Show Notes

The month of September is dedicated to pleb miners who will not unplug nor comply. The backbone of the bitcoin network, dedicated to decentralisation and freedom.   ​On this #PlebMinerMonth episode of the pod, Jon and I speak with @BraiinsMining co-founder and CTO, Jan Capek. Jan is an embedded devices engineer and the father of the Braiins OS firmware and BOSminer software. Jan dives deep into the development of firmware and the challenges he and his development team encounter when attempting to modify machines without the assistance of the manufacturers. We cover Braiins’ (SlushPool) role in UASF and how stratum V2 enhances security, efficiency, flexibility, and decentralization of mining. We also discuss the development of the BaiinsOS+ firmware, and the advantages it can bring to a mining operator. ​We discuss the rebranding of SlushPool to Braiins Pool under the Braiins brand umbrella. We dove deep on a lot of topics in this one, the only thing we didn’t cover was “when”. ​The Braiins team has been a great partner in #PlebMinerMonth, they have sent swag for us to give away as prizes, several of their Bitcoin Mining Handbooks, as well as financial support to ship all of the gear and prizes out to the Pleb. A special thanks to Kristian Csepcsar for helping to organize everything and thank you to Jan and the rest of the Braiins team for your support of #PlebMinerMonth.     Show guest   twitter - @janbraiins twitter - @braiinsnmining   website - www.braiins.com       twitter - @MaxBitbuybit twitter - @bitbuybitpod Website - https://ungovernablemisfits.com       As always please feel free to reach out and ask me any questions.   Today you can exchange $1 for 4999 Sats (Sale ends soon.)   Thank you Foundation Devices for sponsoring the show.  Use code BITBUYBIT at check out for $10 off your purchase

if braiins adds paynyms i will definitely switch. glad to hear stratum v2 is open and not controlled by them, still felt like the lack of adoption question was mostly unanswered. appreciate Jan's transparency.
@jon
Sep 18 2022
I think he was trying to address it by saying they support the open source initiative to give others the tools to adopt stratum v2. seems like we planted the seed for paynyms though, so that was cool

Braiins vs stock software like is the difference between using a tin-can and a modern day cell phone. If I get lucky, Braiins and that S9 will keep my home a little warmer this winter :) Thanks for the podcast, I'm tuning into every episode ⚡️

Happy for you bro! Let us know how the machine works out, never used one. Had no idea the Braiins team tried to provide a firmware for that machine until the interview
