@BrandonCoin1@100AcresRanch I made it back to Chapel Hill, NC for rest of the year from the oilfield lol. Have a single hashbox running out there off solar in Louisiana/Texas though mining at higher hashrate while I’m gone
@100AcresRanch Vnish autotuning is still a better performer I’d be happy to work with you and the devs to make it compatible with a direct dc mode! I forget if your on telegram but I might reach out to you later to discuss it would be cool to implement
@denverbitcoin@WilsonMining There’s a lot of gas up there, but I’m mining mostly on the other end of the country off gas so the harsh weather difference in North Dakota come wintertime will be killer 🤣
I’m open to the cold parts of the USA though, cheap energy is cheap energy. Bitcoin doesn’t give af🤣
@AndartisCrypto@BitsBeTrippin I've compared BOS, Vnish, LuxOS and ePic. Currently Vnish has the lead including in latest versions. And ePic and Vnish are the only that include an option for a one time purchase followed by no perpetual dev fee (the latter is lesser known as an option but it does exist)
@bitcoingardener Dang, I thought these were ready to buy and ship out but April delivery is too late 😭 I might have to try and print one myself to make some heaters while it’s still cold out here
@Schnitzel What’s your details on the voltage and frequency values this tune settled on. Is it under 12.78V for the hashboards? Can you share screenshots of those details too since I’m comparing to the 20J we hit with Vnish at 100TH on a 115T model
@DSBatten Yes. Or some cases even just being vented. Wild out much is still out there, even if one had a fleet of 10,000 generators you’d eventually need more 🤣
@rolfversluis@rolfversluis Interesting, that may have worked outside the city limits. Btw you have an email? I had more questions but not sure how to dm you, hmu at [email protected] 🙏
@rolfversluis So in your other example for how much 2.1mW could run in S19, you can run FAR more then 600 tuned units. 850 to be exact, and using under 1.65mW total
@rolfversluis Second, it can be a mistake to not keep up with the latest developments of various firmware updates. It’s now possible to take a 90T 3000W S19 and tune it to 78T 1950W (which btw is better efficiency then a new M50S)
@rolfversluis 4. Not comparing the risk of owning a mining operation and acquiring hardware one could likely run for several years most of the time at a profit, to gambling on buying $600k of BTC at spot price and solely relying on the price appreciation as the sole way to earn a profit
@rolfversluis So to summarize, this post imo originates from:
1. A slightly higher then competitive power price
2. A short time horizon/perspective on hardware ownership future possible income
3. Lack of keeping up on the most recent developments in tuning and enormous efficiency improvements
