@SatStackingPleb @Toine @npub12qeu...8e8x @Solosatoshi.com 🇺🇸 Decided to do this rather than from the fan port for the 12v power to the Vonets wifi adapter off the control board. These Vonets handle between 5-24v depending on the model but usually range 5-15v without the need for a step-down adapter. Feeds power directly from the 6-pin socket on the bottom. What do you think? Anyone see any issue with doing this on LOKI builds?

Uggg, #Bitcoin #HeatPunk life. Accidentally ripped a pad off my Loki Lite @PivotalPlebTech kit trying to test a different board. Guess that socket was a little snug - this has never happened before. Guess I know what I want for Christmas 🎄 😅 to fix my bench testing unit. image

Added a new washable 1” air filter to my #Bitaxe Gamma. Keeps the gamma pristine with a minuscule reduction of airflow. White PLA helps easily detect cleaning cycles Adding additional filters to my other solo miners today.

Next AntMiner S19J Pro+ #Bitcoin LOKI heater incoming for this 🇨🇦 #HeatPunk Printed with @BambulabGlobal Navy Blue ABS filament paired with White Arctic P12 Max fans. I have to say, this navy blue build looks refined & stylish compared to my regular black boxes. A few more hours of printing, some cable work & PSU upgrades & it’s ready. Another 25-30 TH/s of solo mining incoming. Thanks to @tylerkstevens & @SpaceDenver crew for the encouragement & inspiration.

Newest #Bitcoin AntMiner S19J Pro+ #HeatPunk LOKI space heater! Built custom for my 85 year old dad to upgrade from his S9 space heater. He wanted something small, quiet & powerful. Printed with #BambulabGlobal ABS filament. Tuned down to only 650w (since his home has limited power & amps) but making ~19 TH/s (still tuning performance on LuxOS Thanks to Altair & PivotalPlebTech for the parts & @Toine for the inspiration.

Just rescued this little @npub16xch...tgyj #Bitaxe gamma 601 from a local pleb that didn't want it for only $91 🇺🇸 - didn't have the heart to see it wasted. Added another 1.2+ TH/s to solo mining to my @Umbrel ☂️ #Bitcoin node tonight & finally solo (lottery) mining over 50TH/s Zero TH/s = Zero Chance image

Bitcoiners, It’s at the point now that we all need to consider the following: #1 self-custodial spending wallet with both sats & BTC like @AQUA Wallet @Wallet of Satoshi or @BULLBITCOIN.COM (even better with in-app atomic swaps to LiquidBTC & USDT). #2 small travel wallet like @Tangem - a common form factor (card) that isn’t noticeable or trigger questions from Immigration officials (unlike common dedicated mainstream hardware wallets). Low key OPsec but still protected. #3 known KYC hardware wallet that all exchange purchases, sales & activities which are subject to capital gains tax & reporting. (address declared & known to authorities) #4 completely segregated non-KYC wallet that never has sats or on-chain BTC mixed from your other wallets. This is a mining hardware wallet, a peer-to-peer bitcoin receiving wallet. You should enforce plausible deniability on it. Have a decoy number of transactions & balance without a passphrase - just seed. Under duress people can access the limited (sub 0.1 worth of bitcoin). On the same hardware wallet & seed phrase a hidden passphrase wallet with your bag Just stuff I’m thinking about. As the value of Bitcoin climes & tax authorities coming knocking, you don’t want to mix KYC & non-KYC sats IMO. What do you think?

Some people think solo (lottery) mining Bitcoin is a waste of time & hardware cost. I don’t see it that way. I’m a #heatpunk & heat my home, my dad’s home & a local non-profit with Bitcoin because we have to pay for heat regardless during winter. I mine to my own full node using DATUM & although my total TH/s is just a drop in the @ocean_mining - that’s the entire point. I do my part, even if it means being altruistic, to ensure decentralization of Bitcoin with my own nodes & personal hashrate. Zero TH/s = zero chance Bitcoin is worth mining for many reasons & my sub-100TH/s home mining still matters in the vision of #Satoshi image

After setting up my Canaan Avalon Mini 3 as my latest solo mining heater, I’m incredibly impressed with the TH/s power, quietness & build quality. Specification: 37.5T | 800W | 21.3J/T Cooling System: Air-cooling I’m planning to save up for the Avalon Q (90TH/s) to replace my old S9 @CryptoCloaks™ inspired space heaters that I’ve had for years. Going to donate the Noctua upgraded S9’s to a local charity I orange-pilled that want space heating & are new to the Bitcoin #heatpunk vision.
