Renting BLAKE2b Hash for Mining

Bitcoin
1

Looks like my S11s won’t arrive in time for day-one mining, so I’m looking to rent BLAKE2b hash temporarily.

Does anyone know of a legit rental provider that has compatible BLAKE2b/Sia ASIC hash and allows us to point the rented miners at our own Stratum/DATUM endpoint?

I currently have the BLAKE2b Knots node synced on testnet4 and will be setting up DATUM next. I’m looking for something that will work for the mainnet launch until my hardware arrives.

Has anyone actually tested a rental provider with this setup, I’d especially like to know which one and what configuration you used.

I’ve been wondering the same thing. Looks like this is coming soon to PyBlock: https://pyblock.xyz:8443/purchase_hashrate.php

It looks like PyBLØCK’s BLAKE2b rental will use PyBLØCK’s own Stratum and mine directly to the Bitcoin address we provide, rather than letting us point the rented hash at our own DATUM gateway. I’m I right on that?

Has anyone here actually used PyBLØCK’s hashrate rental before? Any issues? They are 100% legit?
