Can you solo mine DGB-SHA with a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1?
Yes — a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 (6.00 TH/s) can solo mine DGB-SHA (DGB) via a solo pool. At DGB-SHA's 33.58 PH/s SHA-256 network that is about 75 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 5 days, for the full 247.9300 DGB block. BackPoW computes this from live network difficulty using a Poisson block-discovery model. Realistically this is genuinely worth a patient solo run.
Hardware Tier & Ecosystem Ranking on DGB-SHA
The Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 is categorized in the Home / Solo Lottery Tier (Compact or low-power hardware optimized for decentralized solo lottery participation rather than commercial pool revenue.). Among all 15 tracked models on DGB-SHA, it ranks #7 in electrical efficiency (60,024,000,000.00 H/W) and #4 in raw hashrate (6.00 TH/s).
Electricity Operating Costs & Breakeven
Running a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 (100 W) pulls about 2.40 kWh per day (73.1 kWh per month). At the standard rate of 0.069 USD/kWh, electricity costs roughly 0.17 USD per day (5.04 USD/month or 60 USD/year). Statistically that year returns 75.21 blocks, worth about $62.91 — expected revenue covers the power bill about 1.0x over.
The operational breakeven threshold is 0.072 USD/kWh. Expected net operating margin at benchmark tariffs:
- At 0.040 USD/kWh (Hydro / Renewable): +0.08 USD / day
- At 0.069 USD/kWh (Standard Industrial): +0.01 USD / day
- At 0.120 USD/kWh (Residential Grid): -0.12 USD / day
Break-even Coin Price Target: For this hardware to break even on electricity, DGB-SHA must trade at or above 0.00324 USD at standard industrial power (0.069 USD/kWh), or 0.00564 USD at residential power (0.120 USD/kWh).
Bankroll & Variance Risk Simulator
Solo mining block discovery follows a memoryless Poisson distribution. While the average wait is 5 days, real-world dispersion ranges across 5% and 50% quantiles:
- Lucky streak (5% Odds): Block within ~6.0 hours (1-in-20 fastest discovery, power cost: ~0 USD)
- Median expectation (50% Odds): Block within ~3 days (Nominal median, power cost: ~1 USD)
- Bad luck streak (5% Odds): Can stretch up to ~15 days (1-in-20 extended dry spell, power cost: ~2 USD)
High Variance Alert: In a 1-in-20 severe drought (~15 days), cumulative electricity burned (~2 USD) will exceed the block reward value (1 USD). Pool mining is recommended for risk-averse operators.
Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 Price & Estimated ROI
Current market price: $276–$332 across 5 vendors (median $285). Mined against its most profitable coin instead of solo, it would pay itself back in about 11.1 years.

How the odds have moved
DGB-SHA's network hashrate fell 18% since 2026-09-22, from 41.08 PH/s to 33.58 PH/s — so the same rig is now 18% more likely to find a block.
Where to point a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 at DGB-SHA
Solo mining still runs through a solo pool: it handles the block template and pays the full reward to whoever finds the block. BackPoW tracks 36 solo pools for DGB-SHA with their stratum endpoints, fees, and pool hashrates — see DGB-SHA solo mining pools:
- sololuck.io (Fee: 0% · Hashrate: 165.40 TH/s)
- grandpool.io (Fee: 0.01% · Hashrate: 660.51 TH/s)
- fenixpool.com (Fee: 0.5% · Hashrate: 808.41 TH/s)
How the odds are calculated
Solo mining is memoryless: every hash is an independent lottery ticket, so the wait for a block follows an exponential distribution rather than a fixed schedule. On average a block takes T = network_hashrate ÷ your_hashrate × block_time, and the probability of finding at least one within a window t is P = 1 − e^(−t/T). BackPoW uses this Poisson relation instead of a naive linear estimate. For this pair: daily chance 18.61%, yearly chance 100.00%.

Is SHA-256 ASIC-resistant, and where does the Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 stand?
SHA-256 is an ASIC-dominated algorithm. The Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 delivers 6.00 TH/s (#4 of 15 models on DGB-SHA). It belongs to the Home / Solo Lottery Tier, built for compact, decentralized solo attempts rather than commercial pool income.
What is the operating power cost and breakeven electricity rate for a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 on DGB-SHA?
At 100 W, operating a Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 consumes 2.40 kWh/day (73.1 kWh/month). At standard electricity (0.069 USD/kWh), the power bill is 0.17 USD/day (5.04 USD/month). The operational breakeven threshold is 0.072 USD/kWh.
What happens if my Bitaxe NerdQaxe++ Rev 6.1 encounters a severe dry spell on DGB-SHA?
Block discovery is an independent Poisson process with no memory. In a 1-in-20 bad luck drought (5% worst luck), finding a block can stretch up to 15 days, accumulating roughly 2 USD in power costs.
