Hey miners!

We’ve upgraded our historical mining calculator with the new LLAMA chat bot (llama-3.2-90b)! 🦙

Now, your results are fed into an LLM for context-aware analysis, delivering more relevant and tailored answers to your selected settings.

Ask questions like:

• “Why is my margin low?”
• “How can I improve my profitability?”
• “What do you think about my mining setup?”

🛠️ Note: It’s an early version, and we’re actively working to make the model smarter and more useful.

I have a question for those that have found a block.

What pool are you using and what diff are you set at on your miner?

Stratum diff or custom diff? d=xxxx? Or x as password.

I am buying a new computer and i was wondering if i could use my old one for mining.

is it even worth it to use that one for mining or will i lose more money on it ?
If i go for it, how do i do it? most info i find is about seperate miners you buy

edit: it can be either mining the BTC itself or get money deposited on a card just to pay my gas for car etc

Hi,

I can't seem to be able to load Braiins Os on my S9. I've followed the official guide, moved the jumper, flash the sd with balena etcher but once I plug it in I can't find it anymore with ip scanner, the 2 main board LED light are on constantly and the fans are 100% until I un plug it.

I've tried several different under 8g and under sd cards. but nothing works so far.

Does anybody have a suggestion ?

EDIT: I finaly managed to install it with a an older version of BOS Toolbox, thanks to u/ElectroBOOMFan1 for pointing it to me in another thread.

Enjoy 25% off all miner prices, now until the end of next week!

I’m relatively new to mining, and have only used nice hash for around half a year, however I want to move away from NH to AM. However, I’m having some difficulty setting it up and am wondering if anyone would be kind enough to walk me through it step by step.

I’m running an RX 7900 XT and a 13600KF. I want to be able to mine while I’m at school during the day.

If you could just send me a dm if you’re willing to help that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Hello r/BitcoinMining community!

We are excited to announce the launch of our Mod Verified Commercial Vendors Wiki, a new initiative to promote safe and trustworthy transactions within the Bitcoin mining community.

🔗 Check out the wiki here: Mod Verified Commercial Vendors

What’s in the Wiki?

​

• A list of commercial vendors verified by the r/BitcoinMining moderation team.
• Detailed guidelines on the verification process for vendors.
• Updates on newly verified vendors as they are added.

Vendor Verification Process

We’ve implemented a robust system to vet commercial vendors before they are listed:

​

1. Vendors must submit business details, proof of legitimacy, and customer references.
2. Moderators review all submissions and conduct independent checks.
3. Vendors who meet our standards will be added to the wiki with their contact and service details.

How to Get Verified

If you’re a vendor interested in being listed, please reach out to the moderation team via modmail. We’ll guide you through the application process.

Why This Matters

Scammers remain a challenge in the mining community. This wiki is a step towards building a safer space for buyers and sellers to connect with confidence.

We look forward to your feedback as we continue to improve this initiative. Thank you for being a part of our thriving community!

Happy mining,
The r/BitcoinMining Mod Team

Include location please.

Website specs say three phase but videos I watch about setting it up shows it plugging into normal 240v server rack PDUs. A bit confused, maybe I am missing something and there’s some 2 phase and some 3 phase models? Hard to tell from the bit main website. Thanks y’all

A good friend of mine recommended the Lucky Miner 7 for me to get my feet wet in the world of Bitcoin mining . He claims that the more you spend on a mining machine the more you can potentially make . This is my question : if mining is as simple as plugging in a few words and then letting the computer work , then why do Ivy league colleges have majors in this field ? I want to learn as much as I can about mining. I cannot believe there is not more to this as my friend believes . Wouldn't everyone be doing this if it were that simple ?

Hey all -- I'm curious how you all go about finding power at the above rate. I've been talking to a few utilities around the US (MN, IA, MS, and OK) as part of my work looking for BTC sites. I'm fairly new to the game, so I'm curious how you all get power down to a certain rate. Are there areas of the US where there are certain tariffs/ rates that are that low? Or do you all do time-of-use, demand-response programs, etc?

I know it's not going to super profitable , or profitable at all, but I'm just curious if I had 1000 bucks I could spend right now, give our take a little... what would be better than getting an Avalon 1346

Power is free, cooling isn't an issue I have a very cool area that it can live.

Cleaning out the closet but will always keep these powered PCIe risers. Finding these in 2013 during the gold rush was the ticket!

Anyone thinking of using NiceHash should review recent reddit posts here regarding how difficult they make their system to withdraw your earned BTC, in my opinion, with hopes you will give up so they can pocket it and supposedly "donate it to charity".

Like many others, I started receiving emails that NiceHash was now charging me BTC as some kind of maintenance fee for my account being inactive. NiceHash charges about $10 per month for the sin of taking up 1 kilobyte of data in their database. After two months I had noticed the emails that this was happening so decided to login and check on it. I had $315 worth of BTC (after $20 had been eaten by their fees of course).

I of course decided to immediately move the BTC somewhere less scammy but like all others, was met with 2FA requirements and KYC verifications to do basically anything on the account. Someone had mentioned that you don't have to do KYC if you close the account. I went down this route because I'm not jumping through their many hoops and pitfalls. I created a Lightning Network wallet to withdraw to and their system allowed me to progress all the way through to submitting the lightning invoice, and then fails because the account needs 2FA. I enabled that and then am locked out for 3 days before it allows any further actions. Ok.

Three days later I attempt the exact same steps again by going to close account which then directs to withdraw. Except this time, the account just immediately closes with the only message being an email to me that says the account is now closed. Can no longer login to it. Welp, where did my BTC go? Opened a ticket with support to be told that I "chose to donate the BTC to charity on account closing". LOL! What? Now they want me to submit a selfie holding a sign with my personal information like it's a reddit AMA or something AND complete the KYC process, to then ALSO charge me $10 as an "administration fee" to restore the account and "recover" the funds "donated" to "charity".

Nothing during this process states anything about charity. So it appears that NiceHash has this convoluted system setup to thieve as much BTC as possible from people that used to use their service back in its hayday.

NiceScam indeed. Unfortunately the mods at r/NiceHash are deleting all mentions of this and trying to rug sweep it.

I also get a significant discount on electricity. Someone tell me what to do ? Is there a step by step pdf ? Pretend I’m 90 and need to be told to turn the power on.

Hi all. Long time lurker, been amassing data for a while, but now looking at relatively low cost mining. The USB miners and heatbit caught my eye in terms or usable household items I can get away with, without having a whole garage dedicated to racks and miners. Are those worth the effort? I know they won’t make millions overnight, but just looking so see if worth doing.

🚫 No Cloud Mining Posts, Comments, or Referral Links Allowed – Violators Will Be Banned! 🚫

Hi everyone,

This is a reminder that cloud mining posts, comments, and referral links are strictly prohibited in r/bitcoinmining. Any content related to cloud mining will result in an immediate ban.

What is cloud mining and why is it banned?

1. Cloud mining refers to renting mining power from a third-party provider. While it may sound appealing, cloud mining often comes with high fees, unreliable returns, and the risk of being a scam. These services are typically not transparent and offer no control over the mining process.

2. Bitcoin mining involves owning and operating your own hardware (such as ASICs or GPUs) to mine directly on the Bitcoin network. This requires a significant upfront investment but offers more control and transparency.

We do not allow discussions of cloud mining services here, as they fall outside the scope of legitimate Bitcoin mining topics. Additionally, if you share a referral link for any cloud mining service or similar operation, you will be banned from the community immediately.

Please help us maintain the integrity of the r/bitcoinmining community by sticking to discussions about actual Bitcoin mining with your own equipment.

Thank you,
r/bitcoinmining Moderation Team

I first will say that I am not new to crypto as far as trading/using at all, but I have never in any way had any experience and have no knowledge of mining crypto of anykind, so I apologize if i sound like a moron here.

I recently acquired 7 brand new "mini pc's" they are made in china, and the specs on them are 32g memory, amd ryzen 7 5700 processors, 1tb hard drives, and a wifi 6/2.5g LAN, they are "bossgame effizen" and i found they sell new online for about 350 to 400 bucks.

(i got them cleaning out a storage unit)

A few questions, and I seriously thank in advance for any advice, answers or insite on how to do if it is at all worth doing...

Can I mine ANY crypto of any kind with these, if so which coins, and what could I realisticly expect as far as results across what length of time?

Again, I apologize if the mere thought of using these is dumb and or impossible, and thank all who respond for their time!

I'm planning to buy an ASIC miner. I tend to an Antminer L9 (SCRYPT), because the profit is very high now. But the miner cost a small fortune compared to an Antminer S21 (SHA256) Is the L9 worth the high price?

I don't want just a short hype and the miner should stay profitable for some time. What is more futureproof SCRYPT or SHA256?

Hello. I was given an antminer S9 and a box of bits I have it setup on f2pool. Is it worth even trying to mine considering the price of electricity in the UK or am I better just buying bitcoin?

I'm a noob at ASIC mining and now I'm trying to find ways of making them cooler. I have 5 Whatsminer M30S++ and they're usually at 85 to 93 Celsius. That's too high.

At the end of this page, I found a fast way of solving that problem while I can work on another one. The website says to put frozen bottled water near the fans:

Take out the frozen bottled water from the refrigerator and place it 10cm away from the miner. Then use an ordinary electric fan to blow cold air into the air inlet to dissipate heat. Tip: Put a plate underneath to collect the dew on the bottle.

What do you guys think about it? May it work? Any risks?
