Two contests, two free Bitcoin miners, one Hashboard App //

We launched @hashboardapp a few weeks ago, and now we’re working hard to get the word out.

We’re giving everyone a seven-day trial of all the premium membership features, and we’re also giving someone the chance to win a Bitaxe Touch Turbo touchscreen Bitcoin miner.

But that’s not all…there’s still five days left to enter our last contest for a highly customized Bitaxe Gamma. Two contests, two chances to win, one app that we think is pretty cool.

Check out the app, win some cool stuff!

@KarmaCpu @CryptoCloaks First I accidentally ignite the race to the bottom with Avalon Q price and now I’m destroying friendship. Gonna go back to working on fan mods and shut up for rest of the day.

[Ryan Blass (Karpuz Mining) @karpuzmining]

@CryptoCloaks @KarmaCpu You were at 1,499 when I dropped the 1,399 sale, btw. So that’s not exactly me chasing your low prices. If you’re going to call bullshit on something, at least be right about it.

[Ryan Blass (Karpuz Mining) @karpuzmining]

@CryptoCloaks @KarmaCpu So what you’re saying is that you fully intended to price your Q *one dollar* less than mine…one dollar…and that I’m the asshole for merely suggesting I kicked off the price wars?

[Ryan Blass (Karpuz Mining) @karpuzmining]

Yes, I did. I had a 24-hour sale just to help a supplier move some overstock units, and everyone reacted and tried to undercut me which resulted in the Q being 15% less expensive and essentially wiped out the margins entirely. All because nobody wanted to let me sell a few inexpensive Q’s for one day.

@MuskMiners Going to be really interesting to see how this one plays out. I’d love to see it 10x so the guys running ‘em get paid.

Mining world needs some glorious windfall action.

@Public_Pool_BTC

Respect for what you built. Public Pool filled a real gap when good solo pool options were limited, and running it yourself on repurposed hardware shows the kind of commitment the community appreciates.

Solo mining has grown since then. With tens of thousands of Bitaxe devices (and similar miners such as NerdQAxe++) now relying on AxeOS or similar firmware defaults, the choice of primary pool has more impact than it used to.

Public Pool’s single-server setup in one location worked for its era, but it was never designed for miners spread across the world. A single point of presence means higher latency for many users and creates an obvious availability risk. Public Pool has recorded 19 outage events totaling more than 17 hours of downtime in 2026 alone. The default pool that ships with AxeOS/NerdQAxe++ and serves many thousands of new miners deserves more than running on ewaste out of one location.

AtlasPool was built specifically to address these limitations at global scale. It operates one full instance (including both ckpool and a Bitcoin node) at each of nine locations across six continents. BGP anycast on the https://t.co/aDBFWOCqvN hostname automatically directs each miner to the closest healthy location. This design delivers consistently low latency and has maintained 100% uptime since launch through geographic distribution and automatic failover.

On the fee: AtlasPool charges 1.5% only on blocks found. This fee does not cover my operating costs. I am not running AtlasPool to generate profit. The fee simply helps offset the expense of maintaining a globally distributed, redundant infrastructure. My goal is to make the best possible solo mining pool available to the community, not to monetize it.

Running your own node and stratum server is one approach, and we support miners who want to go that route. At the same time, a large part of the solo mining community wants a dependable hosted option that delivers strong performance and reliability without requiring them to operate their own infrastructure. AtlasPool was built for those users. We make it easy to connect and also support people who prefer to self-host.

The community has outgrown what a single-server pool can reliably deliver at worldwide scale. With more miners depending on defaults in tools like AxeOS, it makes sense to evaluate whether the current default still serves users best, or whether a purpose-built global option would be a better fit for most people.

I think AtlasPool represents that next step. I would encourage the AxeOS dev team and anyone choosing a primary pool to take a look at what we have built: https://t.co/RYVbZFwY4o

We are all trying to strengthen solo mining. I am open to feedback and happy to discuss how we can improve the experience for Bitaxe/NerdQAxe++ miners together.
