Business Developments
Over the past few months, the Company has continued its discussions with the major Bitcoin sector companies, which are mainly located in North America. These discussions have now reached a level where the Company is looking to provide live mining test demonstrations, as soon as any one of the Methods is available for real-time mining, as confirmed by recent meetings in the US at Mining Disrupt 2024 in Miami and Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville.
The Company believes the recent decision to migrate onto the ESP-miner operating system, running on ESP32-S3 Espressif MCU and using Bm1366 ASIC chips, is expected to achieve successful real-time mining testing of methods A, B and C.
Once this technical milestone has been completed, the Company expects to commence conversations with the small number of companies who have developed their own versions of the mining operating system, firmware and drivers, that operate the current crop of commercial mining rigs. The plan is to port QBT’s client version of its Methods to the miners’ proprietary software environments, providing access to a potential market of millions of currently operational mining rigs.
Francesco Gardin, CEO and Executive Chairman of Quantum Blockchain Technologies commented: “Most of the current and recent efforts of the Company are focused on the porting of the Methods on to commercial hardware mining platforms.
“The skill set for the porting projects is completely different from AI know-how used in the design and development of the three Methods by our R&D teams.
“A very experienced software engineer from Milan University joined the core software engineers’ group nine months ago, and we feel this group now has all the necessary skills to successfully undertake the porting task to a real-time Bitcoin mining environment.
“This complex technical step of the process is the precondition for deploying QBT’s technology and entering into pragmatic partnership and commercial discussions with the major players of the sector, all of whom are very aware of QBT’s technology and all of whom are just waiting for real-time.
“The decision to switch to the ESP-miner operating system, running on ESP32-S3 Espressif MCU and using Bm1366 ASIC chips, will definitely accelerate moving in this direction.”
