AsicBoost Project Discovers New Method to Shortcut Blockchain Mining

Mathematical researchers and cryptocurrency experts Dr. Timo Hanke (Mavvilab Inc.) and Sergio Demian Lerner (RootStock Labs) have developed a technology for Blockchain mining ASICs that improves chip performance by shortcutting computational steps of the mining algorithm. The technology named AsicBoost is made available under patent license. Mining chips that incorporate the technology into their design benefit from improved energy efficiency and decreased silicon cost. AsicBoost is different from all existing optimizations for mining chips. The technology is based on the discovery of high-level, algorithmic improvements that were widely believed to...
