Bitmain AntMiner X3 Review

The Antminer X3, one of the most recent offerings from mining giant Bitmain, has been in news quite recently and not just because of its product features.

Being a CryptoNight miner, the Antminer X3 was generally dubbed as a “Monero miner” since that is the most popular cryptocurrency which uses the CryptoNight algorithm. Miners on the Monero network were likely overjoyed at having the latest model of a dedicated miner and grimaced due to its high price.

However, Monero ended all the joy and the worries for its miners by rolling out a hard fork which rendered ASIC mining ineffective on the network.

How Many Bitcoins are Left: What Happens When All the Bitcoins are Mined?

2Already 80% of all Bitcoins have been mined (as of January 15, 2018) so let’s see  how many Bitcoins are left. The Bitcoin blockchain was designed to only ever produce 21 million Bitcoins. Once all of these are produced and mined there won’t ever be another Bitcoin produced. This is known as controlled supply and is in direct contrast with the way national currencies are handled by central banks.

National, or fiat, currencies have an ever expanding supply. This has several reasons, one of which is that it creates inflation, which global governments encourage as a way to grow the economy. Unfortunately it also leads to the devaluation of the currencies, and in many cases this also leads to a reduction of wealth for citizens.

What is Switcheo – Complete Review

The growing number of hacking incidents against cryptocurrency exchanges and the subsequent need for stronger security measures has raised a question on the business model of these institutions. Despite dealing with blockchain technology through the cryptocurrencies that they trade every day, exchanges remain wary of using the technology within their own systems to stand against malicious cyber attacks.

The same line of thought originated the idea of decentralized exchanges (DEXs), which operate solely on blockchain technology and could remain far safer than their “centralized” counterparts.
