Hi folks,

What are your true mining return vs expected return calculated by sites like CryptoCompare?

Their return numbers are very good right now due to recent rise in ETH prices, but how much should I take off the calculated numbers? Are they calcualted based on best-case scenerios?

Thanks in advance...

Take around 10% off from the calculators at the minimum.
As there are so many factors in play, the numbers of profit can change anytime.

Some sites purposely increase their estimates for more traffic. I can't tell for sure which ones do, but when using calculators do not use any values past one month. After that, estimation is pretty much useless as any small variable can greatly affect your mining return. I stick by this rule and it works fine for me.
