Baikal BK-D
Quick answer
The Baikal BK-D is a Blake256r14 miner rated about 320 GH/s at roughly 1,100 W. An industrial-class unit — loud and power-hungry, best suited to a dedicated mining space, not living areas.
Heater-Class Miner
At 1,100W, this miner outputs approximately 3753 BTU/hr of heat — equivalent to a standard electric space heater. Every watt consumed by an ASIC miner is converted to heat with 100% efficiency, making it a space heater that also mines Bitcoin.
During heating season, miner heat can offset part of the heat a room would otherwise need from another electric heater. The economics depend on your electricity rate, room heat demand, BTC price, network difficulty, and noise constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the current mining economics for the Baikal BK-D?
At $0.07/kWh, the Baikal BK-D currently shows an estimated daily net cost of $1.84 before pool fees and hardware cost. Lower electricity rates, network changes, BTC price changes, or useful heat recovery can change the result.
Can the Baikal BK-D heat my home?
The Baikal BK-D outputs approximately 3753 BTU/hr of heat. For reference, a typical space heater produces 5,000-5,500 BTU/hr. All electrical energy consumed by the miner is converted to heat, making it 100% efficient as a heater. D-Central offers Bitcoin Space Heater builds designed specifically for home heating integration.
What power supply does the Baikal BK-D need?
The Baikal BK-D draws 1,100W of power. You need a power supply rated for at least 1,210W with appropriate voltage (200-240V AC). D-Central stocks compatible power supplies in our shop. Always use a quality PSU from a reputable manufacturer to protect the miner and wiring.
