Key Takeaways:

Tether will open-source its Bitcoin Mining Operating System (MOS) by Q4 2025 to eliminate reliance on third-party mining software.
MOS is modular and scalable, compatible with various mining setups and devices, and supports custom plugin development.
Tether’s initiative aligns with its push for decentralized Bitcoin infrastructure and may integrate with its AI venture, QVAX.

Tether is set to release its Bitcoin Mining Operating System (MOS) as open-source software by Q4 2025, aiming to eliminate reliance on expensive third-party mining solutions.

CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that MOS will empower new and existing miners – large and small – to compete more effectively by offering a scalable, modular system built on a peer-to-peer IoT architecture.

Tether will work towards open-sourcing its Bitcoin Mining OS (MOS).
A horde of new Bitcoin mining companies will be able to enter the game and compete to keep the network safe.
No need anymore of any 3rd party hosted software.
MOS will create an even playing field reducing the…

MOS will support a range of setups, from Raspberry Pi-linked miners to massive deployments managing hundreds of thousands of units.

It is designed to be compatible with existing mining infrastructure, including power containers and various mining hardware.

The software includes built-in plugins and allows developers to build and share custom extensions.

This move aligns with Tether’s broader push for decentralization in Bitcoin infrastructure, which includes a partnership with Ocean mining pool to support decentralized block building.

Ardoino also teased future integration with QVAX, Tether’s AI initiative, suggesting that AI tools could optimize mining using MOS data.

The initiative is expected to benefit smaller operations, particularly those with self-sustained energy sources like solar power.

With this development, Tether is positioning itself as a key player in reshaping the mining ecosystem. Ardoino closed with: “Make Mining Great Again.”
