Title: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh? Post by: dead__master on December 28, 2016, 11:07:08 PM Hi
Im thinking about buying one (or if it would be worth 2) AntMiner S9. I live in a City where the average price per kWh is 0.16$ and what I heard is, that that is pretty high.. also I heard that a problem of the S9 is, that it breaks quickly. So my question is, would it even be worth to get one or two S9 with a power cost of 0.16$ kWh? Or is this not profitable/ too risky? ??? With kind regards Dead__Master Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh? Post by: leowonderful on December 28, 2016, 11:30:29 PM Nope. There is no way and even if there was ROI would be insanely long. At that electrical price you're better off not even thinking about mining anything. Even the best GPU coin might only net you a few cents in profit in the long term.

In other words, the network difficulty will rise and your 0.16$/kWh won't be good enough. It won't take long, a few months at most. Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh?

With kind regards Dead__Master My guess is you,will earn .5 to .7 coins over the next 240 days you wil then need to sell the machine for 1 coin That means 1.7 coin max.

We can also source cheaper PSUs to help keep costs down.

I don't think it's worth it... If the difficulty rises 2% every cycle, you will never ROI. Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh?

I live in a City where the average price per kWh is 0.16$ You will almost definitely never earn back the cost of the S9 at THAT high of an electric cost. Even 8 cent per KWH is iffy on achieving ROI on the S9. Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh?

I don't think it's worth it... Yes it looks like it, the price of electricity is 16 cents I think is very expensive, fortunately price bitcoin is already $1.000, although the price of the bitcoin $1.000 ideally to get 6 months RoI the electric price must under 10 cents.Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh?

It'll be marginally profitable and it does support multiple algorithms but it will take a long time for you to make anything decent from the miner. If you want the most bang from your buck from Baikal if you plan on getting one, get the Giant. Everything else from them is generally not worth it; the machines they make are quiet though.Title: Re: Is it worth to mine with AntMiner S9 with 0.16$/kWh?

And is highly profitable now. profitability is reducing there, and with the 40w mini version, you are not looking at a good profit anyway, they produce something like $1 per day the good thing is until the new miner for those algo come ou, you should be relatively safe, in oen year those things will be obsolete without doubt, aside form this the profit is already declining... |
