As inefficent as the S2 is, your electric needs to be FREE for it to be profitable at all - and that's going to be a very small profit for a lot of electric used.

With an S2 it's pretty simple.
Unless you have free or close to free (under 4cents/kWh), it won't be worth it.
Have you thought about shipping prices too?

Hi there,

I'm pretty new to bitcoin mining and I manage to find a "good" price on the antminer s2. I'm curious on if it's still worth it, considering it's humongous power usage I'm having my doubts.

Am I overthinking things perhaps?

Could you guys direct me in the proper direction?

Kind regards,



DJM
