If proof of work doesn’t win in the hearts of the people we have failed.
Proof of work, when done correctly is significantly fairer, and more distributed than PoS/DPoS.
It also has a quantifiable security model. Where PoS is a guessing game.
Without proof of work crypto isn’t special. You make $BTC into pos, the price would tank.
We need to invest in proof of work coins. We need to educate people on the upsides and benefits of proof of work.
We can’t let the communists convince us that PoS is superior due to environmental concerns. That’s not the case.
Without proof of work it’s just a large spreadsheet. Who cares?

Why does Common Foundry use exact integer arithmetic?
Different implementations need to evaluate the same defined computation consistently. ForgeMatrix uses INT8 matrix operations with INT32 accumulation.
That's the reason behind the terminology.

Not sure why no one is mentioning this.
I unlocked FP8 on 40 series too! Not just BF16/FP16.
FP8 is the real prize here.
Also, I seriously doubt this guy held anything back.
He's just trying to scam people out of their money. There is a free windows version floating around.
4 days ago I posted about a FREE Linux module that turns on 2x tensor speed on the 4090. Yesterday 1usmus launched the same speedup, after holding it back for months.
HYDRA Tensor Unlock for RTX 40: about 2x FP16/BF16 tensor throughput with FP32 accumulation on the 4080 and 4090. In their own post they held it back for months and only released it because Chinese researchers found the same approach.
So the speedup existed for months. 4090 owners paid for the cards and never got it. It came out only after a free version was on GitHub.
Open came first and the other one followed. Remember the order.
And NVIDIA, the company that sold you the card with half its tensor speed switched off, still hasnt said a word.

Developers: Common Foundry's source is public.
Choose one question to follow through the code: how a transaction is handled, how a block is checked, or how a node tracks chain state.

Held it back for months?
But you couldn't even unlock the FP8 capabilities?
I dont belive you!

Common Foundry is working on the fundamentals 👀l
The latest release adds independent block-work verification, wallet improvements, and AMD mining support.
Not every meaningful Web3 update is flashy. Sometimes the infrastructure is the story.

Explain Common Foundry to a friend in one sentence.
Ours: a live blockchain where miners perform matrix computation and nodes check proofs of that work.
What would you need explained next: the mining workload, the proofs, or how to get started?

That was me. I did that. Atleast on the 40 series. 30 and 20 series were dine by others.

Private beta for our Inference Marketplace are going out this week.
Also, we have beefed up our infrastructure intruding 2 new relays for faster and more consistent syncing.

Common Foundry (@CommonFoundry1) reports a ~1.95x tensor speedup on an RTX 4070 Ti SUPER:
158.54 → 309.08 TFLOP/s, FP8→FP32 matched GEMM
Same GPU, same binary, same 240 W cap.
I've seen the same kind of unlock on my own 3080.

Common Foundry: We unlocked nearly 2× FP8→FP32 Tensor Core throughput on an RTX 4070 Ti SUPER. A matched GEMM in a custom NVIDIA CUTLASS 4.8.1 harness ran 1.95× faster: 158.54 → 309.08 TFLOP/s. Same GPU, binary and 240 W cap. Results:

Common Foundry keeps building 🛠️
v1.0.16 brings independent block-work verification, faster wallet catch-up and checksummed addresses.
Less noise, more infrastructure.

I did the 40 series unlocker. I unlocked FP8 for 40 series too. thats the BIG story, imho. but the whole unlock thing has been pretty amazing. watching the community come together to unlock first the 30, then me with the 40, then the 20 series.. I AM working on the 50 series too
CaptainCrypto retweeted
Where is your FP8 test? We doubled that too!
We are the ones that unlocked the 40 series. Hope you like it.

I unlocked the 40 series too! Not just for FP16/BF16 but for FP8 as well! double rate. github.com/JustAResearcher/g…
