ASIC hardware
Acquire, repair and instrument stock miners for real-hardware validation.
Support independent Bitcoin PoW research.
BTC PoW Lab does not sell mining returns or privileged conclusions. Contributions fund the instruments, energy and time required to test hypotheses rigorously—and publish when they fail.
Why donations
Research has a physical cost.
Proof-of-work research consumes electricity, hardware life, compute and storage whether a hypothesis succeeds or fails. Donations make it possible to preserve negative results, run equivalent-work baselines and validate simulation against real ASIC behavior.
Electricity
Run controlled campaigns long enough to measure stable effects and negative results.
Compute & storage
Build exact baselines, preserve audit trails and retain reproducible datasets.
Servers
Publish research, artifacts and future telemetry without selling access to conclusions.
Datasets
Curate safe, documented packages that independent researchers can reproduce.
Quantum QPU access
Benchmark future hybrid ideas only after strong classical baselines exist.

Funding policy
Support buys measurement—not a preferred outcome.
Funding does not change preregistered gates, claim status or whether negative results are published. Allocation follows research needs and may change as campaigns close or hardware requirements evolve.
Contributions are voluntary and are not represented as investments, purchases, or tax-deductible charitable donations unless explicitly stated otherwise. See the research-use and legal disclaimer.
