AsicBoost is now part of DecentralPost Media Group

AsicBoost was invented by Timo Hanke in collaboration with Sergio Lerner.

The method is based on an ingenious new way to process work items, both inside and outside of the Bitcoin mining ASIC. It involves a new design of the SHA 256 hash-engines inside the ASIC and an additional pre-processing step as part of the mining software outside the ASIC.

AsicBoost’s hash-engine design is compatible with design philosophies such as “rolled cores” and “fully pipelined cores”. The performance gains are achieved on top of all other optimizations regarding timing, pipelining, path balancing, custom cell and full-custom designs.

In April 2020, DecentralPost acquired the brand name AsicBoost.com (the patent and underlying solutions have no connection to DecentralPost.com).

We at DecentralPost strive to offer most up-to-date and accurate cryptocurrency guides and explainers for beginners and seasoned users alike.
