₿ BitcoinMinePath/ simulator Simulator
WORKSPACE / OVERVIEWBuilt for the curious.

THE PATH STARTS WITH ONE HASH

Your virtual mining lab.

Explore mining statistics without a physical miner.

When your Bitaxe arrives · setup guide
  1. Power up your Bitaxe using its supplied power adapter.
  2. Follow its setup guide to connect it to the same local network as this computer.
  3. Open AxeOS using the miner's IP address. Configure your chosen pool's host, port, and worker or public BTC payout address using the pool's instructions.
  4. Select Real hardware here and add the miner's IP address or hostname.
  5. Check for a live hash rate and accepted shares. Use Open AxeOS on its card to return to the miner's settings.

Mining runs on the Bitaxe independently of this dashboard. Real BTC rewards and payouts are recorded by your pool; the simulated balance remains separate. Never enter a wallet seed phrase or private key.

YOUR NEXT STEPS

From curious to connected.

One step at a time.
01 / EXPLORE

Get a feel for mining.

Adjust virtual output and share targets. Watch hash rate, power, and training shares change without buying hardware.

Try the simulator ↗
02 / PLAN

Understand the costs.

Use your electricity tariff and the device’s power draw to budget running costs before choosing a miner.

03 / CONNECT

Make it your own.

When you have a Bitaxe, configure it in AxeOS and run this dashboard locally to see device readings.

Read the setup guide ↗
Does this website mine Bitcoin?

The simulator generates training statistics in your browser. Real mining requires dedicated hardware. A connected Bitaxe mines independently; this dashboard reads its status.

Can I withdraw the demo balance?

No. Demo satoshis are fictional training counters. Real mining rewards are tracked and paid by your chosen pool under its own rules.

Why does hardware monitoring run locally?

Your Bitaxe lives on your private network. Run python3 bitaxe.py on a computer on the same network and open http://127.0.0.1:8080 to connect it.

Where are my settings stored?

Preferences stay in this browser. Use Back up settings to move them to another browser. Demo balance, shares, elapsed time, work, energy, and pause state are saved automatically. Return using this browser to continue. Time while the page is closed or hidden adds no demo rewards. Charts reset on reload. Clearing browser data removes saved progress; Use Back up progress and Restore progress above to move your demo to another browser. Settings backups contain preferences only.

Dashboard preferences

Back up miner addresses, mode, refresh interval, and simulator settings. Restoring replaces your current preferences and clears chart history.
