This is our 37th post in the Infinity Hash Weekly Update series for Apr 15, 2024.
This week we added a few new miners, finished some translations and a lot of background work on the voting function, as well as attending Santorini Halving Party 2024. Mining profits for Infinity Hash went up with some downtime and share price for IHS going down even though Bitcoin was stable. Please make sure to read this weekly update as it contains important information on an upcoming community vote!
You can always get a full overview of past charts and numbers on the Weekly Updates page.

Charts for week 14 to week 15, 2024
Due to the charts always going back 3 months, we decided to just put them in one chart gallery with everything missing since the last post and up to our latest data.
Dashboard and Feature Updates
Apart from a few bug fixes there have been no major dashboard upgrades this week, with all development work focused on the back-end right now.
Maintenance and Downtime
In the two weeks of this report we had two noteworthy downtime events:
- On April third, about 24% of the projects miners where offline due to an equipment relocation
- On April eighth, about 12% of the projects miners where offline due to an internet outage
The total uptime for the two weeks was 97.43%.
Announcements
New miners arriving before the halving
Due to the upcoming Halving, we would like to point out that we are expecting the delivery of further miners in the next few days, which have already been paid for by the community in recent weeks. This will massively increase the hashrate per Infinity Hash share. We expect about 70 to 90 GH/s per share in the next few days. Below is a picture of the hashrate development since the start of the project (calendar weeks on the X-axis). We also added other available lifetime charts of the project so you can get a good bird’s-eye overview of the state of the project.
Removal of the margin on the electricity price
As a further measure to prepare for the Halving, we have decided to eliminate our margin on the electricity price. As a result, the electricity price of the project will fall from USD 0.057 / kWh to USD 0.049 / kWh from April 16, which corresponds to a reduction of around 14% and will increase the profitability of the project. We will secure the company’s income in the future through optional additional services around the project.
First community vote coming soon
Since we activated the temporary 20% fee on the Community Marketplace, we have received many good suggestions from the community to prevent abuse of the affiliate system.
In the background, we have been developing the voting system (similar to a DAO in a DeFi project). We should be ready with the system in time for Halving to let the community decide on one of the working solutions. The respective number of shares held counts as the weighting basis for the vote, which can be carried out in the dashboard.
So that everyone can start thinking, here are the options for the first adjustment, which we can further refine in future votes if the community so wishes:
- Bonus shares locked + 10% marketplace fee to reinvest: The 10% bonus shares are locked (not sell-able since they are a gift paid for by the company) AND the fee in the marketplace is reduced to 10% (fee is added to the reinvest wallet to buy more miners for the project)
- 20% marketplace fee to reinvest (keep as is): The marketplace fee will stay at 20% (fee is added to the reinvest wallet to buy more miners for the project)
- Bonus shares locked + 20% marketplace fee to reinvest: The 10% bonus shares are locked (not sell-able since they are a gift paid for by the company) AND the fee in the marketplace stays at 20% (fee is added to the reinvest wallet to buy more miners for the project)
Please do not forget that this is about an initial solution and finding a direction. Based on the result, we can introduce and implement further improvements.
German website and dashboard translations
We have decided to deactivate the German translations of the website, blog and dashboard for the time being. For regulatory reasons, they will not be available until further notice. They will be reactivated as soon as the appropriate conditions are met. Please understand that it is important for us to comply with local legislation and always prioritize consumer protection over corporate profits.
Bank transfers and deposit options
Over the last 2 weeks we have been working hard to improve the deposit methods in general and the options for faster, cheaper bank transfers in particular. We look forward to being able to offer bank transfers and other payment methods again soon and that the fees will be greatly reduced.
Update: The new bank transfers are active and working! We are now offering EUR, GBP, USD and TRY with native transfers (for example to an EU-bank for EUR, to a British bank account for GBP etc.). Fees should be greatly reduced in comparison to before.
Farm Updates
The farm updates of the last two weeks where all focused on finishing hosting capabilities before the last batches of miners arrive before the halving.
Farm updates in week 14, 2024
Preparing the area for new containers
To ensure better ground stability, the entire area for the new miners was strewn with gravel and crushed stone and leveled. The layer of gravel also helps to prevent dust being stirred up in the dry months and allows water and snowmelt to seep away better.
Installing slats and temperature zones
In the container, which was partially completed last week, slats, network technology and a separating layer for the hot and cold zones were added.
Finishing outside work on the living container
A concrete floor was poured in the living container after the relocation and work inside the container was completed.
Installation of a new batch of miners and catching a thieve
A batch of new miners after installation in the newly completed container. In the pictures you can see the improved setup with PDUs. We also caught a thief stealing a snack bag.
Farm updates in week 15, 2024
Filter installation and final clean up
After installing the first miners in the first new container last week, filters have now been added to the air intake side, the last slats have been attached and the container has been thoroughly cleaned one last time.
Preparing another container for hosting
Then the next new container arrived. In the pictures below you can see the delivery, the cutting out of the sides and the cutting out of the future door.
Final living container upgrades
Final improvements were also installed in the Living Container and normal operations started. The first important improvement was the installation of a drinking water tank (including heating to prevent freezing in winter). New screens and network technology for real-time monitoring of the growing number of miners were also installed.
Adding protective canopies
Canopies were prepared for the new containers to provide additional protection in extreme weather (heavy snow and rain pushed in from the side by the wind). In the third picture (from this winter) you can see the finished version on an existing container.
Links and Outlook
Infinity Hash Articles and Socials
This week we were featured on the German crypto news portal BTC-Echo with the following article: “So profitierst du von dezentralem Bitcoin Mining” (How to profit from decentralized Bitcoin mining).
Updated transparency reports
We have made the following changes to make our transparency reports easier to understand, easier to read and more visually pleasing:
- A more detailed table of newly added miners for each month
- A complete overview of the device types currently in use, including their status and how many of them the project has in service
- Additional information on which miners were added in which month in the complete miner list
Outlook and Mining Forecast
Due to the reduction in electricity prices and the newly added miners, as well as the expected deliveries, we assume that the mining rewards should increase significantly again until the halving and that we will be considerably less affected by the halving itself than expected.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank our entire community once again for their trust and hope that the difficulty adjustment expected some time after the Halving will encourage us all to celebrate.
Weather conditions
The current weather conditions at the mining farm are: Clear. Chilly. Current temperatures at 2.65°C / 36.77°F provide good cooling conditions with the weather forecast showing a downward trend in temperatures. This should result in stable profits.
