Quick Setup (Plug & Play Guide)
| Step 1: Establish WLAN Connection | Connect to the miner's access point (via QR code on the display or directly through WLAN search). The settings will automatically open in the browser to pair the miner with your regular home WLAN. |
|---|---|
| Step 2: Open Miner Dashboard | Enter the local IP address displayed on the screen (e.g., 192.168.x.x) into your browser like a regular web address (URL). |
| Step 3: Configure Wallet & Pool | Under the "Pool" menu item, enter your personal Bitcoin wallet address and the data for a solo mining pool (recommended: Solo CKPool via https://eusolo.ckpool.org/). |
| Step 4: Automatic Start | Save the settings. After a short, automatic restart of the device, solo mining will start immediately in the background (Plug & Forget). |
The achievable hashrate and efficiency significantly depend on the chip clock speed. Overclocking without adequate cooling can lead to damage. There is no warranty for damages caused by overclocking or future firmware updates beyond the factory settings.

What Our Customers Say
FAQs
How much power does the Bitaxe really consume?
The miner consumes only approx. 17–25 watts – depending on how much power you demand from it – all our miners are preset at approx. 19 watts. At average electricity prices in Germany, it costs €0.15 - €0.20 per day. Your refrigerator consumes significantly more. And doesn't earn any money.
Is the Bitaxe quiet enough for an apartment?
Yes. Especially with our premium Noctua fans from the Ice and Polar Line, it is extremely quiet (25–35 dB). Many customers operate it directly in their bedroom or living room without even hearing it.
How long does the setup take?
The complete setup takes less than 5 minutes. You plug it in, connect to the Miner Wi-Fi, and enter your Bitcoin address. After that, it runs fully automatically. If you don't have a Bitcoin address yet, that can also be done in 5 minutes. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
How much can I realistically earn?
Realistically, a solo block will be found every few days, and the miner who finds it will receive the full €300,000. Until then, your miner will try 24/7. Your advantage: You pay once for the miner and can play along for years. In contrast, if you participate in a pool, you would only earn a few cents per day - that wouldn't even cover the electricity costs.
What if something breaks?
Every Polarblocks Miner comes with a 12-month warranty and a 30-day money-back guarantee. We are a German company and handle support personally. In case of a defect, we will repair or replace the device quickly and easily, as long as we do not detect any hardware or software changes to the device.
Is Bitcoin mining legal in Germany?
Yes, completely legal. You just have to pay taxes on the Bitcoin earned (as with stocks or other cryptocurrencies).
Do I need crypto knowledge to get started?
No. You only need a Bitcoin wallet address (e.g. from an app like BlueWallet or Relai). Everything else happens automatically.
How long does the miner last?
With our high-quality cooling and premium components, a lifespan of 5–8 years is realistic. The fans can be easily replaced if necessary.
What happens at the next Bitcoin halving?
The next halving is expected in 2028. Until then, the block reward will remain at 3.125 BTC (approx. €300,000). Many customers see now as the best time to enter the market.
Can I resell the Bitaxe later?
Yes. Bitaxe devices are in high demand and retain their value well. You can resell them without significant depreciation. High-quality devices, such as those from Polarblocks, are particularly sought after.
