So it's gambling?
Discussion
Yes! 🙌 like a lotto. But no state involvement. 😉
Mining is always gambling. Yes? Brains pool last year went like weeks in between blocks found when they were still block splitting. People in the pool gambles their electricity wouldine blocks.
Aka a lotto. Gambling I would relate with high stakes. Buying hashrate to pool together for 6 hours becomes more affordable depending upon your risk assessment.
Unless you want to contribute with your own miners which is great too.
It’s more of a community event with the hopes to snipe a block from the centralized assholes.
Hashrate is verified via CK Pool during the event
Community event for funsies. Got it.
Yep. Hash for the event has been selling for the last few weeks.
Charge it up and let it rip. Momentum will get more solo miners to join and in the end, will add a little fun for them too at the cost of 6 hours of FPPS or what not
Can #bitaxe participate?
Yes 🙌
If you have a Bitaxe or any other mining rig, send your hash to the block party!

Put your BTC payout address as the workername (important!)
If we mine a block, you will get your share of the reward based on hashrate contribution.
