Bitaxe Ultra

Description

Bitaxe Ultra is a fully open-source Bitcoin ASIC miner equipped with the BM1366 ASIC chip from Antminer’s S19XP. This design ensures efficient and powerful mining capabilities, achieving 500 GH/s at an energy efficiency of 20 J/TH. It operates using a 5V DC power supply connected via a 2.5/5.5mm barrel jack connector.

At the core of Bitaxe Ultra is the combination of ESP-miner and AxeOS, an open-source firmware that empowers you with full control over your mining operations. The intuitive web interface simplifies setting adjustments and performance monitoring, making mining more accessible and streamlined.

Features:

• Utilizes the BM1366 chip from Bitmain.
• Requires a 5V power supply with at least 4A.
• Operates exclusively on 2.4GHz wifi.
• Easy configuration through the AxeOS portal.
• Built-in configuration website for monitoring miner operational parameters, logs, and performing firmware updates.

As a Bitcoin enthusiast, mining with Bitaxe means that you’re making a significant contribution towards decentralizing Bitcoin mining, thereby strengthening the network’s resilience and integrity

While Bitaxe Ultra’s current mining capabilities position it as a solo miner, compatible with any solo mining pool, it’s important to manage expectations regarding its performance. Mining a block independently with Bitaxe Ultra is a challenging and highly improbable task. Due to its relatively modest mining power compared to larger setups, the likelihood of discovering a block before other more powerful miners is extremely low.
