While mining is paused, the guild grind isn't. When I first set up my guild a few days back, it was fresh, name locked in, visuals sorted, but still early in terms of actual members. Mentioned at the time I was working on building it out properly. Used the pause in mining activity to do exactly that. Focused on the guild side since it's still active while mainnet testing runs. Got 2 more people in, guild is now sitting at 5 members and we've moved from 14th to 13th on the rankings. Small jump, but it's movement and it's early. If you've been watching the TIPF series and haven't made a move yet, this is actually the right window. Mining is paused but guild setup isn't. Getting in now means you're positioned before activity resumes rather than scrambling after.

TIPF just shipped a major infrastructure upgrade. Here's what it actually means for miners. @TIPF_AI has moved its VRF system onto Magicblock's Ephemeral Rollups. The announcement is technical but the implications are straightforward, here's what changes for you as a miner. Faster results, no dead time. VRF no longer runs as a direct on-chain call. By moving onto ephemeral rollups, round settlement is near-instant. No more waiting between cycles, the dead time between rounds is essentially gone. Zero per-round oracle fees. This one matters more than it sounds. Every round previously carried a recurring VRF oracle cost that came out of protocol overhead. That cost is now eliminated entirely, meaning more of what flows through the protocol stays in the ecosystem rather than bleeding out to infrastructure fees. Better for miner rewards long term. The fairness guarantee stays intact, and gets stronger. Every round outcome still comes with a cryptographic proof published on-chain. Tamper-proof, independently verifiable, no third party can influence results. The level playing field that made TIPF worth writing about doesn't change, the infrastructure delivering it just got faster and cheaper. Built for scale. The upgraded system handles significantly more concurrent miners without congestion. No stuck rounds, no failed transactions during peak activity. As the guild competition and weekly prize pools bring more players in, the infrastructure is now ahead of that growth rather than reacting to it. This is also the foundation for what's coming. Guild battles, mining tournaments, new game modes The announcement confirms these are in the pipeline, and this rebuild is specifically what makes shipping them faster and cleaner possible. Worth paying attention to. Mining is currently paused while mainnet testing completes. @TIPF_AI will announce the resumption date once it's ready. More to come. 👀
