"Sorry, is anyone able to explain this latest patent development to me please?"

Ooops. Missed you. Beg Pardon.

The application was announced here,

Asic Ultraboost.

Progress, or lack of, here,

https://www.ipo.gov.uk/p-ipsum/Case/PublicationNumber/GB2611321/Documents

It has run into trouble for being a computer program and/or a business method.

In addition to the UK application they have also filed it via the PCT, Patent Cooperation Treaty,

https://register.epo.org/application?number=EP22793447&lng=en&tab=main

As you suggest it is a hardware modification and, my view, likely to be one of the things they tried to incorporate into the Intel ASIC, now bought out by Block. It is also likely to be something they want other ASIC manufacturers to incorporate into their designs.

Not sure what you mean by DOI, technical publication?, but it is based on an extension of the inventors submission for his MSc,

http://www.nicolascourtois.com/bitcoin/Optimising%20the%20SHA256%20Hashing%20Algorithm%20for%20Faster%20and%20More%20Efficient%20Bitcoin%20Mining_Rahul_Naik.pdf

Oh... DOI,

https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/ielx7/6287639/8948470/09151160.pdf?tp=&arnumber=9151160&isnumber=8948470&ref=aHR0cHM6Ly9pZWVleHBsb3JlLmllZWUub3JnL2RvY3VtZW50LzkxNTExNjA=

Apparently the seminal one is this one,

https://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1604/1604.00575.pdf

by Timo Hanke which, as I understand it was open sourced by himself and is already used in mining rigs. Bitmain has a bit of a bad reputation on this one because they have incorporated a modified version of it into their rigs without making their work available according to the original open source licence.

Timo Hanke has subsequently developed this further and also applied for a patent on his new work,

https://register.epo.org/application?number=EP14864642&lng=en&tab=main

That patent has been assigned elsewhere and, having been granted, is presently subject to actions to have it revoked.

George did a Lorna.

"Vodka night is early this week."

I did wonder if you had oiled yourself.

Excuse me Green Box Man. We are having a meaningful (?) discussion.

MethodA/MethodB

My take on things is that Method A is a derivation of Asic UltraBoost, not AI, which is already known and implemented on up to date rigs. They have a patent application in on this for their own version, the failing one, and others have filed patents on concepts similar to it. The thing is that if you assume the modern rigs have this then there may already be hardware in place that accepts pre-computed values which the newer ASICS are designed to take prior to starting their computations. If that is the case then it's no biggy and indeed would suggest the technology has superceded their original attempts which might be why they do not appear to be chasing things in respect of those applications. The World has moved on.

In the case of Method B then my take on it is that it is likely to be AI but they have not cracked SHA256 but rather found a flaw in the generation of new block headers prior to computation. However in order for it to work, I still think it does not, they have to tailor the AI model to take into account variations in the rig itself, in particular its random number generator. As such they will be providing and training a tailor made AI model, weight adjusted, to match a specific rig which might hopefully become generic to that type of rig to reduce the number of models that they have to maintain.

That may become a problem for an SaaS model but once again I go back to the suggestion that there is only a requirement to solve a block every ten minutes and as such they have time to adjust the model prior to the arrival of the next block and deliver the new predicted search range or ranges long before the next one comes along.

Right. I'm done. Dragons Den, Food and Bed.

"I'm sorry and stand corrected on that."

I guess it might help if rather than posting random text people posted a link to the text, or recorded dialog, and then posted the quote from it.

Just Saying. AGAIN!1!

"Looks like they have moved back to 22 Great James Street."

Not wishing to go Me Me Me but can we stick to commenting on the first post in this thread.

However in order to answer your poke the site is hosted on an Italian webserver and I have no idea if the Chief PR Crayon Pusher has access to it in order to make updates or whether the nomads spend any time for the the huge amounts they are being paid to do not a lot bother checking whether it is current.

We've had screaming arguments before about what is or might be current on the site but the bottom line is that they, collectively, really need to buck their ideas up and probably employ someone with knowledge of Italian and some technical competence in their field of operation to advise them.

God forbid they walk into the head offices of an American Miner and say they want to upgrade the uploadable upgrade of the upgraded loadable and get shown the door because the client does not like anchovies with extra pineapple.

Jambone will have a field day over this one. Perhaps saner people can comment according to their memory. As far as I can remember the blither now on this page,

https://quantumblockchaintechnologies.co.uk/products-services

has changed in order to make even less sense.

"Method A will be available as a SaaS (Software as a Service) client-server cloud application by uploading an upgrade to the mining rigs' firmware. The QBT server, where the Method A engine runs, receives data from the mining rig, the client, responding with parameters at the beginning of each new block computation, to reduce the number of computations required to find a winning hash."

"Method B will be available as a SaaS (Software as a Service) client-server cloud application via a module upgrade to uploading an upgrade to the mining rigs' firmware. The QBT server, where the Method B engine runs, receives data from the mining rig, the client, and responding with a search parameter, which increases the probability of finding a winning hash."

If it has changed then it looks like they are trying to provide more clarity and making a right mess of it.

"module upgrade to uploading an upgrade"

Like. Yeah Sure. Is this the FMCG PR crayon department getting in the way again?

"Method A will be available as a SaaS (Software as a Service) client-server cloud application by upload of a module to the mining rigs firmware. The client rig transmits data at the beginning of each new block to Method A on the QBT server and receives new pre-computed values to reduce the number of duplicate computations required to find a winning hash."

"Method B will be available as a SaaS (Software as a Service) client-server cloud application by upload of a module to the mining rigs firmware. The client rig transmits data at the beginning of each new block to Method B on the QBT server and receives details of a restricted range or ranges in which to search increasing the probability of finding a winning hash."

Like. For crying out loud. If I have got that close to what they think they are doing based on the ongoing train wreck that is their effort to explain it why can't they? I mean I could almost believe the above and that, apart from the other lack of anything else credible, might make the company investable to me but whilst they continue their news blackout and fail to write words in sentences that make any sense you all deserve the share price they are giving you.

You can almost see that they are using translation software to mess up the words rather than thinking about it.

Footnote: Jambone et Al. Go do one. I've pointed out their fail and given constructive suggestions as to possible replacements. You and they would not have those if I followed your prissy little demands and stopped commenting.

"The next step is to see live results, which is exactly what we are doing now……”

I know you will not because it does not suit *your agenda* and will continue to spout your misinterpretation of the sentence but try to get it into your thick head The statement, or lack of clarity thereof, gives no indication that they are seeing live results.

At best it says that it is the next step and they are working towards achieving it.

Bye.

"5 months for porting method B Garwool."

As I understand things, according to our local rune reader, both Method A and Method B have already been ported. Apparently they have also already short circuited the firmware 6 month delay problem by modifying something that was already available so, other than the buying an SaaS rig, for which they had already snaffled the money four months ago they should be good to go.

Of course their PR is so rubbish no-one has a clue what might be going on. Of course your other option might be that they are still having problems finding customers to test their magic on and the worst case to me is that their story does not really hang together very well. That could be why the PR is rubbish. I lost hope of meaningful good news ages ago and am now waiting for the excuses.

Have you seen the news from Lorna of HE1? Seriously,

https://www.lse.co.uk/media/lorna-blaisse-ceo-of-helium-one-outlines-the-path-to-commercialisation-for-their-helium-discovery-vvbqa25e9k0tnw0.html

The Girl Power is strong in this one. Both knowledgeable, confident and enthusiastic. Maybe Rita could step up to the plate for QBT because these AIM Old Duffers really are not up to it.

"Personally I think something has gone wrong with the testing. 53+ days since they confirmed live testing was happening and we have not had an update."

I have to say that Jambone, and likely others, severely face-planted themselves on that one.

"Live testing has started!"

"Oh no it hasn't"

"Yes it has. Says so here!"

"Doesn't really say that though. Does It?"

"Yes it does. Are you some sort of Stupid!"

"No it doesn't"

"Does too. Multi-ID Troll Post Upticker."

"I think it says that as well. Stop bullying Jambone. You need professional help. Go away nasty Troll"

"OK. So when do we expect the results?"

"Doesn't matter. Anyway these things take time. Everyone knows that. Shorter Multi-ID Troll."

"You said the video was posted 50 days ago. Is 50 days enough?"

"No I didn't!"

"But you did."

"Anyway these things take time. When news drops this will rocket. AimLower said so. See. Multibag!"

"Yes. You'll be sorry. Stop calling Jambone names and close your shorts before you burn. You'll be sorry."

"Let's call a Truce."

"Yes. Let's call a Truce. Multi-ID Boiler Room Trolls. I'm telling the mods. Call this helpline number. Mental Defects."

"I would have thought about a month for something statistically significant."

"OK. So where are the results?"

"Shut Up. Shut Up. Shut Up. Go Away and ramp GST."

"This is going to continue drifting down without news."

"Look. I'm the expert here (says something else that is obviously wrong). They are tweaking things."

"I thought they had tested it in the lab and just had to implement the SaaS."

"They have. They said so. They are testing live. They said so. You'll miss the boat. Trolls."

"So where are the results?"

"NDAs!1! Fully Funded until Revenue!1! Sipiem Money!!!!!"

No news on the REPO then? I thought they went hand in hand. I must be wrong again but that's what I would be more interested in given I think it will relate to the overall structure of the underlying companies.

Speaking of still waiting. Where is the RNS for the bondholders meeting? These things, well AGMs are normally done and dusted in under an hour. Champ, Champ, Champ.

"Unless people are jumping ship to join the HE1 rise right now. Seem's the timings match up."

My thoughts exactly. Catch the video from Lorna. She speaks knowledgeably and with confidence and enthusiasm and is more photogenic than George.

I'm invested in both so hopefully I am zero sum and George can get his finger out.

I am speculating along these lines because of the recent change of addresses in FG's empire of companies which, as we know in the case of some of them, base their going concern status on loans from FG which I am assuming have been supported by the REPO. MCS pulls the REPO with Eufingest taking it over. The companies at 22 St James are cast away with FG being forced to concentrate on making QBT and the remainder a success. The SP takes a wobble due to uncertainty and GSA close their short. Everyone lives happily ever after.

OOO, DYOR, EO&E, GLA.

Then again your other option would be that whilst both are joined at the hip they operate for the benefit of their respective shareholders so MCS blows up the deal and Eufingest takes over the REPO.

Looks like a shoe in...

"MCS is a Swiss company incorporated as part of a demerger of Eufingest SA (“Eufingest”). MCS and

Eufingest have the same ultimate beneficial owner."

Assuming each hand knows what the other one is doing but, just to make things exciting, it might still be binary. If MCS don't play ball then what?

Still. Positive Waves Ommmmm, Positive Waves Ommmmm, Positive Waves Ommmmm.

Never mind. RNS on bondholders meeting sometime after 10:00AM today. That's news that can be discussed. Sharpen your handbags.
