What is the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
The Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo Model 801 is a dual-chip open-source Bitcoin ASIC miner built for solo mining at home. The Bitaxe 801 GT is also the official first release of the Bitaxe GT line up. It features two BM1370 ASIC chips, the same silicon found in Bitmain's Antminer S21 Pro, and delivers approximately 2.15 TH/s at around 43 watts with an efficiency of roughly 18 J/TH at default settings. The entire hardware and software stack is open source, developed by Open Source Miners United (OSMU), and runs on the AxeOS web interface for plug-and-play operation. Solo Satoshi was the first and original seller of the Bitaxe 801 GT and works closely with the open-source developers behind the project. You can purchase the official Bitaxe Gamma Turbo at
solosatoshi.com.
How does the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo differ from the Bitaxe Gamma 602?+
The biggest difference is hashrate. The
Bitaxe Gamma 602 uses a single BM1370 ASIC chip and produces around 1.2 TH/s at roughly 18 to 20 watts. The Bitaxe Gamma Turbo doubles that with two BM1370 chips, pushing approximately 2.15 TH/s at 43 watts. It also moves to a 12-volt DC power input using an XT30 connector, features a wider 6-layer PCB with 1oz copper for improved heat dissipation, and has a larger aluminum heatsink paired with a 60mm fan. For solo miners, doubling the hashrate means doubling your probability of finding a Bitcoin block, all in a single compact device. Both models are available at
solosatoshi.com.
What is included when I buy the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo from Solo Satoshi?+
Every Bitaxe Gamma Turbo from Solo Satoshi includes the official Bitaxe 801 GT miner, a removable 0.91-inch OLED display, and optional add-ons for a 12.4V 10A (124W) XT30 power supply and a black 3D-printed Solo Satoshi stand designed for clean presentation and optimal airflow. Each unit is assembled, tested, and shipped from the USA. You can configure your order options on the
Bitaxe GT product page.
How do I set up the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Setup is plug and play. Connect the XT30 power supply, then use your phone or computer to connect to the Bitaxe's Wi-Fi hotspot (named Bitaxe_XXXX). Once inside the AxeOS interface, select your home Wi-Fi network, enter your password, save, and restart. After the device reboots, it will display an IP address on the OLED screen. Navigate to that IP address in your browser, go to the settings tab, and enter a valid on-chain Bitcoin wallet address in the Stratum User and Fallback Stratum User fields. Save and restart, and your Bitaxe Gamma Turbo will begin hashing. Solo Satoshi maintains a full step-by-step walkthrough at
Bitaxe Setup Made Simple.
Do I need a computer to run the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
AxeOS is the open-source firmware and operating system that powers every Bitaxe miner, including the Gamma Turbo. It provides a browser-based dashboard where you can monitor hashrate, chip temperature, fan speed, power consumption, and pool status in real time. You can also adjust settings like ASIC frequency, voltage, fan curves, and mining pool configuration directly from AxeOS. Firmware updates can be installed through the AxeOS web interface or via the USB-C port on the Bitaxe GT. Solo Satoshi covers the full update process in their guide:
How to Update Bitaxe Firmware.
How much electricity does the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo use?+
At default settings, the Bitaxe Gamma Turbo draws approximately 43 watts, give or take 10%. At a common residential electricity rate of $0.12 per kWh, that translates to roughly $3.70 per month. Even at $0.20 per kWh, the monthly cost stays around $6.20. This makes the Bitaxe GT one of the most affordable mining devices to operate and ideal for running 24/7 in a home or office environment. Use Solo Satoshi's
Bitcoin Mining Profitability Calculator to estimate your exact electricity costs based on your local rate.
Is the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo loud?+
No. The Bitaxe GT uses a 60mm x 60mm x 25mm fan rated at 3,500 RPM, and users consistently describe it as whisper quiet. At default settings, it runs under 40 dB, which is comparable to a desktop computer idling or a quiet refrigerator hum. It is designed to sit comfortably on a desk, bookshelf, or nightstand without disrupting your home or workspace.
Can the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo mine coins other than Bitcoin?+
The Bitaxe Gamma Turbo runs the SHA-256 hashing algorithm, which is the same algorithm used by Bitcoin. You can technically point it at pools for other SHA-256-based cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Cash, but the device is purpose-built and optimized for Bitcoin mining. Solo Satoshi focuses exclusively on Bitcoin home mining and provides all of its guides, calculators, and support resources around mining BTC.
What are my odds of finding a Bitcoin block with the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Solo mining odds are calculated by dividing your hashrate by the total network hashrate. With the Bitaxe GT hashing at approximately 2.15 TH/s against a network exceeding 800 EH/s, the probability per individual block is extremely small. However, every hash is a fresh chance, and the miner submits millions of attempts per second, 24 hours a day. Real Bitaxe devices have already found multiple full Bitcoin blocks, including a cluster of six Bitaxe devices winning block #887,212 in March 2025 for over $250,000. Adding a second Bitaxe GT doubles your probability linearly. Check your exact odds using Solo Satoshi's
Solo Mining Probability Calculator.
What is the difference between solo mining and pool mining with the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Solo mining (also called lottery mining) means your Bitaxe submits hashes directly to the Bitcoin network, and if it finds a valid block, you receive the entire 3.125 BTC block reward plus transaction fees. The odds are low but the payout is massive. Pool mining splits rewards among all participants proportionally based on contributed hashrate, which produces small but more consistent daily payouts in satoshis. The Bitaxe GT supports both approaches through the AxeOS pool configuration settings. Solo Satoshi covers both strategies in depth at
What is Bitcoin Lottery Mining? and
What is a Solo Miner?.
Can I overclock the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Yes. The Bitaxe GT has plenty of headroom for performance tuning through the AxeOS interface, where you can adjust ASIC frequency and voltage. However, overclocking increases heat output and power draw, so proper cooling and an adequate power supply are essential. Solo Satoshi strongly recommends upgraded thermal paste, MOSFET heatsinks, and good airflow ventilation before pushing clocks higher. Overclocking is done at the end user's risk. For detailed benchmarks and best practices, read Solo Satoshi's comprehensive guide:
How to Overclock Bitaxe Gamma.
What power supply does the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo use?+
The Bitaxe GT uses a 12-volt DC input through an XT30 male connector, which is a significant change from the 5-volt USB-C power delivery used on earlier Bitaxe models like the Gamma 602. Solo Satoshi offers a matched 12.4V 10A (124W) XT30 power supply as an optional add-on, providing substantial headroom above the default 43-watt draw. Using the factory-matched power supply ensures stable voltage delivery and is recommended for reliable long-term operation, especially if you plan to overclock. Third-party power supplies may damage the device.
How do I update the firmware on my Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
You have two options. The first and easiest method is through the AxeOS web interface: navigate to the settings tab, scroll to "Latest Releases," and check for a new version. If one is available, download the esp-miner.bin file, then upload it using the "Update Firmware" section on the same settings page. The second option uses the USB-C port on the Bitaxe GT for webflashing, which is useful for recovery or major updates. Solo Satoshi maintains a detailed walkthrough of both methods at
How to Update Bitaxe Firmware.
Does Solo Satoshi offer a warranty on the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Yes. Every Bitaxe unit purchased from Solo Satoshi includes a 90-day limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. This is significantly more coverage than the 14 to 30-day windows offered by most Amazon and eBay sellers. Solo Satoshi also provides expert technical support via ticketed email for setup assistance, troubleshooting, and general questions. You can reach the support team at
solosatoshi.com/contact.
Why should I buy the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo from Solo Satoshi instead of another retailer?+
Solo Satoshi is recognized by the official Bitaxe.org project as a trusted and legit seller. Every unit is assembled and tested by hand in the USA, then shipped same day for orders placed before 12 PM CST. Solo Satoshi was the first and original seller of the Bitaxe GT and works directly with the open-source developers behind the project. You receive genuine open-source hardware with the latest firmware pre-flashed, a 90-day warranty, lifetime access to setup guides and calculators, and direct expert support. Generic units from Amazon, eBay, and AliEpress often come with lower-bin ASIC chips, outdated firmware, undersized power supplies, and minimal or no technical support. The price difference is typically small, but the difference in reliability and experience is massive. Over 40,000 customers in 70+ countries have chosen
Solo Satoshi.
What does "open source" mean for the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo?+
Open source means the complete hardware design files, schematics, PCB layouts, bill of materials, and firmware source code for the Bitaxe GT are publicly available for anyone to inspect, modify, and distribute. This ensures full transparency, eliminates vendor lock-in, and allows a global community of developers and miners to continuously improve the platform. Unlike proprietary mining hardware from manufacturers like Bitmain or MicroBT, there are no hidden backdoors, locked firmware, or forced pool configurations. The Bitaxe GT firmware and design files are hosted on the official GitHub repository. Solo Satoshi actively supports the open-source mission, and a portion of proceeds from every sale contributes to ongoing Bitaxe development.
Can I monitor the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo from my phone?+
Yes. The AxeOS dashboard is fully browser-based, so you can access it from any phone, tablet, or computer connected to the same Wi-Fi network. For remote monitoring beyond your local network, Solo Satoshi offers the
HashWatcher App, which lets you track your entire Bitaxe fleet from your phone, including hashrate, uptime, temperature, and pool status, no matter where you are.
How does the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo support Bitcoin decentralization?+
Every Bitaxe GT running in a home or office adds independent hashrate to the Bitcoin network that is not controlled by a large mining corporation or pool. When you solo mine with your Bitaxe, you are directly validating transactions and competing for blocks without relying on a centralized third party. This geographic and operational diversity strengthens the network against censorship and single points of failure. The open-source nature of the hardware and firmware ensures that no single entity can control how your miner operates. Solo Satoshi's mission is built around making home mining simple, affordable, and accessible so that more individuals can participate in securing the Bitcoin network.

What is a Solo Miner?.
Has anyone actually won a Bitcoin block using a Bitaxe?+
Yes, multiple times. In July 2024, a single Bitaxe Ultra solo mined a full Bitcoin block, earning approximately 3.15 BTC (over $200,000 at the time). In March 2025, a cluster of six Bitaxe devices with a combined 3.3 TH/s found block #887,212 and earned 3.15 BTC worth roughly $250,000. Additional Bitaxe-powered solo wins have been confirmed throughout 2025 and into 2026 across solo mining pools like Solo CKPool and Public Pool. The Bitaxe Gamma Turbo, with its 2.15 TH/s default hashrate, gives you the equivalent power of two Bitaxe Gammas in a single device, effectively doubling your chances compared to the original Gamma 602. Solo Satoshi tracks confirmed block found by Bitaxe.
What is the Bitaxe GT 800xxx?+
The Bitaxe GT 800xxx refers to the early prototype and developer board revision of the Bitaxe GT Gamma Turbo project. It was created by OSMU (Open Source Miners United) as a development platform for testing the dual BM1370 ASIC chip configuration. The 800xxx board was never intended for public sale or consumer use. It was a work-in-progress engineering sample meant to validate the hardware design before the finalized production model, the Bitaxe 801 GT, was completed and officially released. Solo Satoshi only sells the official, finished
Bitaxe 801 GT (Gamma Turbo).
Is the Bitaxe GT profitable?+
Profitability depends on your electricity rate, the current Bitcoin price, network difficulty, and whether you solo mine or pool mine. The Bitaxe GT draws approximately 43 watts at default settings with an efficiency of roughly 18 J/TH. At a typical residential electricity rate of $0.12 per kWh, operating costs run about $3.80 per month.
