By the end of 2024, Bitcoin price is expected to reach $100,000! The crypto bull market is back

By the end of 2024, Bitcoin price is expected to reach $100,000! The crypto bull market is back. Bitcoin, the top cryptocurrency, could hit $100,000 by the end of 2024, according to a report by Jeff Kendrick, head of digital asset research at Standard Chartered Bank. By the end of 2024, we could see Bitcoin (BTC) reaching the $100,000 level , as we believe the much-hyped "crypto winter" is finally over. According to Kendrick, Bitcoin could benefit from many factors. For example, recent instability in the banking sector due to the end of the Fed's rate hike cycle and the increased profitability of cryptocurrency mining. As uncertainty persists, Kendrick believes the path to the $100,000 level is becoming more apparent. Bitcoin has bounced back this year, topping $30,000 for the first time in 10 months. However, the crypto industry lost trillions of dollars in 2022 after the Fed raised interest rates. Observers Are Arguing About Bitcoin Standard Chartered isn't the only

How to test the voltage and ground value of the Antminer T17 hash board power supply unit?

How to test the voltage and ground value of the Antminer T17 hash board power supply unit?

PIC chip stores voltage and chip information

Voltage and ground value test for Antminer T17 power supply unit

1. 17V voltage test

Test method: The Fluke 17B+ multimeter is adjusted to the DC gear, the red test lead is placed on the positive electrode of the power interface of the hash board, and the black test lead is placed on the negative electrode of the power interface.

2. PIC chip voltage test

There is a black dot on the PIC chip, that is 1st Pin.
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to DC gear, measure whether the 9th Pin of the PIC chip has output; the normal voltage is about 3.3V. If there is no 3.3V, please check the connection status of the T17 hash board test cable to determine whether the hash board is normal; if not, you need to re-program the PIC.

3. MOS tube voltage test

There is a white dot next to the MOS tube, which is 1st Pin. The voltage of the MOS tube is the 1st Pin input, 8th Pin output.
Test method: The Fluke 17B+ multimeter is in DC gear, the black test lead is placed on the negative pole of the capacitor, and the red test lead is placed on the first or eighth Pin of the MOS tube. The input and output values of the MOS tube voltage can be measured. Normally, there will be 17V input and output.
If the voltage is abnormal, it is necessary to measure the ground value of the MOS tube. 
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to the diode gear, put the red test lead on the capacitor's negative pole and put the black test lead on the 1st or 8th Pin of the MOS tube. If the ground value is abnormal, replace the MOS tube. (To judge whether the resistance value of the MOS tube is abnormal, you can compare it with other MOS tubes)

4. LDO 1.8V and PLL 0.8V output voltage test

There is a white dot next to LDO 1.8V, which is 1st Pin. The LDO 1.8V voltage is the 1st Pin input, 5th Pin output.
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to DC gear, put the black test lead on the heat sink of the same domain, the red test lead on the 1st Pin, normally there will be 2.5V input, and the red test lead on the 5th Pin, normally there will be 1.8V input-output.
There is a white dot next to PLL 0.8V, which is Pin 1. PLL 0.8V voltage is the input of Pin 1 and the output of Pin 5.
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to DC gear, put the black test lead on the heat sink of the same domain, the red test lead on the 1st Pin, normally there will be 1.8V input, and the red test lead on the 5th Pin, normally there will be 0.8V input-output.
If the voltage is abnormal, it is necessary to measure the ground value of LDO 1.8V and PLL 0.8V. 
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to the diode gear, put the red test lead on the same domain's heat sink and put the black test lead on the 1st Pin. If the ground value is abnormal, replace the corresponding LDO 1.8V and PLL 0.8V. (To judge whether the resistance of LDO 1.8V and PLL 0.8V is abnormal, you can compare other LDO 1.8V and PLL 0.8V)

5. 24V voltage test

24V can be measured across the black capacitor.
Test method: adjust the Fluke 17B+ multimeter to the DC gear; the red test lead is placed on the positive pole of the power interface of the hash board, and the black lead is placed on the negative pole of the power interface.

How to repair ASIC miner hash board

How to repair ASIC miner hash board Important parts of ASIC miners – Hash board One  ASIC miner consists of 3 to 5 Hash board, a control board, a casing, and software, among which the Hash board are easiest  to broken. because the ASIC bitcoin miner hash board consists of many serially connected ASIC chips. When they work, they will be in a high-temperature environment for a long time. In this environment, it is easy to burn the chip or scatter the solder due to high temperature which makes the hash board or the mining machine unable to work and no hash rate.
