Tiny 500Gh home Bitcoin mining device produced a block, earning over $200K BTC
The device, called a ‘Bitaxe,’ successfully mined a block even though its chances were only 1 out of 1 billion every ten minutes.
A Bitcoin mining device with a hashrate of only 500 gigahashes per second (Gh/s) managed to mine a block on July 24, according to an X post from Bitcoin mining device retailer Altair Technology. The block is worth approximately $206,000 based on the current Bitcoin price.
“Congratulations to the miner who likely mined the first solo BTC block with a Bitaxe on @ckpooldev with ~500 Gh hashrate!” the post stated.
The device, called a “Bitaxe,” and produced by D-Central Technologies, is approximately the size of a human hand, as shown by YouTube channel “How Much?”
