🚀 GPU Sieving is coming to FACTOR. A major milestone toward making integer factorization mining dramatically faster. By accelerating the sieving stage on modern GPUs, miners can process vastly more candidates while CPUs focus on the remaining high-value work. This is another step toward transforming commodity GPU hardware into infrastructure for real cryptographic computation. More performance. More useful compute. More mathematics. #FACTOR #GPU #Mining #Cryptography #IntegerFactorization #CUDA #UsefulProofOfWork

Roadmap update: FACTOR → Ethereum. We’ve officially added an Ethereum bridge to the roadmap. This opens new opportunities for liquidity, DeFi integration, cross-chain utility, ecosystem growth, and broader access to FACTOR. A bigger, more connected future starts here. #Eth @ethereum #ether

Number 8 was called a strike, the one that took the Dominican team out the series.

The Factor Ecosystem in one picture. A global marketplace where computational power, cryptography research, and national security needs meet. ⛏️Miners contribute secure compute. 🧮Mathematicians and cryptographers submit broken RSA keys and audit results. 🏛️Governments gain verifiable key audits with transparent bounties. 💰Private sector investment fuels the entire cycle. Factor turns RSA key auditing into a decentralized, incentive-driven ecosystem that strengthens digital security for nations and institutions. Built for miners, researchers, and governments. Designed for the future of cryptographic assurance.

📰New FACTOR FLASH⚡️ When a new project appears near the top of a profitability table, most miners only see a ticker, a symbol and a few numbers: revenue per day, power, hashrate. Behind $FACT, sitting today among the most profitable coins for CPUs like the Ryzen 7950X, there is a quiet story of engineering work that almost no one sees: a redefinition of what “hashrate” even means for a non‑hashing network, a reworked pool backend, and a long back‑and‑forth with the team at @HashrateNO to make everything line up correctly. At the center of that work is Alex, @_fact_dog_, FACTOR’s mining ambassador. This is how FACTOR made it onto Hashrate.no, and why that matters for miners who care about both their revenue and the kind of work their CPUs are actually doing. Link to article in thread ▼
