10 years from now Proto Rig will still be running.
The hashboards will have changed.
The firmware will have changed.
The world around Bitcoin will have changed.
The mission? Still the same. ⛏️
Less waste. Less downtime. More Bitcoin.

Large-scale mining isn’t just about deploying next-gen machines; it’s about designing systems that can scale efficiently while minimizing downtime and costs. Some thoughts on modular design and the future of mining: mining.build/blog/the-end-of…

#Bitcoin mining is evolving.
Core Scientific and @protomining are defining the next generation of mining technology, hardware, and infrastructure.
$CORZ CDO @russellcann and CTO Larry Kom recently took the stage alongside Proto Team at @blocks Solution Architect @perryhtee and @TXblockchain_'s Founder and President @lee_bratcher. You can watch the full @NABSummit panel here: youtube.com/watch?v=m_w9PjXU…
Got a chance to discuss the mining landscape with @Core_Scientific and the exciting stuff we are doing at @protomining def worth a listen.
EXCLUSIVE: Block’s New ASIC Miner With Core Scientific and Proto
On today’s show, we have an exclusive with @protomining and @Core_Scientific, who recently announced a collaboration on a new ASIC chip design. Core Scientific–one of the largest Bitcoin miners in the world–will be buying 15 EH/s of chips to make custom units. Meanwhile, Proto will be working on selling more chips and a custom form factor of its own.

Earlier today at the @NABSummit. @perryhtee (Proto), @russellcann, Larry Kom (@Core_Scientific), and moderator @lee_bratcher (@TXblockchain_) shared game-changing innovations in mining:
🔧 Replaceable hashboards cut downtime.
💰 Modular designs lower long-term costs.
🏗️ Miner chassis become part of the data center.
Proto’s hardware meets Core Scientific’s operational expertise. Smarter, sustainable mining is here.
Here’s what we’ve been up to
3nm ✅
15 Exahashes ✅
One of the largest Hashrate agreements✅
New upgradable platform ✅
Boom!!

Hits right in the feels
The fourth #Bitcoin halving is almost here.
And a proper thank you is in order to the ones impacted the most.
So, to the miners…thank you for moving money forward.
Slow and steady wins the race…3nm incoming. #btc mining.build/latest-updates-…
What do you guys think? Overview of our #btc firmware. Let us know your thoughts.

Thank you @lee_bratcher for putting on an amazing summit. One of the best I’ve attended, in terms of people and discussions. Was a privilege to share the stage with @taylorbmonnig and later with @OGBTC and @GridlessCompute
Great panel today @NABSummit with @taylorbmonnig talking all things ASICs alongside @lee_bratcher, @perryhtee, Sanjay Gupta and Ashu Swami.
