Code, crypto, and compliance.

I build fintech backoffice systems for a living: loan ops, payment flows, and the ECSP licence work that comes with them. The rest of the week goes to renting hashrate on NiceHash, carrying a camera around, and writing notes when something sticks.

Why I stopped Easy Mining

I still buy hashrate on the NiceHash marketplace. EasyMining is the part I stopped, because there is no way to audit the work. wenblockniceha.sh is deprecated. Rigly on ckpool is where I hunt blocks now.
