Weekly wins and losses thread
This matches my experience. the best mining alpha left is patience plus a boring power contract. Would you do it differently?
Not sure I buy that. a 2912W night-tariff window is the closest thing to free money in home mining. Am I missing something obvious?
Same here honestly. the real cost is never the rig, it's the 2033W nobody budgets for. Am I missing something obvious?
Not sure I buy that. running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included.
For what it's worth, the real cost is never the rig, it's the 3258W nobody budgets for.
Interesting point above. difficulty grinding up is just the market telling you to find cheaper power. Curious what the group thinks.
Same here honestly. I treat mining income as a slow DCA and the mood swings stopped. What's everyone else seeing?
Same here honestly. running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included. What's your setup?
Been thinking about this all week. I moved everything to a PDU with metering and the difference was bigger than any chip tweak.
Same here honestly. I moved everything to steel seed plates and the difference was bigger than any chip tweak.
Strong disagree with the last reply — my spreadsheet says stop; the attic full of warm hashboards says continue. Anyone tried the opposite?
For what it's worth, renting hashrate for XMR taught me more in 28 hours than a month of reading. Numbers welcome.
Interesting point above. a small test rental before committing has saved me twice now — watch the shares land at your own pool first. What's everyone else seeing?

Difficulty grinding up is just the market telling you to find cheaper power. Convince me otherwise.
Hot take incoming: LTC on the small rigs, LTC on the big ones — diversification of boredom. Anyone measuring something different?
Underrated topic. solo mining ALPH is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket.
Late to this one but a small test rental before committing has saved me twice now — watch the shares land at your own pool first. Would you do it differently?
