Hi I'm Mohsen from Iran, I found mining quite interesting and profitable and I have some doubt about it then I join this forum and I want to ask some question before investing. I did mining with my personal computer with several pools and I noticed that I can invest in antminer s4 and that is quite interesting when I calculated the profit here : https://alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculatorSo my research says if I invest any amount in mining devices, I can return my investment in just 4 months. Am I calculating right? Is it that accurate? I'm Planning to invest on antminer s4, Is there any better option, because right now bitmaintech guys selling 16 units for $14K and I can get 32TH/s with those. also I'm in Iran andd the electricity price is so cheap here, I can register a production company to cut half my electricity price even. But I dont know if they ship units to Iran and the weight is so high its about 250KG. So what do you think about my plan? Thank you

The difficult will probably increase destroying your chance at ROI. That said.. this is the first time in 22 months the difficult has gone down soo... who knows.. We might see a massive abandoning of bitcoin and a return to $50-100 area... This would decimate the mining network shutting down most industrial sized miners leaving only hobby miners like me.. Who knows if I would be mining in the red or black at that point. I will mine until I die ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .

Thank you Everyone would advice not to get into mining at this stage, specially when the halving is expetd to happen in an year or 2, which is definitely not be profitable for minin.g

Mining might be profitable as of now. Not certain about an year later , when the difficulty increases.
Eventhough difficulty is decreasing, mining same btc just got extended by one full day. But the good news is: when mining becomes harder, no more bitcoins to dump, price of bitcoin will skyrocket

When you say cheap how much is cheap? Electricity price is a huge factor.
With 16 units you will also need some cooling. That is a decent amount of heat. Make sure to factor electrician and his services and parts, and also cooling and a constant cooling bill.

Yes its very profitable. In fact i'm picking up a Bentley Continental GT this coming Monday all from btc mining profit.
You should buy all the gears that you can, guarantee you next year you will be buying Maserati.

I will expect the customs and related fees will kill you off.
I would've advised you to buy Bitcoins instead, but the same problem remains - getting your money out and into the exchanges. I guess you can try localbitcoins if such a thing indeed exists in Iran.

no it isn't unless you are a big farm with a electricity contract, or you have already made roi, or any of those combinations

Thank you Don't use that mining calculator, it's shit, use this one instead: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/calculatorBest option for mining right now is the Antminer S5 https://www.bitmaintech.com/productDetail.htm?pid=00020141223145144203LHv1Ae820632or the Spondoolies-Tech SP20 http://www.spondoolies-tech.com/products/holiday-special-sp20-jackson-shipping-from-stockYou can't go wrong with either. You won't necessarily ROI, but at least you're picking the right miners.

They probably would. Mo$hen probably would just want to be behind a bunch of laminated Lexan when he opens the box. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I would think 12 months to get your money back is your BEST case scenario. With the cost of electricity, you will be using more than 2/3 of your mining proceeds just to pay electric.

He stated that he has very cheap electric, even though we don't know what that price is , electric may not be a problem for him.
