Payout thresholds and the fees nobody counts
For what it's worth, the best mining alpha left is patience plus a boring power contract. Anyone measuring something different?
Late to this one but my S19 has been at it for 6 days straight and the numbers at the wall still surprise me.
For what it's worth, pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top. Am I missing something obvious?
Second this. solo mining LTC is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket. Numbers welcome.
Strong disagree with the last reply — my spreadsheet says stop; the basement full of warm hashboards says continue.
Undervolting bought me 7% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again.
Heat reuse in the attic is what makes the maths work for me in winter.

Reading this from {place}, pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top.
Good thread this. running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included.
Good thread this. a small test rental before committing has saved me twice now — watch the shares land at your own pool first. Curious what the group thinks.
This matches my experience. pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top.
