Inactivity Leak ethereum 2 With the approach of the transition of the Ethereum cryptocurrency to POS consensus instead of POW mining, the issue of the stable operation of the future Beacon Chain POS network is becoming more and more acute. The main protection mechanisms are fines for an idle node, Slashing - exclusion from the network of the validator for violating the rules of operation and leakage of inactivity. If most of the network participants are familiar with the first two punishments for validators, then not many crypto enthusiasts have heard about the punishment called inactivity leak.

hpet timer shutdown mining hashrate All modern computers are equipped with a high-precision timer called HPET (High Precision Event Timer), which is necessary to synchronize the operation of various equipment (sound cards, video card, processor) in multimedia tasks: video games, sound and video editors, audio and video players. The HPET timer is also known as the multimedia timer. By default, the HPET timer is enabled on all computers for compatibility, but in fact in modern computers it only increases delays in work, which affects the number of frames per second and their number for rare events in games, as well as in other resource-intensive applications, including in cryptocurrency mining.

The reason for the hashrate drop in mining on Nvidia Pascal video cards (GTX 1070, GTX 1080, GTX 1080 Ti)

gtx1070 tlb low hashrate Nvidia's Pascal generation video cards (GTX 1000) in 2016 became an excellent alternative to AMD video cards in mining, although until that moment, AMD products were practically the only option for mining in terms of their characteristics. However, by 2019, users who bought GTX 1070, GTX 1080 and GTX 1080 Ti video cards for mining Ethereum cryptocurrency began to notice a gradual decrease in the hash rate of their video cards with each increase in the DAG file of the Ethereum cryptocurrency. So, for example, the hashrate of the Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070 8Gb video card in 2017 when mining ETH was 30-32MH/s, and by 2022 this video card can hardly give its owner 25MH/s. For comparison, the AMD video card of those years, the Radeon RX 480, can still show 30Mh / s or more, as in 2016, and in terms of technical characteristics, the AMD video card is noticeably weaker than the GTX 1070. Because of what the hashrate decreases only for Nvidia video cards, we will tell later in this article.

bybit crypto exchange without verification Cryptocurrency exchanges by 2022 have become full-fledged financial services that are in no way inferior in their capabilities to traditional banking and exchange services. And the widespread use of cryptocurrencies among the population has led to the fact that registration on a crypto exchange now requires full identity verification, just like opening a regular bank account. What brings crypto exchanges even closer to traditional financial institutions. Which cannot but upset many crypto enthusiasts who want to stick to anonymity, one of the original features of cryptocurrencies, which they are trying to deprive with the help of verification on cryptocurrency exchanges and services. In order to maintain anonymity and the possibility of exchanging various crypto assets, one has to put up with increased risks of losing cryptocurrencies or buying stolen cryptocurrencies with the risk of being blacklisted when using exchangers and little-known crypto exchanges.

mining ether on nvidia graphics cards

Not so long ago the developers of Ethereum cryptocurrency mining software were able to completely bypass the LHR (Lite Hash Rate) version 1 and 2 mining protection. LHR version 3 (RTX 3050 and RTX 3080 12Gb video cards) was cracked by 90%. Recall that originally, as conceived by Nvidia, the LHR blocker was supposed to limit the speed of mining by 50%. On May 24, 2022, Nvidia retaliated and brought back the low hash rate for all video cards with LHR technology. It's true that Nvidia's new mining restrictions can easily be circumvented.

What is selfish mining?

selfish cryptocurrency mining The Proof-of-Work (POW) miner reward system, like any system, has its advantages and disadvantages. The main disadvantage of POW is the possibility of a 51% attack, i.e. anyone who gets more than 50% of the power of the network will be able to take full control of this blockchain. This is the most well-known and critical POW consensus vulnerability, but there are other less critical vulnerabilities. We will talk about one of these vulnerabilities called selfish mining in this article.
