Buy the Bitaxe Gamma: The Most Efficient Open-Source ASIC Home Miner<\/h3>\n

Do you want to get seriously involved in Bitcoin solo mining without the compromise of a closed-source Bitmain miner, but with ASIC performance? The Bitaxe Gamma is the fifth generation of the Bitaxe project and combines the BM1370 chip (the same chip found in the Antminer S21 Pro) with fully open-source hardware and a simple browser interface. BitcoinStuffStore is an official EU reseller of Bitaxe, so you\u2019re not buying through AliExpress but from a store that knows what it\u2019s selling.<\/p>\n

The Bitaxe Gamma achieves a hashrate of approximately 1.1 TH\/s with a power consumption of approximately 18 watts. This currently makes the BM1370 one of the most efficient ASIC chips on the market for home use. By comparison, the NerdMiner achieves 77 KH\/s at 5 to 10 watts. The Gamma has over 14 million times more hash power at three times the power consumption and three times the price. If you\u2019re serious about solo mining, this is where you start.<\/p>\n

I run the miners myself, and the Bitaxe Gamma is on my desk.<\/p>\n

Open source from top to bottom<\/h4>\n

The Bitaxe project (GitHub: skot\/bitaxe) is fully open source and part of OSMU: the schematics, PCB files and firmware are all publicly available. This means you do not depend on a manufacturer that can change its software or discontinue its services. You can repair, update or improve the Gamma yourself. That is the difference with a Bitmain miner: with the Gamma, the hardware is yours in the most direct sense of the word.<\/p>\n

The AxeOS web interface makes setup easy. You connect the Gamma to your network via WiFi, open the web interface in your browser using the device's IP address, and enter your pool settings and wallet address. No command line, no SSH, no special software required. For detailed setup instructions and firmware version advice, see the Bitaxe Gamma Firmware Guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Bitaxe Gamma offers the best price-performance ratio for an ASIC solo miner. Need more hashrate? The NerdQaxe++<\/a> combines four BM1370 chips for 4.8 TH\/s. For a comprehensive comparison, see the article Bitaxe Gamma vs. NerdQaxe++<\/a>. As an entry-level person who just from the NerdMiner T-Display S3<\/a> Looking to upgrade, the Gamma is the logical next step.<\/p>\n
