Title: Medium scale mining operation Post by: kshea1241 on October 10, 2017, 01:07:59 PM Hi Guys,
I am considering starting up a medium scale mining operation (looking to invest 100k). I do not have the technical expertise and time to set-up everything myself and would ideally contract a company or individual to do so. The only reason why i am considering this is because I have access to free electricity (don't ask, and its ultimately unlimited until we reach 500k machines, at that point id assume wed pay 1c per kWh). This would be a USA northeast operation my question to you guys... does this sound like a reasonable venture? We have some of the advantages some of the large miners have: -subsidized electricity -high net worth investors -scalability We are looking to start with ETH and BTC, then look towards some of the smaller coins Also, what would be the ideal setup for a rig like this?

you need a few things a building that can extract or exhaust heat. I would tell you to avoid eth go for zcash and btc + bcc I would build nvidia rigs with the 1070 gpu I would buy both s-9 and avalon 741 I would source psus from sidehack here on this site. never never never buy psu's from bitmain or canaan.io/avalon simple reason is that psu's are easy to source right here in the USA. I would use awesomeminer to check the asic gear I would use smos to check the gpus. Buysolar and I have a solar array I could possibly set your place up. You also need good reliable internet. I am in New Jersey what state are you in? |
