Title: Flat Rate mining Post by: Kris on August 12, 2013, 07:33:54 AM So I had this idea. Would it be possible to rent an apartment provided this apartment have free electricity usage, and place miners all over it...
This would effectively give a flat rate to pay each month for mining bitcoin. Any suggestions ? Title: Re: Flat Rate mining Post by: empoweoqwj on August 12, 2013, 07:49:49 AM Were you on crack when u had this idea?

The electric bill plus an inspection of your unit will quickly provide all the evidence the landlord needs to sue your ass (and/or confiscate your entire security deposit) for breach of the lease contract. Title: Re: Flat Rate mining Post by: Kris on August 14, 2013, 12:30:50 PM I admit, probably not the best idea in the world, hence the suggestion part.
Just came to me after working 18 hours straight. :D Title: Re: Flat Rate mining Post by: Danielitow on August 14, 2013, 01:01:54 PM Probably when the electricity bill is about 1000$/month you'll get the police knocking on the door because they think you're growing weed...
Title: Re: Flat Rate mining Post by: abdullahadam on August 19, 2013, 03:16:29 AM Some apartment and condo buildings here in Toronto area still offer "free" electricity. There is no actual bill because the total hydro bill is divided over all owners of the building as part of the maintenance fee (in the case of a condo), or with an apartment its just part of your rent and they dont have actual meters on each unit. However this is dissapearing rapidly as more buildings convert to a per-unit actual hydro bill

Most miners are mining as individuals not as "businesses".
