The first month of 2023 is now over. First of all, it is remembered for a 40 percent rise in Bitcoin and a serious rebound in the cryptocurrency market as a whole. The 70 percent increase in BTC miners’ profitability is also a nice thing to remember. However, that’s not all. The results of January need to be summed up for the 2Miners mining pool as well.

Problems with FIRO wallet

Representatives of the 2Miners team encountered problems with the FIRO wallet. In particular, for some reason it does not allow to spend the coins they have minted and therefore they also cannot make payments. The FIRO developers are aware of the situation and help the 2Miners team to solve the problem as soon as possible.

At the same time, 2Miners representatives are able to make some payouts from their own funds at a gradual pace. Accordingly, the transactions in progress can be seen on the blockchain, but they are not payments in normal mode.

The 2Miners team has changed wallet and is now waiting for a solution from FIRO developers to unblock crypto-assets on the old wallet. As soon as the problem is fixed, payments will resume immediately.

BEAM delisted from the Binance exchange

On 26 January 2023, the cryptocurrency exchange delisted BEAM. Accordingly, deposits in this cryptocurrency are no longer being made on the platform. Alas, the 2Miners team cannot recover your crypto-assets or transfer outstanding balances from one address to another – read more here.

If you continue to mine BEAM to an address on the Binance exchange, change it immediately.

When mining BEAM, it is best to use the project’s official mobile or PC wallet. This will allow you to own the private key to the address and control your coins.
