In the US, this lack of savings also leads to more homelessness. We might call ourselves the wealthiest nation, but that wealth isn’t trickling down. Lots of people are just being left behind.

The bear market won’t last forever. Maybe just buy some bitcoin and hold it instead of miners. If you're in the EU, there could be future restrictions on mining. Just look what they’re saying.

Last year, they actually had a massive flow of power from Russia to Kazakhstan that exceeded limits. It was like 1.5 GW a day, and Russia even ramped up supplies later. Inter RAO was focused on selling to China before,…

Good call, man. No cheap power means mining is a bust. The S19 XP is a solid machine, hard to beat it right now. If BTC were back at 15k, I'd say sell the miner and grab some Bitcoin for the long haul.

Yeah, Braiins (Slushpool) did launch it, but it was just a gimmick. Not like we’ll be using them as real miners.

A couple years back, I picked up used ASICs just for kicks. If your electricity is cheap or free, used is definitely the way to go.

Right? Solo mining is just luck-based. With the total hashrate being so high, it’s even harder to be successful.

Also, it’d be great if you could share some details on how much natural gas is consumed per power generated, like in m³/Mw or Kw. It’d help everyone see how practical this really is.

But you didn’t say what coins you’re into. Some might not even relate to mining. Don’t rush into cloud mining; it’s usually not what it seems.

For sure, no need for a full node if you’re solo mining in a pool. You can just set up a miner easily on sites like solo.ckpool.org.

Exactly, those 15-amp wall sockets can't keep up with newer rigs. Mine runs full throttle 24/7, it’s only a matter of time before they burn out.

Exactly! They need to focus on KOLs and genuine content to reach broader audiences.

If you got your own gear, just go for a third-party provider that fits your budget. But if you’re leaning towards cloud mining, tread carefully. Just my two cents.

If you look at the S19JPro+ page, there's an RJ45 Ethernet connector for networking. But yeah, 25A is just the consumption from the mains.

Honestly, the best combo is probably a UPS that can hold out till your generator kicks in. If it can handle a 2-3 kW load for those 5 seconds, you should be golden unless you’re running a full-blown farm, of course.

That's a smart use of immersion cooling! No noise, no dust. Plus, it’s reliable. You’re not just mining, but also supporting the network while heating your space. It’s a win-win situation.

If electricity is free, then why not use a better ASIC? Sure, you could solo mine with old hardware, but a new ASIC is the way to go. You’d make more from that.

It seems like a bad time to invest through mining hosting. Use that cash to buy a few miners and find a data center instead. Cloud mining is mostly a money pit.

Check out the GekkoScience USB miner. They have options like a 90 Gh/s stick for about $100. Be cautious though, their website has some sketchy reviews.

The flashing fault light means there’s something wrong with board 3 or the power supply. Check your data cables too. If you can, try a different power supply or just run it with one or two boards to narrow it down.
