Chainspotting.co: A Powerful New Bitcoin Web App
Chainspotting.co is a new web app that focuses on real-time blockchain data. The site features a number of modules that allow non-programmers to have access to in-depth information regarding their portfolios (collections of addresses). Chainspotting allows users to track the balances of their addresses, track unconfirmed transactions, and run queries on a specific set of addresses, all in real time. The power of this tool comes with the versatility of the software. Before Chainspotting, anyone looking for in-depth information regarding a specific portfolio would need programming....

The top (left) and bottom (right) of the Block Erupter USB. Bitcoin mining has evolved rapidly over the past few years. From CPUs, to GPUs, to FPGAs, to ASICs, the most up-to-date and powerful miners change constantly. When the first ASIC miners were shipped to customers in early 2013, miners became incredibly more powerful than before. Among the first ASIC miners announced was the Block Erupter USB: a small USB (Universal Serial Bus) that mines for Bitcoins. A History. Block Erupter USBs were first announced by friedcat on May 4th, 2013, on BitcoinTalk.org. They were small, portable, yet....
You may have heard that it is possible to mine cryptocurrencies. Mining is a process of offering resources to a cryptocurrency network in exchange for a reward. Each network requires different types of resources and can offer different rewards based on network rules. For example, Bitcoin and Ethereum networks use computational resources from miners. This effort requires very powerful energy intensive graphic processors (GPU) to compete for recurring rewards. Other mining projects such as PKT Cash can be mined using bandwidth and a computer processor (CPU), such as a computer, server or....

Ethereum is still forming a sideway movement. The situation is heating up. The resolution is likely to come in a form of a powerful impulse. Which direction will Ethereum choose? The length of the current flat is a result of a rebound towards the medium-term upward trend taking place. Consequently, after this flat ends, a medium-term movement will follow. Market dynamics tell us that it should be a powerful impulse. For that impulse to become the most likely to begin, several conditions have to be fulfilled. As long as Etherum’s price is rebounding from key resistance lines, the flat will....
Is the bitcoin network the most powerful distributed computing system -- hence, the most powerful computer, period -- on Earth? Maybe, although the designation comes marked with a few asterisks. According to Bitcoin Charts, which tracks activity on the distributed global network of bitcoin mining computers, the network has achieved a hashrate (the rate at which new blocks of bitcoins are mined) of 1039.79 petaflops, or more than 1 exaflops. As The Genesis Block points out, that's more than eight times the performance level of the world's 500 most powerful supercomputers. (A few notes on....
