselves! That was the dream I had when I started HashTalk. And I feel this is the next giant leap forward towards that goal..
So if you’re running a little low on cash, don’t sweat it. Just offer a helping hand and spread your knowledge here. Now when you make a difference in this community, you’ll be rewarded for it like you should be.
One helpful post can earn you an entire Hashlet!
Here is the next step
When our dev team goes live with the new platform, you’ll be invited to create a new password and reactivate your account within the new Hashtalk forum system. Once you do that, you should have access to all your old threads, posts, etc.
Please just be patient during this time as this is a colossal undertaking we’re doing, porting over to an entirely new database and adding a host of custom features on top of it.
Thank you for understanding.
Also, real quick, I want to touch on a few ZenCloud enhancements!
We’ve made purchasing even easier buy adding all Hashlets to the top of the miners page!
We added a champions page! So you can now see the “big dogs”
There will now be a pop up page when we make an update showing the changes
We changed Payout round to approximate figure
Fixes
- Intermittent issues where balances were not reflecting the correct amount
Thanks again for your support. Onward, as we change history!
