Title: Cryptocurrency mining in Latvia
Post by: powerminingfarm on July 13, 2018, 03:39:12 PM
We are based in Rīga, Latvija, however, our mining equipment lies in an undisclosed location  ;)
Nonetheless, we wanted to share some information about our mining containers (aka Mobile Mining Units) that we are proud to say we built ourselves.

Here are some pictures of our newest container:

Some use cases:
One MMU can contain up to 160 S9i 14TH/s Antminers, with the total power consumption of 232.2kw and Total hashrate of 2.24 PH/s for mining Bitcoin
OR 160 Z9 mini Antminers, with the total power consumption of 48kw and Total hashrate of 1600k Sol/s
OR 160 L3++ Antminers, with the total power consumption of 165.8kw and Total hashrate of 92.8 GH/s in the case of Litecoin
Generally, we can support the following ASIC miners: Bitmain Antminer S9, S9i, L3+, Z9 mini, X3, T9+, A3; Canaan Avalon 841; Halong Mining Dragonmint T1 and others.


About the container itself:
There is an electricity distribution box (380/400V 3 phase input with 630A S1 main switch, 80 16A fuses);
Electricity outlet distribution (80x2 230V Schuko type outlets);
Shelving system (8 rows of shelves);
Base model air filters (G4 type).
Cooling solution: direct cold air inlet, hot air outlet (conventional cooling using ASIC miner fans.)

Size: regular 20ft DC shipping container.

Challenges - Obviously, the biggest challenge, as for most of the miners is finding the most cost-minimizing electricity solution
Also, some of the miners might stop working, but that can be dealt with rather quickly thanks to our monitoring system

Asic mining farm?
how much it costs incurred as capital?
And how long your farm to take ROI?

Currently we are providing mining hosting service in our containers - so ROI calculation in this case depends on the terms you give to your hosting clients ;)

The price for the MMU itself starts from 20k EUR + options.
The ROI when you would pack the container with miners yourself would greatly variate.
For example - if one would place 160 L3+ and would have 0.15$ electricity price - the mining process would actually provide huge losses to the miner.
However, if packed with S9s / Avalon 841s / Z9 with cheap (>0.05$) electricity - the financial situation looks way better.

Just took some new pictures from one of the hosting containers:

Right side - ASIC-184 (for <184 ASICs)
Left side - PM160 (for <160 ASICs)

ASIC-184 MMU improvements over PM160:
  • Increased cooling area
  • Improved miner placement
