π’News of the week
Briefly on the main news this week.
πΏMining types
Mining can be of the following types:
π«Mining on video cards
π«ASIC mining
π«Browser-based mining
π«Cloud mining
β οΈMinto is the next generation of cloud mining. We save you from all the expenses and inconveniences of traditional mining and offer an asset in the form of BTCMT tokens. BTCMT is a part of mining that you can stake and receive mining rewards in return, either sell it and earn on the price change.
πΏWhat is hashrate? How is it related to the types of mining?
Hashrate is the total computing power of the mining equipment used in the process of cryptocurrency mining.
πHashrate is closely related to mining difficulty. The mining difficulty shows how challenging it is to perform a mathematical calculation for a new block.
The more computing power (miners) take part in the mining, the higher the hashrate and so the difficulty of mining, and vice versa.

πCongratulations to the participants!π
Recently we held a BTCMT token draw supporting the legalization of BTC in El Salvador.
π°We gave 1 BTCMT for the purchase of BTC, equal to $30!
π₯Congratulations to the participants! Even though 1 BTCMT is not that much, still, it opens the door to carefree and convenient mining and receiving income.
πIf you did not happen to receive a free token, you still can buy it at a lower price in the presale: https://minto.finance/presale

π’What is DeFi and what are its advantages?
πDeFi or decentralized finance are financial tools built on the blockchain.
Decentralized finance has been created as an alternative to traditional centralized banking and other services to make access to finance more convenient, easier, and possible for everyone. There are 12 decentralized finance areas.
π°The advantages of DeFi are simplicity, accessibility, transparency, system stability, and total control over your assets.

β¨ What are APR and APYβ¨
Let's find out the difference between APR and APY within the framework of investments.
πAPR stands for annual percentage rate. APR shows the accrued interest per year.
πAPY stands for annual percentage yield. It indicates the yield of investments for 1 year.
There might be several compounding periods in a year. If the interest is applied only once a year, the APR and APY match, but this rarely happens. The more often the interest is accrued, the higher the APY will be.
Choosing an asset for investment, pay attention to APY rates and compare assets in terms of their APYs and APRs to receive accurate data.

π‘What is gas, and what is it for?π‘
Gas is a unit of payment for transactions on a blockchain.
πDecentralized applications set min and max gas fee prices depending on the complexity and importance of the transaction.
A customer sets the maximum price one is ready to pay for the transaction. If the user's maximum gas limit is lower than the displayed transaction cost, the transaction will fail. The higher the customer transaction cost, the higher the priority of this transaction and the faster it moves.β¨
Blocks in the network also have gas limits, which means they can conduct a limited number of transactions per unit of time.
πThe currency for the gas fee depends on the blockchain.

π«Are there any extra fees when staking, buying, or selling tokens?π«
You should pay a Gas commission to make a transaction.
π‘On the Minto platform, gas is paid with HT tokens. Read more about how and where to buy them on the link:
https://medium.com/@btcmtofficial/a-guide-on-how-and-why-to-buy-ht-19b3b024f77d
π’Statistics on the HT token: https://coinmarketcap.com/uk/currencies/huobi-token/
Users pay a fee for buying tokens and staking. However, the HECO blockchain charges low transaction fees compared with the Ethereum network.
Once listed, BTCMT tokens will be available on exchanges. However, each exchange charges different fees for transactions, so we cannot affect the commission size there.
We will publish the information about the listing, so stay tuned.π₯
