Profitability Comparison
iPollo V1
Jasminer X16-Q
Based on BTC price of $78,186 and current network difficulty as of May 16, 2026. Actual results vary.
Verdict
Our scoring model gives the nod to the Jasminer X16-Q, which leads on 5 of 6 weighted factors (efficacité, consommation électrique, score de minage domestique, niveau sonore, rapport qualité-prix). Its biggest concrete edge: 80% better power draw (3,100 vs 620 W). The iPollo V1 holds the edge in hashrate. The right pick still depends on your power cost and noise tolerance — the breakdowns above make that call concrete.
Spec Deltas
Here is every spec where the iPollo V1 and Jasminer X16-Q actually differ, with the gap quantified:
- iPollo V1 85% more hashrate (0.0 vs 0.0 TH/s)
- Jasminer X16-Q 80% better power draw (3,100 vs 620 W)
- Jasminer X16-Q 63% better efficacité (861,111 vs 317,949 J/TH)
- iPollo V1 400% more heat output (10,577 vs 2,115 BTU/hr)
- Jasminer X16-Q 195% more score de minage domestique (22.0 vs 65.0)
Cost & ROI Over Time
A miner pays for itself in profit, not specs. These projections track upfront cost against one, two and three years of net earnings at $0.10/kWh.
| iPollo V1 | Metric | Jasminer X16-Q |
|---|---|---|
| $1,699 | Upfront cost (MSRP) | $789 |
| -$7.44 | Daily net profit | -$1.49 |
| -$4,415 | Net after 1 year | -$1,332 |
| -$7,130 | Net after 2 years | -$1,875 |
| -$9,846 | Net after 3 years | -$2,418 |
| Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) | Payback period | Does not pay back at current rates (negative daily profit) |
Projections assume continuous operation, a flat $0.10/kWh rate, and no hardware degradation, pool fees, or BTC price change. Real-world ROI varies.
