🚀TNA-OS Canaan is now FREE for the Avalon Nano 3s and Avalon Q TNA-OS Canaan, my custom firmware for the Avalon Nano 3s and Avalon Q, is now free for everyone to install. No per-device fee. Why the change? TNA-OS is a one-man project: every line of code, every reverse-engineering session, every bug fix and every new board port is done by me. Until now, all my firmware was given out in exchange for a coffee, as a one-off install. Honestly, that model wasn't sustainable: a single payment per device can't fund the ongoing reverse engineering, new features, bug fixes and support for new hardware like the Avalon Q. A small, transparent dev fee keeps development going for as long as the firmware runs, and it opens TNA-OS up to everyone. To everyone who bought me a coffee: thank you. 🧡 You took a chance on independent firmware when it was brand new. Your support paid for the late nights, the reverse engineering and the hardware that made this project real. Without you, TNA-OS wouldn't exist, and the Avalon Q port would never have happened. You're the reason this firmware is now free for everyone. From this version on, every device runs the same firmware with the same 2 % fee, so everyone is on equal terms and every future update reaches all of you. You were here first, and that won't be forgotten. How the 2 % dev fee works: The dev pool simply joins your normal pool rotation with a 2 % share. Your pools mine the other 98 %, by your own quotas. Your pools, quotas, failover and settings work exactly as before. The fee doesn't take one of your 8 pool slots. It's fully transparent. The dashboard shows the dev fee's live hashrate and share count, and the API reports the same, so you can check it yourself any time. Blocking the dev pool won't get you that 2 % back… it'll just tell you you're cheap 😉 Aside from the dev fee changes V4 introduces : 🔥Autotuner (beta/wip in v4): tunes every chip for max hashrate, efficiency, heater mode or overclock, within your power limit Install it with the TNA web flasher as usual: 👇 image

BTC Tech Nerd Army Aside from being a full-time BTC engineer, I'm a father to amazing children and a husband to an incredible wife. Family is the whole reason I'm in Bitcoin. So what happened with the Coldcard hack isn't a tech story to me. Families lost generational wealth. Parents who did everything "right" are sitting at kitchen tables tonight, trying to find the words to tell their partner that the family's savings are gone. That's more than lost sats — that's broken trust, and children's futures at risk. I can't undo any of it and honestly, I don't know if this is the right time to open-source anything. But sitting on a tool that might help even one family rebuild felt worse than the risk of bad timing. I just open-sourced SeedTapper — the machine I built to engrave my own family's seed plates. Air-gapped Pi 5 + fiber laser. Scan a SeedQR , verify it on screen, engrave it in titanium. No network. No disk. Nothing to trust except code you can read. It's a personal tool — rough, unaudited, but real and working. If you're rebuilding trust from zero and want your family's keys on metal you made yourself, it's yours now. Free, MIT, videos and build guide included: https://gittr.space/npub18cel6ufy7960c5632xfhlpccvdxankzkzs75ema45yxa4uhkzhqqsrulqe/seedtapper?branch=master To every one affected Stay strong! if you feel the need to talk just ping me !

GM builders Yesterday we set new hashing records 10.948TH out of 4xbm1370 asics and validated that the NerdQaxe ++ rev 5.1 circuit design cannot take more than 320w . Confirmed twice. Twice failed at the same spot - same 320w. No matter volts / amp adjustment. That's it for the foreseeable future on firmware and OC testing. Think we blown up enough hardware and collected valuable insight and data.
