Node Deterioration & Repair

Hashed simulated the way equipment works. Nodes can deteriorate with time and slowly lose crumbles of power after repairs.

Power Deterioration

While a node is deployed in a datacenter, it experiences constant wear!

Nodes lose power at a base rate of 1% per hour while active. This loss directly reduces the node's effective hashrate for mining (rewards as well.)

To ensure a node always contributes some value, power cannot drop below a minimum floor of 25% of its base power.

The Deterioration Reducer passive skill can lower this hourly decay rate based on the skill's specific percentage.

Automatic Extraction Rules

The system enforces a "maintenance minimum" to prevent nodes from running at critically low efficiency.

If a deployed node's power drops below 25%, it is automatically extracted from the datacenter and accumulated $HASHED are sent to the wallet (minus the 10% penalty fee).

Repair System Overview

Nodes require repairs to restore their effective hashrate to 100%.

Repairing a node that is not deployed is free.

Any $HASH spent on repairs is auto burned, helping to regulate the token supply.

Repair Cost Formula

For nodes currently deployed, the repair cost is tied to your unclaimed rewards, it will be shown before transaction.

Example

If power is 60% (0.6), missing power is 40%, so 40 units. Cost = 0.01 × 40 × unclaimed = 40% of unclaimed rewards.

• Formula: repairCost = unclaimedRewards × 0.01 × missingPowerUnits.

• Calculation: missingPowerUnits is defined as the percentage of power lost divided by 0.01 (e.g., 30% lost = 30 units).

Permanent Hashrate Degradation

Repairing a node is not a perfect restoration, it causes permanent structural damage to the node's base hashrate.

A node permanently loses 1% of its base hashrate for every 100% of power restored.

• Degradation Formula: newBaseHashrate = oldBaseHashrate × (1 - powerRepaired × 0.01)

• Cumulative Effect: This degradation accumulates over time.

Example

If you repeatedly let a 100 MH/s node drop to 25% and repair it, its base hashrate will drop to approximately 99.25 MH/s after the first repair and roughly 8.3 MH/s after ten such repairs.

Managing deterioration is vital for maintaining a profitable mining operation over the long term.

Tips:

Repairing when power is still high (e.g., above 80%) results in smaller degradation per repair, preserving more of the node's absolute hashrate value for a longer period.

Strategic players use Deterioration Reducer skills or Flux Expanders to add maintenance-related skills, minimizing repair frequency.

Because nodes eventually lose value through degradation, there is a natural demand to build new nodes or use the Fusion system to replace older, less efficient hardware.
