ePIC Blockchain Technologies Reduces UMC OS Development Fee to 1.5%, Extending Institutional-Grade Optimization Across Mining Fleets

TORONTO, Jan. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — ePIC Blockchain Technologies (“ePIC”), a North American semiconductor and high-performance computing engineering company, today announced a significant reduction in development fees for UMC OS, its proprietary Bitcoin mining firmware. The development fee has been lowered to a market-leading 1.5%. This reduction allows the broader mining community to access the leading-edge firmware at a competitive rate.

UMC OS is a custom firmware solution built on ePIC’s Universal Mining Controller (UMC) platform, designed to improve mining efficiency and performance without requiring hardware replacement. The firmware employs Perpetual Tune, an algorithm that automatically sets and maintains hashrate targets at the most efficient operating point.

The firmware integrates with most standard fleet deployment tools and includes API documentation for operators running internal management systems. UMC OS supports most air-cooled Antminer S19 and Antminer S21 variants, offering miners a low-fee, high-performance alternative for optimizing fleet operations.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
