Can you solo mine DGB-SHA with a Bitaxe Supra?

Yes — a Bitaxe Supra (599.34 GH/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 8 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 49 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 Supra 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 #13 in electrical efficiency (42,810,000,000.00 H/W) and #14 in raw hashrate (599.34 GH/s).

Electricity Operating Costs & Breakeven

Running a Bitaxe Supra (14 W) pulls about 0.34 kWh per day (10.2 kWh per month). At the standard rate of 0.069 USD/kWh, electricity costs roughly 0.02 USD per day (0.71 USD/month or 8 USD/year). Statistically that year returns 7.51 blocks, worth about $6.28 — you would burn roughly 1x more in electricity than that reward is worth.

The operational breakeven threshold is 0.051 USD/kWh. Expected net operating margin at benchmark tariffs:

Break-even Coin Price Target: For this hardware to break even on electricity, DGB-SHA must trade at or above 0.00455 USD at standard industrial power (0.069 USD/kWh), or 0.00791 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 49 days, real-world dispersion ranges across 5% and 50% quantiles:

High Variance Alert: In a 1-in-20 severe drought (~146 days), cumulative electricity burned (~3 USD) will exceed the block reward value (1 USD). Pool mining is recommended for risk-averse operators.

Bitaxe Supra Price & Estimated ROI

Current market price: $55–$135 (estimated market price, median $85) (Hardware price estimated). Mined against its most profitable coin instead of solo, it would pay itself back in about 576.1 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 Supra 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:

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 2.04%, yearly chance 99.95%.

Frequently Asked Questions: Bitaxe Supra on DGB-SHA

Can you solo mine DGB-SHA with a Bitaxe Supra?

Yes — a Bitaxe Supra (599.34 GH/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 8 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 49 days, for the full 247.9300 DGB block. BackPoW computes this from live network difficulty using a Poisson block-discovery model.

Is SHA-256 ASIC-resistant, and where does the Bitaxe Supra stand?

SHA-256 is an ASIC-dominated algorithm. The Bitaxe Supra delivers 599.34 GH/s (#14 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 Supra on DGB-SHA?

At 14 W, operating a Bitaxe Supra consumes 0.34 kWh/day (10.2 kWh/month). At standard electricity (0.069 USD/kWh), the power bill is 0.02 USD/day (0.71 USD/month). The operational breakeven threshold is 0.051 USD/kWh.

What happens if my Bitaxe Supra 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 146 days, accumulating roughly 3 USD in power costs.
