I have checked the Bitfence Twitter and found a post and a picture of a sting miner. It looks very small and will protect you from hackers while earning crypto. I want this tiny sting miner now.

This is awesome to see, I'm glad the team have published and given us a insight as to what this miner actually looks like. I can't wait for the release, I myself; will most definitely be getting one.

I'm in love with this Stingminer. I like the fact it's small and not a huge bulky miner. Slick design and easy to mount or place anywhere in the house.

That was something which attracted me, the size of it is fantastic. Similar to a Raspberry Pi; easily can disclose it in a hidden location. Also the fact you can still mine on it from such a small system and generate some tokens is fantastic. Great workj

I do agree with you on that, having something tangible do something as magnificent as that can be eye catching and that's the focus of the new coming technological age, no one wants to implement or use something bulky, no matter how great the product is, if is bulky, the sales will be low compared to a product with a small size, i'm glad the product development team of BITFENCE kept that in mind during development

it's because it's not an actual miner, like an ASIC. From my understanding you are not confirming transactions on the blockchain, you 'mine' a reward everytime it reports a 'hackers' activity to the main network.

Let me get this straight and i'm sure some people in the community will like to get clarification on that, so what this means is, if a network was attacked by a hacker, is it BITFENCE that will automatically flag the hacker's IP as bad or will the report be done by the individual and secondly, will the sting miner do the mining automatically or does it need to be authenticated first by BITFENCE before the mining can be done?

I had similar questions Ive flipped through the whitepaper but its quite a complex project so I think more videos and documentation simplifying and explaining how things like this will work could go quite far with assuring peole

Yea, i think a detailed response to this will go a long way but from my view if such report is to be done by the community, it should first be authenticated by the BITFENCE team before commencing the necessary steps, such process will ensure credibility to the network and stop the process of false reports, even though the project is a decentralized one, is best to also keep the community in check too

Wow that sting miner device looks very small. Is this for home office or can used for big offices as well. And this device will catch hackers?

I think you can use sting miners everywhere, but for big companies you will need more to secure the network. I like the idea to go in public networks like an airport or railway station and mine a lot of hackers.

So this device need to connected before firewall or after firewall device? Will it be able to pass the huge amount of internet data through it ?

It's not a web gateway, so isn't designed to be inline. It essentially sits inside your network and will detect any malicious activity.

Exactly, almost like a proxy setup, wont require pass through of traffic and hence the "honeypot" will basically host a vulnerable target which collects vital information
