Oddbean new post about login | logout I don't think we're far off 17k BitAxes out there. Wouldn't surprise me if a solo block is found within half a year.
This is the future I want. Bitaxe isn't the only one either, HeatBit has a good few units out there too. Currently it's pool-only, but maybe you could eventually switch to solo-miner mode.
i really wanna support heatbit but wont til they allow pool choosing right now believe just mines to nicehash and then you get some cut of that.
Yeah, huge downside, but it sounds like pool selection is on the roadmap.

nicehash rugged me of 2017 value of ~1000 euros back in the day, i refuse to do business with them, and anyone who does is helping a parasitic cabal (not unlike also bitfinex) have rugged people to cover their losses and then used that fraudulent gain to maintain their market dominance it's disgusting, and i'm not participating in this sickness
damn that sucks, sorry to hear that friend
yeah i had pretty bad luck at chasing gainz i got wiped out for like 2000 in the bitfinex hack also 2021 "myminershop" rugged me for 3k worth of "bitcoin miners" suffice it to say i'm super skeptical and after Terra/Luna/Celsius et al i went full hard core maxi, realising that i'd totally utterly made a mistake due to high time preference, and being in the dev business, all the shitcoiners wanting the trendy hip #rust language to build their "smart" contracts with, which in programmer language actually is "shitty embedded programming for stupid financial ledgers that can be rugged at any moment" this is why i'm so toxic about rust, in case you all didn't understand that just go look at shitcoin dev sites, rust, rust, rust, and yes, rust! for avalanche, solana, internet computer, near, you name it, even cosmos adopted this shit, after being originally golang maxis
Didn't know HeatBit, but that's in a different price category, similar to FutureBit. Price x 10 is market / 10. What's nice to see is they pop up in wide price and power ranges.
The cool thing about heatbit is they're engineered to work as low-noise heater/air purifier combos, so they're really no expensive than a normal appliance, but give you free sats.
Reading their website, looks like a premium device with a combination of heating and air purification. Watching the teardown now. They also have a good copy-writer, there's some funny stuff on there. 😄 https://m.primal.net/Irpd.png
