March 2025 Work Progress: ZEPH Protocol Audit, Uncertain BTG Future
BTC payment disorder for Bitcoin Gold (BTG) mining
We have previously provided Bitcoin (BTC) payment for mining bitcoin gold (BTG) promoted through Gate.IO. However, as Gate.io finished the BTG deposit, BTC payments for BTG mining were disabled.
In the future, all payments for BTG mining will be made only in BTG.
important: All BTC payments that are suspended have been successfully handled.

This change has a direct impact on mining compensation. Use 2Cryptocalc to re -evaluate mining profitability.
