RE: Time to Test. For What it is Not Worth.29 Jan 2024 14:20
BobsS .... difficult to follow your posts as usual, so much weird brain dump to read !
.... How many machines to use to live test and prove the software changes work? Mara have 180,000 machines, they mine 1800 BTC per month, thats 100 machines for 1 BTC .... so lets say they dedicate 1800 machines to the test a mere 1% of their fleet. in 1 month that would normally be 18 coin, with QBT lets say they see 30 coins (still well under the 2.6x) ... isnt that proof enough that the software changes work? Now what if the ramp it to 10% of their fleet for a month .... would we not suddenly see them have to RNS an unusual jump in their production? This is why I dont think miners doing the testing will be "testing" with many machines or for that long .... I think what is taking the time is agreeing a contract
