I mine. My electricity cost .07/kWh for the first 250 kilowatt hours. After that it's .02/kWh for the rest of the month.

I haven't sold the first coin I've mined in months. Discuss. How might my actions effect the discussion of this thread?

Please tell me you meant it goes to .20/kWh.  I've never heard of anywhere in the US where electricity gets CHEAPER after the baseline right.

Gotta love the Southeast! Where the football dominates and the cheap electricity gets cheaper when you use more...in the winter at least.
