Solo mining sits in an odd but appealing space within Bitcoin, where owning a single machine still gives someone a genuine, if small, shot at the full block reward. Asicmarketplace has put together a lineup that spans nearly every budget and skill level, and looking at ten of the units currently listed gives a good sense of just how wide that range is.
At 17 watts and 1.2 TH/s, the Bitaxe Gamma 601 barely registers on a power bill, which is probably why it’s become such a common entry point for someone new to solo mining who just wants to see how the whole thing works before spending more. Not far off, the Lucky Miner LV07 runs 25 watts for 1 TH/s, a similar low-stakes option that plenty of buyers pick up as their very first unit.
From there, the jump to the Bitaxe Gamma Turbo GT 801 brings 2.15 TH/s at 43 watts, a meaningful upgrade in output without asking for much extra electricity. The Bitaxe Supra Hex 701 goes further still, sitting at 90 watts for 4.2 TH/s, and tends to appeal to buyers who’ve already run a smaller Bitaxe and want more hashrate before committing to a much larger setup.
The Canaan Avalon Nano 3S pushes further, pulling 140 watts for 6 TH/s, and stands out as a solid pick for someone serious about mining crypto at home on a semi-permanent basis. Right alongside it, the NerdMiner NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 delivers the same 6 TH/s at a lower 100 watts, giving buyers a genuine efficiency choice between two very comparable machines.
Moving into mid-range territory, the Magicminer BG02 runs at 150 watts and 7 TH/s, a dependable option that doesn’t ask for anything unusual in terms of setup or ventilation. The NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe steps ahead again at 160 watts for 9.6 TH/s, a machine that starts to feel less like a toy and more like a real contender in a solo mining pool.
At the top of this particular group sits the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 Hydro, running 12 TH/s at just 190 watts thanks to its liquid cooling setup, a smart pick for anyone planning extended runtimes without worrying about thermal throttling. And for those chasing the best solo mining odds available, the Canaan Avalon Q sits well above the rest at 1674 watts and 90 TH/s, a serious piece of hardware for a serious home miner.
Taken together, these ten units show that ASIC Marketplace isn’t just stocking one type of buyer. There’s room here for someone dipping a toe in for the first time and equally for someone building out a dedicated solo miner setup with real hashpower behind it.
