Bittawm Trust Review - Goldshell BYTE - A Unique Hobbyist Home Miner
by
bittawm
on 25/05/2025, 04:47:52 UTC
The Goldshell BYTE is a fascinating device designed for hobbyist miners who seek efficiency, adaptability, and simplicity. Let’s explore what makes this miner stand out.

The Good


- Quieter than standard miners – Noise levels range from approximately 45-50 dB, making it more suitable for home use.

- Lower temperature – The device operates at a maximum heat level of approximately 35°C, reducing concerns over excessive heating.

- Energy-efficient – Each mining card consumes 65W, and when using two high-power cards, the total power consumption reaches 130W—significantly lower than many traditional miners.

- Compact design – With dimensions of 135 × 63 × 106 mm and a weight of 0.4 kg, it’s an easily manageable device for small-scale mining setups.

What Sets It Apart

Unlike most ASIC miners that are locked into a single algorithm, the BYTE takes a different approach:

- Dual-algorithm mining – Since the miner houses two interchangeable cards, each can mine a different algorithm simultaneously.

- Upgradeable mining cards – As technology advances and older cards become obsolete, new, more profitable cards can be slotted into the device, effectively extending its lifespan.

- Innovative modularity – This miner’s unique ability to swap cards offers long-term usability—something that traditional miners often lack.

The Bad


- DG Card (Scrypt Algorithm) – Unfortunately, the DG card was already unprofitable before the BYTE launched, making it impractical unless you're purely mining for the sake of the hobby or solo mining

- AE Card (zkSNARK Algorithm) – At the time of writing, this card generates a profit of approximately $0.11 per day. While it's not the most lucrative option, the BYTE compensates with its efficiency, low noise, and minimal heat—qualities absent in larger, high-powered miners.

Profitability Perspective

Profitability is relative, and while the BYTE isn't a powerhouse for earnings, its interchangeable cards offer a future-proof solution. Unlike standard miners, which become obsolete as algorithms evolve, this device allows miners to swap cards, adapting to new profitable opportunities.

Unboxing Experience

The BYTE arrives in impressive packaging, with each component well-secured and individually packed.





Mining Setup – Simple & User-Friendly



Setting up the Goldshell BYTE is incredibly straightforward:

1 Connect your phone to the BYTE’s WiFi network.
2 Open the Goldshell Zone app and add your miner to find its IP address.
3 Connect your computer to the BYTE WiFi.
4 Type the miner’s IP address into your browser.
5 Configure your workers and mining pools.
6 Connect the miner to your WiFi network.
7 Reset the device using the pin (located near the power plug).
8 Start mining!


Final Thoughts

The Goldshell BYTE is a compact, efficient, and adaptable mining device that introduces innovation in ASIC mining. Its interchangeable cards and dual-algorithm capabilities make it an exciting option for hobbyists, even if it’s not the most profitable miner today. With its low noise, heat efficiency, and upgradeability, it offers a refreshing alternative in the mining space.

Here is the miner tier stuff for NEO


looks shaky IMHO...no real world use yet

looks a lot like Paycoin...(and I'm in the mxc project and run the M2Pro MXC Miners group on FaceBook with 2,471 on such.

but.....not acting like a hardware with staking project...likely no real world use until well into 2024-25 IMHO.

dubious

here is the latest today on how tiers work...along with 'super secret top tiers' they won' talk about (sigh) all bonding MXC

and you have to bond more when certain goal posts are reached for mxc blocks and this is likely to both mine MXC of any note and DOGE

also note the Gold Tier...the 'highest you can get' w/o an 'invite' to the upper clubs/teir(s) is 3.35 times the coeff of the free tier with no bonding

also if you bond 25k mxc per device you get 2x the gold reward

anyway, looks like PayCoin sketchy as heck..and yeah I have regrets but still run the FB group M2Pro MXC Miners

so...might end up being watching a train wreck

still unclear on rewards

I hear your concerns, It is a total gamble like anything in crypto.

But I am quietly confident I can ROI on these

Hopefully the bonding of MXC really pumps the price.

I will share my journy here.

The first lot of M2 miners ROI'd pretty quickly before the bear market, any of those who sold the MXC would have made bank.

I am hoping it will be the same with the NEO.

As always, I respect your opinion Searing, you are an OG in the space

MatchX NEO Miner - Bittawm Trust Review (Earn over $5/day using 1watt)
by
bittawm
on 20/04/2023, 08:42:13 UTC
           

DISCLAIMER: THIS DOES NOT MINE NEO - It Mines DOGE and MXC. (NEO miner is just the name they chose) 

Hello Bitcointalk family.

I have another cool new toy to talk about from MatchX.

Please see my last review about the M2 Miner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5414351.msg60979066#msg60979066

This time I am here to talk about their new product: The NEO miner.

I have been using the MatchX M2 miner for over a year now and I have been very impressed with its performance and earnings. It is a great device for mining MXC, DHX, and BTC tokens on the MXC data network. However, I noticed MatchX released a new NEO miner. NEOminer is a low-power, multi-token miner that offers a powerful and low-emission solution to change mining in the PoW and PoS era. It also creates a data network called LPWAN by connecting to other miners, and it can certify and verify digital and physical goods, including NFTs.

I preordered multiple NEOminers during the pre-sale and it is scheduled to be delivered sometime this month. According to. The setup process is very easy and intuitive ( It is the same as the M2 miner its like a 5 mins setup).  plug in the power and ethernet cables, scan the QR code on the device with the DataDash app, and follow the instructions on the app to activate the miner.

The NEO miner uses a mining algorithm called PoP (Proof of Participation) much like the M2 miner, which rewards miners for providing network coverage with their own miners.

The NEO miner runs smoothly and quietly and consume very little power. According to the app, it only uses 1 Watt of power, which is amazing compared to other miners. It also generates a lot of data packets that are sent and received by other miners on the LPWAN network. This helps to increase the coverage and security of the network, as well as earning me more tokens.

One of the most interesting features of the NEO miner is its ability to certify and verify digital and physical goods. I am excited to try out this feature soon. According to MatchX, NEO can work with N3XUS, a next-generation NFT beacon that can display NFTs in real life. NEO can also certify indoor sensors and luxury goods using its Low-Scale Certification (LSC) technology. This sounds very promising and innovative.



             


           
My genuine thoughts on the NEO MINER: (11 months
)

I believe like the original M2 that this will be extremely profitable this makes an extimated $5 per day excluding DOGE rewards from bonded MXC, it basically pays its self off in a few months, I am pretty damn excited.

Earnings $5 per day
The Miner costs around $495 euros
Payoff 100 days approx

Just like the MXC M2 miner, the NEO runs silent, and produces no heat and is profitable. A miners dream.

     







           
The Basics of the miner:
You want to keep miner health at 100% to yield the maximum rewards. (how to mine the maximum amount of MXC through your Neo miner)
There are a few different factors that affect miner health:

1. Uptime:
How long your miner has been connected to the internet. After 7 days you have 100% uptime.

2. Fuel tank:
This is how much MXC you have mined, if you withdraw your mined MXC your miner health will be affected. If you withdraw all of your fuel your miner health will reduce to 20%. You can trade the markets and sell MXC at a high price, then buy it back at a cheaper price and refuel.

3. Proximity:
You can only have a maximum of 50 miners in a 2km hexagon. If you add more miners beyond this you will start to experience reduced miner health.



   


         
Bonding MXC:
Like the M2 miner, you can bond MXC to earn alternative rewards, The NEO Miners secondary coin to mine is $DOGE:
Bond MXC tokens with your NEO miner to earn DOGE reward:
Basically lock MXC tokens for a few months and in reward you earn $DOGE

Hey,
I saw the product on https://www.m2prominers.com/product/matchx-m2-pro-miner/ and the price is significantly lower ?
You think m2prominers.com is a trustable website ?
I messaged you on telegram Smiley
The sites you provide above is sell MatchX M2 Pro Miner for €2.491,00 while the @OP provide official site and the price is just From €2.300,00 although it depends on where you came from since different region will need a shipping cost.

However I don't find any review about the site you provide above, so I don't have any comment about it.

If I were you, I would choose to buy from @OP link since it's an official store, I wouldn't take any risk when it's about hardware.

I have sold thousands of miners here with no escrow, so if you dont trust the link feel free to purchase from me.

I can also arrange some good discounts, I am often buying more so can arrange good discounts for volume

Hey bittawm,
This idea sounds super interesting...
What do you think of MXC as a token how likely is it that's gonna jump ?
As far as i can see it is going to be used for connecting new devices...
And did you have a problem with shipment ?
Thanksss

I like the project.

I have made profit with the miner

I will buy more

I have never had a problem with shipment

How about if i only have a miner in my area ?

How many GB internet for a month ?

yes different, better.

you dont need fast internet

1-10 miners in your area is maximum profit

Why didn't Satoshi think of something similar as this. Where you can only have a certain number of miners in close proximity, it would be perfect for decentralization.

Honestly, I never knew this existed. Its pretty cool.

With GPU down the drain it might get some sales. Miners are desperate for income right now. How long has this miner been out? Over 2 years now. Surprised i've never heard about it before.

yeah my man.

This miner has totally impressed me with consistent earnings over 11 months

Wait, this is not like that HNT helium miners that need users around your city or town? This is interesting, I love those helium miners but the requirement sucks so bad, anyway, that's helium, can this miner work in any part of the world? I think I have interested if the requirement is easy.

Yeah that is with Helium.

MXC is different.

One miner in a remote location will pump out maximum rewards (up to 10 miners).

When you have more than 10 the returns diminish

am fairly confident where i live absolutely NO ONE will have this miner within 2 KM from where i stay so i guess its no good 2 me.

That means you will get maximum rewards all to yourself.

This is a good thing

Hello Bitcointalk family.

As you know I have been in the mining space since 2012, I have studied and researched hundreds of miners over thousands of hours. We have all experienced spiking difficulty and diminishing returns, these combined with a bear market are a recipe for disaster.

I have something special to share with you that has proven profitable long term. The incredibly innovative, energy efficient M2 Pro Miner – By MatchX

This is not your traditional Proof-of-work miner but instead something very innovative. The M2 Pro Miner is an IoT Device  that can mine multiple cryptocurrencies using a Proof-of-Participation protocol. Currently MXC, BTC, DHX and soon to be added DOT.

The M2 Pro miner is an extremely energy efficient miner, drawing less than 3.5 watts on average and 6 watts at full load making theM2 Pro is hundreds of times more efficient than traditional miners.  This miner uses less power than a low powered light bulb.

Another great feature of this miner is how quickly it can be set up, no connecting to pools and setting up workers. This miner is truly plug’n’play. You download the app on your mobile, scan the miners QR code and you are ready to mine.

The M2 Pro Miner makes no noise, it is SILENT. You can have this miner in the same room when you sleep and you would not even notice it. It is fantastic that IoT devices offer a new form of earnings without the annoying side effects of traditional PoW mining.






             


           
My experience  and genuine thoughts on the M2 Pro Miner: (11 months
)
This has been one of my best experiences mining I have ever experienced, this miner is neat, sleek, quiet, low powered and more importantly profitable.

The Miner costed around $2700 USD and I have mined a total of 54,100 MXC in the last 11 months. That is currently worth $3873 at the time of writing this.

The miner has been consistently mining over $10 per day every day for 11 months straight (Mining MXC alone). You do not get that type of consistency in the PoW mining world.  The additional profit is from the capital gains from the MXC tokens.

I forget this thing even exists because it’s so small and quiet. This has been one hell of a miner, I highly recommend the M2 Pro Miner.
     









           
The Basics of the miner:
You want to keep miner health at 100% to yield the maximum rewards.
There are a few different factors that affect miner health:

1. Uptime:
How long your miner has been connected to the internet. After 7 days you have 100% uptime

2. Fuel tank:
This is how much MXC you have mined, if you withdraw your mined MXC your miner health will be affected. If you withdraw all of your fuel your miner health will reduce to 20%. You can trade the markets and sell MXC at a high price, then buy it back at a cheaper price and refuel.  Or you can do what I did and don’t withdraw any MXC until you are ready to take profits.

3. Proximity:
You can only have a maximum of 10 miners in a 2km hexagon. If you add more miners you will start to experience reduced miner health.  The more miners you add after that will have reduced miner health to the point where the 15th miner upwards will experience a 100% miner health reduction.





   


         
Bonding MXC:
You can also bond MXC tokens to mine either DHX or BTC, you need to have a miner and bond at least 5000MXC in order to mine BTC (there is no threshold to mine DHX). I am not sure exactly how much Bitcoin can be mined but it should be around the $0.60 per day per 5000MXC. There is also no limit to the amount of MXC that can be bonded. Meaning if my calculations are correct then 50000 MXC will yield $6 per day.
