The Nerdminer is where most people take their first step into Bitcoin solo mining. Designed by Bitmaker and powered by an ESP32 microcontroller, it connects to your home WiFi and starts mining Bitcoin within minutes of being plugged in. No ASIC chip, no loud fans, no technical setup. Just a small device running around the clock on the energy of a phone charger.

What is a Nerdminer?
The Nerdminer is an open-source Bitcoin mining device built around the ESP32 microcontroller. Unlike ASIC miners such as the Bitaxe or Nerdaxe, it does not use a dedicated hashing chip. Instead it uses the processing power of a small WiFi-enabled microcontroller to participate in solo Bitcoin mining at a modest hashrate of 75 KH/s.
The project was created by Bitmaker, a Spanish developer who wanted to make Bitcoin mining accessible to everyone, not just those with industrial hardware or technical expertise. The Nerdminer was one of the first open-source home mining devices to gain a following in the Bitcoin community and it remains the most accessible entry point into solo mining today.
Setting up a Nerdminer takes under 3 minutes. Plug it in via USB-C, connect to its WiFi network, enter your home WiFi credentials and your Bitcoin wallet address, and it starts mining automatically. The full walkthrough is available in our Nerdminer Setup Guide.
Nerdminer Models Available at Nerdminer Store
Nerdminer V2 Pro
The Nerdminer V2 Pro is the classic model and the most popular starting point for anyone new to Bitcoin mining. It runs at 75 KH/s on just 1W of power, connects via USB-C and comes in six colours including Black, Blue, Neon Green, Neon Yellow, Pink and Neon Orange. The built-in 1.9-inch full-color TFT display shows your mining stats in real time. At €49 it is the most affordable Bitcoin mining device we carry and a genuine way to put a device on the Bitcoin network from day one.
Nerdminer Quattro
The Nerdminer Quattro takes the Nerdminer concept further by combining four ESP32 microcontrollers on a single board. With four times the processing power of the V2 Pro, it delivers a higher hashrate while keeping the same plug-and-play simplicity. If you want more mining participation from the same open-source platform without moving to ASIC hardware, the Quattro is the natural step up.
Is the Nerdminer Worth It?
The honest answer depends on what you are looking for. The Nerdminer is not a competitive miner in terms of hashrate. A single Bitaxe Gamma delivers over 16,000 times more hashrate than a Nerdminer V2 Pro. But hashrate is not the only reason people run a Nerdminer.
Many users run a Nerdminer because they want to understand how Bitcoin mining works from the inside. Others run one alongside a Bitaxe or Nerdaxe because every additional device on the network contributes to Bitcoin's decentralisation. And some simply enjoy having a small, colourful device on their desk that is doing something real on the Bitcoin network 24 hours a day.
If you are ready for more serious solo mining hardware, our Bitaxe and Nerdaxe ranges offer ASIC-powered options starting from €119.
Why Buy Your Nerdminer from Nerdminer Store?
We have been selling Nerdminer devices since 2023, shortly after Bitmaker released the first version. Over the years we have handled hundreds of orders, worked through every firmware update and helped countless first-time miners get their device running. That experience shows in the quality of what we ship and the support we offer when something goes wrong.
Every Nerdminer we sell is tested before dispatch. We only stock hardware that we stand behind and that we would recommend to a friend getting into Bitcoin mining for the first time. All orders ship from Europe via UPS with full tracking, and our Nerdminer Setup Guide gets you from unboxing to mining in under 3 minutes. If you run into any issues, our support team is available 24 hours a day via Telegram and email.
Frequently Asked Questions about the Nerdminer
What is the difference between the Nerdminer and a Bitaxe?
The Nerdminer uses an ESP32 microcontroller and runs at 75 KH/s on 1W of power. The Bitaxe uses a BM1370 ASIC chip and delivers 1.2 TH/s at 17W, more than 16,000 times the hashrate. The Nerdminer is the most accessible and affordable entry point into solo mining. The Bitaxe is for miners who want serious hashing performance from an open-source board.
What is the difference between the Nerdminer V2 Pro and the Nerdminer Quattro?
The Nerdminer V2 Pro runs a single ESP32 microcontroller at 75 KH/s. The Nerdminer Quattro combines four ESP32 microcontrollers on one board for four times the hashrate at the same plug-and-play simplicity. The V2 Pro is the right starting point for most people. The Quattro is for those who want more mining participation without switching to ASIC hardware.
How do I set up a Nerdminer?
Plug the Nerdminer into a USB power source, connect to its WiFi network from your phone or laptop, enter your home WiFi credentials and your Bitcoin wallet address, then save and restart. The device connects automatically and starts solo mining within seconds. The full step-by-step walkthrough is in our Nerdminer Setup Guide.
What pool does the Nerdminer use?
The Nerdminer connects to public-pool.io by default, which is a true solo mining pool. If your device finds a valid Bitcoin block, the full block reward goes directly to your wallet. You can also configure any other Stratum V1 compatible pool in the settings.
How much electricity does the Nerdminer use?
The Nerdminer V2 Pro draws just 1W of power, which is less than most phone chargers. Running it continuously for a full year costs roughly €1 to €2 in electricity depending on your local rate. It is the lowest-cost mining device we sell in terms of running costs.
Does the Nerdminer have a display?
Yes. The Nerdminer V2 Pro features a 1.9-inch full-color TFT display showing your current hashrate, mining pool status and other stats in real time.
