Open-source Bitaxe miners can now connect directly to a Stratum V2 endpoint operated by Bitaxe Pool, giving AxeOS users an encrypted and authenticated path from a desktop Bitcoin ASIC to a solo-mining pool. The pool added Stratum V2 service on September 8, and a September 13 technical guide documents the configuration for AxeOS 2.14.0 and…

Bitcoin mining firmware is moving beyond static tuning. BitFuFu says its BitFuFuOS system is now being used to intelligently overclock and underclock mining fleets in real time as electricity prices and market conditions change, turning ASIC firmware into part of the power-management layer of a large mining operation. The disclosure came during BitFuFu’s second-quarter 2026…

Braiins has issued OS 26.09.1, a targeted Bitcoin-mining firmware patch for Antminer S19 and S21 machines after some systems upgraded to 26.09 encountered T5 temperature-sensor errors that could halt hashing for 60 seconds. A narrow patch for a real uptime problem The firmware team’s release notes date version 26.09.1 to September 24 and describe one…

K1Pool and GMiner have released SHA-256 ASIC firmware version 1.30 with a particularly practical thermal-control feature: individual hot BM1368 chips can now be automatically downclocked instead of forcing an operator to reduce an entire miner’s performance. One hot chip no longer has to dictate the whole hashboard The mining platform lists firmware 1.30 as its…

Bitcoin solo mining produced a remarkable cluster of wins this week: three blocks attributed to NiceHash EasyMining landed within roughly 22 hours on September 25 and 26, delivering a combined 9.4474 BTC in block rewards and fees. Three Bitcoin blocks in less than a day On-chain tracking records block 968,495 at 04:12 UTC on September…

When a Bitcoin mining site accumulates machines running on only two of three hashboards, the obvious fix can look deceptively simple: move good boards between chassis until more complete miners are hashing. A new September 24 field guide from ASIC Master argues that the idea is sound—but only when technicians treat hashboard compatibility as an…

A Bitcoin mining facility in El Reno, Oklahoma, has been condemned after a failure in private water infrastructure on the property contributed to the loss of roughly 3.8 million gallons of municipal water, disrupted pressure across the city and forced local schools to close. The facility is associated with Athlon Blockchain Technology, which describes its…

A farm near Hamburg, Germany, is using a compact approach to a problem that usually pushes Bitcoin miners toward warehouses and filtered ventilation. The site has paired ground-mounted solar generation with weather-sealed hydro-cooled Antminer cabinets, allowing high-density mining beside agricultural fields without exposing the ASICs to harvest dust. According to a September 23 deployment report,…

Hyperscale Data has switched off every Bitcoin miner at its Michigan data center, completing a major power reallocation from proof-of-work computing toward artificial intelligence infrastructure. The shutdown took effect September 1. It turns an earlier plan to progressively reduce mining into a clean operational break: Michigan is now being prepared for a California-based neocloud customer…

Bitcoin mining and artificial intelligence may not have to compete for every megawatt. New industry discussions tracked by CoinShares point toward a hybrid model in which AI receives priority compute capacity while Bitcoin ASICs act as a fast, flexible buyer for electricity that would otherwise sit unused. The idea matters because the mining-to-AI transition has…

Bitdeer is extending its Bhutan infrastructure strategy beyond Bitcoin mining. In a September 16 regulatory filing, the company disclosed a non-binding letter of intent to develop an AI data center in Gelephu Mindfulness City, starting at 30 MW of renewable hydro and solar power with a potential expansion pathway to 500 MW. According to the…

Auradine‘s Teraflux AH3880 is a hydro-cooled Bitcoin miner rated for up to 600 TH/s. Auradine’s AH3880 datasheet lists 450 TH/s at 14.5 J/TH in normal mode and 600 TH/s at 16.75 J/TH in turbo mode. Auradine separately announced a newer third-generation Teraflux lineup in November 2025 with efficiency reaching 9.8 J/TH in hydro and immersion…
