Dear users!
Due to the fact that since the beginning of last month HashFlare LP has been suffering losses related to maintenance of equipment and electricity fees, we had to make the difficult decision of stopping the mining service of SHA-256 contracts.
This decision was a necessary measure, as otherwise we would be forced to charge our users additional maintenance fees.
Despite the current increase of the BTC/USD exchange rate, the situation on the market has not improved significantly during the month of unprofitable mining: hardware suppliers are still not able to meet halfway and lower the prices for equipment and/or its rent, and without a radical change in location of equipment, it is not currently feasible to reduce the electricity fees.
Since shutting down and re-commissioning a large quantity of equipment to different locations is a very expensive and labor-intensive process, before making any decisions about further steps, we anticipate news of a change in the current mining difficulty trend.
We would also like to inform you that in the coming days the withdrawal functionality will be improved to allow verified users to withdraw amounts less than 0.01 BTC.
We will keep you informed of any further developments, stay tuned for more news.
Respectfully,
HashFlare team
