GPU retirement homes — where did your cards end up?

Second this. the best mining alpha left is patience plus a boring power contract.
silent-nonce-260 · 28/09/26 02:50 UTC
Difficulty grinding up is just the market telling you to find cheaper power. Convince me otherwise.
atomic-block-563 · 28/09/26 03:00 UTC
This matches my experience. insurance for rented-out rigs is decoration unless the use is named in writing. What's everyone else seeing?
brave-rig-256 · 28/09/26 03:30 UTC
This matches my experience. a 1356W night-tariff window is the closest thing to free money in home mining. Anyone measuring something different?
nova-cipher-479 · 28/09/26 03:40 UTC
Strong disagree with the last reply — renting hashrate for RVN taught me more in 18 hours than a month of reading. Convince me otherwise.

Not sure I buy that. I killed a hashboard learning hotair rework and consider it tuition. Would you do it differently?
turbo-cipher-977 · 28/09/26 05:10 UTC
For what it's worth, I keep one flexible rig warm purely for new PoW launches. Preparation beats hashrate.
night-kernel-772 · 28/09/26 05:20 UTC
Counterpoint: pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top. Anyone tried the opposite?
brave-node-304 · 28/09/26 05:20 UTC
Interesting point above. heat reuse in the workshop is what makes the maths work for me in winter. Anyone measuring something different?

Hot take incoming: second-hand M60 prices near me make repair skills worth more than new hardware. What's your setup?
rapid-relay-675 · 28/09/26 07:30 UTC
Been thinking about this all week. my seed backup plan finally moved from paper to steel this month. Sleep improved. Anyone tried the opposite?

Reading this from {place}, LTC on the small rigs, LTC on the big ones — diversification of boredom. Anyone tried the opposite?

Late to this one but firmware updates over USB first, OTA only after you trust the supply. Learned the hard way.
lucky-halving-589 · 28/09/26 08:00 UTC
Not sure I buy that. renting out my spare M60 paid for its own repairs this quarter.

Underrated topic. undervolting bought me 3% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again. Would you do it differently?

Cable temperature is the diagnostic nobody checks. Warm connectors are wasted watts.

Solo mining BTC is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket.
