Sounds like a dope project. Is this site legit? whasminer.net? I could grab a couple of chips and help out if needed. Also, should we check out the BM1391? Seems cheaper and decent.

I'm running 14 of those USB sticks right now... and yeah, I’ve preordered a couple more. I always wanted to get into mining, but I thought investing in crypto was better. Never liked those loud S9 miners. With BTC…

They definitely need efficient low-power gear. I’ve tried various small miners and nothing beats the Nano 3 in terms of value.

If the Nano 3 wasn't mediocre at the low end, it’d be cooler. $200 for under 60W/TH? Nah. Axe is more efficient for most uses right now.

for sure, I get it. one has a decent roi potential, the other... not so much unless bitcoin skyrockets. but some folks will just buy the chips and make their own batch. cheaper upfront, can flip a few for profit.

my two cents: running a 60W miner could cost between 50-100 bucks a year at decent rates. compare that to 400-1000W setups costing hundreds. the appeal is clear low initial cost and minimal electricity bills. I can see…

i just picked the data the OP provided starting today w. compass mining. i didn't really cherry pick that. IMO mine and hodl is just a different way to DCA bitcoin which has proven to be one of the highest ways to ROI…

use a bitcoin standard. S19 - $8000 8000/30,000 = 0.26 BTC Power costs per month divided by BTC price. $146.02 / $31,200.00 = 0.004680 $146.02 / $32,448.00 = 0.004500 $146.02 / $33,745.92 = 0.004327 $146.02 / $35,095.75…

I grabbed one already! Quick question though, I noticed newpacs used S9 chips. The S9s hit 13.5 TH/s with 189 chips or around 71 GH/s per chip. I've had some newpacs running close to those speeds. If S17 chips can hit…

Dude, fabricating transactions is pretty much impossible. The majority wouldn’t even want to use a manipulated chain. Rolling back the chain is way more sensible.

Honestly, if you're thinking about mining for profit, you'll need some cash to play with. There’s a lot involved. If you're starting from scratch, you'd ideally want cheap electricity, like around 2 to 6 cents per kWh.…

The Bitcoin protocol doesn’t care about your hash power. As long as you send in a share, you’ll eventually get rewarded. Might take ages, but you still earn something. We should support these low-power miners in the…
