New members: introduce yourselves
Good thread this. running a node changed how I think about the whole stack, mining included. What's your setup?
Counterpoint: renting out my spare S19 paid for its own repairs this quarter.
Undervolting bought me 19% efficiency for a small hashrate haircut, and I'd do it again. What's everyone else seeing?
Same here honestly. pool fees look small until you count payout friction on top. Anyone tried the opposite?
For what it's worth, a 3267W night-tariff window is the closest thing to free money in home mining. What's everyone else seeing?
Genuine question first: a 3182W night-tariff window is the closest thing to free money in home mining.
Cable temperature is the diagnostic nobody checks. Warm connectors are wasted watts. Convince me otherwise.
Genuine question first: XMR on the small rigs, XMR on the big ones — diversification of boredom. Numbers welcome.
Strong disagree with the last reply — the real cost is never the rig, it's the 886W nobody budgets for. Am I missing something obvious?
Hot take incoming: renting out my spare M60 paid for its own repairs this quarter. What's your setup?
For what it's worth, renting hashrate for RVN taught me more in 21 hours than a month of reading. Am I missing something obvious?
