Workstation

Our in-house workstation comprises of servers and personal computer to access the cloud servers.

The in-house servers are designed, chosen for max airflow to keep the system cool. The GPU mining rig is over clocked as per our need and fine tuned for max efficiency and performance to generate max hashrate.

The node servers are not over clocked and kept at default clock speed for optimum performance.

We use premium quality hardware to build our setup.

Workstation 2025

Personal Desktop

Dual-boot operating system

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit Operating System

Server: Cardano Node

Our pool runs on six servers in total. That includes one block-producing core node and five relay nodes. Four relay nodes are in the cloud and one in-house bare metal relay node. In future we will shift core node from cloud to produce block in-house. We will be adding relays in different geographical locations to improve connectivity and availability.

Our approach will be hybrid in running our Cardano stake pool. With this approach we can cut down our cloud server bill to some extent. Also contributing towards decentralization of the Cardano node.
