The new mining machine is capable of a maximum output of 5 Th/s with a power consumption of 400 watts. A special feature of the machine is that the users can choose between two power levels and can easily set the machine to run at maximum hashrate or at 70% hashrate (3.5 Th/s) with 65% power consumption (260 W).

Only the interior has changed

The new miner has an unchanged exterior and weight. The increase in performance (KD Box Pro’s 2.6 Th/s performance was increased by Goldshell to 5 Th/s in KD Box II) did not involve a large increase in noise level, its sound output is ~35 dB, so thanks to both of its size and its noise emission, it remains an ideal choice for home use.

About Kadena coin

Kadena works on the work of proof principle, which means it can be classified as a classical mineable coin. The Kadena coin can be mined with machines specially designed to mine Kadena algorihm.
Kadena provides a definitive solution to the blockchain trilemma of maximizing the triple function of decentralization, scalability, and security to make it work almost perfectly. This problem has been solved by the developers by applying a new, specific blockchain technology, blockchain interlacing. This allows the blockchain to achieve almost industrial performance, capable of 480,000 transactions per second.

This increase in more than 20% in one week, which many see as the end of the bear market. The price increase was accompanied by a fairly high market capitalization of almost 25%.

But what effect does Bitcoin’s exchange rate have on other cryptocurrencies? To what extent has the market capitalization of cryptocurrencies been rearranged by the rise in the exchange rate?

Hot and Cold wallets

Crypto wallets can be grouped in two ways. One way to compare is whether are they connected to the Internet or not. Accordingly, we are talking about hot or online and cold or offline wallets.

Hot wallets are that crypto wallets, where the private key is stored on a device that has an internet connection. These are less secure than cold wallets, but they are very convenient for frequent use. Hot wallets can be classified as desktop wallets, mobile wallets and for example exchange wallets.

Unlike hot wallets, cold wallets are not connected to the internet. In other words, the private key(s) of the given wallet is stored on a device, which is not connected to the internet. Examples of such devices are Ledger and paper-based wallets.

Software, hardware, or paper-based wallets

According to the other comparison method, we can talk about software, hardware, or paper-based wallets. The software wallets are the most common ones – in this case, we access our cryptocurrencies using a software.

Hardware wallets are physical wallets, we physically have them, for example Ledger, which is like a pendrive and we can store our cryptocurrency on it offline.

Paper wallets are actually printed QR codes, with the help of which we reach our wallets.

In summary, if you want to keep your crypto safe in the long term, choose one of the cold wallets, and if you use your currencies often, then the hot wallets are right for you. Whichever solution you choose, make sure you never give your private key to others.
