The June Edition

A Big Month for Megawatt!

May was a productive month for Megawatt. After travelling for the Bitcoin Conference and the Governor’s bill signing, we were able to return to the fundamentals. New MicroBT Whatsminers arriving means lots of activity on site, and we got to spend time with the open-source mining community at Telehash #4. Network conditions have remained volatile, and May was an important time to hunker down and build.

New Curtailment Logic Available

You know we prefer to build in-house whenever possible. That’s why we run our own curtailment logic, and continuous improvement of our software has started to yield better rates. So successful has our new approach been to curtailment that we’re now licensing our software to other miners.

Our system not only adjust miner activity based on changing grid conditions, it’s also able to factor anticipated energy costs. It’s thanks to the practical application of our experience that we’ve been able to navigate increasingly volatile power markets.

Director of Operations Wayne Highfield explained the curtailment logic in more detail on the 256 Foundation’s Telehash #4 in May.

New Videos from Our Site Technicians

Showing our sites is part of our commitment to transparency and driving Bitcoin adoption. Also we think they’re beautiful.

Now you can check out day-to-day life on the site thanks to the new videos our technicians are posting.

Maybe you’ll even see one of your machines!

Taking Deposits on M70 Whatsminers

Last month, we announced the newest M70 units are ready for purchase.

With the first few units arriving for installation and testing, you can still put a deposit on our introductory price.

At 14.5 W/TH, these machines are designed for efficiency, anticipating the next leg up in hash rate with the same reliability that MicroBT has always brought to the table.

Be sure to get your deposit in soon — we can’t guarantee availability will last long after delivery.

M60S+ and M60S++ Available for Same-Day Activation

Don’t forget: we still have M60S+ and M60S++ variants ready for same-day deployment. These machines still perform well at up to 15.5 J/TH, and will continue to earn as we upgrade.

As a lower cost option, they offer a great chance to start or upgrade your fleet. And since they’re already on-site, you can start mining the same day you buy them.

As always, we’re here to answer any questions you may have. Reach out any time.

Stratum V2 Hits 75% Milestone - Open source Bitcoin mining protocols are proving their popularity as Stratum V2, which governs how miners communicate with pools, says that over 75% of the network is now running their protocol.

US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) - The SBR is back on the legislative agenda after an amended version of the bill was submitted last month. While this new version has removed the goal of the US Government accumulating 1,000,000 BTC, it has introduced a lockup period for BTC held.
