Gardin explains the ideas behind the Method A and Method B enhancements, likening them to "boosters" for the crypto mining process.
Gardin explains the ideas behind the Method A and Method B enhancements, likening them to "boosters" for the crypto mining process. He says Method A seamlessly integrates with Intel-based mining rigs, thanks to their cooperation, while Method B has required intricate reverse engineering.
Gardin says that his current focus is on business development, liaising with major miners in North America, and fine-tuning product engineering.
He expects that the next major milestone for the company will be to implement Method B in partnership with a functioning mining rig.
