Put in the data which would be 1350 watts, 24 hours of use per day and the price you pay per kilowatt and press calculate.  Take the number that will show that you will have to pay per day for the electricity and minus out what you miner will make, which is about $2.3 daily.

And that’s how you will see how much your miner will make you on a daily basis, then times that 30 and you’ll get your monthly income.  Or the price that you will have to pay out of your pocket for your 1 S9i brining you the BTC.  Grin

well, to be honest with $0.1 tariff S9 works negative profit and you need to pay for it from your pocket. Only new miners with 7nm chips will work with profit on your tariff. if you believe in bitcoin, do not mine, just buy bitcoins and wait.

Cool man,  the electric company made me buy and put 2x600 amp, one next to the transformer and one inside the building, as well as one 200 amp fuse.  The wire cables that I got running to the 600amps is 350mcm which is as thick as 4 fingers put together, that wire was hella expesive!  I don’t remember the exact price but it was around 3-4K just to run it from the transformer to the inside of the farm.  It was a lot longer to runit to the main line outside.  Pretty much I’ve spent a fortune to install all of it!  Not to mention the price of the transformer.  Lips sealed

It was my plan to build a 60x100 building and fill it with miners but right now, that is not cost effective and with the electric company giving me so much crap, I am starting to lose my enthusiasm for it.
I know nothing about mining, I have a friend who is quite familiar though. How much would I need to invest to have a decent miner? Tired of buying btc. And how much electricity a month does it cost? I am trying to get a wallet back up over .01 or so?
Must I have the most advance video cards to pool mine? I just do not have much to invest. I live off $800 a month?



I’ll give you a quick look on the Mining situation.  If you live on $800 a month, all you can afford is one Antminer S9i which is little better then just the S9, consumes little less of electricity. 

With this miner you will make approximately 0.0005910 btc per day, or around $2.3 dollars.

Look at your last electric bill and try to find how many cents you pay per kilowatt,  for example in Texas it is around $0.10 at a regular house.

Go to this site:

And that’s how you will see how much your miner will make you on a daily basis, then times that 30 and you’ll get your monthly income.  Or the price that you will have to pay out of your pocket for your 1 S9i brining you the BTC.  Grin

I agree, the current situation would make anyone loose enthusiasm for it, not to mention the 27% import tax they got on the miners coming into the U.S now, which makes you want to quit even more if you don’t have the miners on hand already. 

In my case I’ve finished installing everything and the miners are just sitting here so I have to try to see what happens, after all the work has been done. 

I keep hoping to see Japan come out with ASIC's so can avoid the import tax, though even with it - Bitmain S9's are super cheap, especially when having a shit ton of coupons that are just expiring left and right lol

They are super cheap indeed,  i paid almost 60k just for 22 miners sometime in April so yeah even with that tax the miners are hell of a lot cheaper these days!  And yes the coupons just keep coming in, afte the $55 ones have expired I got another email the other day for some more.

They have plenty of hardware to get rid of but don’t have many orders  these days I’m sure because of the current situation, so they try to spice it up with some coupons.

They were going to raise the tariff to 25% on ALL goods from China, that's what was postponed I believe.

if i recall correct, its a percentage of 27% right?
Why not buy from some local companies there and have them change the initial purchase price? Saves a lot of taxes...  Cool
Also in other news, they said there was just a US-China trade war truce for 90 days that started on 12/1. Not sure how much of a nightmare that's gonna be for companies like Blokforge, but it seems like those tariffs shouldn't be applicable if purchased ≥ 12/1/18 & < 3/1/19... We shall see how they handle this, I suppose.

The 27% on the miners have been aplicable since like July 8th I think,  and I even heard that some people recieved a bill from UPS, even on the packages that they got before that date and already payed the previous duties on the miners (crazy,).   Actually I received one too not too long ago for the miners that I got like in April and was already charged the duties by the UPS upon he delivered!

I watched the G20 news the other day and they said that Trump put a hold on the trade war with China and that for now they aren’t going to double the import tax from China. Which from what it looks they were going to do.

 So the 27% is just a little taste, they haven’t really raised the tax to what they wanted to on thousands of products that are imported from China.  Shopping in Wall Mart won’t be a favorite thing for low income people anymore if this sh... keeps on going in that direction!   Cheesy.

Since all of the taxes will be passed on to the end buyers!

4 s9's 2 821's

isnt it a option to pull a extention wire with enough capacity from your house connection to the other location temporarily?

I dont think I can pull 400 amps with an extension cord lol



Well, if its 400 amps divided over 3 phase it isnt too bad. 220 volts i presume (single phase voltage)
I dont know the actual lenth you have to overcome, but i've done crazyer things like that.....

I've pulled an (temporarily) extention cord for 3x450 amps over 600 meters (approx. 1800 feet) for a huge chiller of a company i worked for. That was a nice challenge.. Smiley

















(rifle. I know you havn't had any education, but i'm a certified electrotechnical engineer... I couldn't expect a decent answer from a guy like you other than b.s.)

Nah, you're certified alright.

Must I have the most advance video cards to pool mine? I just do not have much to invest. I live off $800 a month?


ASICs only ... see the Help pages on the web site

I believe it is a 27% tariff of the total - I wouldnt know for sure as I have not bought any since - I would buy locally if they were not asking for twice the price and if they were new not used, had a warranty, and were actually trustworthy sellers.

I have spent over 10k on purchases where the seller never shipped what they were selling... I now only buy from manufacturers

Damn!  More than half of a kilometer!  That extension must have costed more than the chiller itself?  Cheesy

yea - I am a bit pissed about it and yea, if I run a temp line over to the miners - they will see my main residential service increase as they did on the secondary. My solar panels can run maybe a couple of miners during sunlight :/ Makes me really wish I had a battery installed on the system.
