Bitaxe - New model and revolutionary accessories

The open source Bitcoin mining project BitAxe from skot has greatly enriched solo and home mining. New models are constantly appearing that increasingly increase the efficiency and hash performance of the Bitcoin network, arouse the curiosity of those interested in the mining process and promote the decentralized nature of Bitcoin mining.

Although the probability of finding a block with the BitAxe miners is extremely low, the first block found by a BitAxe miner has proven that it is not zero. This has further increased interest in the BitAxe project.

Recently, the latest model of the BitAxe series and revolutionary accessories were presented.

The hash performance and efficiency of the new bitaxeGamma can be further increased with additional gadgets. Developer MolonLabe has designed a modern immersion cooling system called ImmergeAxe especially for the BitAxe models. He developed the prototype in November 2023, and now the first ten production models are available for sale in very limited numbers on the SoloSatoshi platform.

The cooling system not only significantly reduces the operating temperature, it also insulates the BitAxe miner from dust and other environmental influences. This can extend the service life of the miner and reduce maintenance requirements, and also enables easy overclocking of the performance and thus an increase in hash rate and efficiency. The BitAxe Ultra, which operates at 425 gigahash per second (GH/s) as standard, could already be overclocked to 1.2 TH/s in the ImmergeAxe cooling system, which corresponds to the standard performance of the bitaxeGamma or almost twice the performance of the BitAxe Supra.

Eliminating traditional air cooling also means minimizing energy waste, so the home mining process with the ImmergeAxe not only increases performance, but is also more environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

Due to the lack of traditional air cooling, the operating volume is also significantly quieter or "virtually silent", according to the article description. This means that the system can also be installed as a decorative element in all living and working areas.

This system represents a shift towards more sustainable and efficient mining practices and uses the advantages of liquid immersion cooling to optimize Bitcoin mining operations.
_{Excerpt from the article description}

The system is water and UV-resistant and has a temperature sensor for overheating protection and a rain sensor that activates the conversion of the solar panel into an umbrella for the BitAxe.

SolarBit is expected to be available from November 2024. MolonLabe also plans to publish the hardware list and 3D print files in due course to promote further solar-powered open source Bitcoin mining projects.
