What made you start mining in the first place?
Underrated topic. a 3144W night-tariff window is the closest thing to free money in home mining. Would you do it differently?
My seed backup plan finally moved from paper to steel this month. Sleep improved. Convince me otherwise.
Underrated topic. 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?
Second this. I treat mining income as a slow DCA and the mood swings stopped. Anyone measuring something different?
Good thread this. the noise problem is solved by distance, not gadgets. a shed was the real fix. Am I missing something obvious?
Genuine question first: firmware updates over USB first, OTA only after you trust the supply. Learned the hard way.
