I mined IRON on a laptop for 7 days. Today I'm shipping the tools I wish I had.

I run the world's smallest transparent mining operation: one RTX 4070 laptop, lolMiner, FishHash, IRON on HeroMiners. 7 days straight, every watt and every share logged publicly.

The honest numbers

  • 18.3 MH/s at 43W on a 4070 Laptop
  • ~0.07 IRON paid out every hour, txid on-chain
  • ¥0.39/day net after electricity (yes, really that thin)

Latest payout tx: 9965ddd2afcb155931e1d406c8b971670b7e50aa0a6faf1ba128e384bb893cbe

Verify on explorer.ironfish.network — don't trust me.

Let's be blunt

Laptop mining is NOT a get-rich scheme. It's a ¥0.4/day hobby that teaches you how PoW actually works.

If a tool promises you 10x ROI on a 4070 — close the tab.

What I can sell you is time saved and mistakes avoided.

StoneVast Pro = 3 tools, no promises

  1. Real-time node dashboard — hashrate, power, net/day, cumulative
  2. Electricity break-even calculator — input ¥/kWh → go/no-go verdict
  3. APR vs APY explainer — so you stop confusing the two

60 IRON first month (~$4.5). 7-day 50%-back refund if useless.

One rule I will never break

Pro does NOT boost referral share.

  • Standard 5-20%, Genesis up to 30% adjustable, Pro = 0% extra
  • One-level referral only — no pyramid structure
  • Ledger public. No promised returns.

Don't buy Pro if

  • You expect to quit your job mining on a laptop
  • Your electricity is >¥0.8/kWh (the calculator will tell you NO anyway)
  • You've never run a miner for 24h straight

Buy it if you want to verify the numbers yourself, faster.

DYOR.
