Do you have a Bitcoin miner built in?

KPbICMAH · Nov 9, 2017

Hey Microsoft. Do you have a Bitcoin miner built into Microsoft Sudoku, or is it just your half-a**ed programmers? Whenever I run Sudoku, it just eats up 40-50% of my CPU cycles (Intel Core i3-2350M – not exactly top-notch, but not completely lame either).
Even if the game is just sitting at the main screen doing nothing at all. FOR HELL'S SAKE, WHY?! Has been like that for at least a year, nobody cares about feedback in Store, nobody cares to fix it.

Adding Bitcoin as a payment method.

I have not been able to afford XBox live for some time now but recently discovered the couple dollars I left idle in my Bitcoin Wallet are worth almost $200 hundred now. Did some googling and seen this (https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca/help/13942/microsoft-account-add-money-with-bitcoin)
stating than you can add bitcoin, However when I try I do not see the option for me to add Bitcoin where it should be. Was this option removed? or maybe not available in my country of Canada? Thanks for any assistance.

No it's available to buy but as with everything scalpers want to make profit so they along with gamers buy up.the non all access consoles I bought my console at launch.

You have to remember we are in a pandemic and with miners at least 8 gpus and gamers buying the next gen gpus the mining market is huge with people making mining farms

This along with gamers are causing a chip.shortage along with the pandemic affecting manufacturing and shipping worldwide

Why would a.scalper want.additional cost of 800 when they can buy a console for 600 and sell for 900-1000

As with any launch their is always a console shortage for the first 2 monthd

The Nintendo switch was in shortage for 2 years during normal times

This was before the many tides of miners (keep in mind. Mining has been up and down along with bitcoin but now that bitcoin is exploding more people mine to.make money)

You should check out Castle Miner Z in the indie game section.4 player co-op.If you join some ones game you can save their maps to play on.Murder Miners as well.Murder Miners not only lets you save maps but it has a huge list of user created maps built in
to the menus.Castle MinerZ though is more fun Ithink because the monsters are terrifying.

That's why chip manufacturers are disabling chips randomly to make them inefficient for mining

The 'chips' for Series X are designed and built only for the Series X, they aren't off the shelf and are therefore not affected by the bitcoin crypto-currency boom.
