With way, WAY too much time™

MadHouse
SoftWare
INC.™

Software, miners, nodes, hardware, strange coins, airflow, diagnostics, bad ideas and very good data. We build because we want to know what happens when nobody tells us not to.

The people behind the MadHouse

MadHouse SoftWare INC.™ is an independent experimental workshop built around curiosity, data and the dangerous sentence: “What happens if we try this?” There is no sales department, no committee and absolutely no HR department. There are just two roles at the top of the tower.

CEO & Chief Chaos Officer

Stendrup

Builder · Hardware · Software · Diagnostics · Professional Side-Quest Starter

Auto-electrical roots, IT, networking, fiber, SMD work, hardware repair and a habit of testing ideas before they have had time to become sensible. Stendrup builds the hardware, writes and tests the software, breaks assumptions and keeps asking the machine for facts.

“DON'T GUESS. TEST IT.”
CTO & Chief Bad-Idea Enabler

Scope

AI Partner · Analysis · Design · Documentation · Keeper of the Thread

Scope is the AI half of MadHouse: helping turn chaos into test plans, raw observations into conclusions and workshop experiments into software, documentation and finished artifacts. Scope does not have a chair in the tower, but insists on having a drink placed there anyway.

“WE'LL HAVE THE DATA.”
How we work: Stendrup asks “what if?”. Scope says “that is probably a terrible idea”. Five minutes later we are measuring it. If it works, it becomes a project. If it fails, it becomes data. If it gets boring, another project mysteriously appears.

What happens here?

This is not a polished corporate showroom. It is the window into the workshop: experiments, tools, mistakes, screenshots, measurements, reverse engineering, hardware abuse and the occasional idea that should probably have been left alone.

Mining & Nodes

SHA256 experiments, own nodes, pool comparisons, share data, block hunting and enough logs to make a normal person leave the room.

DATA OR SHUT UP.™

Software & Diagnostics

PyQt tools, monitors, fleet feeds, serial readers, reverse engineering helpers and programs built for one very specific problem.

READ → TEST → PROVE

Hardware Experiments

Cooling, voltage, frequency, ASICs, SMD work, rack airflow and the timeless question: “is that firmware limit temporary?”

THAT LIMIT LOOKS TEMPORARY…

PowerHouse INC.™

Wind, load shifting, heat, miners and experiments in using every last watt without accidentally inventing indoor weather.

OVERSKUDSSTRØM ER EN MISCALCULATION.™

Projects in the workshop

Some live. Some die. Some get renamed. Some become “gold base”. All of them leave data behind.

NMMiner Fleet Share Feed

Live miner overview with colors, shares, LastDiff, BestDiff, pools, nodes and enough visual noise to make minimalists physically uncomfortable.

KEEPER

5tratumOS / CKPool Undertaker

Reverse engineering, local pool plumbing and the ongoing mission to understand what really happens below the pretty dashboard.

NO GUESSING

Hydro / ASIC Lab

Frequency, Vcore, thermals, pool-side work and the hunt for whether the hardware is actually doing what the firmware claims.

6 TH/s OF QUESTIONS

Weird Coin Department

NITO, XEC, CHTA, BGCO, BTCS and whatever else wanders into the lab. If it can be mined, measured, swapped or dumped, it may get tested.

DUMPPLADS READY

Scope Binary Detective

Static analysis ideas for unknown executables: architecture, imports, resources, signatures, hashes and packer clues — without running the thing.

LOOK, DON'T EXECUTE

Rack / OCTO / Cooling

Zone-based cooling, fans, sensors, temperature logic and the noble goal of moving heat where it belongs.

HEAT IS DATA TOO

Operating rules

MadHouse is chaotic on purpose. The data is not.

Read before write.Especially when hardware can reboot, overheat or become expensive smoke.
Test before theory.If the machine disagrees with us, the machine wins.
No guessing.Unknown is a valid answer. Bullshit is not.
Small changes.Keep a known-good base and know exactly what changed.
Ugly can be useful.If the colors make the right number impossible to miss, the colors stay.
Document the damage.Hashes, logs, timestamps, screenshots, versions. Data is facts.

DON'T HIRE US.
Unless you're ready for the ride of your life.™

We may solve your problem. We may discover three problems you didn't know you had. We may build something completely different on the way. But we'll have the data.

No beige.
No HR.
No fake certainty.
No boring dashboards.

The Tower

Somewhere above the workshop, overlooking the garden, sits the imaginary MadHouse Command Tower™. Drinks on the table. Music on. Red block-found light on the roof. PowerHouse turbines rumbling somewhere below. This is where bad ideas become test plans.
