## Bitcoin Mining

Bitcoin mining is a passive income system that needs a physical power grid. Unlike printers, you manage generators, power leads, and fuel to keep your miners running.

---

## Equipment Overview

Everything is in the F4 menu.

### Power System

| Equipment | Price | Limit | Purpose |
| - | - | - | - |
| **Generator** | £5,000 | 2 | Powers your miners. Holds 500 fuel and outputs 10 power |
| **Power Lead** | £5 | 5 | Connects a generator to a miner |
| **Extension Lead** | £8 | 1 | Four sockets, so one generator can feed several miners |
| **Fuel** | £150 | 2 | Refills a generator (+250 fuel) |

### Mining Hardware

| Equipment | Price | Limit | Power Draw | Notes |
| - | - | - | - | - |
| **Bitminer S1** | £500 | 2 | 1 | Entry level, 1 core |
| **Bitminer S2** | £750 | 2 | 2.5 | Mid-tier, 2 cores |
| **Bitminer Rack** | £5,000 | 1 | 1 per server | Holds up to 8 Bitminer Servers |
| **Bitminer Server** | £1,500 | 8 | 1 each | +2 cores per server (rack only) |

Power Math

One generator (10 power) runs a full rack with both S1 miners, or both S1s and both S2s. Plan your power grid carefully.

### Extras

| Equipment | Price | Purpose |
| - | - | - |
| **Large Fuel** | £500 | A barrel of 1,000 fuel |
| **Fuel Tank** | £60,000 | Stores 2,500 fuel for your generator |
| **Fuel Line** | £15,000 | Connects a fuel tank to a generator |
| **Solar Panel** | £90,000 | Free power from sunlight |
| **Solar Converter** | £75,000 | Turns solar power into power for your miners |
| **Solar Cable** | £2,000 | Connects solar panels to the converter |

## Setting Up Your Mining Operation

1\. Power Setup2. Connecting Miners3. Desktop & Upgrades

### Setting Up Power

**Place your Generator** in a secure spot in your base

**Add Fuel**. Touch a fuel can to the generator with your gravity gun

**Place Power Leads**. These connect your generator to miners

**Turn it on**. Press E on the generator to start it

Generators burn fuel all the time they're running. A full rack empties a full generator in about 10 minutes.

## Power Management

### Power Budget

| Setup | Total Power Draw | Can Run On 1 Generator? |
| - | - | - |
| 2x S1 | 2 | ✅ Yes |
| 2x S1 + 2x S2 | 7 | ✅ Yes |
| Full Rack (8 servers) | 8 | ✅ Yes |
| Full Rack + 2x S1 | 10 | ✅ Yes (exactly) |
| Full Rack + S2 | 10.5 | ❌ No, you need 2 generators |

### Fuel Runtime

| Setup | Runtime (Full Generator) |
| - | - |
| 1x S1 | about 80 minutes |
| 2x S1 + 2x S2 | about 12 minutes |
| Full Rack | about 10 minutes |

Fuel Burns Fast

At high loads you'll need to refuel often. Stock up on fuel, add a fuel tank, or go solar.

## Remote Access

Install remote access on a miner from its desktop for £50,000, then type `/remotebitminers` in chat to check and manage it from anywhere.

## Common Problems

### Miner has no power

**Cause:** Not connected to a running generator.

**Solution:** Check your power lead connections. Make sure the generator is turned on (press E) and has fuel.

### Generator keeps turning off

**Cause:** Out of fuel, or too many miners on it.

**Solution:** Add more fuel with your gravity gun. If the generator warns about too much power, move some miners to a second generator.

### Rack isn't mining anything

**Cause:** Empty rack with no Bitminer Servers installed.

**Solution:** Buy Bitminer Servers and touch them to the rack to install them.

### Overloading the generator

**Cause:** Too many miners drawing power.

**Solution:** A single generator outputs 10 power. Add a second generator and split your miners between them.

### Desktop won't open

**Cause:** Standing too far away.

**Solution:** Get closer to the miner.

### Can't upgrade my miner

**Cause:** Not enough money or already at max level.

**Solution:** Check upgrade costs on the desktop. Every upgrade has a level cap.

## Quick Reference

- **Generator**: Powers everything, needs fuel, outputs 10 power
- **Power Leads**: Physical cables connecting generator to miners
- **Fuel**: Add to the generator with your gravity gun (+250 per can)
- **Rack**: Holds 8 Bitminer Servers, the best setup
- **Desktop**: Press E to manage, sell bitcoin, and upgrade
- **Full rack drains fast**: about 10 minutes of fuel at full load
