I’ve been testing ...the 12 TH/s Octaxe Hydro Bitcoin miner for over 6 days, and this thing is definitely one of the coolest-looking small Bitcoin miners I’ve tested.

The Octaxe Hydro uses a water-cooling system with dual radiators and pumps, a 350W Mean Well power supply, XT60 connection with a 35A fuse, and runs on Wi-Fi with no Ethernet connection. I’m also solo mining Bitcoin to my own local node to see how consistently this 12 TH/s miner performs.

At around 224W, the Octaxe Hydro is running at roughly 18–19 J/TH. It may not match the efficiency of newer and more expensive Bitcoin miners, but the hydro cooling, compact design, and relatively low power consumption make this an interesting small-scale solo miner.

I’ll also go over whether the $440 USD price makes sense, the older BM1370 ASIC chips, stock overclock settings, temperatures, and whether you should consider solo mining Bitcoin or other SHA-256 coins such as Bitcoin Cash.

And there’s a Hammer Miner DC06 giveaway thanks to Helium Deploy!

GPU mining is profitable again?! After shutting down and leaving a huge amount of my GPU mining hardware sitting around, I’m finally turning some of my old rigs back on.

Pearl & Quantus is currently making GPU mining interesting again, and some of my 170HX GPUs are doing extremely well. I’m also testing my old CMP210 and BC160 rigs, dealing with a VERY dirty GPU mining rig, and finding out which hardware is actually worth running right now.

My 170HX rig is currently making around $22/day while using roughly 1.5 kW, while the BC160 rig is making only around $3/day. I’ve also got more GPUs sitting around that could potentially be brought back online.

But does that mean I recommend getting into GPU mining again?

Probably not.

If you already own the GPUs, motherboards, risers, frames, CPUs and power infrastructure, the numbers can make sense right now. But buying everything from scratch just because GPU mining has become profitable again is a completely different story.

I’ll keep testing these old rigs and see how long this profitability lasts.

I bought another Blake2B XBT Bitcoin ASIC miner… and I honestly expected it to be DEAD ON ARRIVAL.

This $900 IBLink BM-S3 arrived in absolutely disgusting condition. It's covered in dust, dirt, and whatever else this thing has been through — but somehow, it actually powers on and starts mining!

The IBLink BM3 is supposed to do around 19 TH/s at roughly 3,100 watts, and after several hours of testing, mine was averaging around 17.6 TH/s.

But that's not even the craziest part of this video.

My Goldshell SC5 Pro 11 TH/s has already generated nearly $27,000+ worth of Bitcoin through Mining Rig Rentals, including a recent rental that paid 0.293 BTC.

I'm also showing an update on my Goldshell SC6 that won't power on, and why I believe the power supply is the problem.

We're also talking about the growing number of Blake2B Bitcoin mining pools and the importance of decentralizing the network hash rate.

And yes… I'm still giving away a FluMiner L2! To enter, simply leave a comment about anything discussed in this video. I'll choose the winner in about 7 days and announce it in my Discord.

Thanks for watching and supporting Red Panda Mining!

I bought THREE ...Goldshell Bitcoin Blake2B miners… but these were definitely not all in the same condition!

I picked up a brand-new Goldshell SC5 Pro 2 and two heavily used Goldshell SC6 17 TH/s miners. The SC5 Pro 2 was extremely clean, while the two SC6s arrived looking heavily used, dirty and covered in rust.

Before putting them into my mining rack, I decided to clean the used SC6 miners and inspect the hashboards. Surprisingly, the hashboards actually looked much cleaner than expected.

But then came the moment of truth…

One of the SC6 miners powered on and started mining. The other one? Absolutely nothing. No lights, no fans, no power.

I suspect the 3,300W/3,400W power supply may have failed, so I'm now looking for a replacement to hopefully bring this 17 TH/s Bitcoin miner back to life.

I also put my SC6 on a solo-mining setup and pointed my SC5 Pro 2 toward Rabid Mining's new pool to help provide some hash rate.

With the Blake2B/BIP-110 Bitcoin mining network still evolving rapidly, profitability has also changed dramatically since the network launched.

I've got two more Blake2B miners coming as well, so this mining experiment is definitely not over yet!

⚠️ Not financial advice. Mining profitability changes constantly, and mining hardware involves significant risk.

The NVIDIA 170HX GPU is getting another potentially HUGE unlock — and this one could take PCIe bandwidth from Gen 2 to Gen 3!

A new software/fuse-based unlock is being developed that could potentially unlock PCIe Gen 3 on the 170HX. Early testing appears to show dramatically higher PCIe bandwidth, but there is a major warning: the developer has delayed the release because the required fuse process could potentially brick cards.

So I'm NOT trying it on my entire collection yet!

I've already unlocked my 170HX GPUs to 64GB of VRAM, and I've been experimenting with using these cards for AI compute, inference, GPU rentals, and potentially training. If PCIe Gen 3 becomes stable, these GPUs could become even more interesting for AI workloads.

I currently have a large number of 170HX GPUs, and their prices have already climbed significantly. Some modified cards are selling around $2,700, and if the Gen 3 unlock works reliably, I think the market could potentially push these cards even higher.

I'm also currently renting some of my 170HX GPUs for roughly $1 per day, while the current AI compute market suggests these cards could potentially earn significantly more when rented for AI workloads.

In this video I cover:

• The new 170HX PCIe Gen 3 unlock
• Why the fuse-based unlock is currently delayed
• The risk of potentially bricking the GPU
• Early PCIe bandwidth testing
• My 64GB 170HX GPUs
• The capacitor modification
• Why PCIe bandwidth matters for AI
• 170HX GPU prices going up
• Renting 170HX GPUs for AI compute
• Vast and AI cloud rental pricing
• Why I may keep my 170HX GPUs instead of selling them
• The possibility of 170HX GPUs competing with higher-end AI GPUs

In this video, we're taking a look at what's happening across several major ASIC-minable cryptocurrencies, including Kaspa (KAS), Dash (DASH), Zcash (ZEC), Fractal Bitcoin (FB) and Bitcoin Blake2b.

Kaspa has been showing some life recently, and with hash rate coming off the network, some Kaspa ASIC miners are becoming profitable again. I take a look at miners like the Bitmain KS7 and KS5 Pro and whether the current profitability is actually enough to justify turning them back on.

Zcash has also gone on an absolutely massive run, with Zcash ASIC profitability looking extremely attractive right now. But does that mean you should rush out and buy an $8,000-$10,000 Zcash miner? I'm not convinced. We talk about the risks of FOMO, increasing network hash rate, new Z15 Pro/Z15K hardware and what could happen if more miners come online.

I'm also running more Bitcoin mining hardware, including six additional Antminer S21 XP miners. That brings my Bitcoin mining operation to around 8 PH/s currently, with plans to potentially reach 10 PH/s.

And then there's Fractal Bitcoin...

Fractal Bitcoin recently went through its first halving, cutting the block reward from 25 FB to 6.25 FB. However, some mining profitability calculators are still showing extremely high Fractal Bitcoin profitability. I take a look at why those numbers may not be accurate and whether miners moving huge amounts of hash rate toward Fractal Bitcoin could be making a mistake.

Plus, we have another update on Bitcoin Blake2b, including the recent hash rate cap on Alpha Pool and the push toward greater mining pool decentralization.

I've also got more Bitcoin Blake2b ASIC miners arriving, including Goldshell SC6 units, an SC5 Pro 2 and IBLink BM3 miners, so there will be plenty more mining tests coming soon.

Let me know what YOU think about Kaspa, Zcash, Dash, Fractal Bitcoin and Bitcoin Blake2b mining right now!

Bitfortun BS1 fake hashrate exposed: the BM1373 lottery miner shows 5.5 TH/s on the screen and dashboard, but ...the real hash rate is about 5.1 TH/s. The firmware adds +400 GH/s in code.

Huge credit to JD at Harlo Labs for finding the +400 GH/s offset in Bitfortun’s GitHub/firmware, and to Red Fox Crypto for catching the API reporting ~5,100 GH/s. I ran the BS1 on my local Public Pool (Umbrel) and the extra 400 GH/s never shows up at the pool.

In this video I show:
• Stock dashboard vs API vs pool hashrate
• The boot screen starting at 400 GH/s before the chip even ramps
• Why pool numbers fluctuate and why 3 hours is not enough to “see” 400 GH/s
• Comparison with my Bitfortun Octa / Octaxe on real open-source firmware
• What Helium Deploy said about compensation for false advertising
• Why custom Harlo Labs firmware (like they did for the Hammer P2) is the fix

This is not stolen hashrate — the chip is hashing. The display and dashboard are inflating the number. On a small lottery miner, 400 GH/s is a real % of the spec, not noise like a 3–5% swing on a big-boy Bitmain box.

If you own a Bitfortun BS1:
1. Check API / pool average, not just the screen
2. Watch for Helium Deploy’s compensation / listing update (they’ve already moved the product page toward 5.1 TH/s)
3. Wait for Harlo Labs firmware — flashing the ESP32 should be straightforward

I am not a firmware developer. I missed this on the first review because I treat small-miner variance like large ASIC variance. That was a mistake on this class of device. Every GH/s matters when people are buying “5.5 TH/s” lottery tickets.

Subscribe for the follow-up when Harlo Labs firmware drops and I flash this unit.
