The
Guild of Technomancers, concerned
about the environmental impact of cryptomining operations, started
working on a solution for sustainable cryptomining hardware. Through
years of research and development, the guild ultimately concluded
that it would require the development of a
magi-tech Application
Specific Integrated Circuit designed specifically for cryptomining
without the consumption of extreme amounts of electrical power. This
chip, known as the MASIC or “Magical ASIC” is created with a
careful balancing act of frost and shock magic runes etched into the
silicon chip itself. The shock
runes
power the chip while the frost
runes
keep it cool.
With
the MASIC, anyone can mine cryptocurrency without having to consume
extreme amounts of energy as the
shock magic allows
the chip to run without the need for electricity once
connected to a computer and powered on. The frost magic eliminates
the need for large fans to keep the chips cool which also saves even
more energy. You can basically mine crypto with a MASIC miner and get
a faster return on investment then you would with a traditional ASIC
miner.
Once
the MASIC was released to the public domain along with the methods to
fabricate them, these chips quickly became the standard for
cryptomining hardware due to their superior energy efficiency. And
even though they are not exactly cheap, they pay for themselves in
record time. In many nations, the MASIC is now the only type of
mining hardware that is legal due to environmental regulations.
Thanks
to the MASIC, Proof of Work has become the standard consensus
mechanism for cryptocurrencies again due to its mathematical proof of
security.
Usage:
If your party has a home base, they can buy a few to set up a mining rig and generate a passive income stream.
