Last night @grantosan and @steppsr were the first 2 people to do a BTC <> XCH Offer File. Par for the course that major events on Chia go unnoticed but a CROSS CHAIN OFFER FILE is monumental.

While your chain pretends to be decentralized, there's enough HDDs in these boxes to create 200 unique validators that can be run on as little as 15w and reward everyday people fairly. This is why I love @Evergreenminer and @chia_project

Step 1. Make everyone who buys @Evergreenminer wealthy off passive income
Step 2. True P2P apps, no intermediaries, one interface
Step 3. ?????
Step 4. Unstoppable, peer owned, global internet.

These numbers seem crazy but everything has been reinvested in building and accelerating product, both software and hardware. We are still very much a garage startup but going beyond this year. Thanks to all those who have contributed and supported.

Sold out of our first batch of 200 GPUs (25 rigs) for a new product we're cooking. It's like Tiny Box, but more user friendly.
Still early in experimenting but the first obvious use case is renting out the idle capacity. DM if you have ideas.

Chia is BitTorrent for DeFi.

0% exchange fees fully P2P, all on chain. This is just the beggining.

Can't make this shit up @bramcohen inspired Vitalik and Satoshi. If you read this thread you'll find that most of these issues are answered in Chia today. No surprise the creator of BitTorrent is probably the best suited to win in Crypto. Why no one has noticed is beyond me.
5. I should also add that the core *idea* of sharding has survived unscathed.
Blockchain 1.0: each node downloads everything, have consensus
BitTorrent: each node downloads only a few things, but no consensus
Ideal: BitTorrent-like efficiency but with blockchain-like consensus

A lot of people think Chia is like Filecoin, it's not, it's much closer to BTC but with smart contracts and far less energy usage. Oh yeah and the World Bank uses it...
How is @chia_project answering the critique that blockchains are too energy-intensive?
Chia's Proof of Space and Time consensus mechanism, allows users to employ unused hard-drive space to coordinate block production and earn rewards resulting in a less consumptive network.

Batch 2 has started shipping. This marks a night and day difference from batch 1. Including a custom operating system, a mobile app w/ a wallet, and a modular, scalable hardware design. We are just getting started.
About a year after batch 1 we are excited to be kicking off production on batch 2. We appreciate all the patience so far as we've developed a game changing product. Here's some behind the scenes from our new facility.
Grab a batch 2 starter kit today!

My growth from 80 followers to 650 in 6 months is a testment to Chia's strong community. The people who were liking before are still liking and I see more 🌱 everyday. The eagerness to spread the gospel is incredible. All while the price tanked, which should be even more telling.

In the not too distant future everyone will own their internet. There will be networks that run entirely on their own infrastructure and enable people to keep their own data local and secure. This is true freedom and liberation from the system that treats you as cattle.

I've always wanted to do consumer hardware. 1,000 devices running 24/7 around the world is really hard to pull off. But @Evergreenminer we did it in 6 months. And we're not slowing down....
1,000 Hubs (Raspi4) are running and keeping the space online. 96% of online devices are farming, a testament to our robust OS and HW.

As you watch ASICs coins get pumped and dumped by bitmain, remember Chia is ASIC resistant and tied to a global supply chain of HDDs. There is 30eib so it cannot grow much faster due to supply chain constraints, and majority of the supply is from farmers. Much better long term

Crazy 3 years
Plotted over 150pb, deployed to 1500+ people all over the world. Pushed incredible development on farming, wallet, and infra.
The whole time I don't think I farmed a single block for myself. I have no regrets. Chia HDDs in the hands of the others is better.

Folks were very worried when CNI announced they were using the pre farm as it could cause downward pressure. Honestly the biggest opportunities are in getting coins in the hands of more crypto institutions so they can have fun and use the tech, so very bullish imo.

@hoffmang and @bramcohen are some of the most incredible people I have had the pleasure of meeting. Not only do they care deeply about the problems they are solving, they have spent the past 25 years laying the groundwork for the industry.. for the people.. time to build.
And @chia_project's own @hoffmang summarizing his 2nd mainnet anniversary speech in short form last night to the #Chia community: it's really about what you will do to build the next generation of innovation and adoption on the Chia blockchain.🥳

Hardware is Epic
Hardware is hard.
That’s why Elon is by far the greatest founder of all time.
Remember — countless startups die just while trying to put stationary beige boxes on desktops. Very smart people get crushed by supply chain disruptions, or China tariffs, or lockdowns, or shipping interruptions, or regulatory delays.
Not Elon. He didn’t just survive financial crisis and coronavirus. He managed to build physical things in America while fighting the state and the laws of nature at the same time.
Somehow he managed to simultaneously build not just a car company but a rocket company. Those don’t just have “moving parts”, they are a moving whole.
The difficulty level here is insane. Hardware is completely different from software. One recall, just one serious bug, can destroy your company. If you are charging $50 for something that costs $40, and you need to recall and replace a million units, you’re usually dead.
So just one of these companies — just Tesla, or just SpaceX — would be an incredible accomplishment for anyone. Even a very intelligent and hardworking person would have to live an incredibly boring, disciplined, focused life to possibly maintain the extremely low error rate needed to profitably ship such complex products.
Not Elon. He did SpaceX and Tesla while having N children by K women. While also cofounding OpenAI and Neuralink and Boring Company. While fighting and defeating countless journalists, politicians, haters, and short sellers. And of course while buying Twitter, posting all the time, and building a following larger than almost any politician.
The better you are, the better you understand how much better Elon is. If you’re good at math you appreciate Ramanujan’s greatness. If you’re good at basketball you respect how amazing Michael Jordan was. Elon is like that, for tech. Everyone in tech understands the sport we’re playing, and he really is the greatest of all time.

I love BTC and I do think it has the ability to help push renewables, but what pisses me off the most is how many maxis can't even run mining equipment in their home. The barrier to entry to make blocks on BTC is far too high, which is 100% against decentralization.
