Quick update: Our first Zcash block is still maturing.
It was mined at the exact point marked by the yellow arrow in the chart.
As you can see, our hashpower has only climbed since then, reaching 64.04 MS/s and continuing to rise.
This is only the beginning. ⛏️
The math says $ZFORGE has now completed work equal to 97% of the expected effort needed to mine a block. It is not a countdown, but we are right in the statistical zone where a block can land at any moment. Let’s go forge the first one.
Renting another batch of Zcash miners right now. ⛏️
The new machines should hit the pool within the next ~10 minutes, pushing our hashrate and our odds of forging the first block even higher.
It's just a matter of time now until the first block is mined!
$ZFORGE started exactly one hour ago.
In just 60 minutes, we went from zero to 10.91 MS/s of real Equihash power, all focused on forging a full Zcash block.
And we’re only getting started.
