As someone who works on node mining everywhere, I saw that the @ (ainx. io) NodeX100 mining machine has an expected revenue of 2000U in two months, so I conducted a review. Here are the review data and expected revenue calculation method: one ⃣ Calculation of Expected Revenue for AINX NodeX100 I have seen many people say that buying a NodeX100 mining machine for $599 can recoup their investment in less than ten days. Let's see if that's true. 🔸 Firstly, it needs to be clarified that AINX is a project that provides computing power for AI, while NodeX100 is a physical device, not a virtual node, that can generate revenue by plugging in and connecting to the internet. 🔸 Using the NodeX100 mining machine, the tokens mined are called BIT (similar to points, which can be exchanged for SOL or AINX in Q4); 🔸 If exchanged for AINX, the return may be higher, but it needs to be exchanged for AINX tokens after the AINX mainnet goes online; 🔸 The dedicated mining machine NodeX100 can produce 2400 BITs per day (100 BITs/hour), and can obtain 144000 BITs in two months; 🔸 According to the project exchange formula, the BIT produced by a single device can be exchanged for approximately 500000 AINX. Referring to the mainstream project valuation of DePIN track (such as FDV of 200 million US dollars and a total of 50 billion coins), the unit price of AINX online is about 0.004, and the token value of a single device is about 2000. Based on this calculation, if AINX goes online soon and the market price is good, it will take about 20 days to recoup the investment. two ⃣ Comparison between NodeX100 mining machine and Mac mini M4 chip Due to the fact that the price of the NodeX100 mining machine is basically the same as that of the Mac mini M4 (minimum configuration) on the official website, I have always used the Mac mini series for mining. With the release of the NodeX100 mining machine, it is inevitable to compare it with the Mac mini. The data is shown in the following figure, mainly depending on the chip's purpose: 🔸 In terms of CPU, NodeX100 is equipped with Qualcomm QCS8250 AI chip, which has Qualcomm Hexagon DSP+AI Engine, supports 15 TOPS heterogeneous AI computing power, low power consumption, and is suitable for 24/7 operation. This chip is a highly integrated SoC (system level chip) specially designed for edge AI, intelligent gateway, IoT terminal and other low-power computing devices, and is widely used in intelligent cameras, industrial boxes, AI edge computing nodes and other scenarios. The Mac Mini M4 chip adopts TSMC's second-generation 3nm process, with a 10 core CPU (6 performance cores+4 energy efficiency cores)+10 core GPU (hardware ray tracing support), suitable for locally running large AI models (such as Llama, Gemma, Whisper) and graphics processing. That is to say, the Mac Mini M4 is more inclined towards office computers, while the Qualcomm QCS8250 is more inclined towards industrial and other all-weather stable operating environments. 📌 Both products have their own focuses. It can be said that if you want to make money through mining but don't have the ability to deploy network nodes, purchasing a Mac mini M4 is actually a burden; Use specialized mining equipment, as the specialized mining equipment system is customized, so plug in the power and connect to the network to start mining. three ⃣ About NodeX100 mining machine The NodeX series is a mining machine tailored for AINX, divided into three products: 🔸 NodeX 100: Mining speed of 100 BIT/hour, fully open for daily mining without any restrictions; 🔸 NodeX Pro (8 GPU): Mining speed of 300 BIT/hour, maximum daily gain of 10000 BIT; 🔸 NodeX Pro Max (dedicated AI chip): Mining speed of 500 BIT/hour, maximum daily gain of 15000 BIT. The BIT generation rate of all batches remains consistent. The earlier one participates, the longer the time it takes to accumulate BITs, and a significant first mover advantage will be obtained in the early stages when the total number of BITs in the network is relatively small. At present, only NodeX 100 is available for sale in the market. The first batch will only release 500 units, and the first batch of Node devices will have a 20% increase in BIT base rate and a bonus validity period of 30 days. That means NodeX 100 can mine 120 BITs per hour within 30 days. 🔗 NodeX 100 official link: https://(ainx. io)/? ref=57 ✅ About the project AINX can be understood as a decentralized edge AI version of Cloudflare+Render+HiveMapper, similar to the ideas of traditional Bitcoin and Filecoin, except that resources have shifted from "storage" and "computation" to "inference AI services". Users provide reasoning computing power for home devices, distribute tasks for the project, and reward you with tokens. NodeX100 is a edge computing node specially built for the AINX distributed AI network. It can obtain BIT rewards by running AI reasoning tasks. BIT can eventually be converted into the main network token AINX or SOL. The official gives early users a lot of bonus, and early users benefit much more than later participants. 🔸 The project is expected to release coins in the fourth quarter of 2025, no later than the first quarter of 2026; 🔸 The project has received early financing of 2 million led by Alhapa Gamma
