Hamster Kombat news: updated combo cards and new Lord league

New combo cards have appeared in the popular PlayToEarn project Hamster Kombat, this time they are “Margin trading X50” from the Markets tab, “Two factor authentication” from PR&Team and “Consensus Piranha Pass” from the Special section. Be sure to upgrade them to get a bonus of 5,000,000 coins, unless of course the cost of upgrade for you does not exceed this amount. In addition, the developers have added a new league called “Lord” for those players whose coin balance exceeded 1 billion coins. If you have such an opportunity, then accumulate this number of coins, and then pump up your mining speed further. We remind you that according to past statements by the development team, the Airdrop of the $HMSTR token will be calculated from your coin mining speed, which will then be traded on exchanges. If you are still not involved in this project, we strongly recommend you give it a try; in our opinion, this is one of the most interesting successors to the sensational NotCoin.

Notcoin (NOT) will be listed on Bybit, OKX and Binance on May 16

The three largest exchanges Binance, Bybit and OKX announced the listing of the Notcoin ($NOT) token on May 16, 2024. Notcoin was the result of an ICO (Initial Coin Offering) that was made in the form of a tapping game and set a new trend in the crypto industry. As a result, the game became so viral that it gained more than 35 million users! In addition to ordinary people, this project attracted the attention of most crypto enthusiasts, thanks to an interesting roadmap and unusual distribution ideas.

What is restaking? EigenLayer, EtherFi

On September 15, 2022, the cryptocurrency Ethereum fully transitioned from Proof of Work (POW) mining (using ASICs and graphics cards) to Proof of Stake (POS) mining, where validators are required to hold 32 ETH on a server and receive rewards for it. Such a server is called a validator. Depositing one's cryptocurrency into POS mining is called staking. The profitability of Ethereum mining in 2024 is approximately 3% annually, which is relatively low by cryptocurrency standards. Everything changed in June 2023 with the introduction of the EigenLayer protocol (smart contract), which allows Ethereum validators to earn additional income almost risk-free through a mechanism called restaking (reStake). Currently, over 70% of validators use restaking services, indicating the high popularity of this approach. Next, we will attempt to explain in simple terms how the asset restaking mechanism works and why it is needed, using EigenLayer as an example.

MSN - New Jumpstart (LaunchPad) From OKX Exchange

The top crypto exchange OKX announced its next project within the framework of JumpStart (the local analogue of Launchpad from Binance).

The launch is scheduled for 04/26/2024 6:00 (UTC) or 13 hours after publication of this material. As usual, thanks to the low maximum possible staking amount (3.5 ETH and 0.3 BTC), it is possible to receive the highest possible income (usually from 1 to 6% of the staking amount in just 2 days and without any risks).

Ethena (ENA) Launchpool on Bybit

Not long ago, we talked about how Launchpool works on the Binance exchange and its advantages in terms of earning a secure income from owning BNB and FDUSD cryptocurrencies. Today, on April 2, 2024, another Launchpool on the Binance exchange has ended, where all participants were given the Ethena token (ticker ENA), which can soon be sold on the spot market, but there's another option.

Selling Notcoin

On April 1, 2024, the mining of the cryptocurrency Notcoin ended, in which anyone could participate simply by having any smartphone with the Telegram messenger installed. Thanks to this, more than 35 million people around the world became miners, and the Notcoin project itself gained tremendous popularity, comparable to the most well-known cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Cloud Mining on Kaspa

Kaspa cryptocurrency continues to remain the most profitable cryptocurrency for ASIC mining in 2024, despite the emergence of newer and more advanced devices for its extraction. Unfortunately, the entry threshold for mining the Kaspa cryptocurrency is quite high. For instance, the latest generation ASIC miner, Bitmain KS5 PRO, costs around $30,000, which is not affordable for the majority of miners. There are, of course, more affordable options from Goldshell - such as the KA-BOX priced at $1,800 with a hashrate of 1.18 TH/s, which is still not the most budget-friendly option.

Instead of purchasing a physical device, one can consider perpetual cloud mining contracts for the Kaspa cryptocurrency from the XT.com exchange, where the entry threshold for mining starts from $68 for 0.1 TH/s. This not only removes the need for maintaining your own equipment but also proves to be significantly cheaper.

ZKPolyhedra Network - a new JumpStart on OKX

JumpStart is a marketplace for new blockchain projects from the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume - OKX, similar to Binance's LaunchPad service. It's an optimal way for crypto miners, hodlers, and traders to earn extra income. This tool allows anyone to participate in the token distribution of new top-tier projects meticulously selected by the OKX exchange. To do this, you need to freeze (stake in the pool) your Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH) balance for a short period (usually 1-4 days). The main advantage of OKX's JumpStart over Binance's LaunchPad is the maximum staking limit (up to 0.3 BTC or up to 3.5 ETH), which allows for a fairer token distribution by deterring "whales," thus increasing the profitability of participation in such events. Read more about the ZKPolyhedra Network project and how to participate in JumpStart below.

HiveOS changes payment tariffs for GPU rigs

Starting from March 11, 2024, the most popular mining operating system, HiveOS, is changing payment conditions for GPU rig owners. The main differences from the previous tariffs include the introduction of differentiation based on the number of graphics cards in the rig, as well as an additional fee for using CPU in mining. Previously, as a reminder, the fee was only charged based on the number of mining rigs, regardless of the number of graphics cards used, and amounted to $3 per month for each mining rig if you had more than 4. The first 4 GPU rigs were serviced for free.

Mining Qubic under Windows using WSL2 (for those who do not working GPU mining)

In the previous article, we already talked about how to set up Qubic coin (QBIC) mining for Windows and HiveOs, as well as how to register a wallet and connect to the pool. However, most people who tried to set up Qubic mining on Windows experienced some problems, namely mining on the video card did not start. When starting the miner, a hardware detection error was displayed and mining started only on the CPU, which is exactly what happened in our case. For those who have a similar problem, we are posting an alternative guide on how to set up Qubic mining in GPU+CPU mode under Windows using the Linux Subsystem for Windows version 2 or WSL2.

Mining Team Work (TW) - BSC-20 token for Qubic mining

If you are on the topic of “profitable mining” at the beginning of 2024, then you are probably already mining Qubic, since this is one of the most profitable options for these coins (if not the most profitable at all) and is many times more profitable than what various calculators offer. Perhaps you have heard something about such a coin as TW in different telegram channels for mining and that some people mine the “mysterious” TW instead of Qubic. Let's try to figure out what kind of beast this Team Work is and how to mine it under HiveOS and Windows.

Mining Qubic (QBIC) - setting up the mining of that very “secret” coin on Windows and HiveOs

In this article we will set up Qubic coin (QBIC) mining on Windows and HiveOs. In fact, in this case, this is not even mining in the literal sense of the word, the developers of the Qubic project essentially rent your equipment to train their neural network and pay you a reward in QBIC tokens once a week in proportion to the power of your equipment and how much time during this week (that’s how long one Epoch epoch lasts in the blockchain of this network) you participated in training the neural network. Due to the fact that it is difficult to immediately determine the profitability of Qubic mining (a week-long delay in payments), the setup is not as simple as is usually the case with classical mining and the small amount of information on the Internet, as well as the high requirements for equipment, the profitability of such mining is a very high level (some even consider this coin to be “secret”), in addition, both GPU and CPU are used equally for mining. For Qubic mining, it is highly recommended to have a high-performance processor and a powerful video card, as well as a sufficient amount of RAM. Further in this article you will find information and detailed step-by-step instructions on how to start the Qubic mining process under HiveOs (GPU + CPU) and under Windows (CPU), as well as more information about the coin itself.

Coindesk has launched its own crypto index called Coindesk20

The crypto industry can already be considered a legitimate sector of the economy, and like any respectable industry, it could benefit from its own specialized index that reflects its condition, similar to how the S&P500 index does for the traditional economy. Besides the emergence of various secondary financial instruments like funds, indices serve the purpose of quickly understanding the current situation in the stock market or, in our case, the crypto market. As there is no universally accepted index for cryptocurrencies yet, a competitive battle has unfolded for this right, in which the well-known news outlet Coindesk has decided to participate by releasing its crypto index named Coindesk 20 index in January 2024.

What is Proof-of-Reserves and which cryptocurrency exchange is the most reliable?

On November 8, 2021, the cryptocurrency market began to experience a decline, which later turned into a full-fledged bearish trend. Making money in a growing market is much easier than in a falling one, so long-term downturns are often accompanied by bankruptcies of various participants. The current cycle has seen the collapse of major players such as FTX, Celsius, BlockFi, Hodlnaut, Voyager, and the depreciation of seemingly fundamentally strong projects such as Terra Luna and UST. These events unfolded recently, were noted by all market participants, caused stress, nervousness and significantly undermined confidence in the main players, in particular in funds, exchanges and the cryptocurrency industry as a whole. Many participants chose to withdraw their assets to cold wallets, anticipating the possible bankruptcy of other exchanges. Obviously, a continuation of the trend with the scam of large institutional players could easily cause a cascading panic effect, potentially ending the short history of cryptocurrencies.
