Our manifesto
Mining decisions deserve clear, checkable information.
Proof-of-work mining mixes hardware, electricity, markets, and operations. Much of what is written about it is promotional or missing the assumptions behind its numbers.
MiningFAQ is a practical reference: we explain how mining works, compare hardware with sourced figures, and build tools that show their working, so you can make your own decisions.

What we stand for
Beginner friendly
Guides start from first principles and explain terms as they appear.
Sources included
Specifications, coin details, and news link to their sources, with the date observed.
Assumptions visible
Estimates show their units, inputs, and limitations, so you can see why a number came out as it did.
How we publish
Research
Technical claims are checked against primary sources such as manufacturer specifications and official project pages.
Validate
Every article passes a strict content schema before publishing: titles, dates, topics, and source links must be valid.
Review
Editors review technical claims and source quality. Content lives in version control, so every change has a history.
Date and update
Pages show when they were published and last updated, so you can judge how current they are.
