Transition to a New ETHW Block Explorer
In our continuous effort to provide reliable and efficient tools for our users, we have switched to a new ETHW block explorer hosted by Oklink. The previous block explorer was not performing up to our standards, affecting users’ ability to track transactions accurately. This change ensures that users can reliably monitor their payouts from the pool, enhancing transparency and trust in our mining operations.
Significant Halvings Impact Major Cryptocurrencies
This April has been a landmark month for cryptocurrency mining at 2Miners as Bitcoin Gold (BTG) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) underwent their scheduled halving events, reducing the block reward to 3.125 coins from the previous 6.25. Similar to these, ERG and KASPA have also seen reductions in their block rewards following their respective emission schedules, with ERG decreasing to 27 ERG from 30 and KASPA to 116.54 KAS from 123.47. These changes are crucial for miners to consider, and our calculator at 2CryptoCalc.com has been updated to help our community recalibrate their mining strategies accordingly.
