This is a stock Bitaxe in a fully 3D printed enclosure which can be plugged directly to any wall outlet in the world. It can be put together in 10 minutes with parts you can find in any major electronics distributor around the world. It can be orange and bright or it can go dark and discreet, you choose. This is my contribution to make mining more decentralised by bringing more Bitaxes in places where they wouldn’t normally go. Once it's refined and reliable, the project will be fully open-sourced. In the meantime, you can contribute to its development by pre-ordering a kit, a full device or just donating. If you have any suggestions, DMs are open.

🇲🇬 𝗕𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗿 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 ⚡ Madagascar is one of the most remote places on Earth, an island full of biodiversity but also marked by energy poverty and limited opportunities. The Bitcoin Madagascar Movement wants to flip that reality by building renewable microgrids, mining Bitcoin, and teaching communities how to use it to create new income streams and digital access. The impact reaches far beyond money. Clean energy reduces deforestation, protects Madagascar’s unique environment, and brings people online for the first time. As an island in the Indian Ocean, Madagascar also strengthens the decentralization of the Bitcoin network. And like El Salvador, Bitcoin adoption could even spark a new wave of tourism. Led by @MadaGasBit, this is about giving communities real tools: renewable power, education, and Bitcoin to build a more sustainable and independent future. At Geyser, we believe Madagascar has the potential to become the Bitcoin capital of the Indian Ocean. 👉 Support here: Bitcoin Madagascar Movement on Geyser
