⬇️ Home Mining Optimization Project Note ⬇️

Ever since I got my first BitAxe, I’ve been looking for my own solutions on how to overclock, optimize, and increase daily rewards without going down the generic route of upgrading cooling or manually tinkering with frequency and voltage settings.

I thought why not try writing a python script to optimize a miner in real time. I had a raspberry pi lying around so I figured I’d write the script, deploy it on my raspberry pi, and watch it hash harder… so that’s exactly what I did.

✅ Here’s what it does (so far):

- Automatically detects BitAxes across my network on system boot

- Reads live chip temperature every 30 seconds ➡️ adjusts settings to ramp up or ramp down

- With a smart plug, shuts the BitAxe down at 68 degrees C, lets it cool down for 5 minutes, and reboots to prevent overheating

- Capable of controlling 100+ BitAxes over the same network. Breaks into parallel threads at 5 or more miners to keep up with monitoring chip temps at 30 second intervals

-Web dashboard to see which miners are connected + real time stats

So far, I’ve seen an increase in my average hashrate, an increase in my energy efficiency, and a significant increase in my daily mining rewards.

There is much more to come, but I want to put together plug n play kits for anybody wanting to run the same setup. Pre-flashed raspberry pi, smart plug, and ethernet.
