VolcMiner D1 18.5Gh Scrypt Litecoin & Dogecoin Miner: Product Overview

What Is the D1 and What Does It Mine?

The VolcMiner D1 18.5Gh is a dedicated Scrypt ASIC miner for Litecoin & Dogecoin. Manufactured by VolcMiner. This model belongs to the VolcMiner D1 Series. Released in 2024.

Is the D1 Right for Your Setup?

Mining starts with power. A competitive electricity tariff or surplus renewable generation can give your operation a useful cost advantage, while higher electricity prices can make an otherwise capable miner uneconomic. Compare your rate and chosen coin in the earnings table, allowing for cooling, pool fees and any other operating costs.

Prefer to avoid the day-to-day work of running your own mining site? Our managed ASIC hosting services offer an alternative, with power, cooling and monitoring handled at the facility. Explore current locations and rates, then speak to our team to confirm compatibility, availability, minimum quantities and any additional fees.

For this air cooled model, plan a clear route for cool intake air and warm exhaust air. Allow for fan noise and a continuous electrical load, with the supply and connection assessed for the manufacturer’s requirements.

Confirm the power supply, leads and cooling equipment included with your exact variant, and obtain its manufacturer’s installation manual before arranging the installation.

Which Coins Can the D1 Mine?

Mining Compatibility

Mining on the Scrypt algorithm, you can directly secure Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE) and DigiByte (DGB), while merged-mined coins-Dingocoin (DINGO), Pepecoin (PEP), Luckycoin (LKY), Bellscoin (BELLS), Junkcoin (JKC), Shibacoin (SHIC) and CraftCoin (CRC)-boost your payouts; you can also earn Bitcoin and other coins by selling your Scrypt hash-power on the NiceHash Hashpower Marketplace (Nicehash-Scrypt).

How Scrypt Mining Works

Scrypt is the proof of work algorithm used by Litecoin and Dogecoin. It combines hashing with memory access, although specialist ASICs are now established equipment for this work. Dogecoin supports merged mining, allowing suitable pools to use the work performed for another Scrypt chain, such as Litecoin, to secure Dogecoin as well. Receiving rewards from both networks depends on the pool and its payout arrangements. A Scrypt miner cannot switch to Bitcoin mining simply by changing its pool address.

Hashpower marketplaces

  • NiceHashBTC

Coin and merged mining support depend on the network, pool and firmware. Selling hashpower through a marketplace is different from directly mining its payout coin.

D1 Cooling Method: Air

No additional cooling equipment is required. However, good airflow, air separation, and effective cooling practices are essential for optimal hashing.

ASIC Miner FAQ

D1 Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to what buyers ask most before ordering this miner — live profitability and ROI, power and cooling, payment and delivery, hosting and warranty. If anything is unclear, our team is one message away.
1

About the D1

Key specs and live earnings for this exact machine — pulled straight from our live product data.

The D1 is a VolcMiner Litecoin & Dogecoin miner built on the Scrypt algorithm. It delivers 18.5GH of hashrate at 3885W with an efficiency of 210W/GH, using Air cooling.

Every unit is supplied brand new through The Mining Shop UK — inspected, tested and quality checked before dispatch.

Our live data currently estimates around £200.96 per month on a 24-hour average for the D1, with an estimated ROI of about 1560 days at today's prices and network difficulty.

Real earnings move with coin price, difficulty and your electricity or hosting rate — treat every figure as an estimate, never a guarantee.

The D1 mines Litecoin & Dogecoin and other cryptocurrencies that use the Scrypt algorithm, so you can point it at whichever supported coin or pool suits your strategy.

ASIC miners are algorithm-specific, so it cannot switch to coins on other algorithms — if you want a different coin, browse the full range or ask our team what fits.

2

Ordering, Payment and Delivery

How payment, dispatch and duties-included UK delivery work when you order.

We accept UK bank transfer and selected stablecoin payments such as USDT or USDC. We do not take cash, and card payments are generally not accepted on high-value hardware.

For your security we never change bank details by email — if anything looks unusual, stop and call us before sending funds.

In-stock machines are dispatched within 24–48 business hours of cleared payment, and UK delivery typically takes 2–5 business days on a tracked service.

We can also ship straight to a hosting facility, or arrange collection by appointment once funds have cleared.

Yes — on direct orders the price you see is the price you pay. Delivery, import duties and applicable taxes are handled by us.

That means no surprise courier invoices or customs paperwork after checkout.

3

Setup, Pools and Hosting

Running this miner at home, pool setup before dispatch, and what hosting looks like in practice.

Check your power, heat and noise first: the D1 draws 3885W and uses Air cooling, so it may need a dedicated circuit and proper ventilation rather than a standard socket.

If home is not practical, hosting gives you the same machine on wholesale power with heat and noise handled for you.

Yes. Send us your pool and worker details and we test your miner on your own pool before it ships — you can watch it hashing on your pool dashboard before it even arrives.

We never need your pool passwords, and every order includes a welcome pack covering the practical steps.

Yes. You own the miner, we run it in a specialist facility with 96–99% uptime targets, and rewards go straight from the pool to your own wallet — we never hold your coins.

Hosting is typically a 12-month term with the first month paid upfront — see how hosting works, or ask about Mine Before It Arrives (£40 + VAT) to start earning while your D1 is still in transit.

4

Warranty, Repairs and Support

The cover, repairs and UK support behind every machine we sell.

A 12-month manufacturer warranty as standard. We log serial numbers, photograph key components and keep your test reports on file, which makes any claim far smoother.

Overclocking, unauthorised firmware, unsuitable power supplies or third-party dismantling voids cover — talk to us before modifying anything.

Yes — diagnostics and repairs are in-house services covering hashboards, PSUs, fans and firmware, with a £150 + VAT diagnosis fee deducted from your final invoice if we complete the repair.

Repair customers get a dashboard showing progress, photos and inspection records.

We have mined since 2011 and sell only brand-new, genuine hardware — every machine is inspected, serial-logged and test-run on your own pool before dispatch.

Sales, hosting, repairs and honest advice under one roof — talk to the team before you order and you will never buy blind.
