The grind continues.
s19 xp is around $5500 from the right seller
s19 xp is earning 141 x 0.0696 = $9.81
11 cent power $8.80 cost so profit is $1.01 pays off in 5,500 days
10 cent power $8.00 cost so profit is $1.81 pays off in 3,038 days
09 cent power $7.20 cost so profit is $2.61 " " 2,107 days
08 cent power $6.40 cost so profit is $3.41 " " 1,612 days
07 " " $5.60 cost so profit is $4.21 pays off in 1306 days
06 " " $4.80. " " is $5.01 " " 1097 days
05 " " $4.00 " " is $5.81 " " 946 days
04 " " $3.20 cost so profit is 6.61 pays off in 832 days03 " " $2.40 cost so profit is $7.41 pays off in 742 days this is decent
02 " " $1.60 " " $8.21 " " 669 days this is good
8 to 11 cent power is likely to be a disaster
so 4 to 7 cent power may work out
2 or 3 cent power is pretty good
these numbers repeat over time ie we are near bottom for mining.
Now lots of companies are hurting mostly because they purchased gear on loaned money.
All my numbers above assume cash purchase for an s19xp and that it is going into a prebuilt setup at plug n play cost.
So a 4 cent mine that borrowed to pay the units and borrowed to build a mine does not really do
04 " " $3.20 cost so profit is 6.61 pays off in 832 days per machine
The building could be leased and cost 1 dollar a day per unit and in the loans and salaries and maybe they clear 6.61- 1.61 = 5 a day which means 5500/5=1100 to break even on the s19 pro
