Yep the Bitaxe is configured to solo mine by default. If you want a steady trickle of a few sats (and I mean a trickle - this is not a money maker) you need to point it to eg. Braiins or another mining pool. Plenty of resources out there on how to configure.

Fantastic. I never thought the trickle config was even an option, so this is new to me -I'll go hunt down the details. I can guarantee I'll hit more sats than I have blocks, so something is better than nothing - and it's really just to show my kids how it works. Thanks!
I got both Bitaxe pointed to #Braiins and my lightning wallet configured pretty easy. Looks like 30-80 sats per day potentially! Not life changing but it will fund zaps!
