Jack Dorsey’s Block is calling on members of the public to give feedback concerning the features they want in its open-source silicon-based bitcoin mining hardware system under development.
Nearly two years after announcing plans to launch its bitcoin mining hardware, Jack Dorsey’s Block says it has been hard at work building a team to explore its bitcoin mining project. Finally, it has now kicked off the process of building its own BTC mining semiconductor chips.
Its application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) miners will lay the foundation for a complete suite of bitcoin mining products that will accelerate innovation in the industry, foster energy efficiency and green energy adoption in mining, while also decentralizing the supply of this critical hardware, increase accessibility, and improve the bitcoin mining user experience.
Block’s mining development kit (MDK) will have a robust and reliable industrial-grade bitcoin mining hash board compatible with its custom-built control board and third-party controllers like Raspberry Pi.
Block urges web3 developers, bitcoin miners, and enthusiasts to give feedback on the specific features they’d love to see in its MDK
Block’s bitcoin (BTC) revenue from its Cash App business stood at $1.83 billion in Q4, representing a 7% decrease compared to the previous year.
