$24 Lucky Miner SOLO-LV02 is the equivalent a lottery ticket for Bitcoin mining

Bitcoin mining now requires expensive machines, so I was surprised when I saw the Lucky Miner SOLO-LV02 cryptocurrency mining “machine” going for about $24 on AliExpress (link at the end of this post). The USB-powered box is capable of mining coins with the SHA-256 algorithm, and features a 1.9-inch display, WiFi connectivity, and two buttons. In theory, we’re told the device can mine BTC, BCH, BSV, DGB… Considering the really low hashrate, it’s the equivalent of a lottery ticket for Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, and the luckiest ones may get one Bitcoin block (3.125 BTC). SOLO-LV02 specifications: SoC – Unnamed Hashrate – 72kH/s ±10% Algorithm SHA-256 Display – 1.9-inch color TFT display Connectivity – WiFi USB – 1x USB Type-C port for button Misc Top button for menu selection, factory reset, and configuration mode activation Bottom button for screen on/off and orientation Power Supply – 5V via USB-C port Power Consumption […]
