🧵 Libre Board - Why?
The Libre Board is a project by the @256Foundation to create a fully Open Source #Bitcoin Mining Control Board. Some folks asked: “Why do we need this?”
As the Lead Dev of the Libre Board, I’ll explain everything in this thread.
Let’s dismantle proprietary mining together.Image
Image How does the Libre Board fit into the 256 Foundation’s other projects? That form a complete open source mining stack. This hasn’t existed in years.
⚔️ The mission: Dismantle the proprietary mining empire.
🟧 The goal: Make Bitcoin + freedom tech accessible to anyone

Presenting: #BitcoinHouseHeater
Based on the #BitcoinWaterHeater, this system can fully heat House, Water and HotTub with Bitcoin Miners, and this cheaper than the original heating costs (possibly completely free) 1/13 The 4x S9 Miners produce up to 6.6 kWh heat power, are immersion cooled with Bitcool and sit in a drinks cooler for best heat insulation. The oil can be heated up to 160F/70C, enough for heating house, pool and water. 2/13

People have been asking how to prep miners for submersion. I've just added a second S9 to the #bitcoinwaterheater, so I used the opportunity to take some photos and videos on the process for 4x S9.
Step 1: disassemble the miners - yes some of them are filthy... Step 2: clean them with compressed air

#bitcoinwaterheater update: Back on track!
After a bit a downer thinking that Miner uses 2x energy, I'm happy to report that indeed most of the loss was towards heating the room and not a flaw of the system itself. 💪 TLDR: We're 69% as efficient and that's without any insulation After talking to other home miners (big thanks to @Adrian_van_Wijk) its clear that the key is to insulate everything as good as possible. Plus also reduce the amount of bitcool that is used as much as possible, as it has to be reheated first before it can heat the water.

#bitcoin Miner #Airstream heater build 🧵
Of course main question is: why even bother?
1. Heaters in RVs are propane based and can be a bit finicky (not work at all)
2. They are even on or off, creating temperature swings 3. If you are out of propane you are out of heat.
1/16 Using a #bitcoin miner gives a more constant heat (with Braiins we can control the exhaust temperature), plus it runs on electricity which at most RV Parks is included in the rent of the space (therefore "free" heating). So how it is built? 2/16
