Do bitaxes really only mine 100 sats per day
I should have checked this before I bought 5

Thatβs generational wealth right there right there
Go in SOLO and play the Sat Lotto.
You could win and then be a king.
No pussy footing. Go in SOLO.
I heard many say 50-75 depending on its hashrate
CKpool. All or nothing baby LFG!
Wait really? Itβs 100 sats still? That canβt be right
Yeah, miners have long payoff per asic chip. Bitaxe are even worse because they have full controllers and power supplies to buy per single asic chip. Best for learning and lottery mining.
You run a node which isn't profitable to help secure the network. Solo mine with the bitaxe. Then think of your bitaxes kind of like that node except they might pay off huge.
100 sats! How many nanosats is that?
Every sat is sacred!
Solo mining is the only way. It won't pay itself back with pool mining, not in sats opportunity cost terms at least. Solo and trying to get lucky is the way because the electricity bill is negligible.
It's clearly a toy, people expecting to get rich with it better go play lottery or go to the casino...
The good new is, your Bitaxe will cover your daily zapping.
If someone asks if mining is a good idea. Tell them to get a bitaxe. Tell them to report back to you in a month. Then tell them to thank you from saving them from spending thousands on mining rigs and to use the rest of the money to stack sats. Low cost education lol.
Whew I got very lucky mining with Ocean from the very beginning payouts were big before halving. But I still havenβt recouped total expenses but close. I started Oct 30
Mining is all about using waste heat or stranded electric. If you aren't tied into one of those or winning the lotto solo mining you are going to get fewer sats than buying on the open market.
My s19 heated my house all winter. Paid for itself and future winters sats are all profit.
I'm also planning to build a food dehydrator and a fish tank heater out of miners. I was using the electric anyway so 100% of sat rewards are profit.

He even used a miner to make maple syrup.
Others are heating pools, hot tubs, home hot water, and greenhouses.
It isn't that mining is unprofitable, it is that you didn't do the work to figure out how to profit and thought you could just turn on any random miner on residential electric rates and get a free ride.
Am s9 is cheaper than a bit axe and much more useful in general. Plus, when you're ready to upgrade to an s19, the PSU can be utilized with a Loki chip to continue to mine on 110v power. S9 still the goat when it comes to getting started mining.

Thanks for this. I was going to invest on it and this saved me! U rock! πͺπ
If Iβm understanding what you are communicating, I think it is similar conclusion when I was mining $KAS #kaspa #pow
There is the moral belief behind it (for lack of better statement) and contributing to the security of the network
vs
its certainly more cost effective to just buy the already mined tokensβ¦
brah...
i've considered getting an s9 to stack privately since all the US ATMs seem to KYC and primary income is still in fiat. maybe there's a better way thats not a meetup scenario like a join via mixer?
But you are doing the Lordβs work
