I like the project with the concept of mining, but to get bigger profits must use tools, and requires considerable electrical energy.
whether this project is the same as other mining projects
Hello,
first of all, our token is not mineable - we are not using Proof of Work. You get NOIA tokens as a reward by sharing your unused bandwidth and some storage. NOIA client will use a surprisingly low amount of computing resources -> low electricity consumption.
Regarding tools, the Node.js application can be run on any Linux, Windows or MacOS machine. However, if a low-end computer will not be effective, NOIA Edge device could help to solve that problem.
We suggest reading more about this network-attached-storage on our Whitepaper:
