Overview
The VolcMiner D1 (16.2G) is an ASIC miner from VolcMiner, optimized for the Scrypt algorithm. It’s designed for mining cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), Bells (BEL), and other Scrypt-based coins. This model appears to be an air-cooled variant (unlike the hydro-cooled higher-hashrate versions), suitable for home or small-scale professional setups, though its high power draw and noise make it less ideal for residential use without proper ventilation. Released around October 2024, it offers a hashrate of approximately 16-17 Gh/s across variants, with the 16.2 Gh/s spec commonly cited. Prices for new units range from $4,699 to $8,400, depending on the retailer, batch, and exact hashrate configuration.
Specifications
Based on official and aggregated data from multiple sources, here’s a summary of the key specs. Note that there are minor inconsistencies across vendors (e.g., hashrate from 30 Gh/s to 33 Gh/s and power from 7600W to 9300W), which may reflect different configurations or testing conditions.
