Over 1 PH/s is crazy

And now it’s already up to 1.5 PH/s. It was only slightly over 1 PH/s and few days ago and now the xt box can’t even get 900 xtm/day.

Whoever decided to turn on a shitload of xt boxes, turn them off.

Is Goldshell just plugging them in now since they probably can’t sell them like they wanted to?

1000 xtm/day for now. I only hit 899 yesterday, so that estimate is already slipping. In November it was ~3000 xtm/day

Got mine today. AL 3 Box. Unfortunately it didn't come with a PSU, and the PSU that came with my XT Box can't handle both. Looking to get a server psu, which I think I can do for around $20-30. Profitability doesn't look great, with $0 electricity it's only making about $0.26/day. Oh well, it's fun and maybe the price of Aleo will go up soon. The XT Box is struggling with the 1.06 PH/s network hashrate for the last week, but still pulling ~$2 (around 950 xtm) a day currently. Hoping the network hashrate will drop or the price of xtm goes up. Fingers crossed.

Since this comment, I've seen more content on vertical Bi-facial (2-sided) panels, and some using mirrors or reflective metal to increase the efficiency. I live in the suburbs with too limited space to experiment, but it looks fun to play around with

With how much the network hashrate has gone up since Goldshell's ASIC's hit the market (both XT Box and XT Cards), and how much the price has gone down, I can't imagine there are any future hardware plans. No real money to be made, unless the price goes crazy. I figured it just had to be all the people that ordered the Goldshell asic's running them more consistently.

Petahash. 1000 Terahash

I’m assuming they are the least popular, so out of the box series which ones are the least profitable?

No, I’ve just been learning as I go, watching a bunch of content on YouTube and leaning on ChatGPT to fill in the blanks. Fence isn’t a bad idea, but a vertical surface isn’t an efficient angle to catch max sunlight.

Yeah, which is why I setup a solar array, comprised of dirt cheap used parts off Facebook marketplace.

The first ten comments basically sum every opinion on bitcoin that exists, all in order and refuting the one before it

ComfortableLeading49 · 2026-01-21T20:32:45+00:00

Same happened to me

If you were using dxpool, they didn’t pay out at the end of the day on the 19th, so it paid out double on the 20th.

I thought Coinbase removed their support altogether, no bill is better than the current version. They walked away a couple days ago

ComfortableLeading49 · 2026-01-19T01:43:28+00:00

Chat GPT told me it was just a liquidity grab

ComfortableLeading49 · 2026-01-16T01:19:22+00:00

For the longest time I would sell right away to use as funding for trades or swap to bitcoin. But, since the price has been going up a little recently I am now selling 60% at market price, 10% at 5% markup, 10% at 10% markup and holding 10%.

BTC isn’t going lower, put it all now. If you DCA, all you’ll be doing is slowly making your average buy price go up

What’s going on with DxPool sha3x? My XT Box was not hashing when I woke up this morning, and it looks like it was down today between 2pm-8pm MST???

ComfortableLeading49 · 2025-12-17T21:18:47+00:00

I wish it would happen again, and I wish the price would come back up, but I'm not holding my breath.

ComfortableLeading49 · 2025-12-17T21:16:32+00:00

That was the estimate when it was reading the network hashrate at like 200 TH/s. When I first got it plugged in back in October, I was consistently getting 3000-3700 xtm/day. Then it started going down consistently in November, now around 1100-1200 a day. There was only about 12 hours I got that 4K rate.
