BitAxe, NerdQAxe and NerdOctAxe in FARMGOD
The BitAxe is an open-source Bitcoin miner the size of a hand. FARMGOD reads the BitAxe family and its bigger relatives, the NerdQAxe++ and the NerdOctAxe.
The BitAxe is an open-source SHA-256 miner: a small board with a single mining chip, built by many makers from the same public design. It is the best-known machine in home mining. The NerdQAxe++ and the NerdOctAxe follow the same idea with more chips on the board.
Supported models
- BitAxe Gamma, Max, Supra and Ultra
