HashNet v0.3 — Public Beta

Dead miners.
Living intelligence.

Hasher reprograms SHA-256 ASICs from obsolete Bitcoin rigs into computational primitives for neural inference. Your Antminer S2 doesn't go to landfill — it joins a distributed ML cluster.

How a hash engine learns to think.

ASIC as primitive

SHA-256 cores are coerced into matrix-multiply approximations via lookup-mapped boolean circuits — turning hash pipelines into low-precision tensor units.

Federated routing

A coordinator shards transformer layers across heterogeneous miners. Latency-aware routing keeps inference local to your subnet.

Zero-waste compute

Every Antminer kept online displaces fresh silicon. The HashNet runs on what the world already built.

/ hardware

Got a miner gathering dust?

If it hashed Bitcoin, it can run inference. The HashNet firmware flashes over USB and reframes the SHA-226 pipeline as a low-precision tensor engine — no hardware mods, no soldering, no compromise.
