What is your advantage over Ice Rock Mining? You plan to mine ZEC instead of bitcoin, if I understand correctly?
What about your price of electricity? If you want to be competitive, you need cheap electricity.

What differentiates us from Ice Rock Mining?

We are launching an STO that is registered with the SEC and the PI security token carries with it voting rights as well as profit sharing.
Our company is focused on finding other applications of cryptocurrency mining to help drive socioeconomic change.

We feel the second point should be the biggest reason an investor should choose Pivent over other mining operations. Giving back and building diverse and inclusive communities will help build a better society. Take our first initiative to take on rising housing costs. Where I live, families are facing tough decisions due to the ever rising price of rent, home prices, and taxes. These families eventually have no choice but to move to more affordable areas. When they move away, they leave behind their community. More importantly, they take their different perspectives. This scenarios similar to this occur across the US daily. What if we could change this to be the exception and not the norm. Well, that is what our first initiative aims to tackle. We will be building mining units that can be installed in to homes and work with non-profits to help identify potential families that could benefit from our program. This will allow us to help offset the rising cost of housing while also allowing us to distribute our mining operations across a larger area.

Yes, we plan to mine coins that use the Equihash algorithm. We will also be using FPGAs to target coins with other algorithms such as Tribus and Nexus. Long term we will shift to using more FPGAs than ASICs as we build up our library of bitstreams and the offering of FPGA equipment improves. This will give us the ability to provide computing power to a variety of projects that need help securing their network.

Currently, our electric costs are around $0.10/KwH. However, we believe that we can get this cost down to around $0.05/KwH as our operation grows to 3+ MW. This cost can be driven even lower once we are able to start taking advantage of solar power with battery backup (like an array of Tesla Powerwalls).
