Well if you pay .02 per kwh and no tax but "won't buy those ASIC", then you're a fool. But go ahead and make your ideological statement. Brilliant.
first thing first you should invest some time in learning how to quote your b.s instead of calling people names, or bring their mothers into an asic miner discussion.
yes i pay LESS than 2 cents per kwh and I am not going to buy those S15s, how is that your problem ?
then you talk about " profitability" , you must be a newbie in this field, you take the hashrate of your miner, paste it on whattomine and then say waw this is the greatest investment i will ever make, ROI in 6 months !! and 200$ monthly ! i am going to ALL IN.
you realize 3-4 months ago, antminer A3 used to net 8-9$ daily and now it is a door stopper ? antminer S9 did well above 8$ a few months ago and now it hardly makes 2$.
so how the fudge do you go about calculating "profitability" in mining business ? just because I have very cheap power rate does not mean i should invest in Asics when i already have bunch of them. most of which have got ROI "thanks to my cheap electricity" but i do not put all eggs in one basket. mining is no longer an easy business that a newbie like yourself would invest 10k and get 50k same month next year. things have changed , you now have to treat mining as a real business, things are only getting more difficult for the average folks. 2017 is gone and it's never coming back. you need to wake up and smell the coffee.
Instead of buying this Bitmain shit, just buy and HODL the USD equivalent in BTC.
You'll thank me in two years.
Trust me.
Dude some people will never learn, come back in 4-5 months when you see everyone complaining about their S15 missing hashboards , and how bitmain dropped the price over 70% , and how difficulty is increasing regardless of btc price. the same people cursing bitmain for selling L3 for 50 bucks when they they paid 2500$ for it and never ROIed will be doing the same thing about bitmain S15. you just gotta wait and see
