Happy Holidays from On Bitcoin!
What a year it has been for Bitcoin.
I first want to thank you for being part of the On Bitcoin community. I’m so grateful you choose to subscribe and follow along. I hope you continue to find more great insights and information to help you on your Bitcoin journey.
I’m continuing work on a number of projects including setting up an instance of Galloy Bitcoin Bank, launching another Lighting node and testing the LuxOS firmware. Been able to increase hashrate on S19JPro+ 20% especially in the cold winter temps up here in Canada. Really impressed with this firmware and it’s simplicity.
Here are a few updates to share with you.
Have a happy holiday!

Mining continues to grow
The Bitcoin network continues to grow at a steady rate. We started the year with 235EH/s and looks like we will end the year with over 540EH/s a 305EH/s increase.
With BTC over $40,000 USD and the low cost of ASIC miners, mining is profitable again for a lot of people plugged in this year.
