Best Bitcoin Mining Hosting Companies (2026): Who to Trust With Your Miner

Bitcoin's Red Team Hit the Outreach Wall
Bitcoin's Red Team logged 1,029 high-or-critical findings across 425 projects in 55 hours. Now comes the hard part: reproducing the bugs and reaching the maintainers.

The BIP-110 chain found its second block but is 7 blocks behind the main chain.

.@simpleminingio mined block 961,634 using @ocean_mining’s DATUM protocol. This block extended the bitcoin main chain as it did not signal support for BIP 110 consensus rules. While many members of Ocean’s team support BIP 110, they created a protocol to let their customers decide what they think is best. This should be lauded.

BIP-110 hit its mandatory signaling period today at block 961,632. When Ocean mined a non-signaling block, BIP-110 nodes rejected it and forked off the main chain. With less than 3% miner support, the BIP-110 chain now trails the canonical chain with virtually no hashrate behind it.

BIP-110 nodes just forked off the main chain after rejecting a non-signaling block at height 961,632.

25 blocks until BIP-110 mandatory signaling.
Developer uses the unique patterns on quail eggshells to generate random numbers for bitcoin private keys.

Bitcoin ETFs just had their best week of inflows (~$1B) since April. IBIT, FBTC, and others saw inflows every single day this week.

.@JesslovesMJK analyzed the FDA's briefing document for Moderna's mRNA-1010 flu injectable (mFlusiva) and found there was no saline placebo group in the trial. The comparator group got an existing flu vaccine instead. Deaths looked comparable at ~0.3% in both groups, but the mRNA-1010 group actually had 2.6x more deaths than the comparator. The FDA calls this a "numerical imbalance." Compared to a hypothetical saline placebo, "the likelihood of dying in either vaccine group would be approximately 30 times higher than in the saline placebo group." "You cannot compare an existing potentially problematic vaccine to a novel one and call the former a placebo. You mask the harms, which appears to be the intention, by doing so." "We're talking about death here, people. You can't recover from that. You can recover from flu, however."

Corporate America is on pace for the biggest earnings beat EVER recorded. S&P 500 companies are beating EPS estimates by +29.2%. The 5-year average is +7.0%. That's 4.2x the historical norm. Blended net margin hit 16.9%. All time high. Strip out Alphabet's $98B unrealized equity gain and Amazon's $53B Anthropic gain and earnings growth is STILL +32.0% YoY. We are in the middle of the largest investment boom in history. And it's just getting started.

A firmware flaw in one of Bitcoin's most popular hardware wallets just led to $130M+ in stolen BTC. 210,000+ BTC moved out of long-term holder wallets. Spot ETFs have seen inflows every single day. Price has not made a new low.
