# Miners & Assets

## Miners

Miners increase your hashrate on the Ethermax network, enabling $MAXX rewards, each defined by three key attributes:

* Hashrate: The computational power that the miner contributes to your operation.
* Energy Usage: The electrical power needed to operate each miner efficiently.
* Cost: The $MAXX cost to acquire a miner for your facility.

Players can buy miners anytime with $MAXX, As long as they have enough power output.&#x20;

## Power Generators

Each player starts with a facility to house miners, which can be improved by upgrading the power generator using $MAXX, with a 24-hour cooldown between upgrades. Each power generator has three attributes:

* **Miner Capacity**: The maximum number of miners this setup can support.
* **Energy Output**: The total electrical power provided by the power generator.
* **Upgrade Cost**: The $MAXX needed for the next power generator.

The total power used by all miners must not exceed the setup’s energy output.&#x20;

## Cosmetics

Cosmetics are decorative miners for customizing your Ethermax facility. They occupy space like regular miners but use no energy and add zero hashpower —purely for flex.

Ideal for personalizing setups, they include decor items and collab specials, boosting community vibes.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ethermax.tech/getting-starter/mining/miners-and-assets.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
