Discussion
I was just checking out Ocean to use with my Bitaxe but decided to mine on self hosted solo pool instead. Should I be more seriously considering Ocean? With ~4TH/s I figure I’m better off playing the lottery than getting a few dozen sats every few days…
IMO solo mining is the way to go with a bitaxe.
However it’s fun to mine on Ocean if only to experience the randomness and joy of sharing the small winnings of a block found. I think that randomness is a great teaching moment for people new to bitcoin.
As we move into this new area of increasing TH/s low cost micro miners things are going to get very interesting - both for solo mining and Ocean datum mining (where you build the block template).
A bitaxe is gonna find a block and people will be stunned.
A Bitaxe actually did find a block, which is why I figured why the hell not and sprang for a $500 SupraHex with 4+ TH.
I used to mine Vertcoin on my GPU and wished I had the power and noise isolation to mine Bitcoin at home (small apartment life) so I thought it was pretty sweet when these low power, near silent Bitcoin miners came about. My AxeOS dashboard reports I’m pulling about 90W and it’s whisper quiet. Decentralization is fun.
I forgot about this.
