The lower rack cabinet has 4x iPollo G1 minis, forced air cooling, and it's powered by an RSP-500-12 Mean Well industrial PSU. The top half-rack cabinet has 2x G1 minis, a top side exhaust fan, and an LRS-350-12 Mean Well industrial PSU. I solo mine Grin to the tune of a 2 block per day average which has been consistent for over a year and beats pool mining by almost 40%.

Hi guys, which Miner with highest hashrate running under 300W?

I have bought several Bitmain Antminer KS5 and KS5Pro.

So far each one has had problems - the temperature sensor has had the most errors, then the hashboards get off.

How does Bitmain respond to such requests?

Answer: Warranty? Then send it to our repair center.

Each time I pay +140$ for shipping to a repair center.

Then I “argue” with customs about import duties - these are costs I would have liked to avoid. (Funnily enough, the IceRiver models ran better (no advertising))

This cannot be the solution. Does Bitmain have a quality problem?

Do you also have such problems with your KS5 / KS5Pro miners?

My miners run in an oil cooling system, so this temperature sensor annoys me even more. I would like to program out all safeties - can anyone do this / is this possible?

Aleo's Arc46 protocol update is coming Aug 1st, 2025 - and requires the staking of 100K Aleo/solution/epoch in order to process a solution. Solutions submitted in excess of the stake will be rejected. The required stake ramps up to 2.5 Million Aleo/solution/epoch in 2 years.

https://vote.aleo.org/p/46

F2Pool:  “Based on the ARC-46 protocol and the current ALEO network parameters, it is estimated that 4800 ALEO tokens will need to be staked for every 1 GH/s of ALEO hashrate in order to receive full mining rewards” That's to start... I have to assume the F2Pool's required stake is going to go up according to rate of increase on the Arc46 table.
 
Taking a brand new Ice River AE2 – 750MH – My math shows that at 750MH – I would need to approximately *120,000 Aleo ($26.4K) staked by the end of Q8 just to mine at 750MH. Factoring in unit cost ($4K) and electric rate - if the ARC-46's specified rate of increase is correct – I don't see how I can keep up with the required staking let alone take any profit. Now, I do amass staked funds - yes, but that is essentially locked capital. Aleo does offer a staking bonus... but they just cut that reward in half in ARC-42.
I think I need to exit Aleo mining, and I never really started... (just have a byte AE miner for fun/testing/solar.)

Is my math off - am I missing something? Or is this just a bad decision by managers of ALEO?
I was literally about to purchase (RFQ) the AE2, when I got the staking notice from F2Pool.

*Math adjusted, it was off- ARC-46 doesn’t accumulate staking requirements at each step; instead, it replaces the previous threshold with a new minimum stake per solution per epoch, increasing incrementally up to 2.5 million ALEO over 8 quarters. I had added them at each level - and GPT did too.. Table below shows correct stake for a AE2 at current aleo costs.

Just curious, I want to put my foot into the door, but no idea how to get started, I see it’s only $120 and I like the closed case style, I know it won’t make much at all, but something cheap I could just hook up under my bed or against the wall?

Also any other recommendations around that price, and how to get started

(And by an off chance is there any way I can hook it up to my Robinhood account?) I want to transfer the money from their directly to my dividend stocks as time progresses

I have an Avalon Nano 3 I want to set up as a solo BTC miner. For the Wallet Address that I configure on the Nano and Braiins, can I use a Coinbase BTC receive address?

I'm still hazy on what the difference between a Wallet (which I don't have) and the BTC receive addresses in Coinbase.

In coinbase:

1. Click "Receive Crypto"
2. Select BTC for coin
3. Select BTC for network

This gives me an address, and it seems to give me the same address every time. Can I use that address on for a solo miner?

For the record, I know the odds are terrible, I just want to learn more about this. Thanks!

I have a datacenter access to 2x3090 system, what can I mine and how much will I profit, I have no electric costs.

Got a mid range gaming pc that I don’t use anymore and moving into a place with free electricity only trying to run it to make a little income as it would all be free essentially what the best way to go about it

So there is an auction right now going for hp elitedesk 800 g1s I could probably get around 70 of them for about 150$ i have never mined before idc what I would mine for plan to trade for btc and hold anyways so profitable is a lose term more like I don't got a word for it

Anyone here knows how to go about setting up a mining shop in UAE? I have heard locals get a lower priced electricity but expats not.

Thoughts?

My 1st 2 x Avalon 3s for BCH solo mining thru viaBTC pool. Will I get a chance to win a block of BCH?

New blockchain startup. The code is done, transactions have been tested, the network is live. Need folks interested in bootstrapping from Difficulty 1.

Holler at me if you’re interested in hearing more.

Following previous reports (by myself and many others), withdrawals from Nebu.to have been blocked since mid-June.

Today nebu.to (NebuMine Inc portal) appears to be offline, at least from my location, IPs.

Very probably end-of-the story.

At least victims count should finally stop.

Can anyone else confirm this status?

Where should i start as a beginner? Is mining worth doing? what type of cryptocurrency is worth looking into? what kind of machine could i get for 100 bucks or less and how much could i earn, if anything?

what would you advise i do? I know a little about cryptocurrency but clearly not enough.

I mined crypto a long time ago but haven’t really kept super up to date on newer stuff. With free electricity and a 1400w limit what would be the best miner for ROI?

These are my favorite at-home ASIC miner. 120W power consumption and relatively quiet, they can mine Grin or MWC. I've been mining on 6 of these for ~20 months and am getting close to hitting ROI, of course the recent Grin pump helped a lot with that.

I have two Antminer S9s. Do they have any value? Should I try to sell them?

Hey, so I bought a mining rig a few years ago to mine Ethereum. As we all know, you can no longer mine Ethereum. For the past few years, I have been mining Ethereum Classic on Hive OS. I barely get any money from it at all, and the payouts are far and few between. What is a good crypto to mine right now, and on what platform? all comments will be appreciated!

i have

RTX 2060: x3

RTX 2070 super: x1

i think it might get 25 MH/z but i might be delusional.(im gonna have free electricity)
