Avalon Nano has arrived! Looking forward to a fun weekend project seeing how it is.

We must Bitaxe even harder now that one has found a block 🫡

Got my younger brother a Bitkey to get him started on his bitcoin journey 🥹 I think he’ll have a fun time learning on his own instead of me ranting about bitcoin all the time 😂

I’ve had two #bitaxe for a couple of weeks, and it’s been great. Recently just ordered an S9. I guess it’s safe to say I have bitten by the mining bug 😬

Yeah it was pretty loud. Emitted a weird high pitched frequency. Fiancée made me put it in the basement 😅 Luckily the BitAxe GitHub mentions the Noctua quiet fan. It’s pretty silent now! https://a.co/d/08AfL6hT

Noctua NF-A4x20 5V PWM, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin, 5V Version (40x20mm, Brown). I’ll attach the Amazon link. More info can be found on the Bitaxe GitHub too in the hardware section. https://github.com/skot/bitaxe?tab=readme-ov-file#hardware

New #BitAxe acquired! This time from @npub1k8s…6y88. Threw a Noctua fan on it and now it’s quiet enough to keep in my office 😆. Feels good to be over 1 TH/s. It even matches my HRF Freedom Mints from Pubkey!

Amazing store with great designs. It’s so fun to pay with sats. And they give awesome free stickers too! ⚡️

2024-06-27 18:34:03

Replaced the fan on my Bitaxe and it’s working! All set up with Public Pool through my Umbrel, and now it’s off to the races for the rare opportunity to solo mine a block one day 🥹🫡

All that hashrate sounds nice for the price, so that’s good to hear it’s not too hot to have around

2024-06-25 20:57:17

How’s the heat coming out of the Avalon Nano? They said it’s also a heater; wondering how hot it will be in a room during the summer 😅

2024-06-25 20:49:47

- reply

Since the hashrate is pretty low, it’s my understanding that these won’t be profitable for a very long time considering the cost of the Bitaxe and minimal amount of sats you’ll get from joining a pool. Might be best to use it as a lottery ticket and just run it solo for fun 🙂

2024-06-25 20:23:46

- reply

Definitely a bummer, but a nice learning experience to try and fix it! Luckily the display and everything works great. Since the fan is busted, it just gets hot really quick 🥵

2024-06-25 19:52:36

Update: Fan on Bitaxe isn’t working 😔 Looks like when the fan was screwed into the heat sync, the blue wire got caught underneath and the connection was severed. Going to tinker around with it, but have a new fan on the way later this week, just in case. Still super exciting to play around with!

Yup! This is the Bitaxe Ultra. I got mine from Altair Tech, but here’s a list of sellers from the Bitaxe page: https://bitaxe.org/legit.html I think the different models range from $100-$200.

Lookin’ good! I need to look into the HexAxe. I appreciate the open source nature of the Bitaxe, so I’m stoked I got that one as my first to begin learning. Will be joining you soon when I get my Bitaxe! 🫡

I feel that. I had fomo earlier after listening to @npub1qny…95gx and @npub1guh…6hjy talk about Bitaxe and the Avalon Nano on RHR. Going to start with the Bitaxe and hopefully work my way up to the larger ones 🤙

2024-06-21 00:34:28

Hello #NYC peeps! Does anyone have any cool #bitcoin places to recommend while one is in the area next week? I may spend all my time at @npub1key…lt3h but would like to see if there’s other places I could spend some sats at :)
