IceRiver AE1 Lite (300MH)

The IceRiver AE1 Lite arrives not as a hulking crusader but as a compact, cruelly efficient instrument of computation, an ASIC forged for the zkSNARK algorithm to mine Aleo with a steady 300 MH/s while drawing 500 W - an efficiency of roughly 1.667 J/MH - its hum barely a whisper at 45 dB so it can live in a home study, an office corner or a boutique farm without shattering the room’s skin; small in footprint at 205×110×202 mm and weighing just 4.02 kg, it carries a PSU and Ethernet port for plug-and-play integration into existing rigs, built with attention to thermal behavior and continuous-operation reliability so that compactness does not betray industrial endurance, and its April 2025 arrival marks another step in IceRiver’s drive to put scalable, decentralized computation hardware into quieter, more accessible hands - a machine whose steel and silicon silhouette reads like a film still, pixels of emotion in the low, constant thrum of mining.

The IceRiver AE1 Lite arrives as a small, purposeful instrument built for zkSNARK mining on Aleo. It delivers a steady 300 MH/s and draws 500 W, yielding an efficiency of about 1.667 J/MH. Compact dimensions of 205×110×202 mm and a weight of 4.02 kg make it at home on a shelf or in a modest rack. A single quiet fan handles thermal management. The unit supports universal voltage, enabling plug-and-play operation across locations. It reliably operates between 5 and 40 °C and tolerates humidity up to 90%. Measured noise near 45 dB keeps it suitable for home studies and office corners. An included power supply and an Ethernet port simplify installation and sustain steady network connections for continuous zkSNARK proof work. The design favors continuous operation and long-term uptime with minimal intervention. Its small form factor and modest power draw make it practical for hobbyists and professional miners who want low-noise, space-efficient rigs that scale by adding parallel units. Regular dust cleaning preserves airflow and steady performance. For deployments that must stay discreet, the AE1 Lite packs clear specifications and quiet operation into a compact silhouette that fits into the advancing, privacy-focused computing landscape.

zkSNARK is a cryptographic hash function that serves as the backbone of Aleo proof-of-work consensus mechanism. This algorithm processes input data of any length and produces a fixed hash value, ensuring security and integrity in the mining process.
