Bitmain Antminer L9

Bitmain Antminer L9

Bitmain Antminer L9, introduced in June 2024, is the most powerful, and with an efficiency of 210 W/Gh also the most efficient, ASIC miner for mining Litecoin and Dogecoin. Compared to its predecessor (Antminer L7), the L9 offers almost double the power. One of the advantages of the Scrypt mining algorithm is the ability to dual mine Litecoin and Dogecoin cryptocurrency. You simply set the miner to mine LTC and automatically get rewarded for mining DOGE as well.

Technical parameters of the miner

Cooling is taken care of by two fans on the front, which draw cold air into the miner, and two fans on the back, which take the now warm air away again. The manufacturer Bitmain gives a 6 month warranty for the miner. The package includes the Antminer L9; an Ethernet cable to connect it to the network; power supply cable and a filter grid to prevent dust from settling on the mining chips, thus extending its life. The dimensions and weight of the device are - 40 x 19.5 x 29 cm (14.2 kg).

Soundproofing of the miner

You can buy a Silent box that can be added to the miner, which can reduce the noise level from 75 dB to a level where you can operate the miner from the comfort of your home without any problems. The turbine will provide more optimal cooling than standard fans, reducing electricity consumption and extending the life of the miner.

In addition, the box comes with a set of extensions and tubes that allow you to exhaust warm air directly from the miner and use the residual heat to heat your home. This solution gives home cryptocurrency mining a whole new dimension, saving you hundreds of Euros a year in heating costs. Another advantage is the smart app that you can use to control the basic settings of the box. Of course, there are also chips that shut down the miner in case of overheating or fan failure.

Recommended mining pools

For Litecoin + Dogecoin mining we recommend ViaBTC.com and F2Pool.com. How to get started and set up for the first time? Find out everything you need to know in the mining tab.

Miner hosting

Mining cryptocurrencies in your home makes sense mainly when you have access to cheap electricity (e.g. from surplus energy from a photovoltaic plant) or when mining along with using the surplus heat to heat your home. In case you do not have access to a source of cheap electricity, we recommend using hosting in our data centre abroad. The cost of electricity is only $0.09/kWh, so with us you can save thousands of Euros a year on your mining operation. We will take care of the purchase, shipping, clearance, initial start-up and setup, and regular maintenance of your miner. So the only thing you have to do is choosing your miner.

Litecoin halving

The next Litecoin halving (periodic reduction of the reward per mined block - for LTC by 50% once every four years) is scheduled for 2027. Dogecoin does not use the halving system. Miners may thus not have to worry about a sudden reduction in their rewards for the next 4 years.
