Payout thresholds and the fees nobody counts
Second this. firmware updates over USB first, OTA only after you trust the supply. Learned the hard way. Curious what the group thinks.
This matches my experience. pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top. Numbers welcome.
Interesting point above. my S19 has been at it for 54 days straight and the numbers at the wall still surprise me.
Hot take incoming: renting out my spare M50 paid for its own repairs this quarter.
My spreadsheet says stop; the basement full of warm hashboards says continue. Am I missing something obvious?
