Here are our view of the miners integration to the Playkey cloud.
Stage 1: Pro Miners. (3-6 months)
We plan to start with professional miners and companies that can contribute significant amount of servers (from 100 GPU cards). In US, South Korea and Singapore. On this stage we plan to find all the bugs and develop SLA (service level agreement) that can be used by home miners and semi-pro miners. The main goal, is to provide gamer with the best quality, so miners shall apply special requirements, like broadband quality, hardware specification, traction rating.
We have already signed contracts with GigaWatt (http://giga-watt.com ) and Gcore (http://Gcore.lu). Other companies are also welcome.
Stage 2: Home Miners. (6-9 months)
On this stage, we will make Playkey mining available to everyone, who has a powerful gaming computer or a mining farm, that can be used for launching games in good quality. Home miners have to fulfil the SLA (service level agreement), that they will be able to provide gamers with fluent streaming and high game fps (frames per second).
It's good that two companies signed a contract, this means that when they calculated their business plan they found out that it will be more profitable to dedicate their hash power to playkey instead of mining a GPU mineable crypto
It’s especially good to see that there are big miner interested in this project because they need a lot of them Good to see that Playkey already has contracts for this.
As far as I understand, those two companies are just service providers, so they wouldn't care about whether its profitable to dedicate hashpower to Playkey - all they would care about is that Playkey would be paying them a certain amount of money for each hashpower they are providing.
I see, I'm looking at giga-watt website and they sell electric power. So the important thing will be to see how many home miners will join. Or maybe ASIC miners can join the party as well? But big companies using ASICs mine bitcoin
