What is your reason for starting mining?
How do you define whether a supplier is legit?
Thanks
It's better to mine bitcoin and to do it you need to have enough or too much money to buy bitcoin mining machines. Because once you start it is a great saving for the future, the only disadvantage is that when the value of bitcoin falls in the market, the cost of electricity increases especially because of the mining machine used in bitcoin. Therefore, during a bear market, it is better to invest in bitcoin in well-known exchanges and play with it in trading, because it is easier to make money during these times. But if you know of legitimate suppliers that you can get bitcoin mining from you can check out this site https://www.globalsources.comAt the current market situation, I think it is better to buy Bitcoin than buying an ASIC and mine Bitcoin. If you buy bitcoin , you save yourself from setting up mining rig, maintenance, and noise created by miner oh, and also save you from the complaint of your neighbor if you are just a wall away from them. You also save yourself from possible early machine break out. There is more pro than cons in buying Bitcoin directly than buying ASICS and mining Bitcoin. If a person is practical, well what you say is correct, that's why there are others who enter this industry because they lack knowledge, they have the mindset to buy Bitcoin mining rigs thinking that they will just wait for profit in bitcoin without thinking much about it. But in today's time, I would really prefer to buy bitcoin because compared to mining it is too much of a hassle unlike buying after it is up to us whether we hold or short term trading.

Looking at the cryptocurrency market today, almost everyone will say the same thing that buying Bitcoin is better than making ASIC and mining. I also think that buying bitcoins would be best at the moment but should not mix trading with ASIC and mine bitcoins separately. As currently Bitcoin mining is not becoming profitable due to electricity bills and dumping of the market, I think even if you are going to trade, you have to take trades for long term where the investment will not get any profit quickly. So I think both the sectors have their pros and cons now I think it depends on the individual which one he chooses. But in this case I don't think it should be arguable about the pros of investing on bitcoin to bitcoin mining, like it outweighs the mining of it. Imagine a situation where you just buy at a certain price then sit back give it some time without having to stress out to see your investment yield profit even if it takes a year or two. Meanwhile apart from the hussle and financial burden one has to bear to make available all equipments needed for mining including electricity bills, have you wondered if there should be a natural disaster taking place like wild fire, flooding , these occurrence is capable of stalling mining operations for a longer period as electricity distribution would drastically be affected and cut off putting all mining activities to a hold whereas some that just invested in bitcoin could be experiencing a bull along the way in that same occurrence. I agree with all your statement that buying bitcoin is better than mining bitcoin. To mine bitcoin one need to pass through a lot of stress and spent a lot of money on electricity and mining equipment. If you use all these funds put together you will ha e a significant amount of bitcoin and you can hodli till thy kingdom come,depends on when you will like to sell off. If you start mining bitcoin, there are possibilities that you will run at loss and one can pack up his mining farm but when your bought bitcoin is in your noncustodial wallet very safe,it is compulsory that you will make good profit from your bitcoin investment portfolio

I first think of the cost of organizing the needed equipments for mining and electricity fees. That's a good amount of money that can buy you admirable units of bitcoin and with the bitcoin halving in focus the worthiness in buying and HODLing becomes so important than mining right now.

Your name says Asic supplier, if this is your side job why are you asking this question then? Every miner starts mining Bitcoin to make profit or to increase their stash of Bitcoin, some are doing it for fun while some are serious miners that dedicate their lives to become a long term Bitcoin miner. Most people prefer playing safe, so they go on official asic builders like Bitmain to order for their miners, and those who are ready to take risks go for used asic miners, remaining focused on China, I've help few people ordered on Aliexpress and I did this base on verified buyers review. Whenever I want to shop online I always look into how many asic a store or supplier has sold in the past years and I also make sure they have loads of successful business reviews from their customers.

THis is my opinion but its worth to buy a bitcoin rather than buying a mining rig, IF you don't have enough money to afford multiple mining rig. But if you still curious about how mining works and watched the fan screaming yeah you can buy one and running them if you think it is worth you can buy it more.
Six years ago I was looking to mine and I wanted it solar powered but by that time I had money and I had a friend who could set up one for me using GPU I just found out that companies are mining it using ASIC mining rings and the cost at that time is not worth it, I ended up buying Bitcoin and true enough it's more profitable than buying Asic I think it's the general sentiment of those who used to mined and give it up. Time is changing and sometimes a change of mind is still worth it.

If a person is practical, well what you say is correct, that's why there are others who enter this industry because they lack knowledge, they have the mindset to buy Bitcoin mining rigs thinking that they will just wait for profit in bitcoin without thinking much about it.
But in today's time, I would really prefer to buy bitcoin because compared to mining it is too much of a hassle unlike buying after it is up to us whether we hold or short term trading.
In early days, it was easy to mine Bitcoin (even people mine bitcoin on laptops) but now a days you need expensive mining devices that consumes too much power. Bitcoin mining is for specialised groups that have the capability to setup large and complex mining rigs. Although everyone is free to join Bitcoin mining, one must calculate how much he can return he will get after setting up his solo mining rig. I never jumped into Bitcoin mining since I know I wont earn much from it.

You know people do easily believe on whatever information that they would find online specially on known Coingecko which we know that it is popular.Therefore, whatever information that they would really be publishing then expect that people would really be just easily believing. Even myself do check out that image and there are countries which does have that high standard of living and something that expensive but ending up on having 7k-19k cost of mining 1 Bitcoin. Somewhat there's no way to confirm this though because KWh do really changed up everytime and this is why every information would really be ending up on not being precise.

Guys guys at the bottom of the images the footnotes say "methodology: Household electricity cost calculated using height Bitcoin mining models and globalpetrolprices.com data from December 2022" Further reading could go in here https://www.coingecko.com/research/publications/bitcoin-mining-costTho is just Mining speculation thread right so basically people should read this and not go all and like you said @Oilacris the change of KwH of electricity should be considered before make any investment on mining

Sources are used either to prove something or to avoid plagiarism copy-right, they don't mean anything when the content is wrong, and you can't write some straight-out bullshit and say oh it's not my words I copied it from a very unreliable source like globalpetrolprices, using these sources are just "trust me bro" kind of sources, so nothing this changes the fact that whoever wrote that article is just stupid at best.

well in the USA we mine as a collective country about ½ of all the hash in the world.
that would be 200 eh.
most mines in the usa are huge. does anyone seriously think mines were spending 40k plus for 20 k coins in dec of 2022.
Basically the article is and was and will continue be fucking garbage.

Yeah, and? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) It doesn't change the fact that it's stupid just because it has a disclaimer they used data that is stupid when used so?! Globalpetrolprices takes its data from the IEA https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.php?t=table_5_06_aso yeah, the data is good, that's how it is the USA has a 16c/kwh price. So what? Do you honestly think 30% of the hashrate that Foundry alone boasts about is running at 16 cents? When you find a nice pic online do you immediately take that conclusion for granted just because it states some source on Wikipedia as the basis or treat as if it's some holy grail of knowledge just because it was posted on a a website? This is why people are angry here, because if we stop posting this stupid shit and get them views then they would also stop creating this stupid thing in the first place!

This is why people are angry here, because if we stop posting this stupid shit and get them views then they would also stop creating this stupid thing in the first place! Exactly this. My home winter electric is 14 cents and the heat allows me to turn my furnace off for the winter. So I pay around 10 cents a kwatt from Oct 1 to May 1 I can burn 10 kwatts an hour in my home setup. And it needs to be very cold 🥶 to burn that much in the winter as The house will get too hot. I burn under 5 kwatts in the winter the last winter cause the profit were not there. Now my main mine is under 5cents a kwatt I have access to a max of 300 kwatts an hour. At five cent we turn profit. and we are burn about 200kwatts an hour an adding gear. Larger mines in texas are at 2 cents not 16 cents. They still grow.

What is your reason for starting mining?
The reason to start mining rather than just buying bitcoins should be because you have considered your interest to be interested in mining and also other factors that will make mining profitable to know if it is something you can do. If you consider factors like cheap affordable electricity, security etc and see that it's a check for all those factors, then you can start mining. How do you define whether a supplier is legit?
Do not buy from a new supplier on the market, buy from suppliers who have been in the business and were recommended.

If you consider factors like cheap affordable electricity, security etc and see that it's a check for all those factors, then you can start mining.
In early days of Bitcoin, it was possible to mine even on desktop computers but not anymore. The first thing you must consider before diving into mining is to calculate whether its profitable to do that? Electricity is the most important concern since the mining rigs eats too much electricity, the hardware for mining bitcoin is super expensive, many countries have legislation regarding Bitcoin mining. There are many questions one need to answer before starting Bitcoin mining.

I’ve not had to put these two in contrast before: mining with respect to buying Bitcoin. They are indeed the same package of for an investment but one with very different module of operation and benefits.
While one (mining) might require of you certain expenses and could got you in the authorities nest, taxes and all included, The other is completely some based on financial buoyancy at the time and that’s about it.
The point which I get here though simply started is, A teach how to fish rather than just been handed a fish or buying the fish.
Mining, getting a rig and having to start a farm is considered an expensive and not easy to maintain adventure which so many might not be able to afford, given the sophisticated nature of it. While, having to buy Bitcoin can come by a strategy that allows for gradual accumulation (DCA).
Besides, mining devices gets outdated over time with increased sophistication. This challenges how profitable you might have been in the times your device was more applicable.
Having to run a mine would have made a lot of sense but, it’s only normal that you go with one that guys you that flexibility to invest with what you’ve got and wouldn’t require of you lots or any maintenance while being very private.
