The NerdMinerv2 has the iconic form factor of a Bitmain S9 and only consumes around 1W, which is less than 3 euros in electricity costs per year.

The main goal of this project is to teach you more about Bitcoin mining and have a nice piece of hardware on your desktop.

  1. NerdMiner Screen : Displays mining data from Nerdminer.

You also need an internet connection via WiFi and a Bitcoin wallet address to operate.

You can get a Bitcoin wallet address for free from crypto exchanges.
