Title: NiceHash profit. Post by: Monberg75 on November 11, 2016, 06:12:55 PM Hi.
Im thinking about getting into bitcoin mining. I would like to use Nicehash, and my question is what the payrate is at nicehash. How much power MHs GHs PHs do i need to get before it pays off. Hope someone can give me some insight, on the payrate/hashingrate The reason is, that electricity in Denmark is pretty expencieve (0,34USD/KWh) and before i begin to buy hardware, i need to know if i can earn money on it.

At that rate even the S9 would be hard to turn a profit giving the power consumption and the cost of the machine.

Post by: gt_addict on November 11, 2016, 06:45:56 PM Depends on the hashrate of the miner you have/will have. Anything less than 1Th is pretty pointless. Kano.is is the most well recommended but if you want bigger payouts at a slower rate then bitminter.com is a good pool too.

that said if you want to mine for heat find an older antminer s-3 as it is pretty quiet. Set it at a low clock then point that antminer s-3 at http://solo.ckpool.org/ you either get nothing (most likely) or you hit a block (very unlikely). but you will burn around 300 watts and have a space heater that does 300 watts. 300 watts = 7.2 kwatts a day which is 216 kwatts a month. that is 73.44 usd per month lost other then you get some heat. but you do have a shot at every block as long as you run it. |
