"We built this because we believe the tools people use to interact with Bitcoin should be fully verifiable. Every line of code between the ASIC chips and the pixels on the touchscreen is open source."
"The product builds on the open-source Bitaxe GT 801 platform and is powered by dual BM1370 ASIC chips, the same chips used in the industrial-scale Bitmain Antminer S21 Pro. The chips allow the device to achieve efficiency of roughly 18 joules per terahash, according to the company."
"The miner runs two open-source firmware layers: AxeOS, which manages the mining operations, and BAP‑GT‑TOUCH, which powers the touchscreen interface. Both software repositories, along with hardware schematics and board layouts, are publicly available under an open hardware license."
Solo Satoshi, a Houston-based mining hardware company, launched the Bitaxe Turbo Touch, a compact open-source touchscreen bitcoin miner for hobbyists. The device produces approximately 2.15 terahashes per second, more than double other touchscreen miners in its category. It features dual BM1370 ASIC chips from Bitmain's industrial Antminer S21 Pro, achieving roughly 18 joules per terahash efficiency. The miner includes a 4.3-inch capacitive touchscreen displaying real-time mining metrics including hashrate, bitcoin price, block height, and recently mined blocks. All code from ASIC chips to touchscreen pixels is open source, running AxeOS firmware and BAP-GT-TOUCH interface software. The device consumes 43 watts and produces 35 decibels of noise.
