It’s #BlockParty day!

ANYONE GONNA GET ANY SLEEP TONIGHT??????

The #BlockParty worker count is up to 117! 🚀 PARTY IS LESS THAN 2 DAYS AWAY! This is still pre-game mining. Here's more info on joining the npub1x8xa3dw79urgev8pvuzdk7uupcrvqj9cwduq0yypzzkr0m3gkwks07q3eq: If you have a Bitaxe or any other mining rig, send your hash: Stratum address: solo.ckpool.org:3333 Username: 3Gk1GfP3bHA6M2ZzK5mHdqbWN1iNsqAenH.mybtcaddress Important: Replace "mybtcaddress" with your BTC payout address # During the blockparty You get your share of the reward based on hashrate contribution # Pre-game mining Outside of the party, the miner who finds the block gets 1 BTC and everyone else gets a share of the reward based on hashrate contribution

Here’s something to know for WHEN we bring back the auctions on Upendo. The flywheel effect is wild: Early auctions go for a few hundred sats, but later ones hit 15-20k sats for the same reward slice. Pro tip: Get in early or pay the FOMO tax 📈

The #BlockParty pre-game active worker count is up to 82... But the hashrate has more than doubled today... 👀 Not bad for the @Alliance 🚀

⛏️ Here’s how it works to BYOM—Bring Your Own Miner—to the Upendo #BlockParty! First of all, the #BlockParty is coming soon. We’re still working on up-leveling the experience. This means for now the party is running with solo miners only, aka the @Upendo @Alliance The Alliance is currently contributing ~274 TH/s via 79 active workers in our CKPool. Verify this info here: https://upendo.rigly.io/pages/dashboard And here: https://solostats.ckpool.org/users/3Gk1GfP3bHA6M2ZzK5mHdqbWN1iNsqAenH If you have any kind of mining rig, send your hash to the block party! 🔸 Stratum address: solo.ckpool.org:3333 🔸 Username: 3Gk1GfP3bHA6M2ZzK5mHdqbWN1iNsqAenH 🔸 Put your BTC payout address as the workername (important!) If we mine a block during the party, you will get your share of the reward based on hashrate contribution. Outside of the party, the miner who finds the block gets 1 BTC and everyone else gets a share of the reward based on hashrate contribution. 💡 If you don’t have a miner yet, CryptoCloaks created us a fancy Alliance #Bitaxe and even dropped the price… https://www.cryptocloaks.com/product/bitaxe-gamma-601-1-2th-alliance/ There’s nothing like this #Nostr #Bitcoin mining community! LFG!

Wow, 304 of you crazy miners follow us now! Thanks 😊 for joining our hashrate cult! 🎉

We spotted a lil sale on the @Alliance #Bitaxe at @CryptoCloaks™ 👀 ...Just in time for the #BlockParty on Saturday! https://www.cryptocloaks.com/product/bitaxe-gamma-601-1-2th-alliance/

Whew! 😅 We're up to 39 workers for Saturday's #BlockParty See our @Alliance progress at CKPool: https://solostats.ckpool.org/users/3Gk1GfP3bHA6M2ZzK5mHdqbWN1iNsqAenH

38 workers in the @Alliance pool! @QW

Direct buys are on FIRE for Team Arusha & Team Isla! While we fix up the auctions on the backend, this next #BlockParty is 💯 direct buy ONLY. Anyone & everyone can get in. There’s just one thing to remember: make sure the wallet you use has the receiving capacity for your share of the block reward. If you don’t buy a lot of hashrate, you’re probably good. But if you do…Make sure you’re using a BTC address rather than a lightning address. For example, Primal has a max wallet balance of 1,000,000 sats. @primal @Bitcoin Arusha @BTC Isla @QW @MAKE SONGS LONGER @Rigly
