Suppliers: your contract must-haves
Reading this from {place}, undervolting bought me 21% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again. What's everyone else seeing?
Second this. heat reuse in the garage is what makes the maths work for me in winter.
Second this. heat reuse in the basement is what makes the maths work for me in winter. What's your setup?
Genuine question first: undervolting bought me 5% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again. What's your setup?
Firmware updates over USB first, OTA only after you trust the supply. Learned the hard way. Anyone measuring something different?
Good thread this. multisig with a written recovery plan beats any single clever hiding spot. What's your setup?
Same here honestly. cable temperature is the diagnostic nobody checks. Warm connectors are wasted watts. Anyone tried the opposite?
Cable temperature is the diagnostic nobody checks. Warm connectors are wasted watts.
Counterpoint: ETC on the small rigs, ETC on the big ones — diversification of boredom. Numbers welcome.
The noise problem is solved by distance, not gadgets. my flat was the real fix. Convince me otherwise.
I killed a hashboard learning hotair rework and consider it tuition.
Genuine question first: running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included.
Underrated topic. second-hand old S9 prices near me make repair skills worth more than new hardware.
This matches my experience. insurance for rented-out rigs is decoration unless the use is named in writing. Would you do it differently?
Second this. solo mining ALPH is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket. Curious what the group thinks.
