Kinda sorta off topic..unless you paid for this with your mining profits or trading profits with BTC
But...if you use a bit of electric...(say a family of 5 or 6) and you are looking at say 15 years of this (kids) and maybe even better you have land
in at least a hobby farm kinda way.
The way to look at mining imho then is Solar
In other words if (with rebates) someone told you you could go Solar for say a 30k Investment and it would pay for itself in 10 years say.....and
you are looking at the above scenario with kids/electric etc for 15 plus years at the place you were at
well..that would be like saying ..buy BTC equip....and ROI in 10 years and from then on your in profit (over elec use) assuming you are in a state
like Minnesota where they buy back 14c kwh at 12c kwh (I think)
win/win
only other home mining that may work that is 'kinda' w/o mining is attic mining
you take crap out of attic (in my case likely 5k of stuff) and you sell it on eBay and convert such junk to BTC
just saying...both are no really mining and are a way to invest in bitcoin or in solar's case a BTC type of endeavor (toy) to play with
no way would solar make enough to run a mnier..but you could look like it like mining /dorking with equip / and return to roi for those 10 years
stuff to do
Whoa! He gave up his secrets.
those are cool stuffs to invest in. But how much would it cost. Can a simple worker who earns a basic salary can make a capital for this stuffs? Just asking.
