IceRiver AE3 (2GH)

The IceRiver AE3 arrives like a scene cut into crisp panels: the chassis breathes, fans spin, status LEDs blink, and a console calmly reports 2 Gh/s - a 2GH/s ASIC sculpted for zkSNARK and tuned to mine Aleo with a ruthless, efficient logic; it draws 3,400 watts and posts 1.7 J/MH, a figure that separates it from generic rigs and lets operators focus on sustained output rather than compromise, while its specialist silicon and algorithm-level optimizations deliver predictable, high-quality hashing for a privacy-first chain. At 370 x 195 x 290 mm and about 15 kilograms the AE3 is compact enough for rack deployment but built like a tool for industrial halls, and with a measured 75 dB noise profile it belongs in dedicated rooms, garages, or colocation facilities rather than quiet living spaces; plan for robust ventilation, a dedicated high-capacity power circuit, surge protection and UPS support, and keep ambient temps low to preserve fan life and hash stability. Expect an intuitive web UI and compatibility with common Aleo pools and monitoring stacks so you can track hashrate, temps and error rates in real time; set conservative fan curves, cluster units with proper spacing, and automate firmware and pool failovers to maintain uptime. Designed for release in November 2025, the AE3’s specialized architecture means lower wasted cycles and easier density scaling for serious miners: think rows of synchronized panels where hardware and software speak in short, sharp sentences - “2 Gh/s up,” “temps nominal,” “reconnect to pool” - and where predictable efficiency and physical practicality let you plan capacity, cooling and maintenance with confidence rather than guesswork.

The IceRiver ALEO AE3 (2Gh) is a purpose-built ASIC for Aleo mining that targets the zkSNARK algorithm with surgical focus. It delivers a steady 2 gigahashes per second while drawing 3,400 watts. Measured efficiency sits at 1.7 joules per megahash, a marker of its algorithm-level optimization. The unit is compact at 370 x 195 x 290 millimeters and weighs about 15 kilograms. Acoustic output registers around 75 decibels, so deployment in shared living areas is inadvisable. Its specialist silicon reduces wasted cycles and raises predictability in sustained hashing. Installations perform best in rack rows, dedicated rooms, or colocation spaces with planned airflow. Provide robust ventilation, a dedicated high-capacity power circuit, surge protection and UPS support to protect uptime and hardware longevity. The miner exposes an intuitive web interface and integrates with common Aleo pools and monitoring stacks for real-time visibility into hashrate, temperature and error rates. Operators should implement conservative fan curves, maintain spacing between units and automate pool failovers and firmware updates to minimize manual intervention. The chassis and cooling are designed for continuous operation and density scaling, so capacity planning becomes an exercise in logistics rather than guesswork. Release is scheduled for November 2025, and the AE3’s combination of focused hardware and predictable performance reframes what dedicated Aleo mining infrastructure can achieve.

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.
