Overview

Sazmining sells hosted Bitcoin miners you own - the rig is yours by serial number, hosted in partner facilities from Paraguay to Norway, with payouts going from the mining pool straight to your wallet [1][9]. Its published pricing page is dated the day of our check and links to a live store [1]. The model is transparent; the fine print that matters is the site-by-site insurance difference [4].

What you can rent

Hosted rigs at four live regions (Paraguay 9 MW expanded, Texas, South Dakota, Norway - all listed on the datacenters page [3]) plus an Ethiopia site listed Operational on the status page but missing from the public datacenters page [3][9]. Wisconsin - the original 1.2 MW hydro facility - is retired [3]. You buy the rig (the published Paraguay build is 2,467 dollars by serial number) and pay power plus a 15% management fee [1]. No minimum order - one rig works [1].

Contract & terms

The Texas service agreement (April 2026) publishes its economics verbatim: power cost of $0.062 per kilowatt-hour "passed directly to you at the same rate" and a 15% management fee on block rewards [3]. The critical asymmetry: the Texas agreement states customer equipment "is not insured against loss or damage" while Paraguay's agreement states it is insured - and Paraguay carries a 90% annual performance guarantee [4][5]. Delaware law governs with JAMS arbitration [3]. KYC: no identity-document policy is published - the terms require age of majority and allow periodic OFAC scanning of your wallet addresses [6]. Payouts are non-custodial: "from the pool straight to an address you control" [1].

Proof & verifiability

Unusually strong for hosting: the pricing page is dated and store-linked [1][2], service-agreement PDFs are public with the actual numbers [4][5], the status page is live (all services operational, 99.957% uptime, curtailment events logged) [10], and a third-party Braiins case study confirms the footprint and adds an honest detail - Sazmining "does not own any of those sites" [8]. Community evidence of real hosted rigs exists (resale posts "hosted and hashing" in Paraguay) [11]. What stays unverifiable: facility ownership claims beyond the case study's own note [7].

Reliability & history

Founded per press coverage, growing fast: the Soluna partnership announcement (3 MW at Project Dorothy 1B) ran on Business Wire, and the Wild Sats Club loyalty program launched in early October 2026 per the news feed [12]. Reddit sentiment is operator-active with no fraud allegations [11]. The honest structural note is the Braiins case study's own note: the sites are leased, not owned [8] - a partner failure hits all clients at once [12]. The Wisconsin retirement shows the model has already absorbed one site shutdown [3].

Pricing

Published and store-linked: the Paraguay total-to-start is 3,275 dollars (rig 2,467 + 150 setup + 493 import/racking + 165 first month) [1]. 15% management fee at the pool; power at cost (Texas 6.2 cents per kWh published in the agreement) [1][4]. Crypto payment takes 5% off the rig price; no minimum order [1]. Wild Sats Club discounts the management fee 1-6% by hashrate tier, recalculated monthly [8]. KYC: unpublished as a formal policy - age of majority plus OFAC wallet scanning [6].

Verdict

Sazmining is the most contract-transparent host we track - its service agreements publish the actual power rate, the actual fee percentage, and (crucially) the actual insurance position per region [4][5]. Read that last part: Texas rigs are uninsured and Paraguay rigs are insured with a 90% guarantee [4][5]. For a buyer who wants ownership without operations, pick the insured region or self-insure - and enjoy the rare experience of an operator whose margins you can read before you wire [1][4].

What "legit" does not mean

A real, operating provider can still lose you money: with a contract you own no hardware, revenue follows coin price and difficulty, and most published contracts are priced so the seller comes out ahead. "Legit" means the operator exists and pays what its terms promise - not that the deal is profitable. 13 dated sources back this page; they are listed under sources.
