Genesis Mining Offers Customers a Discount to Offset Falling Bitcoin Rewards

Genesis Mining, responding to falling bitcoin mining rewards for its customers, is offering a discount to help customers withstand the current downturn, the company announced in a blog.

The company has recognized customers were not receiving expected rewards and is offering a chance to upgrade their mining contracts to Radiant contract terms with a premium discount.

The declining price of bitcoin has reduced mining outputs, causing some user contracts to mine less than required by the daily user fee, pushing them into the 60-days grace period, after which open-ended contracts terminate.

Upgrade Details

The company’s Radiant bitcoin mining upgrade price per 1 TH/s has been lowered from $285 to $180. Operating time has been changed from open ended to five years, incurring no termination. In addition, the daily maintenance fee has been cut to $0.14.

To upgrade, customers need to log into their account, click the button for “upgrade to Radiant,” choose the contracts they want to upgrade and add them to their cart.

The Radiant pricing was designed to keep customers’ hashpower operating in the most difficult market conditions.

Market Recovery Expected

Being a hashpower hosting service, Genesis Mining can only impact the infrastructure factor that contributes to mining rewards and cannot impact mining difficulty or bitcoin’s market price, the blog noted.

Genesis Mining believes the market will recover. In the meantime, it wants customers to continue to mine.

The road to mainstream adoption of blockchain technologies is a long one. Although the user experience of wallets has greatly improved since the dark days of command-line only interfaces, decentralized applications continue to struggle with onboarding non-technical users.

Jarrad Hope and Carl Bennetts, join us to discuss Status, a mobile Ethereum client which aims to turn the standard wallet experience on its head. At its core, Status is a mobile instant messenger client that leverages the Whisper protocol for secure peer-to-peer communication. Through its familiar messaging interface and elegant design, users can chat and send Ether directly in the app. As the first implementation of Ethereum’s Light Client Protocol, users may also use decentralized applications such as uPort, Gnosis and Aragon on their mobile phones. Built as an open source project, Status’ developer platform also allows developers to easily port their Dapps to the app.

Topics discussed in this episode:

  • Jarrad and Carl’s background and journey to the Ethereum space
  • Status’ vision for a friendly, mobile Dapp client
  • Status’ technical architecture
  • How Status leverages Ethereum’s Light Client and Whisper protocols
  • The Status user experience and feature set
  • Jarrad and Carl’s views on privacy and how Status fulfils their goal of privacy by default
  • The long term vision for a Status Network
  • The project’s roadmap and business model
