Block Odds Analysis

How the two solo miners compare on their chance of finding a block and on the electricity each ticket costs.

Both machines are solo lottery miners, so this comparison is about odds, not income. Each one hashes against the live network difficulty of its coin, and the one with more hashrate has proportionally better odds of solving a block. The yearly electricity cost is what you pay to stay in the draw, and the block value is what a single win pays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

The miner with more hashrate holds more tickets in every block, so its odds are better in direct proportion. Current daily block odds: PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt 1 in 46.7K, NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 1 in 615K.

Electricity is the price of the ticket. Yearly electricity cost at your rate: PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt $17.52, NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 $168.19.

A solo block pays the full block reward plus the transaction fees to your own address. Current block value: PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt $336 (LTC), NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 $241,906 (BTC).

No. Every hash is an independent draw, so a higher hashrate only raises the chance per day, month and year. Neither miner earns anything until a block is found, which is why both are compared on odds and not on daily profit.

The PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt has a hashrate of 105MH/s.

The NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 has a hashrate of 12TH/s.

The PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt uses Scrypt, ideal for mining Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), while the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 uses SHA-256, suitable for Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

The PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt consumes 25W, while the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 consumes 240W.

Efficiency comparison is not possible as the PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt uses Scrypt and the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 uses SHA-256, making hashrate per watt metrics incomparable.

The PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt operates at 50db, while the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 operates at 40db. Lower noise levels are preferable for residential or noise-sensitive environments.

The PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt uses Air cooling, and the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 uses Air cooling. Both require robust cooling systems like liquid cooling loops or high-capacity air cooling to maintain optimal performance and prevent overheating.

Hardware Comparison

A side-by-side breakdown of key hardware specifications to evaluate performance, efficiency, and overall value of the two selected ASIC miners.

Release timeline shows the PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt launched in January 2026 while the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1 entered the market in January 2026. Newer miners typically incorporate improved chip architecture and manufacturing processes, leading to better efficiency and performance characteristics. Acoustic performance differs with the PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt operating at 50db versus 40db for the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1. Noise levels significantly impact placement options, with quieter units suitable for residential or office environments while louder miners require dedicated facilities with proper sound isolation. Humidity specifications indicate the PlebSource Hammer Miner Scrypt operates within 5 - 95 % conditions compared to 5 - 95 % for the NerdMiner NerdOCTAxe Rev 3.1. Better humidity tolerance enables deployment in more diverse geographic locations and reduces the need for expensive climate control systems in mining facilities.
