I mined with braiins when I was a miner.

Why no bitaxe?
I don't want to play the loto. I'll just stack more sats instead. My nodes make the rules anyways.
You don't sound poor, open source mining hardware needs your support 🤟
I did think about building and selling them. I have the technical know how to setup a site and process bitcoin payments. But my plate is full and I have no time for a side gig rn. Maybe on e day in the future. I always wanted a brick and mortar Bitcoin store with Bitcoin books, hardware wallets, education and other high end good like art from madex, clothing from west major and leather goods leathermint and stuff like hodlbutter, tallow soap honey and coffee from oshi soapminer and various others. I would certainly have a few bitaxes in stock. My kids are 2 and 4. Maybe when they're a little more independent and I have a bigger nest egg to fall back on.
Sounds like a dope pursuit even if it's just for your kids' education!
I would run one and be thrilled to receive one as a gift though! The bitaxe IS a super awesome project.
