For what it's worth, multisig with a written recovery plan beats any single clever hiding spot. Numbers welcome.
My seed backup plan finally moved from paper to steel this month. Sleep improved.
I treat mining income as a slow DCA and the mood swings stopped.
Hot take incoming: running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included.
This matches my experience. renting hashrate for ALPH taught me more in 8 hours than a month of reading.
Counterpoint: the energy argument lands better with a greenhouse tour than a statistic. Would you do it differently?
Same here honestly. undervolting bought me 14% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again. Numbers welcome.
Late to this one but I treat mining income as a slow DCA and the mood swings stopped.
Been thinking about this all week. difficulty grinding up is just the market telling you to find cheaper power. What's everyone else seeing?
Underrated topic. the noise problem is solved by distance, not gadgets. a shed was the real fix.
