Goldshell XT-BOX (580GH)

580 GH/s SHA3x at 400W and 0.69 J/GH efficiency. ±5 percent hashrate and power tolerance. Released September 2025 by Goldshell. The XT-BOX mines Tari (XTM), not Kaspa. This is the flagship standalone unit in Goldshell's SHA3x lineup, delivering 5.8 times the hashrate of the modular XT Card (100 GH/s).

No. MM's product page incorrectly labels the XT-BOX as a Kaspa miner. The XT-BOX mines Tari (XTM) on the SHA3x algorithm. This is confirmed by Goldshell's official product page, which explicitly states "Cryptocurrency: $XTM," and by every major distributor worldwide (BT-Miners, CryptoMinerBros, Asic Marketplace, ASIC Mining Central, Yesmining, Miners1688, Apexto, Viperatech). Kaspa uses kHeavyHash, a completely different algorithm. For Kaspa mining, see the Bitmain KS7 (45 or 40 TH/s) or Goldshell KA Box (1.18 TH/s) in MillionMiner's catalog.

Tari is a Layer 1 blockchain protocol built in Rust, focused on scaling on-chain user bases through native app distribution and privacy features. SHA3x is Tari's proof of work algorithm. The project targets the airdrop-farmer user acquisition problem facing Ethereum and other established chains by designing Sybil-resistant engagement mechanisms. Tari and Goldshell have an active partnership with a "Tari x Goldshell community event" promoting Tari mining adoption. XTM currently trades on smaller exchanges with growing but thin liquidity.

XT Card at 100 GH/s, 65W, 0.65 J/GH, modular card requiring Goldshell Byte host, $89 to $150 direct. XT-BOX at 580 GH/s, 400W, 0.69 J/GH, standalone device, $1,431 to $1,639 direct. The XT-BOX delivers 5.8 times the hashrate at similar per GH efficiency. The XT-BOX is standalone (no Byte host required). For buyers entering Tari mining fresh, the XT-BOX delivers more hashrate per total CapEx when Byte host costs are factored into the XT Card pathway. The XT Card is more flexible for incremental capacity additions through the Goldshell Byte ecosystem.

Yes, at current conditions. MillionMiner calculator at $0.08 per kWh: +$0.81 daily ($1.58 revenue minus $0.77 electricity). Monthly: +$24.30. At Goldshell direct pricing of $1,431, payback approximately 21 months. At $0.07 per kWh: +$0.91 daily. At $0.05 per kWh: +$1.18 daily. Profitable at any electricity rate below approximately $0.16 per kWh. The current margins reflect Tari's young network with low total hashrate and limited mining competition. As more hardware deploys on Tari, difficulty rises and per unit revenue compresses. Early adopters capture the current favorable window.

Most distributor sources confirm 110 to 240V universal voltage. MM lists 220 to 280V which would exclude North American 110V residential outlets. Goldshell's official product page does not explicitly state voltage range in reviewed materials. Verify with MillionMiner before deployment planning. If 110V is supported (most distributor consensus), the XT-BOX plugs into any standard US residential outlet. At 400W on 110V draws approximately 3.6 amps.

35 dB from two cooling fans. Below typical office background noise. Comparable to a whisper or quiet library. Suitable for home office, living room, bedroom (with preference), or any indoor environment. Multiple units do not stack linearly in noise: four XT-BOX units in the same room produce approximately 41 dB aggregate, still well within comfortable indoor noise levels.

198 x 150 x 96 mm at approximately 2.4 kg (MM spec sheet lists 2.2 kg; most distributors including CryptoMinerBros and Asic Marketplace list 2.43 kg). Approximately the size of a large hardcover book or small desktop printer. Easy single hand placement on desk, shelf, or countertop.

2.4 GHz WiFi and wired Ethernet dual connectivity. Goldshell mobile app provides remote monitoring, pool configuration, and miner status control from your phone without requiring a PC or browser. Standard web dashboard also available for browser-based management. WiFi setup eliminates the need for Ethernet cable runs, enabling flexible placement anywhere with wireless signal and a power outlet.

Plug XT-BOX into wall outlet (110-240V). Download Goldshell mobile app or access web dashboard. Connect via WiFi (configure through app) or plug in Ethernet cable. Find miner IP through app, router DHCP, or network scanning. Configure SHA3x Tari mining pool URL and XTM wallet address. Verify hashrate stabilizes at approximately 580 GH/s within 10 to 15 minutes. Total setup approximately 10 minutes through the mobile app.

SHA3x Tari mining pools. The Tari mining pool ecosystem is growing as the network matures. Current operational pools for XTM mining include specialized Tari pools and NiceHash SHA3x marketplace (Bitcoin payout). Research currently active Tari pools before deployment. Pool availability is more limited than major algorithms (SHA-256, Scrypt) due to Tari's younger network but adequate for meaningful mining.

Yes. At 400W per unit, a standard 15 amp 110V circuit (1,800W capacity) supports four units (1,600W total). Four XT-BOX units produce 2.32 TH/s SHA3x at +$3.24 daily profit. Each unit connects independently via WiFi or Ethernet. The compact form factor and low noise allow multi unit deployment in the same residential space. A six unit deployment requires a dedicated 20A circuit (2,400W). Commercial 220V circuits support larger fleets.

XTM currently trades on smaller exchanges with growing but thin liquidity relative to established cryptocurrencies. Not yet on Binance, Coinbase, or Kraken as of April 2026. Research current XTM exchange availability before committing hardware to long term deployment. Goldshell's active partnership with Tari suggests ongoing manufacturer and ecosystem investment, which may accelerate exchange listings, but this is speculative.

MM lists 5 to 45 degrees Celsius at 5 to 95 percent humidity. CryptoMinerBros lists 0 to 35 degrees Celsius. Asic Marketplace lists 5 to 45 degrees Celsius at 10 to 90 percent humidity. Verify with Goldshell documentation. At 400W heat output (approximately 1,365 BTU/hour), heat rejection is manageable in any residential space without HVAC considerations.

Yes per MM box contents and most distributor listings. Built in or included external PSU accepting 110 to 240V. Connect directly to any standard wall outlet. No external PSU to source separately. Standard AC power cable included.

Minimal desktop device maintenance. Periodic dust wipe of two cooling fans and exterior. Monitor hashrate through Goldshell mobile app or web dashboard. Released September 2025, units have approximately 7 months of field reliability data. Consumer oriented enclosure design for home environments rather than industrial dust conditions.

180 day Goldshell manufacturer warranty per CryptoMinerBros, Asic Marketplace, and standard Goldshell product policy. Standard warranty period for Goldshell Box series products. Covers manufacturing defects and hardware failures under normal operating conditions. Verify specific warranty terms through MillionMiner as the selling distributor.

MillionMiner hosting typically requires industrial scale power commitments. The XT-BOX at 400W falls below typical hosting minimums unless deployed in large fleet quantities (10+ units for 4 kW+ aggregate). The XT-BOX is designed primarily for home desk deployment through Goldshell's WiFi and mobile app ecosystem. For hosted XTM mining at industrial scale, multiple XT-BOX units would need to be bundled to meet facility minimums.

The XT-BOX is one of the few Goldshell products currently generating positive margins at standard residential electricity rates. Buy if: you want to accumulate XTM early while Tari's network difficulty is still low, you believe in Tari's user acquisition thesis and Goldshell's ecosystem partnership, you have 110 to 240V electrical service (verify voltage range with MillionMiner), you value WiFi and mobile app control over traditional mining hardware interfaces, or you want the flagship compact Tari miner with zero Byte host dependency. Do not buy if: you think this is a Kaspa miner (it mines Tari XTM, not Kaspa KAS), you need liquid exit markets for immediate token liquidation (XTM exchange liquidity is thin), or you expect current profitability to persist indefinitely (early stage margins compress with adoption).
