Mining & Hardware Editor
ASIC miners Home mining Energy & hashrate
Aisha runs a working test bench of miners in her garage — every ASIC reviewed on this site has hashed on her own rack, on her own power bill, for at least 30 days before it gets a score. She has mined bitcoin at home since 2020, from a single Bitaxe to multi-unit immersion setups.
A licensed electrician turned electrical engineer, she spent eight years designing industrial power systems before covering mining full-time. She writes our miner reviews, the hashrate explainers, and the home-mining safety guidance — including the wiring advice most review sites skip.

HOW I REVIEW
Every miner runs on my bench for 30 days minimum: real kill-a-watt measurements, real noise readings at one meter, real heat in a real room — not spec-sheet numbers. I publish my measured efficiency next to the manufacturer claim, and the gap is part of the score. Our full methodology →
