Can someone suggest a good ASIC miner?

It should be low maintenance, preferably a little bit silent. Earning is not the goal; I'm doing it as a hobby. What would be a good starting point where I can also learn?

I've an S9 ant miner and it has been pretty straight foward. Since I have it in the backyard didn't change the fans for Noctunas. With stock fans can be pretty annoying.

It's been up and running for more than 3 months and I haven't mess with it since then.

Agreed the S9 is the best for low cost and with a fan change can be pretty silent

I think this is exactly what I want. Thanks for recommendation.

You’re welcome man πŸ«‚

get a couple s9s

I think your are looking for a bitaxe. Do you know that project?

I have heard about that but haven't really delved into it. What is special about it?

Open source software and hardware. Its the only real open source mining project. You can use chips from S9 and other miners to build your bitaxe and learn during all the process

I also looked it up on Google. It really seems like a great option. Thanks.

S9 from kaboom racks + the noctua fans listed here ( https://www.cryptocloaks.com/product/s9-bitcoin-space-heater-bundle/ ) will get you to a reasonable 55ish decibels with no enclosure.

This. Don't get better than this for low cost hashing and noise

I'm sending my S9 back for a refund. If you want it as a project, give me an offer. It has nocturna (sp?) fans and a wifi dongle.

Bitaxe is the way.

Antminer T17. Can run on 120v so no extra wiring/electrical setup needed.

I bought mine from d-central, they had a black Friday deal at the time. https://d-central.tech/
