Profitability Comparison
iPollo G1
iPollo V2
Based on BTC price of $78,252 and current network difficulty as of May 16, 2026. Actual results vary.
Verdict
Run the numbers across every spec and the iPollo G1 edges it: 3 of 6 factors go its way (efficacité, hashrate, rapport qualité-prix). The standout gap is 260% more hashrate (0.0 vs 0.0 TH/s) in the iPollo G1's favour. That said, the iPollo V2 isn't beaten everywhere — it still wins consommation électrique and score de minage domestique and niveau sonore. Review the detailed specs and profitability calculations above to determine which miner best fits your specific setup.
Spec Deltas
The iPollo G1 and iPollo V2 diverge on the metrics below — each gap expressed as a real percentage, not a vague "better":
