BlockDAG X10 Miner Ships, Boosts Mining Efficiency 10x, Presale Hits $354M

BlockDAG’s latest innovation, the X10 miner, marks a pivotal step in the project’s transition from concept to tangible infrastructure. Announced to begin shipping globally on August 15, the X10 device promises to amplify BDAG mining efficiency by 10 times compared to the existing X1 mobile app, offering users daily payouts of up to 200 BDAG per unit [1]. This plug-and-play hardware eliminates traditional mining barriers, such as complex setups, external cables, or SIM card dependencies, enabling users to initiate mining via a simple QR scan and Wi-Fi connection [1]. The product’s design prioritizes accessibility, with no technical expertise or energy-intensive operations required [1].

The X10’s scalability is a key differentiator. Each device operates independently, allowing users to scale their mining efforts linearly—owning 10 or 20 units could yield up to 2,000–4,000 BDAG daily [1]. The device’s backend ensures continuity even during Wi-Fi outages, resuming mining cycles upon reconnection without data loss [1]. Users must manually restart sessions every 24 hours, aligning with BlockDAG’s philosophy of minimizing user engagement while maintaining network stability [1]. The X1 app, compatible with Android and iOS, centralizes device management, enabling users to track, name, and unpair multiple X10s from a single interface [1].

Automated firmware updates over Wi-Fi further simplify maintenance, with future enhancements planned to include gamified features and performance optimizations [1]. A leaderboard within the X1 app introduces competitive elements, tracking user rankings based on mining volume and device uptime [1]. This gamification could incentivize large-scale miners to operate 10–50 units, fostering community engagement and visibility [1].

Device flexibility is another highlight. Users can reset X10s to reassign them to new Wi-Fi networks or resell them without compromising earned BDAG, which remains securely tied to the user’s X1 app wallet [1]. This decoupling of hardware and rewards supports reuse and secondary market potential [1].

With the presale raising over $354 million toward a $600 million target, the X10’s launch reinforces BlockDAG’s credibility as a project focused on real-world utility [1]. The physical miner addresses skepticism around theoretical models, positioning BDAG as a scalable ecosystem capable of mass adoption. Early shipments, though limited initially, will expand in subsequent weeks, accompanied by anticipated unboxing content and user feedback [1].

The X10’s impact extends beyond technical capabilities. By lowering entry barriers and offering a maintenance-free experience, BlockDAG targets both individual and institutional miners, aiming to democratize access to its network [1]. As the project nears major exchange listings, the X10’s integration into the broader BDAG ecosystem could accelerate token adoption and network growth [1].
