Real SHA-256 ASIC hardware solo mining DigiByte (SHA-256). You keep 100% of any block found.
Each rental is a unique contract — your DGB payout address, your block reward.
AWM Mining uses the x402 payment protocol — the emerging standard for machine-to-machine commerce. When an AI agent requests hashrate, the server responds with an HTTP 402 (Payment Required) containing exact USDC payment details. The agent pays automatically via Coinbase AgentKit, then retries — receiving stratum credentials in a single round trip. No API keys. No order IDs. No multi-step confirmation.
Base is Coinbase's L2 — built on the OP Stack, FDIC-insured entry via Coinbase, and natively supported by Coinbase AgentKit. Any AI agent with a Coinbase developer wallet can rent hashrate from AWM with zero manual setup after a one-time 5-minute wallet initialization.
USDC on Base is the cleanest settlement token available to autonomous agents: $1.00 is always $1.00, gas is fractions of a cent, and Coinbase's compliance infrastructure means agents can transact without legal ambiguity. This is the payment stack that scales from a single NerdAxe to a 10-petahash fleet.
