SpiderPool Launches NAT Distribution Mechanism, Ushering Bitcoin Mining into Dual Reward Era

On April 27, according to official news, SpiderPool, the world’s fourth-largest mining pool, announced that it has completed the implementation of the Bitcoin same-block NAT distribution technology, officially launching distribution on April 27, 2025. This mechanism introduces a new model of ‘dual rewards within the same block’ by overlaying NAT rewards on Bitcoin block outputs, marking a historic technological breakthrough that breaks the industry deadlock and opens a new era for Bitcoin mining. DMT-NAT (NAT), based on digital material theory, serves as a native Bitcoin chain coin, leveraging its extreme characteristics of same computing power, same public chain, same block, and same address, becoming an important extension of the BTC ecosystem. No additional equipment modifications are required, allowing miners to synchronize rewards every 10 minutes with Bitcoin block outputs, truly achieving a value binding that is rooted in Bitcoin. Currently, the single block output of NAT is approximately 386 million coins (valued at $90/block), corresponding to a market capitalization of about $90 million; it has shown strong growth momentum since its launch, briefly surpassing ordi in market capitalization and becoming a market focus. Block rewards will steadily decrease with mining difficulty and block height, with the code being fully open-source and the mechanism transparent, laying a solid foundation for long-term value growth. The core value of NAT lies in constructing a sustainable new profit path for miners: as NAT’s market capitalization continues to rise, single block rewards will gradually achieve cost coverage goals—when block rewards reach $50,000 (corresponding to a market cap of about $50 billion), it can effectively share miners’ operational costs; when it hits $500,000, it can further address the Bitcoin network security budget challenge, achieving a win-win for the industry. There is already a consensus in the industry that this technological revolution will open up a new profit track for miners, fundamentally alleviating mining cost pressures through innovative incentive paths, and strongly empowering the long-term sustainability of the Bitcoin network security budget. This is not only an important upgrade for the BTC ecosystem but also a key step for the entire Bitcoin mining industry towards dual-layer mining within the same block.
