Another educational mini miner. At least I think that’s the intent with these.

I don't think it will be an educational product, at least I haven't read that anywhere. What makes you define it that way?

Oh mostly because these aren't likely to be profitable or produce significant amounts of bitcoin, so the motivation for using one of these is not economic.

Strange choice not to link to or copy full product specs at pre-order / shop page.

I don't see hash rate listed.

Anyone have a source for hash rate?

It says 1.43 TH/s on the screen. But, yeah, I would like to see proper technical specs too before ordering anything.

I have one myself. I haven't been running it for long. But seems that it can do ~1.5TH/s without overheating even at ~28°C ambient. I haven't measured wallet outlet power yet. But it claims to be doing about 50J/TH.

Of course, it costs enough up-front that you're very unlikely to make a net return over the lifetime of the device even with free power... But they're fun and very easy to setup.

There is supposed to be a way to turn a Jade into a miner. That might be a more inexpensive way to learn vs spending $200 on this.

Nice design on this one though.

Yes, Blockstream implemented that for an April Fools joke. The Jade is much slower than even a regular computing. This device is many orders of magnitude faster.

Isn’t the jade a wallet? That would be like trying to run mining software on any general purpose computer, right?

Yes, Jade runs on an ESP32 general purpose microcontroller.
