How to Choose the Best Onocoy Miner for You

Finding the Perfect Onocoy Miner for Your Journey

Onocoy’s decentralized GNSS network, with over 6,362 stations globally as of August 15, 2025, powers ultra-precise location data for agriculture, drone navigation, and autonomous vehicles, targeting a $250 billion market. Miners earn ONO tokens on the Solana blockchain, with the top three stations in a 15km radius claiming the best rewards based on data quality. Selecting the right miner hinges on your budget, location, and goals. This guide reviews five options to help you find the perfect fit for your 2025 mining journey.

Assessing Your Mining Needs

Start by evaluating your setup. Miner density in your 15km radius matters only the top three earn full rewards, so signal strength and quality are key. Consider your budget, ease of setup, and whether you need quick deployment or top performance in crowded areas. My rural Onolink Miner worked well initially, but upgrades might be needed if nearby competition increases; check local competition with the Onocoy explorer to plan ahead.

Final Selection Tips and Practical Advice

Mount your miner on a rooftop or pole with a clear 10°+ sky view, using the Onocoy explorer’s visibility map to avoid obstacles. Make sure the antenna is placed above hedges or buildings that block the sky view by using metal poles that are mounted tightly. Having the power supply and internet connection is also crucial to keep constant connection. Start small with a one or two miners, track via the dashboard, and upgrade as needed.
