Id ask more of what can I afford to risk, since its based on what you can afford really.
Say you go with the huge performance 10 PHs, question is that can you still continue even if the value drops? lol. As oppose to the other smaller hash performance you can since, its less intial risk and can be made for the loss.
Leverage is just accelerated risk, if its not done right which is the 10 PHs.
yes this is true. if I rent 10 ph for 24 hours at a bargain rate (.0095) say at our current diff of 47b point it at antpool I should make a profit.
If I point 1 ph at antpool for 10 days I should profit (.0095) same bargain rate I should make an identical profit.
That is rate world of 0 variables other then 10 x = 1 x 10
real world the 10 ph rental has almost 0 chance of being (0.0095) as it is too big and will raise the price = a problem 10 x 1
you will also fuck your share up since 10+70 = 80 ph of which you have 10 so your share is ⅛ or .125% x 1 for 1 day
1ph is 1 + 70 = 71 your share is 1/71 x 10 days = 10/71 or 0.140 % so if the mining is to a pool and not solo 1 ph for 10 days is absolutely better then 10 ph for 1 day. = a really big problem for 10 x 1So solo may be =.
But shared pool is not =
so A simple question needs a complex answer. any shared mining 1 for 10 days will be better.
10 for 1 day needs more analysis.
my bolded statement is something big farms have realized thus they hardly add hash with more hash. they swap higher cost power hash for cheaper cost hash. but don't increase their hash rate.
ie 10th of s-3's swapped to 10th of s-5 = 8000 watts vs 5200 watts
In our op's question 10ph is almost certain to be more costly then 1 ph over 10 days
