The expression “stay hungry, stay foolish”, which is also the personal motto of Haipo Yang, the founder of ViaBTC, exactly represents people’s first impression of this man: a very thoughtful person with a profound knowledge reserve, but modest as a fool. As we know, it is the boss who determines the temperament of his company. In previous user surveys, most users said that ViaBTC is “a low-profile, pragmatic, rigorous and professional company with commitment.”

As a leading global crypto mining pool, ViaBTC boasts an elite R&D team. With its strong technical capabilities, ViaBTC has optimized the transmission process of the BTC network through multiple steps to ensure stabler mining benefits for its miners.

Where will Twitter go after it was taken over by a Twitter KOL with hundreds of millions of followers?

According to the market law, under the current bear market cycle, the unsatisfactory cryptocurrency price and the soaring energy price make payback time light years away, and there should be a significant reduce in hashing power. However, recent increases in difficulty may indicate that Bitcoin miners are not so much concerned about the short-term price rise or fall any more.

This is not the first time cryptocurrency plummeted. During the ten-odd years since cryptocurrencies were invented, the market has gone through many ups and downs across multiple market cycles, which justifies a golden investment strategy: speculate in a bull market, and mine in a bear market. For investors, the biggest advantage of crypto mining is that their crypto holdings will keep growing during the process, and the value of the cryptos they have now will multiply once the bear market is over. As they say, the best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago; the second-best time is now.

Suppose there’s a currency payment system that processes millions of transactions every day. It would be terrifying if each transaction is transparent and traceable.

It seems that this year’s crypto market has run out of stories. As the prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum continue to fluctuate, the market seems to have returned to what it used to be in 2018. The difference between today’s market and what it was in 2018 is that the Fed, determined to turn off the faucet, has been pushing hard to raise interest rates. According to the data released by U.S. authorities in September, the numbers have indeed started to fall, but the prices of goods remain at a high level, and the general public still suffers from stagflation.

At the 2022 Mainnet Conference, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin strongly urged blockchains like Dogecoin and Zcash that wish to improve their scalability to follow suit and shift to PoS.

Many analysts said that Ethereum's next upgrade, the "Shanghai upgrade", may turn the tide, which is also one of the most noteworthy Ethereum hard fork upgrades after the "London upgrade". In the "London Upgrade", Ethereum introduced the revolutionary EIP-1559 protocol to improve the original transaction fee mechanism and effectively reduce the inflation rate of Ethereum through the burning mechanism. So what changes will the much-anticipated "Shanghai upgrade" bring? Can it help Ethereum make a comeback?

The increase in difficulty has reduced the number of coins mined by miners during the same period of time. Now the declining price of ETC has also made some newcomers who want to try GPU mining undecided. Against this backdrop, is ETC still worth mining?

Reactions to the Merge vary significantly. Unlike people who joined the YouTube live stream party hosted by the Ethereum Foundation or recorded this wonderful moment on SNS platforms like Twitter, Ethereum miners, concerned with their financial interests, are looking for the next mining destination.

ViaBTC Pool, together with BitRock, is providing integrated one-stop solutions that cover performance improvement of mining machines, mining facility deployment, mining facility O&M, as well as the connection and management of hashrates. With the superior matching services provided by ViaBTC and BitRock, costs borne by miners will be further cut down.

To help miners switch to ETC mining, ViaBTC has partnered up with Bitdeer, a top mining service provider, and offered a major benefit: a free trial of the MiningOS firmware. All ViaBTC users can benefit from the six-month free trial of MiningOS, which will help miners minimize costs and maximize returns.

In the blockchain space, each cryptocurrency was born with a mission. For instance, as stated in its white paper, Bitcoin carries the mission of building an all-new cash system, and Ethereum’s mission is to evolve into a distributed “world computer”. When it comes to mission, Monero, a long-standing crypto created in 2014, strives to become a secure, private, and untraceable cryptocurrency.

To seek further growth, BCH ABC built a professional team of promotion and operation to gain more market influence. On July 1, 2021, BCH ABC officially launched eCash, a new brand with a clearer positioning, and its native token is called XEC. The tokens were distributed at the 1 BCHA=1,000,000 XEC ratio, which marks the birth of eCash.

Since 2022 kicked off, the crypto market has suffered one blow after another. As Bitcoin and Ethereum crashed into the ground, the whole market has taken a plunge. In the meantime, facing the grossly depreciated collaterals, crypto lending platforms forced users to add more margins. As a result, tons of users started to withdraw assets from lending platforms. Subsequently, some platforms went under, others laid off staff to survive, and even Celsius failed to stay intact.

According to the latest survey released by CouponFollow, Litecoin has become the third most popular cryptocurrency among consumers when it comes to the desired rewards of crypto credit cards. Additionally, it is only slightly less popular than Ethereum (41%), the No. 2 crypto on the list. As one of the most popular cryptos out there, Litecoin has earned the favor of many miners.

As the ETH price went up, the proportion of Ethereum’s market cap to the entire crypto market cap has risen from 14.88% to 18.47%. Considering the leading position of Ethereum in the crypto space, the Merge is good news for the whole market.

In the past 20 years, the traditional business model of online content has created a wide range of problems, covering the inappropriate distribution of revenue, the ownership of content, as well as the vicious competition that has gone rampant. In the meantime, the Web 3 creator ecosystem, which is based on blockchains, underlying NFT economies, or platform-built monetary systems, has taken shape, which could be a great solution to these problems.
