The odds, honestly

At the current network difficulty of 1.262e+14, a Bitaxe Supra 401 is expected to find a block roughly once every 24.54K years. That is an average across infinite attempts, not a countdown — a block could come tomorrow, or never.

Hardware plus power. This is what the ticket costs you, win or lose.

If you pooled instead

Point the same device at a normal mining pool and you would receive the statistical average steadily instead of gambling on it: about $0.0000 a month, against $1.86 of electricity. At your electricity rate that loses money — every 35 sats mined costs $0.0612 in power. Buying the same BTC on an exchange would be cheaper.

About Bitaxe

The reference open-source solo miner, designed by Skot and maintained by Open Source Miners United. Bitaxe is a hardware design rather than a company: many vendors build and sell boards from the same public schematics, so quality and price vary by builder.
