Just wanted to say, we really appreciate all your support pimps, through the market ups and downs. We are dedicated to pushing through this, as have before, and finding every way possible to keep you profitable. If anyone wants to talk about strategies, or has anything to contribute, or wants to talk about their farm, or wants advice or help, please reach out to me personally on the pimp discord, or email us.

If you have many pimp keys and would prefer to roll it into one volume key so you can clone rigs, please contact us so we can assist you with this.

If you have a miner, coin, algo, or want us to include something in the pimpup OTA updates or in a release image, or you think you would like to have a custom image for your farm, we can do this.

If you would like assistance managing your farm, reach out.

If you just want to find out what we have planned for 2019, come talk, we will make time for you.

Thanks always,

Hi Miners,

Every Wednesday the PIMP team has a public voice chat on our Discord server. We invite you to come join us for crypto related discussion and product news and questions. It is a pretty informal chat; just miners working hard to keep everyone mining.

The chat is on our Discord server https://discord.gg/grCbFsA at 3PM Pacific/6PM Eastern US time, and we invite anyone to come and chat with us about our products and crypto in general. The call is attended by all our developers and beta testers, so there is lots of expertise on hand for your questions.

The prices are going back up and we have a lot of interest in PiMP going on and mining in general! Hooray! The miner developers are pushing updates every few days and we are going to be putting our pimpup OTA updates out more often. We have a lot of work in progress to share with you, but we also want to chat with you about coins and what we think is going to be hot for 2019! There's a lot of opinions about Ethereum and the use of smart contracts and their great uses, as well as big investor money coming in, so we will be talking about that as always!

There's also some big progress with pimp 2.9 and even pimp 3.0 so come get the scoop on that, as well as letting us know what we should be putting into miner.farm 3, since the launch went so smoothly and is humming along on the new pimp server fleet!

Last week the call went over an hour and a half and we still have more great tax tips from Brash, the PiMP Crypto Accountant, and he is available for questions. Don't wait until last minute - accountants need winter work too!

Our community is our favorite aspect of this project. We would love to see you there!

Hey miners, we have another big pimpup with more miner updates. As you can see, we have the most miners built-in with examples. If there is a miner that you would like to see included, or a pool or coin or algorithm, please notify us so we can get your favorites included in the OS!  Our intent is to provide support for as many coins, miners, and algos as possible, and as quickly as possible. You will start to see more momentum with our miner updates soon. With PiMP 3.0 it will be completely automated.

That being said we are just days away from launching the new miner.farm v3! It's been a long year working on this one and we have been dying to show it to you.

Thank you for your support! We continue to work around the clock to make the best mining platforms available. By miners, for miners since 2012!

Hey miners! Thanks for joining us in the clubhouse call last night. Coins are coming back! As they always do. And Mining will always be around, because we support these coins networks by validating transactions. Happy to do it! And the free heat is just a bonus in this winter weather.

This weeks topics are fairly obvious - MINER.FARM V3! Now in beta, still fine tuning all the goodies for release, it looks good for release in the next week. Also, the black friday crypto sale and how it is affecting your mining strategies, and whatever else is on your minds.

We would love to see you there!

Hey Miners,

Hoping all our US friends had a great Thanksgiving, and scored some Black Friday deals on GPUs

Miner.farm V3 release is imminent; beta testing has not turned up any show stoppers, and I have been wrapping up the small details and last minute items over the last few days. It has taken a solid year of work, but the results are amazing, and I cannot wait to get it to you!

Thank you for your support,
Lily
getpimp.org | miner.farm

Hello miners,

It's been 6.5 years since we started this PiMP thing, and a few before that making and supporting other mining software like BAMT and Poolmanager.

Just wanted to take the time this Thanksgiving to outline our appreciation for all of you who support our project:

The miner developers, who have never ending piles of requests for new algorithms, and are always trying to optimize for more hashrate. Talking directly to the hardware is a special job and we appreciate you folks who make the miners we rely on.

The coin and algorithm developers, who design the very currencies we are after, and have to make wallets for many platforms, as well as provide blockchain services, exchange listings, and more.

The miners, who dedicate their time and equipment to supporting the coin networks, always tinkering and tweaking, and holding us to a higher standard.

Our competitors, who keep us on our toes and make us want to be the best we can be.

And of course, my teams. The PiMP OS development team, the beta testing team, and the regulars in our chat. Day in and day out we talk mining and swap test results and fix problems. I consider you my friends.

It is a joy working with each one of you and hope that you get a little family and friend time today, regroup and think about the great things you will do tomorrow.

Your friend,

Hey AMD miners! In case you missed it, we just added some new AMD cryptonight miners to our collection. Finally, good alternatives to Claymore!

In particular, TeamRedMiner has done a great job; definitely one of the fastest AMD miners currently for this algo, and the sgminer API they used is solid and well established in our products, which translates to better monitoring and management for you.

It can be installed on existing PIMP OS rigs with just 2 easy commands: `pimpup` and `pimp --add 1201`

Dont have PIMP OS yet? What are you waiting for? Get the details on our site https://getpimp.org

Thank you for your support,
