It was affordable, easy to set up, and sips almost no power. ⛏️ But let's be real: at ~1.3 TH/s, I’m playing the Bitcoin lottery. The odds of hitting a solo block are about 1 in 500 million. It’s an incredible feeling to be part of the network, but I'm not expecting a payout anytime soon. If you want better odds, you have to look at industrial-grade ASICs like the Antminer S19 or the new S21: • Antminer S19: A legendary workhorse. It pumps out ~100 TH/s (nearly 80x more power than my Bitaxe) but pulls ~3,200W from the wall. • Antminer S21: The current king. Efficiency beast with ~200 TH/s, but it's expensive and still draws ~3,500W. The catch? Those big machines are loud as a jet engine, turn your room into a sauna, and will make your electricity meter spin like crazy. 🥵 For me, the Bitaxe is the perfect entry point. Low cost, silent, and I'm actually learning how mining works under the hood instead of just reading about it. It's a lottery ticket that never expires. 🎟️₿ #Bitcoin #Mining #Bitaxe #PlebChain #LearningByDoing #SoloMining #Antminer
