Here in Iceland, we are lucky enough to have access to 0.04USD/kwh power. I could charge people 0.06USD/kwh (in BTC) for heating up my house. That amounts to about $26/month per Jupiter. Cooling is not much of a problem here.

I'm wondering, is there a lot of demand for ASIC server hosting?

Shouldn't you pay us?

He's hosting your miner, you get all the profits of the miner, why'd he pay you?

For the free heat

Free? He has to pay the power bill.

secure hosting is a growing area for the crypto market. you would have to offer some kind of support and guarantee.

mining equipment is not cheap and i am not sure how many people would be that trusting without some kind of contract and insurance.

i do know a few different startups are looking at doing this, but on a much larger scale.

how ever ... great idea and good luck

Iceland has one of the best climate for server hosting but some providers there are costly.
