Tether developers are set to release innovative JavaScript libraries created to facilitate the transmission of commands and signals to Bitcoin (BTC) mining hardware, including WhatsMiner, AvalonMiner and Antminer.

In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Paolo Ardoino, the chief technology officer of Bitfinex and Tether, certain parts of the mining software could be made available on open-source platforms in the future. The Tether BTC mining software’s primary aim is to enhance the efficient management of mining capacity, leading to more effective operations.

Ardoino emphasized his role as a core contributor to Moria, an orchestration instrument for mining farms, and said that all recent advancements are built using Holepunch technology.

In a previous post, Ardoino shared insights about Moria’s functionality. This mining instrument enables communication among components within the BTC mining ecosystem, enabling interactions through streamlined, secure, attack-resistant and cost-efficient means.

Ardoino explained that every miner would have a unique public/private key, enabling encrypted and secure data streaming via hyper cores and command reception via hyper swarms. This approach reduces firewall configuration complexity, enhances resilience to failures, allows easy replication across sites and creates a sense of improved maintainability and modularity compared with previous attempts.
