• Main topic of new posts: The thread discusses Monetarium's shift from CPU‑only mining to supporting GPU mining and the associated sharp increase in network difficulty, as well as a user’s question about how to start mining on GPU.

• Key news/updates:

  • GPU mining is now active on the Monetarium network; difficulty rose from ~12 to over 800 in four days.
  • Blocks found by GPU miners participate in the buyback program under the same conditions as CPU blocks (address Ms, blocks 33 501–42 140, promo‑page terms).
  • The claim about the CPU share of hashrate is no longer correct; the current share can be viewed in the explorer: https://monetarium.online/hashrate-shares
  • The size of the buyback campaign is fixed (8 640 blocks); changes in hashrate only affect which addresses receive those blocks.
  • Links to the full position on Telegram and the promo‑page terms: https://t.me/monetarium_world/26 and https://monetarium.world/promo

• Issues/complaints: No specific complaints; user dong8768 only asks how to start GPU mining.

• Overall tone: Neutral‑positive — information about expanded mining capabilities is presented factually, without negative judgments.

Main topic of new posts: The first GPU‑mining software for Monetarium (VAR) has been released – a proprietary stratum pool and an OpenCL miner, enabling mining on both CPU and GPU without intermediaries.

Key news/updates:

  • Release of the monetarium-stratum repository with a solo stratum pool that runs alongside a personal node.
  • The package includes an OpenCL GPU miner (single BLAKE3 core, without vendor‑specific optimization) and a CPU miner.
  • The node creates the block template; the pool only distributes work, and solved blocks are immediately returned to the network and credited to the miner’s address.
  • When connecting to a third‑party stratum server, rewards go to its operator, so running the pool locally is recommended.
  • The software is in early stage; the team is looking for testers rather than announcing a finished product.

Issues/complaints: none.

Overall tone: positive/neutral – announcement of an early‑stage software version with a call for testing.

  • For the week ending Sep 16 2026: 1 899 blocks mined, 18 active miners, project node hashrate share 19.6 % (see explorer link).
  • Campaign progress: 142 of 8 640 blocks already used in buyback.
  • The Monetarium team stated they have no formal partnership program; proposals can be sent to dev@monetarium.world.

Main topic of new posts: Discussion of miner reward distribution (50 % of the block) and the security of Monetarium’s hybrid PoW/PoS network, accompanied by a weekly mining statistics release.

Key news/updates:

  • Miners receive 50 % of the block reward (in Decred on the same codebase — only 1 %).
  • Protection against a 51 % attack is provided by requiring votes from at least three of five tickets per block, not just reward distribution.
  • Weekly statistics (week ending Sep 23 2026): 2 381 blocks mined, 28 active miner addresses, the largest address controls 15.2 % of blocks.
  • Current mining campaign: 2 523 of 8 640 blocks already mined, will finish at block 42 140.

Issues/complaints: No mentions of problems or scam accusations.

Overall tone: Positive/neutral – participants approve the reward model and discuss technical details without criticism.
