 Watching the video, the Braiins is wired ethernet, but the energy efficiency is waaay worse than the BitAxe. 

It is showing on the video at 37 W/TH, this compares to what I see on the BitAxe at around 24W/TH.

The Braiins seems to run at 1.5 X the speed of the BitAxe, but requires about 3 times the power. 
 Indeed  
 Some interesting things.

Because Braiins use the controversial FPPS (Full Pay Per Share),  @BTCsessions payout is less than mine, despite having 1.5 X the mining power and using 3 X the energy.

He gets 43 Sats per day for 1.15 TH/s, I get around 50 Sats per day for 0.75TH/s

If you haven't watched  @GrassFedBitcoin video above, I would recommend.  @OCEAN don't use KYC, they use Stratum V2, which gives back template control to the miners. And they don't use FPPS, which is a subsidised payout and one that often forces pools to receive loans from Bitmain when pool "luck" drops significantly below 100%.

 
 you're not optimistic enough! you should be solo mining that thing! 
 I solo mine with a nerd miner 😂 
 
 okay perhaps too optimistic 🙂 
 I calculated the percentage change of winning a block solo mining here:

I warn you now, it's not good 😂  
 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000119426751592357% I like those odds!

 I'm not sure about your numbers. I'm not smart enough to know these things off the top of my head, but it looks like your conversion from EH/s to H/s is off by a lot of zeros. According to a couple of hashrate converters, the current 581 EH/s is 581,000,000,000,000,000,000 H/s. Six commas vs the 18 you used. Am I missing something? I'm probably wrong.  
 To be fair, the odds are still shit even when compared to winning the jackpot in a lottery. My math shows that currently with a single 625 GH/s Bitaxe and 580 EH/s network hashrate, odds are something around 1 in 928,000,000. 
 Not zero then 😂 
 High enough for me to give it a go! Sometimes I stare at my BitAxe trying to will it to win a block 🤣 
 Have you considered the fiat national lottery 😂 
 You're right! 

What a dumb ass I am.

I have updated the article.

Thank you 🙏 
 
 Not a dumbass at all! All these zeros are a lot, lol. You had the balls to put information out there and risk being wrong. That's not nothing! 
 I’ve kept the hash rate, which was correct at time of publishing 
 I'm guessing you sent the 2K Sats to my wallet.
