Hey everyone, I'm starting my own mining operation. Planning to kick things off with a few Antminers (not the S19s) and ramping up to around 500 units in a few months, then thousands in a year or two. I could really use some help with setting up the network hardware for a solid infrastructure. Anyone here experienced in building a mining data center?

Count me in! I’ve got a team and we're collaborating with the second biggest power supplier in Russia. Just launched a 5MW facility and looking to expand to 50MW this year, eventually hitting 2GW in the next five years. We can assist with construction, power, and networking. By the way, we have a rep in the US who can oversee things on-site. Just shot you a DM.

How many MW are you planning? I read something good about this on minerdude's site. I’ve got some S19s available and more on the way. They’re not exactly mine, but I can get them. I also accept escrow.

Are you still mining actively? Just curious.

Yeah, still going strong. Not many places have cheap electricity and decent weather for mining, so it's still a hot market.

I can help too! We have mobile mine boxes that can each fit 220 S19 Pro units. They've got integrated cooling and electrical setups. Just connect to power and you're good to go. We’ve got users in the US already, feel free to check it out.

I’m your guy! Been a data center engineer for almost 20 years. Power here in Oklahoma is just 4.3 cents per kWh, and I know ways to get even cheaper rates. There are hydro plants nearby, plus a PPA for wind energy. I was gonna do this myself but everything got super pricey overnight. Still think it’d be fun to head this up, especially with the new hydro-cooled Bitmains.

I can assist! DM me, I'm setting up a new warehouse myself this spring.

Hey, We’re experienced miners and we're developing software that could help you out. We can even offer hosting for retail miners if that's something you're interested in. We know some locations that might host you without needing you to invest in infrastructure.

Are you looking to provide hosting for retail customers, or just focusing on your own mining?
